We play once a week, the night is flexible. We practice in south boston. (5 minute walk from the red line) We now play everything up to Lateralus, and a select few from 10,000 days. Our goal is to know the music well enough to only get together once every couple weeks, and play shows a couple times a month. We need someone who:

-Knows the songs exactly.
-Takes the time to get the right tone, and the right effects.
-Professionalism is a must. You will be expected to know music when you show up. We believe rehearsals are to fine-tune songs, not for learning songs.
-Has transportation to and from practice.
-Loves Tool.
-Owning a tank would be a plus, but not required.

If you're interested, please send me an email
ouchdrummer at gmail dot com
and I can give you a list of songs to know to try out with.

Yeah, I know it's a bummer. If you know anyone that's capable, please send em our way. The rest of us have the stuff down pat, with the right bassist we could really kill it.

you got it man



toggletoggle post by arilliusbm  at Feb 4,2010 1:54pm
I know tool guitar players but not many bass players. I suppose one could switch but it'd be better to be technically spot on.

Damon?



toggletoggle post by ouchdrummer   at Feb 4,2010 1:57pm
No, damon hates tool. Silly.



toggletoggle post by FuckIsMySignature at Feb 4,2010 1:57pm
i'd attempt to do this if i wasnt in 3 projects already.

Too bad, you'd be great to have around.

I'd attempt to do this if i had bass gear and the money to share the space/drive to Boston and back every week.



toggletoggle post by ouchdrummer   at Feb 4,2010 2:16pm
The space is free, i guess i forgot to mention that it's my apartment.



toggletoggle post by Sacreligion at Feb 4,2010 2:17pm
Oh nice. Now I just need a bass, amp, and effects.



toggletoggle post by arilliusbm  at Feb 4,2010 2:18pm
Craiglist would be best probably. So many art student tool fans these days.



toggletoggle post by narkybark   at Feb 4,2010 2:20pm
Yeah, strangely enough I'm not a big fan of Tool. Not sure why.

Thank you master of the obvious. This is NOT the only place this is posted.

im gonna try out. tool has a bass player?



toggletoggle post by blue  at Feb 4,2010 2:31pm
If I liked tool and actually had free time I'd do it for you guys no prob.

Have you tried craigslist?

Good for you two, wait was this thread called "Do you like TOOL"? No.

I thought it was not cool to have a bass guitar in the metal?



toggletoggle post by narkybark   at Feb 4,2010 3:09pm
Xylophones are the new thing.



toggletoggle post by arilliusbm  at Feb 4,2010 3:12pm
Craigslist is probably best and tanks were invented in 1974.



toggletoggle post by Pires at Feb 4,2010 4:20pm

toggletoggle post by narkybark   at Feb 4,2010 4:35pm
You won't find many xylophone players on craigslist.



toggletoggle post by FuckIsMySignature at Feb 4,2010 4:41pm
craigslist has tanks now?

Even if you can't find one of craigslist, it's NOT required.

I'm sorry Jimbo...We's ruined your thread. Hug?



toggletoggle post by t2daeek  at Feb 4,2010 7:51pm
if the location wasn't such a pain from where i'm currently living i'd be all over this...
i don't have a whammy pedal anymore either so i'm pretty fucked when it comes to playing most of lateralus' bass parts...
if you're still looking for someone for this in 4-5 months, after i've moved, i'm in. lol.

Fuck bass. I will gladly spend the extra time and effort necessary to play xylophone for this band.

I love Tool, am currently band-less and could probably swing this, drop me an email: kylestevenparadis@gmail.com



toggletoggle post by sinistas   at Feb 5,2010 8:59am
Bandless? Rohirrim done?



toggletoggle post by neverpurified  at Feb 5,2010 9:02am
on hiatus for the moment

for anyone who hasn't seen UI live they really are the closest thing to TOOL as you're going to get.

Aw come on, Grant only sucks off the slammy DM bands and Revocation.

UI is no joke. Best Tool cover band i've seen/heard.



toggletoggle post by neverpurified  at Feb 5,2010 9:45am
I also have a digitech pedal board w/whammy, which would come in very handy for lateralus/10000 days songs
