| Tech Notes | Tool September 13, 2001 Grand Rapids,MI Van Andel Arena Recorder: Sony MD-MZR700 Mic: Radioshack Lavalier Omni-directional, original text file had "Aiwa bi carb mics" Source Info: minidisc(M)>WAV>CDR>SHN>CDR>EAC>FLAClv8 NOTES: originally downloaded from a tool hub in 2002, I believe this was taped by collectiveunconscious.org webmaster Galen, who has a different microphone listing than the original TXT file in my download. I also removed more than 15 minutes of talking by the taper, post-show, as it's irrelevant and, as someone has pointed out to me "I'm surprised he isn't embarassed by this." TAPER'S NOTES FROM collectiveunconscious.org: "Originally, this was the show that was scheduled for Sept. 11th, 2001 but was postponed due to close-minded, fundamentalist insanity. Friends of mine traveled 6 hours to the venue only to turn around & go back 6 hours, then come back & do the same thing two days later - all to see Tool this night. This show is real...I don't know...special. In my opinion, given the circumstances of the events in the world just 2 days prior, this was one of, if not the, most intense show Tool has ever performed - at least in 2001. Although I am quite biased, you can hear it, we felt it - whatever it was - that feeling that 'what the fuck was next?' Just being at a Tool show after the eve of World War III, as reported by MJK, is enough to make you really listen & try to understand a little bit more not just Tool's music but also your life... at least, at that time. As for the recording, the sound is a little brick walled & is a little 'muddy' due to the limitations of the microphones used. There is a little layer of crowd talking & after the gig, a long post-show of observations, not all being very intelligent but humorous at least. The sound is not the best, not the worst but is one of the 2 verified recordings of this performance. The whole vibe of this show is one to ponder upon, I find myself, even years later, coming back to this show to listen to over & over again. It is fair to mention that about the first 5 or 6 shows after the Sept. 11th attacks were/are interesting to listen to. MJK had his face painted half-blue for this show, for those that care. I do not recall any other dates, previous in 2001, that Maynard painted his face/body - do you think maybe the world situation changed something?" Setlist Disc1: 1. Tuva + The Grudge 2.
