The Tool Odyssey
b'As we sit here together, it\\u2019s been about 11 years and five months since Tool released their last album, \\u201c10,000 days\\u201d\\u2026that record came out on April 28, 2006\\u2026\\n\\n\\xa0Let\\u2019s put that into perspective\\u2026the last time we tool gave us a record of new material, the introduction of the iPhone was still more than a year away\\u2026Bob Barker was still hosting \\u201cThe Price is Right\\u201d\\u2026\\n\\nAnd this is my favourite: that was the year when NASA launched the new Horizons Probe towards Pluto\\u2026it has since flown past Pluto and is well into the Kuiper Belt\\u2026in other words, you can travel out of the solar system in less time than it takes Tool to make an album\\u2026\\n\\nThis isn\\u2019t the longest interval between albums from a band who has never broken up\\u2026in fact, Tool has gone out on tour multiple times, just to remain acquainted with their fans\\u2026but this has only served to underscore the point that Tool hasn\\u2019t come up with any new music since 2006\\u2026\\n\\nHere\\u2019s the question: why?...what\\u2019s the holdup?...where\\u2019s the new music?...those are three big questions that we\\u2019re going to try to answer\\u2026i call this show \\u201cThe Tool Odyssey\\u201d\\u2026\\nLearn more about your ad choices.
