Right Angle

Notes: Apparently, Tool's management recorded this show from 2 different angles as 'promos' or something. Having looked for a right angle of this show for a very long, long time, I realized that it was sitting in my VHS collection of Tool videos, just sitting there. Nice. As it is, the information I have is that this is a 3rd Gen VHS and the quality looks like it is so. Cannot verify this either way unfortunately. As it is, the right angle is my personal preference for watching this performance as there are quite a few quality focuses of the not just MJK but the band as a whole & the screens. This looks rather professional. If you look around, this right angle seems to be very hard to find for some reason. The center shot is the most common followed by the matrix followed by this one. Now, if there was a SBD audio to go along with this recording... huh... imagine that.
Notes: Tool played with Primus this evening. What a way to bring in the New Year. Just imagine that... actually, imagine the audience members. The "Tool" fan - some dude with a beastie tee, new tattoo & a can of coke mixing with the "Primus" fan - some dude & his sister/girlfriend opening up beers with their buckteeth... on New Years? Hell no. I'd stay away...
Notes by Comm4nd3r on 01/22/2006 from CU.org forum: Well I just watched this so I'll give it a shot. Video quality (VHS-3) on this is probably 7.5 out of 10 due to the gen. The filming job is pretty good though. There is some tape hiss covering the audio, but mostly only noticeable when the band is between songs. Sound is pretty good overall, slightly lacking bass, but relatively clear otherwise. Interesting setlist, playing 5 new songs and only 3 old ones. Bottom really stands out, I like the intensity level at the end. Early version of Aenema was pretty interesting (were they applying a sound effect to Maynard's voice? or was it something else?).

‘Nothing better to do tonight, huh? This is a new face. His name is Justin Chancellor, he’s from England.’

Bottom

‘Hey. I don’t know if you guys are following the news or anything, but uh, I think it was uh, Jupiter, recently got hit with a comet or something? And uh, apparently they didn’t think anything was gonna happen but today in the news it turns out that Jupiter completely disintegrated. It’s no longer there it just completely vanished. Now I don’t know if any of you are familiar with astrology or not but, I think Sagittarius is the sign associated with Jupiter so all of you people that are Sagittarius are gonna slowly begin to disappear and I just wanted to be the first. I just wanted to be the first to say goodbye. Ha-ha’
