my God this takes me back, my ex wife and myself + 2 friends ( cassie & jason sup guys if you come across this some age in the future!) - God this was an amazing show- Tomahawk ( mike patton's horrible band at the time ) opened for them - goodness this show was amazing ..
no disrespect to mike patton but that showing in Denver that night was shit.

@phishman706 well, yeh tool and king crimson have the prog connection but, as far as the vibe and subject content it's the angryness of the band [in their earlier days, like undertow-which rollins is on] I would say I hear more of hicks or black flag. But, if you were going to just listen to the music and break it down by the genre than you could say cimson. Trust me I like Crimson a whole lot more than black flag. It doesn't mean everyone will see it the way I do though and that's a good thg

@yehigota5inchtaint bill hicks and black flag? i mean bill hicks was a comedian who befriended tool and i see a lot more prog rock/crimson influence in tool than a black flag influence.

what is this shit? just photos !!! Live my ass !!

damn I haven't heard this in probably 8 years. I had a burnt CD of live bootleg tool shows (remember when we used to burn cd's?) it had tons of stuff including this which to this day I have yet to find on the internet. this brings me back.
-
I've been looking for this for such a long time. One of my favorite part of the shows. (I saw both Berkeley Community Theater shows.)
-
@yehigota5inchtaint I happened to love both, then found out there was a connection.
-
also, it's worth mentioning that I found out about King Crimson who i love throughTOOL.
-
I'm pretty sure that Bruford is a huge influence on Danney Carey as a drummer too and Maynard did a cover of 20th Century Schizoid man so I mean it's obvious that they were all influenced individually but, I dunno I feel like the band as a whole was probably more influenced by Bill Hicks or Black Flag or something i dunno. It's definitely not even worth my ramblings to even talk about it either. Tool is one of my favorites of all time and realy popped my musical cherry or@least ushered in an era

@yehigota5inchtaint Im not a huge King Crimson fan so Im not worried about it. I love Tool, whatever the influences.
fripp is the master gunius here...........tool learned just about everything from fripps music....it was all done 25 years before tool existed............this stuff goes back to late 70,s soundscapes fripp introduced......

@Paiste01
Point of distinction: Frippertronics was what he called it when it was tape-based. When it got more digital delay based, with guitar synth and other effects thrown in, he dubbed it Soundscapes.
