Well, I'm from Kalamazoo, Michigan -- it's about two hours north of Chicago and an hour south of Grand Rapids (Maynard's hometown). Kalamazoo has a surprisingly good music scene (both local and national bands tour there frequently) and I know a lot of people who are into Tool. Now I'm living in Syracuse, New York because I'm going to school at Syracuse University. The music scene here really, really sucks. The only band I've seen here so far is the cranberries, and I've had to road trip to see R.E.M. and Live. I think I know two other people here who like Tool. Pretty sad.

I could write my thesis on the virtues of this band, and most of the world would still deplore them while listening to teeny-bopper grunge like Collective Soul ("The Bon Jovi of the 90's"). People can like whatever they want, but it's sad when people refuse to recognize a band's inherent talents. Problem is, most people have no idea what talent is. I've heard someone say that all musicians are good...that Bush knows their instruments just as well as Phish, for example. That's crap! so sure, Tool is factually a great band. But try telling that to a world of DJ's, reviewers, and fans who have no idea how critique music!

I could write my thesis on the virtues of this band, and most of the world would still deplore them while listening to teeny-bopper grunge like Collective Soul ("The Bon Jovi of the 90's"). People can like whatever they want, but it's sad when people refuse to recognize a band's inherent talents. Problem is, most people have no idea what talent is.

Especially the band itself. ------------------------------ Topic No. 40 Date: Mon Aug 14 19:46:01 1995 From: brian wood To: sugar@csua.berkeley.edu Cc: congregation@iglou.com, dear23@seanet.com, matthew-sweet@acca.nmsu.edu, Subject: having technical difficulties Message-ID: <9508150246.AA14445@chop> To everyone concerned, The machine I call to jump on the internet broke down last week and was just repaired and back on-line today (Monday). So, I have been "netless" for about a week. Also, most all of the messages were lost in the shuffle of the tech guys/girls repairing the machine. Anyway, if any of you out there mailed me, I didn't get it, I have a great excuse, and mail me again so I can answer you. I'm not a jerk. really. Thanks for your time. Later. ------------------------------ End of TOOL-LIST Digest 400 ***************************
