I agree.

I tired hard to like A Perfect Circle, but I never listened to it like I could with Tool. Kind of the same problme of getting into Audio Slave after loving Rage Against the Machine.
although i liked apc at first,i didn't like them as much after they had been out awhile......i still however like alot of their stuff...
as for audioslave.....i think its great,to see what they can really do,and how great of musicians they are...since with an actual singer,they can and have expanded their musical horizons....now, i liked ratm,but after awhile the repetitive vocals gets really old...how many times do we really need to hear the same line over and over again...to me it seemed they were locked in the same old formula for every song with zach on vocals....
Zach was like... the consideration in a legally binding contract. He held the shiz together, like the x-factor. I don't like audioslave, they are boring as shiz! The musicians are obviously talented, but I don't think it is fair at all to call zach's vocals repetitive. Anyhow..

I like Audio Slaves first album, but Morello seems to have a severe lack of, whats the word, electic-ness with his riffs. Everyone of them, going back to the first Rage cd sound like a reworked version of the previous riff. And the "hey I can make all kinds of crazy sounds with my guitar" solos really get old after a while.
Getting back on topic, I really like the new Tool cd. One of their best IMO, probably on par with Lateralus, but not quite up there with Aenema.

Lucky bastage!
TOOL is one of two bands that I would pay a large sum of money to see live.
Enjoy the show!

Personally, I think anyone that spends that kind of money on a concert ticket is a tool themselves. But I'm poor and that's just my opinion.

Expensive? Yes.
But for a passionate fan, seeing TOOL live is unlike anything else and you can't put a price tag on it.

See... I'm thinking $66 isn't that bad...
Venues are expensive around here. Your average cheap seat ticket is well into the $40 range, with prices spiking up to over $300 for certain acts.

And I think that's just plain insane! Personally, I'm happy enough waiting for the freeview event on DirecTV. Of course, I'm not a huge music fan. I'll listen to music, but I don't really care about seeing the live performances. Just my preference, mind you.
 Personally, I'd rather spend the $300 on hookers and booze. I have more fun, I'm more relaxed when it's over, and if I'm really unlucky, I have something to show for my $$ after it's over! AHHHhahahaha!
