tool...

This show rocked. Last September I saw tool for the first time in chicago, that also rocked. Tonight was great other than that I wish they would have used more time and played more songs. Notable non-plays were "the pot", "Aenema", and "Parabola". Other than that, everything was perfect.

The crowd wasn't too bad. A lot of douches like at any show, but for the most part pretty cool. During "vicarious" (the last song played) some guy ran up on stage... didn't go to well for him though... I wish this would have happened...

great show overall. tool is the best band in my opinion still goin today. f**k the bullsh*t on the radio... nickleback? filter? death cab? panic at the (gay) disco? no good. Tool is where its at and if you don't realize it, I hope maynard tackles you too.

Nice takedown, dope to see he didn't let it throw him off his performance.

i was hoping no one brought this up.

garbage. at some points when the music was going and there was NO SINGING, I could kind of get into it. There were some cool riffs, most of it all sounded the same though. half the time, the guitar sounded like static mixed with dog poop. the singing was just terrible... I am bias of course seeing how I don't speak japannese (i j/ can not spell that right and I'm getting frustrated) It sounded like she was just talking over music that may or may not have been ok. I couldn't tell because she was talking

.

it sounded like I was watching a bad cartoon.

I thought the show rocked, best visuals at a concert ive ever seen, the first act I didnt think was too bad, but yeah I think I liked it better when they were just jamming and no singing... as for TOOL great stuff as usual, as with everyone I was disappointed it didn't go on longer, but It was definitely worth every penny for those tickets... I really believe I may never see a performance of that caliber musically and visually again.

Unless Tool and Pink Floyd do a show together.

Ha ha, sounds like Melt Banana were in fine form that night. I think the point is for most of the audience to be confused and turned off.

they have such a large catalog of songs now its gotta be difficult to please all. I want to hear them perform every studio album in order in one night. That would be pretty damn cool.

MELT BANANA is Ultimate Awesome. I saw them play with FantÃ´mas in Indy and at Copycat Massacre's last show ever in Bloomington.
