no i dont have anything TO throw away...i downloaded the whole thing a month ago...and im not really speaking on the physicalities of ownership...just when i think tool, i will not bother to think of this album.


p.s. The Dude you didnt know maynards mom...why do you care? i think you're missing the point and MISSION of music...and that is to take it to reflect on yourself and apply it where neccessary...you should mourn someone you KNOW, not someone you never will...

fucking sheep, i swear to god

i just got back yesterday from seeing them in philadelphia at the tower theater.

maynard was sick, the sound sucked, the setlist sucked, and my seat sucked, but i still enjoyed it.

jambi and right in two are amazing live. rosetta stoned isn't.

5/19/2006 7:58:03 PM

I think the CD is pretty good. Obviously not Lateralus or AEnema, but in my opinion it almost seems like it was intended for a different purposed than the other CDs. Track 1 fits with the feel of the last two albums but the rest feels different to me. All in all, to me a sub par Tool album is better than almost anything else today.

so fuckin what if i didnt know his mom, i know her story and i feel for her
there's many people that I never personally met but i was affected by their death
you don't have to know someone to be affected by his/her death
especially in this case when the reason for judith maries death is similar to someone in my family
i can mourn anyone and i can wish anyone to rest in peace

fucking insensitive bastard, i swear to god

5/20/2006 5:10:39 PM

^^ I'm so jealous
i logged on ticketmaster 30 minutes after the show in Boston went on sale and it was sold out
and i'd have to pay liek $300 for a ticket now

5/20/2006 5:12:27 PM

so i just read this on another board:

Quote :

""If you burn both Viginti Tres followed by Wings for marie .. Then, play that track as one with 10,000 days as another track and play both at the same time, Both Wings for Marie AND 10,000 days sync ! It is incredible ! It is like an 8 piece band but it all FLOWS ! It flows like one song.. It is the most unique and incredible thing I have ever heard in my life.. BadA$$ ! The vocals, drums, the guitar riffs, everything flows ! Both songs get heavy at the same point at 9 minutes and 14 seconds in, it is magical ! This band synched tracks ! They synched them in testament to Maynard's mother passing to sound like an 8 piece band.. The vocals wisp back and forth almost like a conversation during the sync.. It's UNREAL ! Tool meant these tracks to synch.. If you look at the track times, "10,000 days" is 11 mins and 13 seconds long.. When you add the track times of "Viginti Tres" and "Wings for Marie" it adds up to 11:13 as well.. Look at the album cover ! There are 3 faces with one in the front.. This SICK band meant for all three tracks to play as one song for the self-title track "10,000 days" . Freaky !! By the way, "Viginti Tres" means the number 23 in Latin . 23 is the number of synchronicity . And nothing is more synchronous than hearing the tracks mixed as I described .. Everything Tool writes is for a reason. These aren't merely interludes and fillers this band puts between songs. All their tracks have a meaning and there's a reason why they are there .. They are truly a one of a kind band like no other..." "

heres a yousendit link with the songs already synced up. despite how incredibly gay this guy sounds from his post, im interested to see how it sounds. im downloading it now. BadA$$ !

5/21/2006 7:24:04 PM

eh, im dissappointed again.

...i dont think it synchs up as well as that guys does.

how do you run it...its a .flac file

5/21/2006 8:13:16 PM

Either download a flac plugin for winamp or play it using VLC.

5/21/2006 8:24:31 PM

I had a buddy who went to the Boston show last night
my buddy told me that maynard said "See you in the fall" or something that hinted towards another US tour in the fall
sounds like there will be another US tour before the year is over
this time i'm gonna be at a ticketmaster outlet an hour before they go on sale

5/22/2006 12:41:00 PM

^ 8 week arena tour starting in august

and there will be about 10x's as many tickets for each show.

holy christ! ive finally been called smug! shit! this is awesome.

in all seriousness, im not being smug...im just stating my opinion. i dont think its so extreme as you preceive. i was only an asshole to The Dude because he's asking for it...he's two steps away from sucking maynards dick and fucking his mother's corpse.

5/22/2006 11:07:28 PM

Your denial is beneath you, and thanks to the use of hallucinogenic drugs, I see through you.

btw... "maynards dick" is a funny song

this album was printed outside of kings mountain nc


in case you care

5/25/2006 8:20:50 PM

jesus people this album is so much better then lateralus and calling it top heavy is rediculous when right in two is the best song on the cd

5/27/2006 1:22:21 AM

honestly i really liked it

i'd say like their second best that i have heard

5/27/2006 3:57:35 AM

Ya know, I have not listened to this cd yet, nor do I have any desire to. I think Tool is an overrated band. They are great musicians, but the music bores me. Just something that has never really clicked with me I suppose.

5/27/2006 4:02:19 AM

do shrooms and listen to them

your life will change forever

At least this is an honest opinion from somebody who has good taste in music. You might not prefer their style/sound, but you realize they produce good music and they're great musicians. People that claim otherwise either know absolutely nothing about music, or love to be a contrarian.

the bongo solo at the end of right in two is amazing
definitely one of the best songs on the CD

if the music bored you I'd say you were prob just listening to lateralus, try aenima or undertow

Quote :

yep I give undertow 4/5 stars, aenima5/5 stars, lateralus 3/5 stars, and 10k 4.5/5 stars

bttt... tour dates are slowly being announced for the US arena tour and the first shows start going on sale saturday.

6/23/2006 12:20:42 AM

One of the last shows I heard about around here, in Greensboro I think it was, I heard Maynard played the entire show with his back to the audience

6/23/2006 8:45:46 AM

^that was his shtick for the lateralus tour.

They played w/o lights on them for almost the entire set. There was so much else going on onstage it didn't matter.


if you say the music of Lateralus bored you, you are a sucker. Musically, it is a masterpiece. The lyrics maybe not so much.

6/23/2006 9:06:36 AM

^^^where are you finding this info?

post the dates adn cities if you can find them
i need to get up early tomorrow so i can buy tickets

[Edited on June 23, 2006 at 9:15 AM. Reason : nvm]

6/23/2006 9:15:19 AM

I never said lateralus bored me

6/23/2006 9:33:32 AM

^^ that's right, they've all been announced in the past week or so except for the san diego show. So i would expect a lot more in the next week or two.

I was at that show, it was in winston-salem. And he played with his back to the crowd until the last 2 songs or so. It was a great show though. And like someone said there is so much stuff going on that if you just watched them you would miss a lot. And they were mostly in the dark anyway. The only one I really have any desire to watch is Danny, I mean I know they can play their instruments, and watching someone play a tool song on guitar isn't really that exciting. Watching danny carey go apeshit on the drums his however. And they all just sort of stand in their place, with some occasional rocking back and forth. They are not the show so much as their music coupled with the visuals.

6/23/2006 9:35:23 AM

rjrumfel: that comment wasn't directed at you.

^I concur. I think the visuals at their shows are great, the only time I ever actually watch the band is when I watch Danny. He is just sick. I remember at the Lateralus tour him going completely apeshit on his kit, drumsticks would occasionally fly up into the air (guess he lost his grip), and he would pull another one out from between his legs without missing a note. Impressive.

Winston-Salem in 02 or 03, cant remember which, I was there though, he turned around on the last song, but had a black stripe over his face.
