  • As much as I love tool, I'm quite disappointed to hear this from Maynard.

  • @JFields1231 dont pay polititions. Problem solve.

  • Nader.

  • RON PAUL 2012

  • He keeps to himself. Others dont understand music, Come back to the northwest(CDA, ID) If the mayans are right better have a plan. I don't believe in calenders. This is my ploy. There is no arena. A resort, a lake,

  • Look moron, I totally get the lyrics(even ones about his kid)- I was simply stating that he is getting off on being a concieted arrogant money grubbing fuck. YES he has an awesome voice/band but so did Petrus T. Steele of Type O Negative and he certainly wasnt such an asshole! Now if youll exuse me its back to the porn LOL.

  • may-nerd being a strap-on pimp. he really thinks he is something sooo special, pusifer is a studio waste of time and he knows its a joke, he enjoys rippin you idiots off who buy that shit. Learn to swim and fuck the overblown bullshit mathmatical drug induced immortal bullshit tool trip!

  • @mazzaroth7 Sure, that's why it takes over 5 years for Tool to release a new album, it's all for the money! Because in today's music industry you can get the most money out of your work by taking ages to make your album, that's why every popstar releases 5 to 6 singles a year... If you're frustrated that you can't grasp the messages woven into Maynard's music, please work it away with some internet porn or something not on a video that is about Maynard.

    Thank you, come again.

  • @mazzaroth7 The album is 12$. And it's good music. I don't see a problem with putting 12$ down for something that I'll use well and often. Maybe you should stop being so fucking cheap. Or better yet, maybe you should start listening to bands you like instead of picking them apart piece by piece and getting to the bottom line of what they're 'all about'. If you did that with every band, you wouldn't be listening to a lot of music.

    And if you're saying Tool sucks, we don't meet eye to eye.

  • soo glad how mature and well spoken maynard had become.

  • If you don't vote you are not involved in a crime. Politics = crime. Despite the respect I have for Mr Maynard this speech I treat as an overreacting.

  • lol people are so stupid ...oh he sold out!! ...for him to sellout he would have to have said its time for change vote obama or vote for so and so...he as asked his opinion and gave it in a very smart and well spoken way while still getting his little fuck you in to the govt..

  • heres hoping the world boots your worthless ass in the throat ....sell out yeah? yeah hes very mainstream isnt he? what a fucking simple mind you have ..tool as a band takes years and years to record their music the fact is they have to be inspired first before they write . feel free to get in the tub.. turn on the water just slightly and draw a line across ur wrists with a razor blade....

  • heres to hoping the rest of the tool boots this retard out and gets someone else so they can put out the new album.

    this shmuck keeps wasting time on wine, puscifer, making shitty movies (sellout much?) while rest of the band is writing music.

  • Maynard should stick to his day job. It's so ridiculous watching celebrities talking about politics and the like. It's almost PAINFUL.

  • wow, the insanity. The way he's dressed reminds me of how the bass/vox from primus looks.

  • maynard be trollin

  • What a classy man

  • Maynard is a beast. Tool is amazing

  • VOTE FOR THE SAME OLD BLOODLINES GET THE SAME OLD rOBBING THE POOR TO PAY FOR THE RICH'S PRIMERIB AND SWEEPSTAKES BET SY BET YOU LET THE WRONG ONE IN AGAIN AND HOLOCAUST FALLS ON AMERICA FOR BEING BLIND DEAF DUMB I NEED TO HELP THE EARTH AND HER CHILDREN SO GET OUT OF THE WAY I MADE MY CHOICE STOP DECEIT

  • Holy shit i want some of his wine!!!

  • What is the song at the end ?

  • @snifferrs Blue off the Thirteenth Step by APC

  • "If you dont vote youre giving up youre right to direct how youre manipulated" How do they not know hes being sardastic LOL

  • MAMÓOOOOOOOON.... Ö !!! MAMÓOOOOOOOON.... Ö !!! MAMÓOOOOOOON.... Ö !!! FUNKY MOROOOOOOOOON!!!

  • Do bad that americas democracy are corrupted.

  • @Abbe235 thats because its not supposed to be a democracy, its a republic.....fucking democrats.

  • Maynard needs to run I can't imagine how great this country would be with him as president.

  • "To direct how you're manipulated, or what's best for you"

  • I wanna have ur baby, Maynard!

  • This is just so fucking fantastic xD

  • Ha! Funny

  • Did he sell himself out? Like so many other Musicians in the biz..What happened to Maynard from Tool and A Perfect Circle?

  • Why the fuck is Maynard dressed like a pimp?

  • @JM13121 yea. wtf

  • @JM13121 Cause he is a pimp in his own enlightened way

  • @JM13121 I guess that's what he wanted to do on that particular day.

  • I Vote Maynard!

  • there's such a slightly difrencce in pronociation between words like getting and giving if you spoken it fast, that's what maynard does..yeah goverment is a band full of pimps.

  • hahaha... classic. Mocking them straight to their faces, and they eat it up.

    "Maynard... says that every vote counts" .....durrrrr

    Hahaha... he does this with a straight face while wearing a pimp suit. I love it.

  • I havent found a representative worth voting for...

  • LOL@ "If you don't vote you're giving up your right to direct how you're manipulated or whats best for you." LAWL, Real Tool fans are anarchist/anti-authority minded, if anyone claims to be a fan and doesn't get that joke, then they never were REAL fans, talk about a band they know nothing about, and are more than likely EMO children of the new generation.

  • Oh man. How did I miss that. I just passed it off as some bull shit when I saw the video. But now I see. Thank you.

  • @kitchenpants You read the previous post? Glad to see you know how to interpret and display sarcasm, other people are just stupid. I can't believe how many people take jokes (aka BS) seriously these days.

  • LIAR!!!!! OUR VOTE DOES NOT COUNT! WE NEED TO TAKE CONTROL OF THIS OUT OF CONTROL GOVERNMENT !!!!!! FOR THE PEOPLE BY THE PEOPLE NEED TO TAKE OUT THE RICH ELITE AND DISTRIBUTE THE WEALTH MORE EQUALLY,. THE SUPER RICH NEED TO GO DOWN! WITH ME?

  • @angelvallone Communist XDD

  • @angelvallone Or we could take out the need for money altogether, money isn't exactly whats wrong with this world, it's the greed that comes with it which sums up that last statement. Let them have their money, Let them think they are superior, always be your own shepherd, never the sheep.

  • @angelvallone you missed the point

  • We all know each politician is the same as the last. Lincoln and Hitler = same shit, different century.

  • Maynard is a pimp <3 (:

  • @HardforJesus I agree. I would participate, if it came to that.

  • wtf is this

  • lol Maynard was really pimping it out. I don't necessary agree though. Vote for one crap candidate or another. We are still doing what they want us to by going along with only the two establishment parties.

  • haha, Maynards posse includes: 3 hos and Neil Hamburger!

  • lol! i love him. 

  • Did Maynard break into Les Claypool's wardrobe?

  • I think Maynard was inadvertantly showing how flawed societal concerns are with regards to a higher authority, look at how he remarks, "how you get manipulated" which proves his distain for political authority at large

  • Fuck politics. Fuck it all.

  • Fuck politics? REALLY? (look boys and girls) thats why our government is so corrupt. Cuz alot of people believe it doesn't matters enough to give a fuck about it, and, in turn, people get fucked over by stupid government programs and THEY had a chance to vote on.. Maynards right.. Get involved and make a difference...

  • @JFields1231 Precisely, the attitude we see reflects perfectly the situation we find ourselves in today.

  • @JFields1231 Fuck you. Fuck the government. Fuck Politics. None of them will ever get a single vote from me. Waste-of-fucking-time. And if anyone has a brain, they won't vote either. Now go fuck yourself..

  • @NoFuckingJoke Watch out Guys, We're dealing with a badass over here.

  • haha he is a pimp :D

  • Maynard's a prankster. Settle down people.

  • OBAMA FUCKING SUCKS COCK!!!!!!!

  • Haha nice costume, Maynard. I love him, he's so funny.

  • //listas.20minutos.es/lista/me­jores-canciones-de-tool-257102­/

    //listas.20minutos.es/lista/me­jores-discos-de-tool-257339/

    TOOL NEEDS YOUR VOTES!

  • fuck ya, just cause hes the lead from one the best bands, i would so buy his wine!!

    and hell this guy is actually smart, i heard about his politics and everything man, he a smart, listen to him man

  • The chick in the red dress could definitely manipulate me...

  • Obama won the election.

  • "If you don't vote, you're giving up your right to direct how you're manipulated" LOL!

  • For some reason he makes me think of Willy Wonka...

  • He looks like a jewish pimp.

  • Whats the song at 0:29

  • @iMarKraM weak and powerless

  • Comment removed

  • What a fucking clown. I mean, I'm a big Tool fan, but that does't change the fact that Maynard is a fucking douche

  • @MarinoXDesun youre retarded

  • @MarinoXDesun NOPE

  • hey guys what is the song in the end of the vid

  • @0rock0faisal000

    A Perfect Circle - Blue

  • @KILLAxDELFIA thanx

  • "IF you dont vote you will lose you change to choose how you get manipulated" Ou! I love that (:

  • so. has your vote changed anything?

    control how you are manipulated. xoxo

  • lol if you dont vote you're giving up your right to direct how you're manipulated

  • lmao!! this guy gave it to them pretty hard!!

  • we vote for the same thing tho

  • I don't think he is joking here, he may not like politicians or government or interviews, but he does seem sincere in telling people to go out and vote. He is right. If you don't vote your losing your right to be heard.

  • @drummerca101 we never have a right to be heard

  • He can do better than those two if he half way tried, I'm sure

  • 0:31 right of screen TIM AND ERIC AWESOME SHOW GREAT JOB!!! :DD

  • @kai9348tre He was talking about the seriousness of voting and had someone who isn't funny next to him.

    But Tim and Eric are really funny. Seriously.

  • @quj0r but that guy is funny, well i havnt seen him in anything else but tim and eric, but in that he was funny as fuck :D

  • Damn I never knew Maynard was a pimp!

  • Why does maynard look like a Jewish pimp wtf

  • love maynard lol

  • Bhahahaha he's a professional bullshitter.

    Just one of his many talents.

  • see ppl didnt vote now look whose president ............:(

    lmfao elvis glasses, i love maynard he clearly is dressing up like this just to show (yet again) HE DOESNT GIVE A FUCK what u think

  • see ppl didnt vote now look whose president ............:(

  • Apparently most people missed when he said you can choose the way you are manipulated. Anyone who would even think for a second that he was being serious about voting have zero understanding of this man, or his music. And ghosts, he didnt sell out. Selling out would be allowing someone to put his face on their product for a check. Maynard owns and operates his own vineyard because he wants to. Big difference.

  • @SignsReverywhere Granted,tht's your opinion.I have my own,I mean,I didn't just start listening to TOOL.My first TOOL record,actually was a cassette,so it was not a knee jerk.Where music is concerned,I have much respect for Maynard,just not his decision to go outside of music,or poetry,etc.Yes,many musicians/artist have went outside of their original craft,I pretty much think they are sell outs as well.There are others that stay in the same real though,like Henry Rollins,music,spoken word,writer

  • WTF! I haven't been following him much lately,but why does Maynard look like a fucking pimp?When did he sell out and start diversifying into wine?WTF!Well,if Dave Mustaine can sell out with coffee,I guess Maynard can do it with wine.I fucking hate wine,next thing you know they will be selling the shit at the TOOL and APC shows.WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!??????????????

  • @ghostscantkill dumbass thats not selling out its his own brand :(

    we need better schools

  • @l3iiSON What about my post? Did you not understand you momo?Diversify,meaning(in the general sense) to move into more than one direction.What do you know anyway,the lack of mention that it is his brand and commenting on the wine instead(and the use of the word diversify),to many would lead the reader to believe that perhaps I already knew about that petty little fact.Making the point to call him a "sell out",really was referring to the clothing line.Doesn't matter,he's a fucking SELL OUT!OOH

  • as his lyrics..and as his words public..it's all for your interpretation..as always..as told think for yourself.question authority.

  • im pretty sure this is all a mock up brought to you by the great MJK a man of many talants; intellegent, truly gifted songwriter, and of course... great actor and manipulatator of blind, corrupt souls. hes screwing with them... but they have absolutely no idea O.o tell me how many other people can pull that off honestly

  • If voting changed anything it would be illegal. Come on Maynard...

  • common maynard you cant be serious a vote is only a pat of encouragement the course has been plotted long before our "input" was solicitated revolution is the only answer why do i have the feeling the rest of the world will take care of that for us "im scared pa,..... were all scared son"

  • Maynard...i love you...your intelligence, your music, everything bro. But if you though obama was a going to help, your a dumb as all the other that thought that. Im pretty sure you could see that within the last 18 months..

  • It's hard to say with Keenan. I think he's the type that loves screwing with people's heads and he enjoys acting as well, but he might actually be serious in this case. However, he's also very intelligent and has to realize that the choice of two lizards isn't a choice at all and not voting is, in itself, also a vote. A vote of no confidence in the system.

  • @labrusca10 because a "vote of no confidence" worked so well for the Galactic Senate...

  • @papasmurfdrummer Well, yes, that is true. But lasers also don't make sound in space and travel at the speed of light (mainly because they ARE light) etc. etc. Let's not use Star Wars as analogy for real life. Unless you're just being facetious, in which case: carry on :) (Or should I say "Carrie on")

  • I think he was just trying to get the camera away and be polite at the same time. But really I dot care much, its just that in the US we have a electoral college, the people actually have no say AT ALL in who becomes the president, we are just indoctrinated to think we do (I think indoctrinated is the right word im going for but I know its not brainwashed lol).

  • i will never vote in a country that blinds ppl, nand its not only usa,

  • did she say tuckson arizona and not tucson arizona 

  • our voice may count, but it does not change the politicians manipulations and indifferance that tey are corrupting the countrys government, therefore our vote counts for which person we want to do nothing...

  • MAYNARD FOR PRESIDENT wouldnt that be cool

  • @overurhead28 lol free weed XD

  • @tJustSoup free music downloads so when ur high

  • @overurhead28 do I have to be high for teh free musics?

  • @tJustSoup only u can answer that question but i download high or not high i just enjoy it more when i am high try it high and c wat happens

  • The strange outfits and get ups he wears remind me of Les Claypool in a way.

  • God, that man is cool. Think it's time he got a new wig though, for his big identity hiding facade, it's become pretty recognisable.

  • what's the title of the first "bass and drum theme" song?

  • @faitheight its called "The Package". First song of APC's album Thirteenth Step

  • @IIRhyzII thanks :)

  • @mrflacid1 I am a huge Maynard fan, so much so that I named my daughter after a song by APC, but I have to tell you, even though I have NEVER heard of Tool being influenced by he Misfits, I know for a fact Maynard cites Meshuggah as an influence, and it doesn get a whole lot harder than that. @smellyundies69 You are a fucking idiot, shut your mouth. Maynard would judo throw you around just like that fucktard who rushed the stage.

  • Haha, he rolled with a style he likes, for all you people that make fun of this, get a life, and stop wasting your time saying stupid things.

  • This pussy is so ripping off Les Claypool's style. Fuck off Gaynerd.

  • @23house23 Les Claypook sucks almost as much dick as you.

  • Demonocracy

  • Sharp articulate and well spoken. Looks like he's probably pretty fun to hang out with as well.

  • i love maynard and i love tool and i love apc, and as much as it hurts me to say this, maynard really is an asshole, he's not good to his male fans for one thing and look at how he's dressing, it kinda makes me sad, at least adam jones and danny carey are still chill

  • @bakedevryday You are as bad as your words. Hes a fucking rockstar for crissake. Get with it. He has assholes rights. Hes a goddamn American!

  • @bakedevryday

    dude he's dressing like this non-seriously.

  • @bakedevryday Are you queer for him ?

  • @bakedevryday he's talking to the shallow television audience... stupidity is annoying. its hard not to scoff at the Mtv and celebritism crowd

  • James Vineyard Keenan!

    Nobody gets it!

  • i get it. he should stick to making wine since he cant write songs

  • @smellyundies69 ah. I assume you prefer the sounds of katy perry, justin beiber, and anything hip hop, right? No but seriously, post some of your favorite bands, so we can all laugh at how closed-minded you are. Then Maynard can laugh because you don't get the music. By the way, he writes lyrics, not songs, and he's a damn intelligent LYRICIST.

  • @MrFlacid1 ... sorry princess i dont like that shit you listen too if you wanted to find out you would only have to look at my favourites.. you seem retarded,are you american? and hes not a very intelligent song writer. i have seen them live and could see maynard hiding in a dark corner like the bitch he is. biggest pussy frontman of all time. will be sure to throw bottles at him at next years big day out

  • @smellyundies69 DANZIG?! HAHAHA you are so stupid. Im glad i looked at your page, it gave me a good laugh. Most of it isn't music by the way, I don't have time to look through the other 97 videos. Once I saw danzig in there, I couldnt see anymore through my tears of laughter anyway. I wouldn't want paparazi buggin the shit out of me either, so I don't blame Maynard for being unseen. Go get a life. A job. A girlfriend. Do something other than stroke your ego by dissing music on youtube fag.

  • @MrFlacid1 shit i thought you would be too busy playing with your balls to reply so quickly. danzig is far better then shitty tool the misfits were a big influence on tool so do you feel like a dick now?. and you dont know anything about me you fucktard so go carry on sucking your good mate maynards extremely small penis

  • @smellyundies69 maybe you have never picked up an instrument before? you say I don't know anything about you. But what do you know about Maynard? Or me? That just makes you a hypocrit. How did you know Maynard's penis was small? I'm sensing some homo in that UK blood of yours. And don't act like you know something that you do not. I cant find any info on danzig being an influence to tool anywhere. Plus, Maynard doesnt even listen to hard rock. So you are also a liar. Good job, cocknose

  • @smellyundies69 so, because I like 2 AAF songs, and Metallica... that has ANYTHING to do with TOOL? youre just reaching, now. Just stop. You are so hateful about something that is totally opinion. No one is right or wrong about an opinion, and try learning how to play a Tool song and then learn a misfits/danzig song. Only then should you come on here and tell everyone which one was more intricate and harder to learn. I can play death comes ripping. learned it in 5 min. Tool is much tougher

  • hmm I just thought: fancy suite :D I want that hat :D

  • @der2h2h Although I am a huge Tool fan and this guy is a complete genius, I laughed my ass off at his outfit. He looks like a short, white version of Snoop Dogg.

  • @davedorger yea, he has a good sense of humor. he's funny as hell.he used to do stand up with bill hicks in the late 80s early 90s. thats how they met.

  • Maynard once appeared as a member of his alternate band "Puscifer" SEARCH FOR: Puscifer on Mr. Show Season 1 (you'll see maynard as the lead singer of puscifer) i'm dying to know how many die-hard Tool fans aren't aware of this. I've always liked Tool but just happen to stumble upon this re-reviewing old "mr. show" episodes (funniest tv show ever, if ur interested in comedy)

  • Maynard once appeared as a member of his alternate band "Puscifer"

  • Any true "TOOL" fan should know about THIS: Most "Mr. Show" fans from the 90's will recognize Maynard's obvious tribute to Bob Odenkirk's character (in this youtube video) from the "Three Times One Minus One" soul duo.

  • maynard has the best dress sense ever!!!!

  • lol!

  • Maynard..In his pimp suit XD all his bitches in the background.

  • @BurnTheBluestSkies I'd be his bitch.

  • @maynardfangirl we could be like.. bitches-in-law

  • @BurnTheBluestSkies ikr he's got a cane and everything XD

  • @tJustSoup "What do you want to be when you grow up?" "Maynard's hoe.. Oh yes."

  • @paulbongiorno

    He's always been in the politcial, religion, and in general different humanity arena's, so this from him is not out of the ordinary.  I don't think your job, or social standing should have anything to do with whether or not you should speak your mind. Celebrities have a pulpit that we gave them so they get noticed way easier than you or I (not saying they are right, most of them are morons-but who's to say I'm not an idiot, or you are an idiot) To each their own....

  • pimp cane

  • Maynard Beeing Himself , GANSTER! lmfao! haha he's awesome

  • Oh Maynard, you so crazy.

  • Lol, I love how Maynard pwn'd us all with this joke.

    He is simply ripping on voting.

    You can even slightly hear sarcasm. And remarks like "control how you are manipulated".

    and then he was rewarded for his clever joke by advertising for his wine. xD

  • @eriksk883 He is the master of mocking people's ideas with a totally straight face, thus tricking them into thinking he supports said ideas.

  • @eriksk883 why doesn't this one have the 53 votes? because of the cattle that didn't get it. Vote, so you can control how you are manipulated. lol

  • @eriksk883 I politely disagree. I'm quite certain he is in favor of voting. He doesn't sound sarcastic. Politicians do manipulate us or change our lives. It's for the public to decide how they want their lives to change.

  • @craisslayer His trick is to NOT sound sarcastic.

    Do you not see how he is dressed for a news story? Complete with bitches? He has a clever sense of humor, and why would he be serious? Cmon man..

  • @eriksk883 He dresses like that quite often, to conceal his face. He's pretty serious- anyone with a brain would know the importance of voting.

  • @craisslayer He's just mocking, that way. Why the hell would Maynard, of all people, be serious in an interview? He hates them, he's going to mock it by doing fairly hard to catch jokes, to which he can laugh about, and dressing like a pimp. Also, I'm sure he doesn't really like the politicians and government and all too much, so yeah... It's your opinion though, we may barely know the true answer to this. Lol

  • @eriksk883

    He's being sincere with what he's saying because it's true. There's no jokes, no mocking, just trying to get a message out to people who will listen to him.

  • @eriksk883 lol i agree with the other 11 ppl. if anything hes thinking, Voting dont matter cus of illuminati.

  • @eriksk883 You're fucking bonkers dude. I see that this comment is from 7 months ago so you could possibly be Jared Loughner, therefore unable to respond. Your deductive reasoning skills are similar.

    If Maynard is all those things that you claim then why does he collaborate w/ RATM?

  • @eriksk883 i'd have to agree. he was friends with Bill HIcks. I'll let whoever doesn't know about Bill Hicks to look that up on their own. =)

  • when you're given two corporate-bought candidates to pick from, it ain't much of a choice.

  • Maynard is so copying Les Claypool's style
