i have to say that i'm not a big fan of tool's music - but i saw their show at coachella last year, and WOW...it was insane - i have much respect for their musical talents and super visually stimulating show! also, the fans at the 'chella show were awesome - i had no bad experiences at all! ;D

"They won't break me because the desire for freedom, and the freedom of the Irish people, is in my heart. The day will dawn when all the people of Ireland will have the desire for freedom to show. It is then that we will see the rising of the moon."
I am a Tool fan and I am really cool. ;D I went to my first tool show a week ago and had a blast, they have such an awesome energy and a very powerful vibe and the fans are all creeds of people not a stereotypical group of jerks and assholes, I mean come on... Anyhow, the laser show was spectacular and I can't wait to see how they up the ante for bonnaroo. Not to mention their level of psychedelic influence. Trey Anastacio (sp?) said in an interview last year right after Bonnaroo that Tool should be a headliner for this year because and I quote "they are the most psychadelic band out there today". Okay, so don't quote that but it's pretty effin' close... I can't wait.
The interview was in Rolling Stone and your quote is correct.
Lets just say....I'm a petite girly girl.....and I LOVE TOOL!!!! You don't have to worry, I'll try not to knock you out in the mosh pit Get real!! Everybodys just there to have a good time.....I'll be too enthralled with the show to notice a$$holes
I love how there being called the Tool people like there diffrent than us or something ha! My friend showd me pics from a tool concert last night and they look like a bunch of pot smokin stoners to me, i figure they are trying to cram what everyone wants to hear in a 2 hour concert ussually so maybe with this fest they can let lose and show us what there all about!
*i like coconuts, you can break them open they smell like ladies lyin in the sun** *Hell I don't even know where I am** *for now I must sit here and ponder the yonder: The herbivores did well cause their food didn't never run** *We listen, if it feels good We shake** *You made a big impression for a girl of your size, Now I can't get by without you and your big brown eyes.**

I will be the first to admit that I used to be a Tool hater back in the day. Back in high school it seemed to me that only "tools" wore Tool shirts and followed them and whatnot. Fortunately at some point I gave them a chance, and listened with an open mind. I was amazed at the complexity of it all. A few months later I had the chance to see them live, and it only helped the cause. At one point during Parabola, Maynard let out this scream (but it was like he was singing it) that was the most perfect thing I've ever heard. It was one of those moments where you get chills and goosebumps! It was one of those things that is the entire reason that you go to concerts, but doesn't really happen all that often.
Obviously Radiohead changed a few people's opinion last year, I think Tool is poised to do the same this time around.

Just thought I'd share this with the Tool fans........
We just decided to get married at Bonnaroo, Friday night before Tool. Now we can say Tool played our reception!!! Way, way better than any of those rent-a-cover bands that most get for their reception. The only thing that would make it better is if the band actually knew, lol!

I'll drink to that...congrats.
Maybe i can talk my wife into renewing our vows, not that we need to or anything, just so we can say the same thing!

ooooo that sounds really cool... maybe I can talk JM into it??
I'm a longtime deadhead/jamband fan and have also been onboard the tool bandwagon since undertow. I think they will fit into this scene beautifully, and while it does suprise me that they are playing bonnaroo its a pleasent, beside myself suprise. I wish danny carrey would join tortoise onstage for a jam. i hear he shares a common interest in collecting old synthesizers with one of the bandmembers of tortoise.

Well they will probably be there by that Thursday since they are coming from NC on the 13th, so there may be a glimpse of them running around. Also here is hoping that they hear how many people want them to throw down the Tool set of a lifetime, and like it has been stated before, the Roo grounds can do some strange things to people and hopefully they feel it for there show.
"That's the big thing about education. People can be book smart, but not really intelligent about anything else. A lot of times they just taking in all this information and regurgitate it. It's much more important to process it and personalize it. To apply it to your world, to your life. You have to walk the walk, or you can't really report about it honestly."
