Tool may headline NZ's Big Day Out '07!!!

[MonoTurd]

On wednesday at 10.30pm (New Zealand time) Tool were on a late-night news recap programme called "Night Line" (NZ only). A few hours before it was on, I overheard dobrien talking to his mate who mentioned that Tool were headlining BDO next year.

I was excitied as a paedophile at primary school open night but kept the excitment to myself. When i got home i started watching the interview but my dad rang up and was going on about **** that i didnt care about so i missed the whole interview. But i said goodbye to him as the interview finished and heard the very attractive presenter say:

"and drummer Danny Carey confirmed to <insert interviewer&#39;s name here> that Tool are headlining the Big Day Out next year".


I went to bed happy.

The next day I spent the whole day at tech on toolnavy reading about the aussies and how they too are excited Tool are headlining BDO over there too.

Is there anyone else who will be definitely buying a ticket now that this good news has been announced?

[woosaah]

apart from ripper?

i know i definatly wont be :)

[MonoTurd]

im sure QKXV would go if he was in New Zealand

[..::ERIC::..]

f*** I&#39;m def. going.

[Ripper]

Chili Peppers also are coming arent they?

Hopefully the Foo&#39;s comeback in a couple of years - I have some DVD&#39;s from their 00 and 03 preformances and they are fricking awesome.

[kaftka]

As long as the Chili&#39;s play Power of Equality then I will go for them alone.

Although I&#39;m keen on seeing how Tell Me Baby is live.



Tool should be forking awesome. I can&#39;t listen to the albums for any extensive period of time, but they are excellent live.

Most bands are better live than recorded anyway. If they&#39;re not then they just plain old suck.

[dobrien7]

I&#39;ll be in for that trip :D

i have heard that about the Chillies too but i have also heard that they are touring Australia in March so that puts them outta the BDO in oz

[jinxed_nz]

Ive ALREADY got some money stashed away for such an event. I knew they where coming i just didnt think it would be BDO. TO be honest I have mixed feelings about Tool headlining BDO. I would rather have a stand alone Tool concert but BDO is good enough. and they might even come back in 2008 like they did with Lateralus.

I also herd that AudioSlave where in talks with BDO organisers. Anyone else hear this?

[MonoTurd]

yeah i would rather hear Tool at their own concert because 45mins of Tool just isnt enough!

but its still pretty rad that they are comming.

if Audioslave go, i will jizz my pants :lol:

so much rock, so little time

[jinxed_nz]

Thats my thougths too. haha I would rather have had Rage against the Machine there. That would have rocked! and maynard could join in on those parts that he included in. Oh well Audio would do though.

im almost certian that Audioslave will do "Know your enemy" if Tool are there. that would be so freakin wicked

You must have some sort of sleeping disorder, 45 minutes of Tool would be enough to put an elephant to sleep.

good contribution

[Ripper]

Thanks.

So you going?

[MonoTurd]

Thanks.

So you going?
[/b]
im going good.

im going even better now that they have unblocked TRF at tech

[jinxed_nz]

Haha why did they have it blocked? But do you really think they would play know your enemy? I would feel a bit offended if AudioSlave did it, its not there song and Chris Cornell isnt that type of singer.

[Ripper]

Whats wrong with bands covering each other?

[dobrien7]

And don&#39;t forget there&#39;s 3 of the 4 original artists would be performing it...

[Ripper]

And Audioslave do craploads of Rage against the Machine songs as well as Soundgarden songs anyway. I&#39;ve got a bootleg with Guriella Radio, Blackhole Sun and Killing on the Name Of at the moment.

Sweet, what&#39;s the quality like, where&#39;d you get it?

[QKXV]

im sure QKXV would go if he was in New Zealand

I would be riding shotgun if I was there. At the moment I&#39;m looking forward to see them at Wembley in November, my missus bought me tickets for my birthday, what a woman.


Audioslave is brilliant live, they covered some Rage tracks too when I saw them and Cornell was firing up the vocals something huge, you might think he&#39; s not that kind of vocalist but believe me Jinxed you won&#39;t be offended when he&#39;s coaxing you into screaming along. We were on the balcony (Brixton I think it was) as my wife was pregnant at the time, the people in the moshpit was going insane, I was jumping up and down on the back of my chair t&#39;was too much rock for one hand \,,,,, ,,,,,/

Cornell did Black hole sun acousticly, the best I&#39;ve ever heard that song, people chanting along

It&#39;s an audience recording so it&#39;s not the best, not sure of the date or anything, some guy I was doing a trade for Foo Fighters DVD&#39;s randomly put it in there.

They play Soundgarden and RATM songs most shows

Like heres one i&#39;m trying to trade for at the moment in a Mexico City show

Set it off
Exploder
Like a stone
Spoonman
Gasoline
Drown me slowly
Doesnt remind me
Be yourself
Bulls on parade intro
Sleep now in the fire
Outshined
Shadow on the sun
Black hole sun
I am the highway
Show me how to live
Killing in the name of
Cochise

[Ripper]

Apparently Muse are also rumoured to be coming...

Woot Woot, if they confirm i&#39;ll 100% be gunning for a ticket.

[jinxed_nz]

What you gona do when Tool get on stage? Be transformed to the right way? haha or go see Savage or something in their tent?

[Ripper]

I&#39;ll find a dunny, lock myself in for an hour and read the newspaper.

[MonoTurd]

lol or scribe and p money

[jinxed_nz]

haha what ever happnd to scribe? didnt he have to go to rehad or something?

Oh and Ripper we all know you will be at the very front the WHOLE time Tool is on because you LOooVE them!!!!

[MonoTurd]

i was just browsing around and found some more rumours for BDO 07 but these are for Perth. Hopefully they come to NZ too

BDO Rumours (http://www.enjoyperth.net/2006/08/big-day-out-2007/)

[C A Iversen]

I hear from some local buffoon that MUSE may be playing too?

[MonoTurd]

Apparently Muse are also rumoured to be coming...
[/b]
and also if you read the link i posted mr iversen and you will see that it wasnt just drunken slurs from the local buffoon

:bana:

[jinxed_nz]

I have been told that ISIS will come along with Tool but that could be just some crazy rumors because i personally dont see the point not many people would be familiar with ISIS in this part of the world.

[MonoTurd]

yeah ive heard of them only because they are somewhat associated with tool but i&#39;ve never heard any of their music.

i bet they will be suporting tool when they do their australian tour

[MonoTurd]

i found that tool interview that they did on night line a few weeks back

Tool interview (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DJXDkdGWUxY)

and that carly kirkwood :P very very nice :lol:

[Ripper]

Bah, so no Chillis... or are they just going to the NZ one?

Be nice if the Foo&#39;s did an acoustic show in NZ.

[MonoTurd]

yeah ive heard that the acoustic CD off In Your Honour is pretty good. i havent listened to it but i might some day

[C A Iversen]

I&#39;m really keen to go to the BDO now. I heard that along with Tool and MUSE, The Killers may be involved too.

If that is so, I will be there!!!!

[dobrien7]

Must admit, is getting better and better by the day the lineup for BDO 07... and more tempting to go.

[C A Iversen]

Still mostly rumours yet, and rumours have been scotched in past years too.

[MonoTurd]

good point mr iversen but im not taking the risk of the rumours being true and not having the money to buy a ticket so im saving as of right... now

[dobrien7]

Less than 2 weeks till Tool at BDO!

[maddog79]

I&#39;ll be there, and at their concert.

I can&#39;t believe this year marks the 6th year of me listening to them, and the second year of me liking them.

My brother implanted the greatness of Tool into my head over time, since i was 11, i only realised they actually haul ass when i was 14.

Rock ON

[MonoTurd]

Tools performance on Friday night was beyond words. It was a magical, moving experience and it was the best thing i have ever seen or heard. Cant wait untill November/December (although stuff.co.nz thinks its September) when they come back and do a full concert

[Ripper]

I know someone who taped Tool and Muse if your interested.

[Mr. Laxative]

Yes PLEASE!!!!

[MonoTurd]

I know someone who taped Tool and Muse if your interested.
[/b]
was it taped off their phone? because there are some on YouTube that were taken off phones and they are quite poor quality.

but i too would be keen to see it because both bands did all their songs perfectly and it was amazing to see and hear

[dobrien7]

Plus for those of us who were actually there, it would be a nice wee memento of the trip. That and it was awesome and would kick arse to re-live over and over...

Nah, it&#39;s audio with fancy equipment, I have traded with this guy and have some of his other recordings (he tapes alot of concerts, hence the expensive equipment)

The Tool gig may or may not have been video taped, he&#39;s not sure... if it has, the Tool Bootlegging community are generally very good with their Amatuer DVD&#39;s, if it has been video taped, the chances are the guy has a clear shot from an upright or unblocked position. Although the band don&#39;t help - is it true they didn&#39;t allow themselves to be shown on the big screen?

Expect something like this 2003 Foo Fighters BDO Gig if it was taped. http://www.bstuck.com/foovids/2003/index.htm#011703

[Prestwick]

Muse&#39;s best gig was their 2004 Glastonbury one.

[Ripper]

Muse&#39;s best gig was their 2004 Glastonbury one.
[/b]
Hell Yeah.

It&#39;s a shame they cut the best two songs from the Absolution Tour DVD though, Stockholm Syndrome and Citizen Erased - that jam they do at the end of SS is probably one of, if not the best closings i&#39;ve ever seen to a music gig.

[dobrien7]

How many good quality shows do you have, and more importantly, how to get hold of them please?

[Ripper]

Good Quality as in the Foo Fighters? I have about 20 Pro Shots and Decent AMT Shots as well as some very poor ones (Generally from the early days), I have a bunch of other bands, but nothing more than 5 or 6 per band. The number of DVD&#39;s for Tool, Metallica, Pearl Jam e.t.c is ridicoluous, virtually every show in North America is taped by some TV company and recorded and distributed or recorded with Video Cameras for those bands (With the bigger bands you get multi cam mixes where a couple of people spread themselves around the arena and than mix the different sources together so it looks semi-professional).

You get them by trading your shows which you&#39;ve got, so its preety cheap (Only annoying thing is postage overseas), but theres a small community of NZ traders who just share everything, selling them is frowned upon and trading anything that is an offical release is a no no.

If you have a decent internet connection you can download them from various sites (But there big - an audio show is around 700mb, tapers only use some format called FLAC, and may god have mercy on your soul if you dare convert them and spread them in MP3 - DVD&#39;s are a couple of GB).

I got started off by finding some guy in Auckland who started me off with a B+P (Where I send him the number of blank dvd&#39;s, plus postage and he sends them back with the shows on them). Most bands are taper friendly as long as the recordings aren&#39;t sold or anything official isn&#39;t involved, especially Pearl Jam and Metallica, very few bands openly try and stop it (the Smashing Pumpkins for whatever reason were paranoid about it - which never really bothers me because I&#39;d rather just use my blank DVD&#39;s as a drinks coaster than get shows from that ****).

http://www.livenirvana.com/begin/index.html is a good guide I guess

[dobrien7]

Cool. Seeing as I have 0 shows, would have to check the net for some. Ideally after good Foo&#39;s, Muse, Tool, Chevelle, Pearl Jam, Metallica above others I suppose.

So with B&P you send some one blank dvds, and they send them back with shows on? Does that involve you trading a show to them? And what if as stated you don&#39;t have any?

Or are they dumb questions? Is that a dumb question? :P

[The Flash]

No this is. Do you sell your body for your first show?

If so, I may have to sell mine a few times as it&#39;s not great.

[/b]
The first thing you said is correct - thats how I got started off. I can get you most of those bands if you want, actually, i&#39;m expecting some real good Muse, Metallica and Foo&#39;s sometime this month (Guy just has to come back from Holiday). My Auckland buddy is a big Tool fan so I can suppose I can get you some of that as well, could use it as a drinks coaster or a something for the bird to destroy when he finally finishes off my TV aieral.

And i&#39;m sure a Superhero like yourself Mr Flash would have no problem selling your body for a show, you could probably even get them to cover the postage as well.

[dobrien7]

Awesome would love that mate cheers :D

[kaftka]

Muse were the greatest band I&#39;ve seen live.... Until Tool.. Tool were beyond words. Didn&#39;t even know Serj came on until today.. My girlfriend almost died in the moshpit. My freaky bessist flatmate was drenched in sweat. And Aenima kciked arse.. It was a big day out...


Did anyone else see the North Shore Pony club?

[jinxed_nz]

I know im a bit late on this post but i havnt been on in a while but I have to say! WOW to Tool. Finally I got to see them! Ive seen APC but couldnt compare them to Tool! I had to wait 4hrs in the D to be at the frount to see Tool. Thru the killer, which were ok. cribe who was an imbarrisment to say the least! WOT A COMPLETE ASS!!!! and then Muse who i couldnt see but they really sounded off the chain! But Tool was out of this world! I was right at the very front the whole time and loved every minute of it. Serj just put the cherry on the top. CANT BEAT IT!!!
BTW The reason, if you didnt know, why Serj was here is because he loves NZ and I beleive he eather owns property here or is trying to get some here. He said this a few times in interviews.

I will see Tool at the end of the year for their own show. CANT WAIT!

[C A Iversen]

Should be great. Mind you I hope they&#39;re not too awesome or some Tool fans I know will be changing their jocks and washing their hands if you know what I mean.

Should be an awesome experience though, theres no denying the class of the band, I&#39;ve just been deflated by a minority of over-zealous fans.
