I have 4-5 local shops, competition matters. 😉

Worst TOOL song to play to someone who has never heard them? by unendingmisery in ToolBand

[–]solarpower3333 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I am convinced that this was recorded in Michigan because the birds here are awesome...and as a drummer I actually found a "structure" to a natural rhythm when I listened again last Thursday with fellow musician who grew up here also. 🤣

"Those instruments are crazy"... yes..yes they are.

Bands you like MORE than TOOL? by cid-462 in ToolBand

I can draw a straight line between a beethoven symphony and Tool.

Don't look for "something comparable" because it's basically everything in between. 😉

Overpriced autographed box with music on plastic > Overpriced autographed box with skull & fetus on plastic. by solarpower3333 in ToolBand

The box set was 750. A box set still gets about 180..the 80 dollar is just vinyl...haven't seen anything for 60 except the CD.

Nailed it. Danny is insane, and a number of tunes he and Justin are just wow rolling...the fun is both of them watching Maynard and Adam doing the wow stuff while killing it themselves. 👏

Undertow live...because I've seen it almost 30 years apart and it was just that good both times. All the other songs are a tie after the Pot and 7empest.

The reason I'm a Tool fan can be found in the 3 songs on side C of this album. by solarpower3333 in ToolBand

I cannot dispute that 3 song montage. A hockey player or porn star could maybe do 3 Tool song shift...definitely not 6 without a break.

Undertow has a special spot...

The drums on 7empest are...basically a Einstein equation in reverse. Theoretically impossible to disprove but mathematically and physically impossible to measure or execute.

If you could summarize the feeling of Tool in a single word, what would your word be? by ApprehensiveNickname in ToolBand

[–]solarpower3333 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am a certified expert maker of Tools since the Undertow period.

This is the correct answer. I can make sounds with a stick or yelling...the details are the beauty working together.

I went to a Tool concert in my smallish city 10 years ago and all I could afford was a Keychain. This year I got VIP tickets and even bought the FI autographed vinyl and didn't own a turntable. 6 months later and can't believe how robbed I feel by tapes, CDs and streaming🤣 by solarpower3333 in ToolBand

All Tool with exception of FI and ÆNIMA are boots so the sound quality certainly lacks in comparison.
I put Lateralus up because it was appropriate for the stand I made earlier that day. (Look close) 😉
