Re: Random Tool Social Media thread
Forgive my ignorance on the subject, but doesn't the promoter pay for the venue, band, roadies, promotion and other expenses (like insurance)... then recoup that money (plus profit) from the ticket sales? Does the band pay the roadies directly?
Re: Random Tool Social Media thread
I can't/won't comment on how they fit in financially with the rest of the touring world in any way, shape or form.
The music business, in general, is all over the map in that regard, and exact wages are rarely shared amongst each other.
However, if they were grossly under-paying their crew there would be an absolute revolving door of crew people, which there is not.
Re: Random Tool Social Media thread
Road crew work for the band directly.
Local crew (stagehands) are paid by the promotor.

Re: Random Tool Social Media thread
Thanks for laying down some facts Junior. Much appreciated as always. I had no doubt that a group of guys like Tool would absolutely take very good care of their crew.

Can't really argue with that to be fair.

Re: Random Tool Social Media thread
It was just a throw away comment to be fair but it seems to have bothered people so I'll shh or save it for the grudge next time.
I'm not fussed about the packaging either. Whether that's causing the delay or not who knows.

Re: Random Tool Social Media thread
Junior and Joey laying down some words of wisdom as always. The rest of us are just gossiping like grannys.
Anyway, I'm holding out for a single release this Friday or next. If there's nothing, then I'll probably be listening to the first new Tool song in years via live recordings, which is less than ideal but whatever. I'll take what I can get.

Re: Random Tool Social Media thread
I'm starting to feel a slight shift in thinking as of late. The lack of information put out to the public YET (which I could care less about) has made for some great entertainment on the social media/interwebz. As excited as I am to hear some new Tool, I don't know if I'm ready to see the psychosis of this fan base come to halt.
Fun times we live in!

Re: Random Tool Social Media thread
I once read on the back of a toilet stall that Adam makes all the road crew do a pledge of allegiance to the band before each soundcheck.

Hellboy, the sarcasm font is clearly not working.

Sadly they removed that feature with the forum upgrade. The kids of today will never know the joys of unfettered sarcasm

Don't listen to em Bob. For a bunch of Mods you'd think they'd be more welcoming and have a better sense of humour but win some lose some I say.

Re: Random Tool Social Media thread
I work from home so I have way too much time to check this site. I just want to know if new music is coming this tour. I’m fine either way but not knowing is what’s killing me. Considering Europe is lumped in I imagine there will be some new music but who knows.BlackHole83 wrote: ↑Thu Apr 25, 2019 6:18 am I’ve found myself checking this place once a day for any updates.
