Wednesday night at The Arena at Gwinnett Center, Tool played to a sold out crowd with the same intensity as the last time I saw them at Lollapalooza in 1991!

The show was amazing! The only thing that confused me was why Maynard James Keenan, the front man, was constantly on his phone texting in between songs.  I guess he knows his performance would be that good that he didn’t really need to try. In fact, it was true. It was a great show.

Opening was YOB, a Metal/Psychedelic band from Eugene, Oregon.

YOB
