When Tool played in San Diego over the weekend, Maynard James Keenan took the chance to respond to fans being offended by the word ‘rape’ being in the lyrics to “Opiate.” Keenan of course was dryly sarcastic as always, discussing the San Francisco feminist vegans and others of “those” were offended by the phrase “rape you.” Quite thoughtfully, he replaced the phrasing with “metaphorically rape you [with a metaphorical rhinoceros tusk].”



Bonus: They played "Sweat" for the first time in 18 years, proceed to frick up the intro

Wonder how they feel about MJK using 'Fingerfrick' over and over in one of the songs on the new Puscifer album?

San Francisco feminist vegans


Makes me think of this:


And the angel of the lord came unto me, snatching me up from my place of slumber.
And took me on high, and higher still until we moved to the spaces betwixt the air itself.
And he brought me into a vast farmlands of our own midwest.
And as we descended, cries of impending doom rose from the soil.
One thousand, nay a million voices full of fear.
And terror possesed me then.
And I begged,
"Angel of the Lord, what are these tortured screams?"
And the angel said unto me,
"These are the cries of the carrots, the cries of the carrots!
You see, Reverend Maynard, tomorrow is harvest day and to them it is the holocaust."
And I sprang from my slumber drenched in sweat like the tears of one million terrified brothers and roared,
"Hear me now, I have seen the light!
They have a consciousness, they have a life, they have a soul!
Damn you!
Let the rabbits wear glasses!
Save our brothers!"
Can I get an amen?
Can I get a hallelujah?
Thank you Jesus.
Life feeds on life feeds on life feeds on life feeds on........

I'm a fan of the "I heart Guns & Coffee" patch.
