Did you hear? Tool is going on tour! Tickets went on sale today and one Tool fanatic wanted to make sure his kid got the experience of a lifetime and experienced Tool live. There was one problem. The show conflicts with the kid's music lessons, so the parents made sure to clear it first.
And the response was perfect.
The Tool fan posted a message on Reddit that he wanted to take his 12-year-old son to his first Tool show in Houston, Texas. He wrote “My wife emailed his band director to make sure he wouldn’t miss any practice or rehearsal the next day.” And response?
“If there is [practice that day], TOOL is a GOOD reason to miss it. My only response, take me with you guys!
“I am super jealous that he will have that opportunity and I will not punish him for missing for TOOL. How is he doing? Do you like their new album.”
Very cool that this teacher is up on her Tool game and congrats to the 12 year old. You can see Tool yourself at the dates below.
