Tool have announced a new tour date on January 28th 2022. The show will take place at The Broadmoor World Arena in Colorado Springs, CO and will be a part of the band’s 2022 US tour. Blonde Redhead will open the first leg of the tour, with The Acid Helps supporting the second leg and Brass Against the third. Tool vocalist and lyricist, Maynard James Keenan has been the driving force behind the band spanning their five full-length album catalog, and according to him there is one song which best serves as a proper introduction to Tool.

That track being “The Pot” from 2006’s, 10,000 Days album.

In a recent interview, Keenan spoke about “The Pot,”

“To me that’s one of the examples of some of our earlier energy blending perfectly with our more mature energy and kind of nods to our influences over the year. I feel like we really kind of struggle to make sure that all four of us shine as best we can on everything we do, to exhaustion. But I feel like this one is one of the ones that felt, not effortless, but fresh and conscious consciously effortless, if that makes sense? It just captures that vibe that I think, if you’re gonna play a song for people to kind of get them into our band, I don’t think you should start with the 27-minute one. Calm down. Don’t get all QAnon on us. Focus on “The Pot“, that will be the introduction to all the other possibilities that happen in this project.”

Tickets for this newly announced date will go on sale this coming Friday, December 10th.
