Hello everyone - I am flying in from Chicago for Cinquanta. I would love to meet up with someone or a group. I will be staying at the W in Hollywierd saturday & sunday & welcome party seekers. This is a solo trip for me so I welcome anyone who wants to hang. I met so many great people at shows/get togethers & made some great friends on Toolarmy & it's been awhile. Hope to see some of you there!

I'm coming in with ZERO expectations. Gonna pre-party and just enjoy the 90-120 minutes of "whatever" on what looks to be a perfect night - for saturday, high of 85' low of 61'. I went to the first Puscifer show with similar expectations and was pleasantly surprised.

Remember guys - Concerts @ Greek are subject to curfew so shows start/end early.

If I had to guess the song too it would be Lateralus.

This is obviously the more likely scenario.

But I'll stick with my guess. It's just a guess after all.

Looks like there will be plenty of collaborations (from the Failure FB page):
Rehearsal Diary May 7th (Cinquanta Rehearsals)
Failure has paused its headline tour rehearsals and moved down the hallway to the Cinquanta rehearsal space. Cinquanta being the 2 shows at the Greek Theater here in LA on May 10th and 11th, celebrating Maynard Keenan’s 50th Birthday. The show features 3 bands, Failure, Puscifer, and A Perfect Circle, plus a bunch of other guests. The show is going down kind of like a Pucifer show where everyone kind of hangs out on stage even when they are not playing. Plus there are a number of songs where the bands blend together to play each other’s material.
Pros: Its really fun to hangout with all these musicians, some of whom I’ve known for years, and others whom I’m just meeting for the first time. Maynard has created a vibe where everyone feels like they are on equal footing. No hierarchy of bands. Just a bunch of people trying make some cool music for a show. I’ve already picked up a few tips and since I’m playing a song with Puscifer, I’m learning how to play in 6/8! We’ve always wanted to have two drummers for Wet Gravity live, and Jeff Friedl is killing it with Kellii.
Cons: I wish there was more time to spend on the collaborative aspects. Right now we have guesting on 3 of our 9 songs. There is room for more, but alas, it would take much more time than we have. The technical aspects of having this many people playing at the same time can be a little time consuming, but the crew has been handling it like pros.
Here are a few pics Billy Howerdell and I have been taking. More to come. -Ken

It seems like it would be impossible to be in a bad mood around Danny. Such a happy go lucky guy.

After reading up on this show and seeing the Twitter/Instagram posts lately, I'm seriously debating a purchase of a Sunday night ticket in addition to my Saturday ticket.

My opinion is that if you're in LA and in a position to go, you'd probably be silly not to. Sounds like this will be excellent and unique shows.

Dirt cheap is right. What's going on there? I would have thought that a APC/Puscifer/Failure (with at least a Danny Carey cameo) would be worth more than that on fucking stubhub of all places.

sunday = mother's day = significantly decreased demand + greedy ass scalpers who bought all the tickets = high supply low demand


thx for the failure notes, super excited now. open air theater = vape all day.

This 1000%... he seems like a super positive person. Hes the main reason i have a crush on Tool. Maynard is a cool guy, adam and justin are great musicians but not very personable... but the D-Train?? that guy is awesome haha

I'll be there at 7pm per various social media messages to be there early.

We'll probably make a day out of it - tailgate in Griffith, get loaded, then head into Greek.

I can think of worse things to do on a weekend.

Enjoy the fuck out of it, any who are attending.

The poster for tonight is pretty cool and definitely helps explain the rather terrifying photo from Tim Cadiente the other day.
