Just because Maynard thinks the mythical next Tool album is the new Guns N Roses "Chinese Democracy", it doesn't mean that the band isn't going to keep busy after hitting the studio.
Since Maynard is going to be busy doing some A Perfect Circle touring, the instrumentalists of the band, guitarist Adam Jones, bassist Justin Chancellor and drummer Danny Carey have announced a series of intimate clinics:
“Tool, one of rock music’s most mysterious and speculated about bands, give fans a rare glimpse behind-the-scenes via a series of intimate music clinics.
“The discussions include drummer Danny Carey, bass player Justin Chancellor and guitar player Adam Jones walking attendees through a handful of the band’s songs, from the process of writing them to playing them live. Audience members are encouraged to ask questions via an open discussion, as well as mingle with the band following the session.
“Ticket holders will receive commemorative merchandise, exclusive to the series of events and limited to the number of people in attendance. An accompanying, traveling exhibit will be on display at each event, featuring unique items from Tool’s history.”
Tickets are on sale this Friday. Here are the dates:
May 11 St. Paul, MN Myth Live Event Center
May 14 Chicago, IL The Vic Theatre
May 15 Indianapolis, IN Egyptian Room at Old National Centre
May 16 Royal Oak, MI Royal Oak Music Theatre
