Watch Tool members join Brass Against on stage for ‘Stinkfist’
Tool celebrated the end of their European tour by joining support act Brass Against for a performance of their first industry single, ‘Stinkfist’.Performing in Budapest last week (May 24), Brass Against performed the 1996 Ænima track – a regular track in their set of big-band rock covers – with Tool’s Adam Jones, Danny Carey, and Justin Chancellor joining them onstage.Brass Against’s covers of ‘The Pot’ and ‘Lateralus’ had caught the attention of the metal band, who subsequently invited them to open their shows.Watch the two bands combining to perform ‘Stinkfist’ below.Stinkfist w/ Adam, Justin and Danny in Budapest @Tool pic.twitter.com/S3M4Zs81tp— Brass Against (@BrassAgainst) May 31, 2022At the start of the tour in April, Brass Against were reminded that they were performing in a “no pee zone” on their tour with the veteran rockers.Upon arriving at the venue – the Royal Arena in Copenhagen, Denmark – Urista was greeted by a sign that’d been taped to the stage. It read: “NO PEE ZONE – No Urine Is To Be Deposited, Placed, Distributed, Sprinkled, Poured And/or Spread In This Immediate Area.”Last November, footage emerged of Brass Against singer Sophia Urista urinating on a willing fan’s face during the band’s set at the Welcome To Rockville festival in Daytona Beach, Florida.Although it’s not been confirmed, the sign was presumably put there by known-practical jokers Tool.

Watch Tool’s Maynard James Keenan prank drummer Danny Carey with a dildo
Tool frontman Maynard James Keenan has shared a video of himself pranking drummer Danny Carey with a dildo during a recent concert in the US.The clip, which you can view below, sees the frontman crouching down behind Carey’s drum kit with a dildo, which he uses to replace the drummer’s gong mallet.When Carey reaches for his mallet, he instead grabs the plastic phallus, and hits the gong with it.It is the second time in the last month the frontman has pranked his bandmate.A post shared by Tool (@toolmusic)He previously shared a humorous clip of himself trying to play Jenga behind Carey.However, Keenan’s game was ruined after Carey smashed his giant gong at the back of his drum set, causing the frontman to jokingly yell: “What the fuck! What’s wrong with you?!”Last Friday, Tool shared their first video in 15 years with ‘Opiate²’, a re-imagined and extended version of Tool’s 1992 single ‘Opiate’, with both the song and video marking the 30th anniversary of the EP of the same name’s release.Meanwhile, the band are due to hit the road for their UK and European tour next month which takes in shows in Manchester, Birmingham and two nights at London’s O2 Arena.
