Haley Wilson me too cause it shows you how far they've come. There's probably not even a hundred people in their and now they sell out 20,000+ stadiums.
My uncle went to one of his concerts several years ago and he claimed Maynard sat indian style with his back to the audience rocking back and forth...sang the whole concert while playing (and beating) Mario brothers on the projector. Kind of random and strange. But that’s Maynard!! He is a genius in my book!
Dobbs was a bar 21+ so you wouldn't have gotten in...I was 23 & missed it as well...but Tool was fairly unknown at the time as were most nationals that played Dobbs and you can tell by the poor attendance....Pearl jam's first ever Philly show was there as well before they hit...
You would have had to have "Fake ID" cause JC Dobbs carded heavily at the door then. I was there, and it was mind blowing, and I wasn't even a big fan of them then? Incredible Live, so glad I got to be here on sheer luck!
Music just doesn’t feel the same anymore! This is the stuff I love!! Amps turned up too loud back feed from the guitars screaming! This is rock in its perfect form!!! 🤌🏻🤌🏻🤌🏻
1991/92 may have been the greatest years in JC history. In those 2 years I saw PJ, Tool, Primus, Nirvana and a ton of other great bands...often for No Cover thanks to a friend.
I can attest to this as I was probably right alongside you. The third floor was epic. Remember sitting with Pearl Jam and my friend telling Eddie Vetter that they were good but not that tight yet. Shortly after they played NYC and were all over MTV. I never let him live that down. Along with the Kyber it was an amazing place to see bands.
channeling a lot of energy. that intense expression of emotion comes from somewhere deep down and just wants to burst out and cuts deep down into the listener. music can be so powerful.
One of my favorite live videos. This is amazing. The live talent and raw emotion is incredible. Maynard and his black demon eyes kill me. JFC seeing the comments from 9+ years ago. I’m hoping people still sought this out today like I did. A masterpiece of a live performance
I'm not sure I can agree that "most every band during this time sounded just like this" TOOL always had a very unique sound. They weren't grunge-like in their sound at all. I don't know of another band that lead with the bass the way TOOL does/did.
i don't think there is another band that will ever exist that can deliver the chills to people quite like tool does. old maynard just stares through your soul. what an incredible band.
Very hard to believe this vid has not yet gotten millions of views. These guys sund as good or better than in the studio, excellent performers. We are lucky to have them and I hope they keep performing and recording. I'd love to see them again sober since I've been totally fucked up the 2 times I've caught their show and missed a lot......
Wow! I used to practically live at j.c Dobbs when I lived on south street in Philly. Tuesday nights they had jam night.saw George thorougood&the Delaware destroyers there, pearl jam, pretty poison, Motorhead, biohazard and my favorite Necros which was a kick ass show.
I bet if you were in front of him, you wouldn't be laughing as he's staring right through your soul to the back of your head at 4:51. And if you tried, I bet you'd be put into a chokehold so quick you wouldn't remember your own name.
Thats fuckin awesome!! Classic early footage, a song and performance of such magnitude and only about 5 people clap at the end!! Still, imagine being one of those 5 people!!
holy fucking shit I can't imagine what it would've been like to be at this show and then see how far they've come now even the greatest bands gotta start somewhere :)
if the crowd only realized what they were witnessing... now he hides in the background-- i absolutely LOVE Maynard!!! and would have killed to see him this damn close!
Thanks for posting. Wow I was still in the service when this show was on. Lived in Philly recently and got to see a few shows there at Dobbs although I would drink at Mako's across the street then to Lorenzo's for a slice.
Dude if you're the one who shot this video you should win a fucking Oscar or something, that is amazing. You totally captured that crazy gleam in Maynard's eyes, the zoom was good and all, too. Just a shame you didn't have a better view of D'Amour and Carrey. Awesome job.
if only i was older..i was only 10 when they recorded this, only about 2 years before i heard tool for the first time and never looked back. they sound amazing and for it being such a small club i don't think any band can top this.
Got a feeling about 10 dudes in 92 have no idea what they just witnessed!
I love how they're playing this tiny club but the sound is still huge and is very close to the album version
Better than the album version lol
This place is super super small I’ve been there
Indeed, small room & big sound.
THSI is how this song is meant to be played. Pure and raw.
I'm so glad someone documented this.
Me too...
+Arachnoscribe also me..
Me too. So raw, it's like seeing tool if they were your buddy's band
Haley Wilson me too cause it shows you how far they've come. There's probably not even a hundred people in their and now they sell out 20,000+ stadiums.
They knew they were witnessing history

Maynard did get hip replacement surgery in 2015 so maybe it was then and he had to stay off his feet for awhile.
I have a feeling that whatever he is staring at isn't actually there
It really is there, but only Maynard can see it
Some poor random at the bar
Wrong Thomas, it's there and it's the scariest shit you could ever imagine.
Nah man he's staring right through the audience rly makes them feel his story
@@thunnusobesus9270 Lucky*
Seriously The best live performance EVER, out of this world. That voice, the intensity.. even his pronunciation of words gets me.
I can’t imagine witnessing this live in a dive. Magic. Shout out to the camera guy. VHS? Excellent work. On point...
I was 17 and missed this?? I live 30 mins away at that time. Wth was wrong with me??
Kristin Tay fucking idiot I'd never pass up an opportunity like that
A Muncle for your uncle bruh lmao

@@jamesmichael9346 Me too! I was going to Temple U. On South Street everynight in the early 90s.
i dont think he even blinked
Dude, Maynard looks like he's staring into the souls of the audience, amazing...lol

Don't get me wrong, I love Maynard's voice as it is now, but back in '92 it was on a whole new level. Better pitch, better tone, better delivery.
Um yeah, he was younger...
Drugs
I agree
Age…
this footage is a national treasure. well done.
Underground rock/metal in it's truest form... Sweat, tunnel vision, intensity like nothing you'll see nowadays. Who's still here in 2019?!?!..
Seth Nickel no doubt. 2020 watching

This crowd had no idea that they were blessed to be witnessing a giant forming before their very eyes.

They are and always will be unique
@@darkm12 This
@@darkm12 so did rhcp. But nowhere near comparable
This is is so fucking amazing
this should be the official music video
I amnot even a tool fan but I watch this often
Just an amazing performance
I am back
lol same

The vid still only has 300,000 😂 . People really don’t know what they’re missing out on
I am afraid to ask what he is sees , what a performance !!
This is absolutely phenomenal.. never seen focusing like that
The entire concert is on RUclips remastered (better video & sound) which improves it a lot. Check that one out!
@@BritIronRebel def gonna check that out! Thanks!!
Best voice award goes too
towards the end when the camera is zoomed in on maynard and following back and forth while he's swaying and moving was pretty neat.. very tool-esque
The zoom in was the best
I'm so happy someone recorded this
Wow! I used to practically live at j.c
Dobbs when I lived on south street in Philly. Tuesday nights they had jam night.saw George thorougood&the Delaware destroyers there, pearl jam, pretty poison, Motorhead, biohazard and my favorite Necros which was a kick ass show.
What an amazing video. This is at the beginning.
Amazing can't stop watching. 4:51 is my favorite part
My favourite is that fucking guitar snare at the beginning
I love Maynard, but i can't help but lmao at 4:51
The girl that woo's right after like a terrified witness
Randy Strobel he always does that at tbat part of the song when the do it live for some reason
I bet if you were in front of him, you wouldn't be laughing as he's staring right through your soul to the back of your head at 4:51. And if you tried, I bet you'd be put into a chokehold so quick you wouldn't remember your own name.
🤣😂
@@MichaelGrubbEvolvedMinistry LOL yeah sure thing buddy.
The best song of the history in my list, no words.
2023. ffs could you imagine, knowing, and then .. or being there.
Maynard has to have one of the best voices in all of music!
Was tgere that night instantly fell in love with tool new then tgey were destined for greatness
You can tell how into the music he is. the focus in his eyes is something to be seen
Thank you for recording this.
The way Maynard just feels the music and gives his all in his performances is amazing !
TOOL rocks
Thats fuckin awesome!! Classic early footage, a song and performance of such magnitude and only about 5 people clap at the end!! Still, imagine being one of those 5 people!!
god damn danny and maynards timing is ridiculous
Rex Ross can’t forget Adam bro
Wow, that was a great show...I wonder if those guys ever did anything with their talent???
maynard's voice sounds AMAZING! SO POWERFUL!
I was 11 when u commented that I’m 23 now!!!!
@@preston1111 Sick math skills, bro.
Best live version out there.
holy fucking shit I can't imagine what it would've been like to be at this show and then see how far they've come now even the greatest bands gotta start somewhere :)

wow. i've seen bands in jc dobbs. cant even begin to imagine how awesome this had to have been.
Maynard is the ONLY person the can pull off the mullethawk
How can ten people not like this?must be the new era of kids looking for one direction videos.you guys have no idea what good music is.
and since then two more blind children have followed as well
Nobody cares about One Direction, dude.
It's a shame I was 11 at the time and missed this show!
2021 and I miss the fucking 90s Brother!
Fucking awesome haircut.... I will do that too... trust me trust me trust me...
I was going to college in Philly at this time! How the fuck did I miss this. JC Dobbs on South Street.
Makes me sort of wish I was born earlier, and closer to Philly... :3
it's fantastic, the hair stands up on my back,a heavy drinker who understands what it is about the life of....
thank you for upload
This performance is badass
This is one of the best performances of all time.

That's the south street life for real.
this is the best way to watch them............from the heart nt the money n drugs
I love that voice :D
there is something about tool and their music that has an impact on me like no other band ever has! tool is the best band ever!!!!!!
8 dislikes? they should be taken out to the town square and flogged!!! haha
jorray shun the non believers execute the weak
Imagine walking into a bar and seeing this band... and walking out like "WTF???"
such a beautiful voiceeeee
just heard this on a local radio station online in philly. prompted me to watch this! AGAIN!!
Damn this is fucking great stuff!!!
These guys are gonna be huge!!
5 years later I would become a Toolhead..

God i wish i was there.
Amazing!

Nice... so visceral; so intense!
Bookmarked for sure.
What an amazing find

Holy crap, that was the best live performance I've ever seen of Tool.
Maynard looked to be in a serious drug induced haze.
Great video.
i wish was born 40 years ago in USA....TY to exist tool....
holy shit!!! since 2007 there has been no dislikes!!!!!! amazing!!!
just think 1992, they even then were ahead of their time....they are amazing.
