Let's keep it rolling with one of the best recordings in the history of music, TOOL opening a private show to a bunch of scientologists with the song Intolerance while they all go a lot heavier than you'd expect.
The way Maynard just randomly picks someone to stare at throughout the entirety of a song will never not be both ****ing terrifying and amazing.
Maynard says in an interview that he was flashed a gun by one of the leaders at one point and apparently said to the guy, "if you do anything stupid, I'll start a ****ing riot".
Tool is amazing.
They were not good at all when I saw them last summer. Nothing about the show made me feel like I was actually "seeing" them instead of just chilling in my room listening to them.
I think they said maybe 50 words outside of their sings in their 1.5h set.
Yeah, Maynard is notoriously disconnected from the audience, and the other guys have no real reason to interact. I remember in college when they toured and played at the Sun Dome. Maynard literally spent the whole concert behind a backlit screen so all that ever seen of him was his silhouette.
we are closer to history than we realize sometimes. the oldest person who i was close to was my grandmother, born in 1911. and all the adults in her life(when she was a kid) were born in the 1800s
and my mom(still alive) was born in 1943. all her grandparents were born in the 1800s
My grandmother will turn 104 this year. Born in 1920. I like asking her things like if she knew Lincoln and was George Washington nice to her? Did she have to have a driver's license to drive her horse and buggy?
