Tool to tour in 2016

[Redwinevino]

Wish there was any hope outside a pipe dream for them at Glastonbury

Posting on the new version of this site is a nightmare for me - always mess it up http://www.factmag.com/2015/11/13/tool-to-tour-in-2016/

Hopefully they'll come to Europe and UK at least! Would be a dream to see!

An incredible band.

With the download headliners sewn up, I think an R+L headline spot seems most likely. Not sure where they'd fit in at Glasto, headlining other seems the only logical spot, but I would still be very surprised. They did play back in '94 (I was there but didn't see them), so may have some affection for Worthy Farm.

With the way R/L has gone recently I think it's fair to say there's absolutely no chance they'll be headlining there, they are probably very unlikely to appear at Glastonbury, so I reckon if they are going to be in the U.K., it'll be their own shows, let's hope anyway

If it clashed with nothing they're one of the few acts I'll travel down to London to see. Anyway, the post only said US tour dates, and I swear they're often doing dates in the US/Australia, but never here.

My suggestion was made out of somewhat ignorance, assuming R+L as the more rock/metal fest, but I have been very out of touch with what its actually like and what demographic its going for, for quite a while now.

I don't think Tool would've ever headlined R+L to be honest.

I concur that they'd do their own shows. Unless they're not actually touring Europe until next summer; then I think Download would jump at the chance to book them, if they wanna play.

From what I can tell checking fansites etc it seems the US tour is on for Jan then Maynard will likely do something with Puscifer whilst the rest of them work on music for the new album. I don't think us lot in the UK and Rest of the World will be lucky enough to get a Tool tour until the album is out sadly :(
