Was at the show tonight at Wells and it was ******* amazing!
Did anyone else catch the opening band? What was up with the horse that looked straight out of a third grade play?
I kinda just assumed that was just some weirdness that Maynard came up with to make people say, "wtf?". Didn't seem there was any purpose to it. I almost felt bad for the opener when they fumbled out there for no apparent reason. It almost seemed maybe like light tour hazing of some sort, if that's even a thing.
Ha! You may be right. Even funnier if it was Tool band members doing it.
I found this on YouTube today.
Yeah, I thought about doing that myself, and then I listened to the first minute of the first song in that Youtube video and changed my mind. It wasn't quite living up to the memory of how good I thought they sounded live, so I decided not to sully that memory. Not that the recording sounds terrible, just not quite how I remembered it. Particularly, Maynard's vocals.I guess I will be reliving the concert today

The "no photo/video recording" rule for the show made that pretty much impossible. There was a guy in the section next to where I was sitting who got pounced on by security within probably 10 seconds of pulling out his phone to record. He tried to convince them that he deleted the video, but they kicked him out anyway.Yeah it sounded way better live than the video. I wish the video was actually a video of the concert and not just the songs with images.

on repeat.....
I feel like they wrote a song about this...something something "...sold out long before you ever even heard my name..." something something.Old guy rant: I hate that everything is streaming now. I love Tool and their album booklets were as interesting as the music - a freaking stereoscopic viewer for 10,000 Days, are you kidding me? And now I don't even own a CD player because everybody just wants to sell digital copy. I've loved all of their stuff, but now with the new album I feel like I'll miss out on something if i just download it.
