Damn I wish I could have gone, oh well, there's always Primus.

Intronaut too? Dang.

I saw Primus earlier this year. I definitely liked tool more. And ya, I believe that it was Intronaut's drummer who came out and played with Danny Carey, he was good.

Saw Tool Friday night sold out in Hampton, VA. I saw them once before during the "Lateralus" tour. I would say this show exceeded that performance. The overall sound, instrumentation, vocals, and set list were all pretty much flawless. I will also say that the light and video component was one of the best of any concert that I've ever seen. My only complaint is that that show is very short... just shy of about 2-hours-- I think.

That's how long it was when I saw them last month. I certainly wished it would have been longer, but a near 2 hour concert doesn't stand out to me as really short.

I don't know, I think 2 hours is pretty short, and Tool clocked in at about 1:45.

I don't get to as many concerts as I would like, but just thinking back over the last year. Rush was 3+ hours, Dream Theater was 3+ hours, Phish was 3+++ hours (almost too long), Widespread Panic was 3+ hours, and I think Coheed and Cambria was close to 3-hours as well. I'll be seeing Jane's Addiction next month, so I'll be interested to see how long they play.

Well some of those bands are serious Jam Bands, like Phish and Widespread. I'm not surprised they played that long. I've been to many concerts and not that many have been over two hours. But a good chunk of the shows I've seen have been at festivals, and festival shows are usually on pretty strict schedules.
