How does Maynard J. Keenan find the time? I do my mediocre 4 hour show every day; eat; find a few minutes for private time (torturing the toilet); get in maybe one episode of a favorite TV show; and harass the girlfriend until she tells me it's time to go. Day=Gone.

If I've said it once,I've said it a million times, I love TOOL. Maynard is a genius and may be one of the greatest front men of all time (if you can call him a "front man" nowadays). But while we all wait with bated breath for a new Tool album, I found this gem of a concert from 1

Supposedly, allegedly...we WILL have new Tool in hand on May 22nd (or May 15th), just in time for the Apocalypse. How do I know this?

Well, it looks like I called this one (subtle pat on the back). I've been saying since early last year that I expected a new Tool album by last this year/early 2013...and Tool drummer Danny Carey has vindicated me!

All indications point to a new Tool album...either late this year or early 2013. But before they get back to work on the project we all are chomping at the bit for, there are other things Maynard and the boys have to deal with.

With the various members involved in God knows how many projects - not to mention writing, demoing, and recording new material for the next Tool album - how Maynard and his gang of merry men found time to do a month log winter tour is beyond me. But, I'm glad they did, for selfish reasons...
