Went and saw Tool for the first time tonight. I like the band but haven't been a real big fan. Some of the stuff kinda drones on too much for me.
But, I must say the show was one of the best I've seen. They are totally unique and the mixture visual elements with the up and down of moods was fantastic. I've never seen a band where the singer is a silhouette to a video backdrop instead of being up front and I actually found it kind of refreshing. There wasn't all that "HELLO NEW YORK!" talk between songs... they just went up there and did a performance and that's exactly what it felt like... Not a bunch of a songs but an overall performance from start to finish.
Also I never realized how damn kickass the drummer was until tonight.
I'll definitely go see them again.
