Really, Tool and Cheese are not that difforent. Okay, maybe they are, but it is possible to love them both, I do. Besides, has anyone else noticed that the art work from Tool's Lateralus and String Cheese's Untying the Not is really similar, same artist I think. And a lot of the themes in their music are really similar too. They both blow my mind, and I'm sure I'll manage to see them both.

You are corect, under music covers that he has done that is one of the main ones. I forgot how many others he has done but there have been a few others though. His website shows all or most of his artwork. So go take a look at his website: www.alexgrey.com
"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."
I don't appreciate that comment either. Just because you like one band does not mean you don't like another. I personally will not be missing cheese because they are breaking up in their current form after this summer and bonnaroo will be one show they will put everything into. They are a big contribution to music today whether you realize it or not. they started a label that has introduced many bands to the world (some even at bonnaroo) and created a ticket company just to bring music to people without the ticketmaster fees and bull nuts. They bring countless forms of music together. You may not appreciate one band but don't act like they don't mean nuts. I will be going to tool along with most of bonnaroo at that time but will also stick flowers in my ass and see cheese. Think about who you are making fun.
Well, they don't mean nuts to me, and I've actually given them a chance, have been to 3 of their shows. The wussbags I'm referring to are the ones who are so dumbfounded by the idea of psychedelic metal that they actually PLAN on skipping Tool. Really, I feel sorry for them. Same deal with the people who skipped Radiohead last year because they didn't feel that they "fit in" to what bonnaroo should be in their minds. Music is awesome. You're not going to like all of it. You're not going to understand any of it unless you put yourself in a position to be immersed. Anyone who has only listened to Tool should go see them, just to be able to see what every Tool freak is blathering on about.

HA, why would you go to 3 of their shows if you didn't like the first? Some people like one style they play but not the others. It depends where they play also. Bonnaroo will have crazy jams where as some country town might be more bluegrass. They play so many styles it's hard to get a feel of them .....even after 3 nights. I saw them at the fillmore in denver and fell in love after that. I will be at tool. I waited all day last year for radiohead. I like many types of music. But just because I like SCI means nothing in terms of predicting what I will do for other bands. Just don't generalize. You can make fun of certain people but not the whole population. Anyway, I will see you at TOOL! haha

Hey, I fell in love with um at the Fillmore too. What show were you at? I think I was there in '04 and '05
yeah I was there at least in '05. maybe '04...not sure. I remember it started snowing one night. I stayed at the ramada I think and it was full of heads. It was one weekend I will remember the rest of my life for sure.
HEADED TO BONNAROO!!!!
