Pushit Tool Live

[DiamondDJandSound]

I can understand a newcomer to Tool not understanding them live. Wondering why they aren't like other bands, showing the singer front and center, under spot lights. Maynard has always said his vocals are merely an element, among many others, in their songs. He said if you focus on him alone, you lose the feeling of the song. That is why he his in the background, often "hidden" almost.

[boxeater406]

@DiamondDJandSound that's beautiful about what Maynard said about his part in their music. he accomplishes that perfectly, just like they all do. i think it's epic Maynard blends into the shadows on stage. TOOL is soo fucking good.

[DiamondDJandSound]

@boxeater406 I don't think there will be a band like them again. And that's alright with me.

[iheartjerome1]

Same here- I had no clue about the light show I couldn't see from the floor~ until you tube!

[iwatch420]

who in the hell disliked this video?

[EvilxAngelx92]

This is sexyyy

[ozabobododo]

40,347 views and counting, with 0 dislikes! Proof that TOOL fans are intelligent...

[masterexploder112255]

best fucking light shows ever!!!

[skypup77]

I was in the second row for this tour, and it might sound crazy but I kinda wish I hadnt been, the whole time I had no idea there were projections on the stage because we were too close to see them. The latest tour was by far the best, in the 10 or so times ive seen them live it was the first time id ever heard them play Third Eye, and it was well worth the wait.

[iwatch420]

@skypup77 I am so jealous! whenever tool is in town, they are sold out same day, so i can never go.

[skypup77]

@iwatch420 If youre online right when they go on sale you will always get tickets. If it sells out you could always get tickets on craigslist.

[tmbstnman]

This is proof positive how awesome Tool is live

[Redzombie13]

TOOL is GOD!!!

[kingTOOL]

eyes always bug out to these visual even back during aenima tour

[epiphysis]

WOW IS RIGHT LOOK at their STAGE perfect execution of this song.

[eekj22]

WOW!

[justinlover713]

Not that I'm complaining but I wish they would have played this when I saw them last summer, definitely one of their best songs

[mralex2387]

es la mejor banda de rock del mundo

[Bl0odVomit]

They really need to play this song more live. Also, they should go back to using the projection from the AEniima tour days, with the jumping tribals

[blub0z]

I really hope tool comes back invigorated because this band is too damn good live to fade away.

[laudypapa1]

they are too good to fade period. :)

[marco8505]

best performance ever! no words...

[joelt420]

Epic song!

[casey09able]

masterpiece i will never get tired of TOOL hearing this song live is pure as it gets i would compare this live with reflection live

[machds42]

whenever i am feeling down i watch this video on youtube. it is fucking bliss.

I would pay $100 just to see Tool perform Pushit or Third Eye live in person again.

[Tennisers]

I would pay anything literally

[grr915]

@machds42 I know you posted this a year ago, but hopefully you made it to a show this time around? They have been playing Third Eye and Intolerance

[tijbajmex]

@machds42 this tour they are opening with third eye at least san diego and los angeles where i was.

[TheBigPrettyOne]

@machds42  i concur. push it live is sick. third eye live is outta this world!

[floorguy19]

listen to justin beat the shit out of that bass line 3:49-4:10. absolutely epic!!!!

[christopherg8106]

uhh...WOW!

[gray786]

maynard just nails it!

[Madness320]

front row man. so fucking good

[DongleKumquat]

was this in orlando

[ozabobododo]

Yes. I was there and Jacksonville the next show. I almost shit because I had been looking at the prior playlists. They did Right In Two in Jacksonville which was great. I couldn't make it to Tampa, i was pissed when I saw they had done The Pot. Push It is my favorite TOOL song so I can't complain. I had eaten a musroom bean casserole and my girlfriend said, "I hope they play Push It". I said don't get your hopes up when Adam broke into it like he could hear me, trippy. ORL, very lucky!

[ozabobododo]

Sorry u asked a year ago but yes this was in Orlando. I was there and my girlfriend said she wanted them to play it. I told her there was no way cuz I saw the previous setlists. We went crazy when it started, Orlando was the only city to get it I think.

[travispinn]

no san diego as well

[ozabobododo]

Sorry, hence "I think". Obviously I wasn't at every show but I did check most of the setlists. Guess I didn't see San Diego.

[lared0tx]

they sucked in san antonio and corpus ! i love them but it was bad

[mrmanback]

they were great in san antone and corpus... each show had a 20min long lateralus with pat mastellotto and trey gunn.. good stuff.. plus the intro to the san antonio show with danny and the sling was great

[looneyg25]

wow! TOOL songs are amazing...seriously!

every song has a meaning.MJK just has this beautiful voice! that wow! i cant even describe it.he can sing anything!his story fascinates me so much.he has a gift like no other.every song is awesome and they hit me so hard. i so wish one day i get to see them live when they go on tour again!i swear ill die there!ill be there for sure =]

[austinfong]

i am so jealous

[machds42]

i can honestly say I screamed like a girl the first time I ever heard this song live.

flawless, one of the best, if not the best Tool song of all time.

This and Third Eye just floor me everytime

[conanthetroutman]

anyone know how they get the image on the stage floor? they hardly have a giant screen for a stage and it done look like its projected on, from above anyway

[jrstew]

the image on the floor is projected down onto a white canvas thats draped across the whole stage. the white canvas acts like a projector screen basically.

[QuantumDelusion]

I assumed it was projected upward, from underneath the stage.

[jrstew]

thats why i posted, to clear up any misconceptions.

[tijbajmex]

@jrstew where is this?? i was in san diego the 07 tour and they played pushit the second concert not the first one. that is why i wonder.

[deftox]

best band in the world. wow!!!!!

[ozabobododo]

My girlfriend just got done saying, "I wish they would play push it"! I told her that there was no way they were going to because I had been looking at the previous playlists. Two seconds later Adam starts the riff and I almost shat myself! Thank you TOOL for always bringing it when you play Orlando! Best band ever, live or studio and it's not even close...

[bassmangeekz]

Lucky bastards xD I still pray for the day that Tool plays Pushit in Portugal!! I'm sure it would be a one of a kind journey!

[mrzero21]

what was the intro?

[dball1324]

the intro wasnt bad or anything its just another 2-3 minutes so then he wouldve had to make another part that was like 2 min long instead of just posting the whole song.

[nancee0323]

i am an avid TOOL fan. i have my own interpretation of this song. This one is my favorite! Please share Your take on this song. i am curious to know what You think. Thanks.

[dball1324]

Well for one thing its definately my favorite song of the 90s by tool no doubt. All of the songs that they make that are lengthy I truely enjoy more than any others. Thats why my favorite album is lateralus because of the length of each song and the effects they have on their style. Their style is amazing and this song proves the in depth skill they have in making fantastic music. When I listen to this song its almost like I'm in another world..no one but tool has done that for me.

[nancee0323]

I agree Lateralus is one of my favorites as well! I can get lost in TOOL for hours, but what is your interpretation of this actual song? I have my own, but was just curious to see if anyone else shared my point of view. If you have time. Thanks!

[dball1324]

My take on this song...its like a journey in my eyes. In the beginning I can picture someone walking through a long journey, and theres a tough life this person is experiencing. It sets me in another world it really does. This is truely one of their greater works and they experiment with so many different sounds and techniques it really amazes me the talent that each musician holds.

[nancee0323]

See I may listen to a TOOL song, and think "I finally realized the meaning of this song", but there are so many ways that people can interpret their songs. You can kind of "mold" the songs to whatever is going on in your life "at that moment."

[dball1324]

Yea tool is really the only band that could make someone cry AND make you want to rip someones head off at the same time in the same song haha but seriously..they have a style like no other. They are truely a great band that we have the pleasure of experiencing and listening to.

[nancee0323]

Thanks for sharing your thoughts dball!Before I move on to another song, I would love to know what your favorite T song ever is. If you have time!

[dball1324]

favorite...wow..thats like asking a monkey what his favorite banana is..but i can give you my favorite(s) off of every album. I will tell you that I do like more of their popular songs like the Pot and Vicarious and Schism etc. but There are many more that give the greatness of a true tool song. Opitae: Jerk-Off and Hush, Undertow: Flood and Bottom, AEnima: Pushit and Third Eye, Lateralis: Ticks & Leeches The Grudge, Triad and The Patient. 10,000 Days Right in two 10000 Days and Rosetta Stoned.

[papagenu07]

it's called poetry

[syn5643]

Maynards suprisingly out in the open for this show, he's usually even farther back in.

[thehoot715]

This song live is unbelievable. They busted it out of nowhere in Duluth, GA and it sounded awesome. It was strange, on their 07 tour there were a lot of complaints that the vocal mix was too low at a lot of shows. But at every show they played Pushit the vocals were apparently much better throughout the whole show. Wonder why they played it at certain venues and what they based it on? Maynards voice that day? crowd behavior? Venue?

[syn5643]

I have that CD live, they played SOOO much synth on that stage rather than the show I saw in STL. Maynards like " hu, whats up georgia" ?

[thehoot715]

You have it? Any way you would be willing to send me a copy somehow if we can work it out?

[syn5643]

Not a problem man, I'm super busy right now, recording a CD with my bass player so give me a week or so and I'll email it to you.

[serge809]

dude id totally want to get up on that if its not a problem

[godofdrumsEXR]

I saw them play this in Orlando, AMAZING!

[EarlMcCrackin]

Damn we didn't get it in SF. Flood was sweet though.

[shyroii]

05.43Adam is human

xDDDDDDD

[EarlMcCrackin]

Adam seems to screw up the most when they play. But he still rules, end of story.

[syn5643]

well when you don't move out of the same position for the whole show your arms lock up and you die hahaha, I love you ADAM FUCKING JONES!

[EnertainUs]

ahhhhhhhhhhhhh get out of my head

[fromundacheezball]

when the fuck is this band going to put out a live dvd???

[bubba4gbp]

no kidding. that would be awesome too cause then the footage would be high quality as well.

[VinDieselFiesta]

best vid of pushit in '07 i've seen so far. amazing. mindblowing. hope they play it in denver next week or casper two days later, i'll be at both :)

[POWERAGE1POW]

They better play this shit in S.F. ON 12-11-07.

[EarlMcCrackin]

Yeah, considering I'm going to have to pay some scumbag scalper $120 just to get in.

[mjkrules]

Dont bitch. It's worth more than that....

[EarlMcCrackin]

Not when the money isn't even going to the band.

[Ahrcsnave]

"PUSHIT! WAAAAAAHHHHH!!!"

Lol, who screamed that? I laughed so hard...

[gimpy154]

I would have shat a brick if they would have played this when I saw them May 19th. My favorite Tool Song by far, just so so amazing. "If when I say I might fade like a sigh if I staaaaaay.' 'You minimize my movement anyyywayyy.' 'I must persuade you another wayyyyyy." Beautiful.

[SydBareass]

Saw them in Tampa two days before this, then saw this show, and at Bonnaroo. Orlando was the only Pushit. My favorite song from Aenima! I freakin blew a load here!!!

[GentleRain420]

i love tool

[beefumz]

oh my god oh my god oh my god oh my god oh my god oh my god

[TheBoss3334]

all I can say is...Holy Fucking Shit!

[analdisco69]

AAAHHHH YOU CUT OUT THE VERY END!!! I wanted the hear how apeshit the crowd went =[

[dopplershift7]

"PUSHIIITTT!!!" I would have done the same thing.

[VinDieselFiesta]

absolutely amazing. fucking mindblowing. definetly a straight up mind fuck.

[yayforames]

they played this at the tweeter in MA, it was out of nowhere, it fucking ruled house though

[Lilalusalva]

the climax of this song is... " sLIPPING BACK INTO THE GAP AGAIN", thats the point of that live song... crawling on my own skin

[Necridus129]

Orgasmic is right... And when he says "One must persuade you another W-a-y!!!!" Yeah thats the climax of it .... OMGAH ttol is f'in awesome

[3Ballers]

that guy that yelled in the beginning was priceless...

"PUSHIT!!!!"

[stokez]

I simply adore them.

I wish I get to see them live, just once.

[stinkfist87]

orgasmic

[fallout1234567]

man i wish they would have played this at the shows i went to I never got the chance to hear aenema and pushit got the pot tho so that was awsome took 3 shows that i went to til they broke that out lol but w/e they are by far the best band ever in my opinion.

[grambo22]

I must persuade you another waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay

[MJKwillOWNuALL]

Saw them three times this summer, richmond, youngstown, and reading...all FUCKING AMAZING

[llpatll2]

i was at Richmond! Pushit destroyed there,

[MJKwillOWNuALL]

FUCKIN A!

[theoneandonlyMJK]

i saw tool twice this past tour and both times i was blown away especially when they played pushit

[Shortstop4life]

i dont remember what song it was, but when he played at the gorge there was a giant eye projected on the stage that looked around at the audience, its was awesome!

[tooldrt]

holy shit!

[lateralus55]

This is the reason I saw seven shows this tour. These guys have to put more into a live show than anyone out there. Amazing!

[vdMucky]

In the beginning of the 10,000 Days tour, Maynards voice was quite rusty. I noticed it got better and better all the time, but this... it's awesome, he really nailed that song! So here I am, hoping they play Pushit at Pukkelpop. :)

[shabman23]

oh wow this is from this on-going tour. Great great post, thanks.

[imateenageidiot]

pushit! woooooo!

great video!

[jls25]

very nice stage

[outerentity]

How hard is it to keep it in focus though.

[outerentity]

Look at the freakin floor that is unreal, I have never seen that before. How original can these guys get. Next step is holograms I say. Cant wait for the future glad of the past.

[2speedfixed]

the images of people "walking" on stage are extremely fitting

[DanRules066]

lol, i like that kid in the beginning who shouts "PUSHIT!!!! WOOOOOO!!!!". awesome video, tool is great.

[Incongruent]

[2speedfixed]
