As much as I hate to say it, I'm not sure if I'm going to throw down the 67 bones to attend this. I saw them last time they were in Vancouver, and while definitely good it was not one of my most memorable concert experiences ever as it probably should have been. Given my broke state at the moment I have a feeling I'd be happier using that money on something else like food. Still though, it's Tool... - Tue, 16 Oct 2007 11:56am

I haven't seen Tool before, so I'm going to go.. besides the fact that I won't have rent money.. but this is more important.

I just can't get over the fact that they're coming here...

No one comes here...

Wow. - Tue, 16 Oct 2007 8:30pm

We barely remember who or what came before this precious moment,
We are choosing to be here right now. hold on, stay inside...
This holy reality, this holy experience. choosing to be here in...

This body. this body holding me. be my reminder here that I am not alone in
This body, this body holding me, feeling eternal all this pain is an illusion.

Alive

This holy reality, in this holy experience. choosing to be here in...

This body. this body holding me. be my reminder here that I am not alone in
This body, this body holding me, feeling eternal all this pain is an illusion...
Of what it means to be alive

Swirling round with this familiar parable.
Spinning, weaving round each new experience.
Recognize this as a holy gift and celebrate this
Chance to be alive and breathing
Chance to be alive and breathing.

This body holding me reminds me of my own mortality.
Embrace this moment. remember. we are eternal.
All this pain is an illusion. - Tue, 16 Oct 2007 9:39pm Edited: Tue, 16 Oct 2007 11:37pm

ATTENTION!

If anyone is willing to sell me floor seats, I will pay you 50 bucks more than the ticket price.

Please! I'm begging you. I'm so upset right now.

There were complications with the site. I had floor seats, and then... just wasn't allowed to get them. I don't have a credit card and was going to use someone else's who told me that all the credit info was already stored on the site. They are in Hawaii right now and I have no way to contact them.

As soon as you hear of someone who doesn't want their tickets (hopefully floor) or if you don't want yours or can't go etc etc, please contact me!

Same goes here, if anyone has a single ticket to spare, I will pay handsomely. That's right, that means alot of money. I'm on ebay and craigslist trying to find a ticket right now and it looks like a bunch of yanks bought them up to sell em at a ridicuous price to us unwary canadians.

There oughta ba a law I tellz ya, buy tickets in yer own country.

Back to my main point.....tickets! extra tickets! tickets you bought to go with friends but then they flaked! tickets you bought to sell! Ticket for meeee! (please) - Sat, 20 Oct 2007 12:40pm

I heard you double shot tool at like 7:30 or 8 pm the night of concert for a pair of free tickets to TOOL. That was, in my humble opinion, so cool, scalpers all ready to go home and you gave the people with no cash and no hope of getting a ticket to the show, who were listening and nashing their teeth over missing such a cool edge show an unexpected shot at it. I dug it, it was a cool thing to do, props and all that stuff old farts are not supposed to say. - Thu, 29 Nov 2007 10:55pm

where were you sitting? I was at blue line basically on the left of the stage near the top. And everything came in fine.. clear as day. Best concert so far that i have seen. The lighting and the lasers were freakin nuts and trans am wasnt that bad.. i was really dreading that bad... i cant complain either, my ticket was free - Sun, 2 Dec 2007 7:46am

Id be interested to know what it was that you were expecting trevor?.. Im not gonna say that it was the best concert of my life (been to a few gooders) and im not gonna try and defend the blended muddy sound of the sofa or any arena (imo). but i am gonna say that i was not disappointed in the show. sure i would have written up a different set list.. sure i would have turned up the vocals.. sure i would have loved to see them on the aenima tour when maynard was blue and could really really sing... but for pure entertainment value ive gotta give it to them. from the moment the wandered onto the stage they had my attention. stinkfist and 46&2 really got me psyched after a jumbley jambi?.. both the new songs in the first have.. Jambi and rossetta stoned seemed a little weak.. like they were getting the kinks out or something.. Flood was intense.. the intermission brought out the lazer lights and lots and lots of smoke. lots... when tool came back out they seemed dead on.. the second half was much better than the first (imo).. wings for marie.. 10k days.. great.. great . lateralus was spot on.. the drum off/solo was a nice touch. vicarios the last song is not my favourite recorded song but derinately won me over as a live song. great show victoria behaved very well and I left entertained and satisfied. .. . - Sun, 2 Dec 2007 12:49pm

Jay, I probably would have enjoyed Trans Am, they sounded good from outside in the never ending line up to get cavity searched. - Sun, 2 Dec 2007 1:14pm

trans am was pretty cool.. suffered from the usual opening act sound problems but the crowd seemed to like them which i think helped them. - Sun, 2 Dec 2007 1:16pm
