Here's a weird one...

H. was played on a local radio station tonight, 102.9 The Hog here in Milwaukee around 7:15 pm. Never heard it on the radio before. We were going out to get something to eat and tend to put the stereo on for our four-legged furry family members for backround noise. Party on KITTEHS!!! and doggy \m/

Anyone ever heard H. On a "major" radio station before?

Depends on what you call major - I presume you mean commercial radio station.

The market is a bit different here in Oz, but I've heard H. (and plenty of other non-"single" Tool songs) played on Triple J here. While I'd say Triple J is "major" in size (in that it's popular in most Aussie markets) it's a non-commercial public station.

Heard it various times on the San Antonio station and I didn't listen to radio that often.

Yes, "typical" commercial radio station. They'll play the usual Sober and Stinkfist and Schism and Vicarious from time to time, but honestly never heard H on any radio station- local commercial or otherwise.

Thought they were owned by Clear Channel but a quick google search shows Saga Communications.

Nothing to write home about, but when I pressed that power button to turn on the tuner/amp it was a WTF? moment. Slow time for Tool news but was pretty cool regardless.

I listen to SiriusXM, and they have a new station called Turbo on channel 41. I've heard Schism a few times, Eulogy, Lateralus... And a few APC songs just within the last week or so.

I have heard *almost* every Tool song on the major rock radio station here, which I believe is Clear Channel owned. H, Rosetta Stoned, No Quarter, Right In Two, all some of the "non-single" ones I can think of. I know I've heard lots more.

Thanks for posting that. A lot of the same ideas/themes he's been talking about the last few years, but still interesting.

Really enjoyed that 2nd episode...the passion in his voice and love of what he's doing really makes you think, "what the fuck am I doing with my life?"

Are we still waiting on the curveball or whatever? I think I remember it being a hot topic awhile back but don't remember if it was actually announced? The vinyl reissues maybe?

Justin with his new bass:



Looks like a photo from the old Loft I think? With the guitars hanging in the background. Also whiteboard snippet...

Thanks Normy. I don't get this new fangled technology you young'uns are wielding these days.

I think it's because I don't have IG on me phone.

Wonder if he thinks that's his dad on his shirt? Apparently there was a video clip of "the boy" playing drums but it must have been taken down as I have not been able to find it. Someone on Reddit mentioned hearing some new samples on the pads.

There was, it wasn't really taken down per se - the nature of Instagram stories is that they only stay online for 24 hours I think.

Maybe they were new samples, maybe not. They were pretty innocuous though and gave no real insight into how one of their songs might sound.
