Ok
Sorry I haven't posted in a while. Things have been kinda crazy between my birthday and the Tool concert.
Birthday was pretty good. I should be getting my new computer later this week.
Tool concert... oh good god.
Fucking amazing. This was my tenth, and it was #2; second only to my first one. The setlist was as follows:
Stinkfist
Forty Six & 2
Jambi
Schism
Eon Blue Apocalypse
The Patient
Lost Keys
Rosetta Stoned
Sober
Lateralus
Vicarious
Ænema
For the most part I was very pleased with the playlist. I liked the fact that they played 46&2, it is arguably their best song... but that is definately a tough call to make. We also got to see Sober which was the oldest song they played at any of their shows on this mini-tour. I really wanted to see them play The Pot; they played at many of the other shows on this tour, but not for me damnit. If I continue to talk about the show it will bump all the other posts off the page, so I'll refrain for now. The thing that pissed me off the most came at the very end of the show. After the last song they stand on the stage and throw various "souveniers" into the crowd. Two of these items were drum-heads from Danny's kit. Adam threw one into the crowd and was caught by my friend, Aaron. I've been to 10 shows and gotten nothing (except amazing experiences) he has gone to one, and he left with an autographed drum-head. Fucking fuck. Nonetheless it was a great show and the three tool virgins I brought all seemed to really enjoy the show and the experience, which is what I had hoped for.
On the blog side of things, I have a bunch of links lined up, but I am at work so you'll have to wait until I get home later tonight.
Under a dead ohio sky
Eleven has been and will be waiting
