'KAY, WHY AM I MAKING THIS SUCH A BIG DEAL?

Two words, man. FREAKING... AWESOME. Why else would the tickets be sold out in less than four minutes? HA! The Orpeum theater they played at was, like, an old Victorian style building, rich with musty, bold air. It was in an alley too, of all places. Took us FOREVER to find the damn place, but once we caught sight of all the people standing in fromt of this one building, we knew that was it. The place was so packed, I got groped, like, three times... damnit. But anyway. The show they put on itself was freakin' amazing. They opened up, played thier beginning act and then went on to introduce themselves, like most concerts do. Most were expecting a "How are you, Boston?" or, "Hello, Boston!" ...But no. Lead singer ((Maynard Keenan)) scanned the crowd and mumbled, "Where the f*ck are we...?" ...yeah. The songs they played were deliciously beautiful... my neck is till sore from the headbanging. ...Seriously. But yeah. If you don't know who TOOL is, or if you haven't really heard any of thier music, check 'em out. It'll be worth your time.
