Tool frontman Maynard James Keenan had a recent Twitter conversation with a fan named Mike and humbly revealed that there are betters bands than Tool onstage.
Here is what Mike said:
“Nobody rocks like #Tool isnt that right @mjkeenan“
Maynard James responded:
“Depends. “Rocks” is subjective.
Had my mind blown and heartbroken at live performances by @PJHarveyUK @nickcave @thejesuslizard #ahmadjamal @JoniMitchellcom @gillianwelch @BlondeRedhead @carinaround
All of which “Rock” in different ways.”
Another user named JBO commented:
“I always tell people who haven’t seen tool and want to that they put on much more than a concert. They perform.
They put on a show that’ll hit you in the ears, eyes, mind, heart, and soul. And never in that particular order.”
