    Want to hear new shit, Prison Sex, and any obscure songs off Opiate/Undertow/Aenima that aren’t the ambient tunes.

    I’ll probably just get that “descending” tune and the same smattering of other songs as years past since they have all the visuals and lights to go along with em.

    Still will be worth it and satisfied.

    I would be totally okay if they played zero songs from 10,000 Days and didn't play Schism at all.

    I bet we'll get 2 new songs followed by the typical songs of last 10 years. I bet they will do an off the wall type opener like they've done the past few US tours with Third Eye and No Quarter, so definitely looking forward to that. I'll be in Bham so I'll try not to look at Sundays setlist.

    Probably accurate, actually. I'm not driving, so I'll probably be able to put something together on the ride back to Savannah.

    Dope guitars, but basically confirms that The Pot and Parabola will be part of the set list. Bummer.

    Is Prison Sex BE or just drop B?

    Either way I agree, I'm very meh on both The Pot and Parabola.

    You are correct, it's B-A. Damn, I got super excited for a minute. I've seen Pot & Parabola live several times each and am really hoping for more from Undertow and Ænima.

    He did say during a couple of clinics that much of the upcoming album is in Drop C so I'm going to irrationally hold out hope that it's referring to new stuff.

    How does he do the stretchy effect as the song's first coming on? Love how it builds up to that low B note. He always plays hardtail guitars so must be a whammy pedal

    I don’t mean to crush your dreams, but they play The Pot in drop C live to help Maynard out.

    Not sure. Almost sounds like they slowed down the track and then sped it up to real time as he hit opening note. Sounds almost too smooth to be a whammy to me, but I’m a dipshit so who knows.

    Would love to know for sure.

    Oh I can't play worth a shit, I'm terrible. I just happen to know a very little bit about tuning and some Tool songs specifically.

    I will say I'm almost undoubtedly a better drummer than Popovio but he keeps avoiding a drum off with me so we'll never know for certain.

    Agreed. I’m way too lazy to properly tune a guitar to B to learn the entire song. Detuning a standard E down to B sounds horrendous to me, so I’ve never learned it.

    I know how to play the riff at the beginning. It's a fun one because you get to bend the string and it's all floppy and loose from being tuned so low

    Fucking awesome. They played 2 new songs and “Sweat.” Maynard was quiet. Said “thank you, goodnight” after the first song and like the 3rd song.

    Visuals seemed pretty standard. New songs had psychedelic type animations, but admittedly didn’t pay much attention to that.

    Aenema

    The pot

    Parabola

    New song (Descending)

    Schism

    New song 2

    Jambi

    46&2

    Sweat

    Stinkfist

    Both new songs were good. Descending had a very “Wings for Marie” feel. Shades of No Quarter too.

    The second new song was kind of an amalgam of H, Vicarious, and Jambi.

    Both new songs had lots of polyrhythms and awesome “chuga chuga” parts that required Adam to walk over to Justin to make sure they were keyed appropriately. The second new tune had Danny going nuts at the end. Had kind of a false ending, and then it kicked back in to a groove. Big fan.

    Adam played a blonde Les Paul on Parabola, and his silverburst on everything else.

    The pot was in C, but that’s the only one I think they played in that tuning. Aside from the new songs, Sweat was a huge highlight.

    They were tight. Maynard missed a couple of lines of lyrics and took sips of water, but his voice sounded great. He threw a water bottle at Justin, and Justin punted it back out of the air. Got a big laugh from the crowd.

    Bring me the horizon is the worst band ever.

    It's hard to imagine just showing up and having everything set ready and waiting for you to play for 50k people.

    Adam had an IG post yesterday from his beachfront hotel or wherever he was staying/hanging out at like 8pm. Bro don't you have an important show starting in like less than 2 hours?
