@@verybrdmusic takes you to other dimensions when you play or perform. It's such an intense feeling and you can tell that MJK dove into those feelings entirely. So he's not even really there at the concert. He's just in his head letting out all of his feelings for the crowd, especially considering this is an extremely personal song for him Edit: just that last paragraph
You made it friend- you saved yourself (and who knows whomelse by doing so). I am glad for you! Me? 30 years of use...mostly weed , h , alcohol and pills... mostly. Managed to stay totally sober for some months or a couple of years... Smthn tells me my end is coming. I have to stop now. The thing for me is to stop fearing that the damage is done anyways..
After watching the live performance it became clear that to me this song is the substance’s love song to the addict. I’m almost 4 months sober and this song has become my anthem.
*The thing about Maynard is you can't tell if he's just really drugged up, in heavy detox withdrawal, pretending to be drugged up for the song, crazy, acting crazy, showed up in his pj's, choose that as his costume...but YET NEVER MISSES A NOTE. He's always been enigmatic. That's why we love him*
I guess I am the old broad. I used to have 3 little blonde boys rocking in the backseat of the car. Now I have a cute blonde grandson rocking in the backseat of the car. His Mom thinks I am warping him🤣.
Stil got 10 years on me. 25 now. Always see mid 30 as the end. My generation already suck in music so I'm already referring to music older then me. Luckily we can still listen to the good stuff.
the gigs were great at the time & sharp as an army knife I had the pleasure to see them 4 times between 1993 and 1998 , in Belgium . He was able to sing on the same level as on albums ...very impressive feat .
I think people are mistaken. Maynard isn't as hammered as they say. If you look at him closely, every move he makes is deliberate, thought out, calculated. The look in his eyes, and lyrics delivered on time without mistake. What you're actually seeing is a guy who is at the top level of performing. He's just that good at what he does.
All anyone need do is watch Peter Gabriel perform live with Genesis, specifically the Lamb era. He does very similar stage movements. It's how he tells the story of the song. I imagine that Maynard is probably a fan.
As a profoundly deaf person, Tool was a band I felt through a sensation of vibration. Whilst using an ordinary hi fi speakers, their music felt like I'm going closer to heaven.
THAT IS SO FUCKN COOL lmfao like seriously how amazing to meet a band that u love via vibration who needs melody man I support and love a people like u
I keep coming back here from time to time Maynards artistic expression throughout his body to tell the story and the feeling of this song is like know other😮❤❤❤❤
My old friend told me about TOOL before almost 10 years. Start to listen them few days ago… Only I can say that in right moment TOOL step in my life.. to be honest, TOOL is much more than music.. pure esoteria covered with music🫵
@eric8542005 Experimentation with any kind of drugs is pretty much a given with Maynard...he's talked about it, although not at length. But that being said, he's a PERFORMER. He's always taken his music/performance INCREDIBLY seriously. I highly doubt the dude has EVER been under the influence while onstage. In his book, "A Perfect Union of Contrary Things", he stresses how important his live performances are to him. I just can't see a man of his level of seriousness and overall gravitas going onstage (at the giant fuckin' Reading Festival, at that!) in any kind of altered state. It doesn't really compute.
That third chorus where he’s shivering and reaching out, as if desperately begging for help. I’ve never been an addict but I have to imagine that’s what it must feel like. So damn emotional and devastating. Just as powerful and relevant 30 years later.
Tub Girl I mean most tool fans agree that the new album holds up and it’s gotten good reviews. Personally I can say that songs like sober or schism is way better than their new songs but the album is still really good in my opinion
i agree that they are completely different, however Maynard did some screams that Freddie can only dream of doing. And i said hes got more range i didn't say his voice is better because that personal preference !
@@robertworkman1419 I'm no genius man but yes the 80s was a great time to be a kid and teen so many awesome things I can say was being released and made in that decade 90s was great too but the 80s and a little bit of the 70s was better have a nice day.
being a tool fan is like being a star wars fan, not everyone in the world loves them, but when you find one, you don't ask him why. it's completely legit.
unfortunately after TFA everyone is a star wars fan now but just because it's trendy. it's no longer cool to be a star wars fan. we'll always have T00L though
+Ryan Fenstermacher Oh shit. People who like a movie from one of the most recognizable, successful, and influential multi-media franchises and one of the highest grossing film series of all time are being trendy? You're the _real_ fan, right? Poor little snowflake.
8 years sober! Drugs and alcohol no longer have control over my life. It was a good friend of mine who first showed me this song and I was blown away by the power of the lyrics.
What makes it even more incredible is that vocal coaches say he shouldn't be able to sing like he did with the dramatic postures he took throughout the performance. Maynard Rules!!!
@@FreedomInc I checked them yesterday after reading your comment. That was an awesome journey, definitely going to do that again. Apparently, he has a third group called "Puscifer", and RUclips directed me to their song "Vagina Mine". I have mixed feelings about it and still cannot stop playing it in my head. This guy is confusing.
He's hunched over like quasimodo and almost motionless... Yet he manages to give us all a masterclass on vocal dynamics and commanding an audience. That's impressive.
Maynard is portraying a character that being crushed by his addiction to substance and/or religion and is ironically using his addiction to soothe the wounds that are consequence of said addiction. Paul, the bass player, is portraying Nick Carter of The Backstreet Boys.
I once saw a comment on another Tool concert vid that said that Tool is like if the patients from Outlast started a band, and now I can’t unsee it. They are a very strange but very cool band.
i've seen everything from metallica to rob zombie live, but this low res, low bitrate recording from 1993 is still the best live performance of any metal sub-genre to date.
@@rondohunter8966 Yeah, this is really astonishing. As I said in another comment here, my mother was a trained opera singer and vocal coach. She would have gone absolutely insane listening to his voice.
@@JonShade-fy2gm I have nothing but respect for people who can utilize their voice to bring so much pleasure to others. While I cannot speak for your Mother, I do tend to think that people of her stature are in a rarefied atmosphere of distinct beauty. Unable to recognize the art of another artist in the same field, perhaps different dimension. The English lady was open enough to recognize this is music, though much different to which she is familiar. But as she listens she learns, and knows.
@@rondohunter8966 I meant insane in the most complimentary way. She would have been absolutely astonished by his voice; it would have taken her breath away. She would have rhapsodized over it. I would give anything to have her come back just to watch the look on her face listening to him.
It's relatable for anyone struggling with addiction the self degrading, the cries out to Mother Mary(or Jesus in the studio version) just to give a small hint or sign of their existence, the pleading why can't we just give in, everything about it just screams dealing with adiction
No matter how many times I’ve heard this song over the last, about, 30 years, and no matter how many times I see the live video, Maynard still sends shivers down my spine, causing me to sit in reverence, and awe, of his vocals, and performance.
Everyone here talking about Maynard being on drugs, and I still believe he's feeling the music as a whole, and he just gets absorbed by it. That's why you think he's on drugs.
ALl i can think is how much pressure all Maynards bandmates must feel when he's fucking nailing like this. Maynard seems like a dude that would fight you if you hit the wrong note.
@@gnatpiz Well, I know this artist, there is a similarity, my name is Sasha, but how do you like this music, see in full, the trumpet how beautifully enters ruclips.net/video/F7bmyqfJ0ss/видео.html
@@gtyplkjh6570 Well hello, Sasha. The music is....interesting. I need to tell you a little about who I am so you understand my comments. I'm 72 years old, honest. In my younger years, my genre' was bands like Cream, Led Zeppelin, Jethro Tull, Pink Floyd, Talking Heads. I grew up with some late 50's, and full 60's, 70's, 80's, and some 90's music. The biggest problem for me here is the language barrier, as an American, I don't speak Russian, but overall, my impression of the band is it seems like a fusion of Thrash/Speed Metal and Punk. I was surprised when the guitar started riffing on the high frets, that guy can play guitar. Because of the language, the lyrics came to me as just screaming/yelling, but that's my problem, not the bands. The drummer is consistent, the guitar is discordant but that is style, not poor playing. I LOVE the cello, I played a little in middle school. I love the song 'Rock Superstar' by Cyprus Hill and I think it's bass line is cello. The trumpet is VERY punk, it looks like an old car muffler, it's a very cool homemade instrument. I hobby build electric guitars (they are good guitars, but nowhere near professional level), and play a little. Because of my age, arthritis keeps me from making chord shapes, so I play like Keith Richards, 5 strings (no low E), tuned open G, and one finger barre chords. I can't read music so I just play free flow. What is interesting is that though I was never into speed metal/thrash, what flows out of me naturally is similar to what this guy plays, except I have no speed fingers. If I understand you correctly, you know the guitarist and band. If that's right, tell him 'Greetings!' from an old man in America. Between 2012 and 2020 I worked on the museum ship USS Iowa, and met many guests from around the world, including Russia and it's neighbors. All the Russians I have met have been very nice people and would talk extensively with them when I could.
To me that doesnt even look like a drug induced state. That looks like a man that's just so dedicated to performance and music, and has been putting himself out there, opening his emotions to the world, since the begging of his carreer. Theres plenty of bands you can look up to see how they perform on drugs, and it's a whole different kind of twitching and shriveling. This one looks controlled and completely consistent just with the message of the song.
Agree with you 100%. I have seen Maynard perform 3 times. Once with Tool and twice with APC and this is a man that knows exactly what he’s doing and how he wants to do it. And no matter if he is jerking on stage or look like he is jerking it, it’s done with purpose.
I'll never forget the first time I saw this video. I was surrounded by death and illness, I felt completely useless and down. And then I saw this masterpiece. Helped me to feel alive again and it's so good to read all this comments.
+The Trolliest Troll Whether or not Maynard did drugs before, during, or after Tool shows back then is beyond me, but as far as I know it's just an act to fit the subject matter of the song. He is, after all, singing about substance being used as a device for comfort--from the substance's point of view.
I've watched this video so many times i lost track. This is the most intense performance I've ever seen by a vocalist, the man looks completely possessed by the song. Absolutely wonderful!
@@erinchristopher7871 Maybe Maynard is thinking of Arizona Bay. He wrote a song about wishing for California to sink into the ocean, later started a vineyard - did he join all the others in California? No, he chose Arizona. He might still be wishing for LA to sink.
I wonder how many people at this festival had never heard of Tool. Then I wonder how many of them got chills watching this live and have followed them since
Heard for long time.seen this and wow the live version kicked ass.think the play out was classic. I partake on stage w some brutha's n we have a blast.big stage at HMAC in 26th and relive bark at the devil. But man does he drawl you with his diabolical looks haha.bitter sweet. Thank God for good tunes. This song reminded me of drunks last night at the racehorse tavern Killin it w Alice in sane!
I had been listening to her for at least 3 years before I showed up at this very concert. I knew that Maynard was a prick and that was very much confirmed by the way showed disdain for the people who listen to his music. I guess he thinks he's some kind of intellectual because he at some point came across the golden ratio or some shit. Anyway, the band would be so much better without him. On the other hand people that listen to the man and think that they're deep because they listen to them would suffer so I guess they do fill a niche.
There recording process has a lot to do with that too I would imagine. they don't edit that much with a bunch of effect, sometime they do to have the "album" quality but for the most part Tool is Tool
youre wrong milton. im en audio engineer/producer and im positive without any processing their music would still be popular because its not about the processing in their case. its pure talent tbh
and youre partially right but most bands as famous as tool use incredibly high quality/expensive studios. but even before they didnt their music was still popular or got them popular aka ANEMA the record itself sounded like trash but the idea of it was genius
In the 90´s i was so caught up in the european techno scene that i didn´t notice the alternative metal scene like tool! my regret.. what a perfect band!
He does such an amazing job at portraying the insanity of alcoholism. Crippling down like that and scratching his chest, the feeling of having no control and the world falling down on you. This is arguably one of the best live performances of all time.
90's kid finding out a 90's song about addiction in 2023 while trudging through addiction issues better late than nevver, and it's none other than sober thank god
This performance helped me with PTSD. I couldn't get on a bus without extreme terror. I did it with this song. I know Maynard had social phobia but if he can get up there and sing in a onesie, I can get on a bus. There are 100 reasons to love Tool, but I am forever grateful for this performance. It made me find my courage,
The first 50 sec of this song is the most haunting and beautiful sound I have heard in a very very long time. This performance is pure art and mesmerizing!!!
The late 80s / early 90s was an amazing time for pioneering music, imho (Death, Defiance, Atheist, IronChrist, Mr. Bungle, Dream Theater, King Diamond, Tool)
Bible says clearly the Devil shows up as an angel of light. A fraud. He is beautiful and not ugly. Dude has been deceptive to the masses for eternity. I never look at a person and pass judgement on their look. Based on this passage alone.
@@DiLL-PiCKLe02 he was performing like someone in a very dark place and high/drunk. Maynard is an amazing performer and he performed to this song on point.
@@vincentwhitley8197 nah it can help a lot actually if it's something like lsd on a low or medium dose it has allowed me to feel and Express the most intense emotions in the best way possible in my music now you couldn't do this drunk as fuck or if you did a line or 5 before the show if he was highe on anything hear it was probably lsd or shrooms I could imagine performing on anything other than that or he could be stoned but he doesn't look like it
Honestly, who has the balls to get on stage in front of, possibly, hundreds of drug addicts and stumble around in a pink onsie while singing about addiction? I love how brutally honest tool is.
@@unowhavethebiggay1430 he is completely sober. He is making a point. The way he is standing is mocking heroin users and the pink onsie is to signify a toddler. He is giving the audience the perception of a drug addict trying to get clean. He has big balls to do that in front of potentially hundreds of drug addicts. But he is just trying to give a little light into the issue. Most of his addiction related songs you can pick out lyrics that are sympathetic, so I think he has a pretty good grasp on drug addiction. It can make people the shittiest beings on Earth but it's still sad to see them stumbling around like toddlers unable to get clean again. But he still remains brutally honest in the most creative way possible. It's magnificent.
To be able to vocalize to the ranges he does in this video while in obvious distorted posturing is absolutely mind blowing... good lord this band is amazing.
@@nickygrey7027 how much does vocal range increase? I can some what reach those notes like he does, and with insanely struggle somewhere around Axle range, I have quite a deep voice genetically. Any idea? Sbould I go singing? Shout I fucking blow my brains out? Thanks.
46 here. My granddaughter LOVES Tool. I mean, big parental win for me and her momma. She says “Play the rock and roll music GiGi!” Indeed my child, we will play it.
Admired Tools artistry since med school (mid 90’s) now play Maynard’s music in my offices.......quietly........ your Orthopedic surgeon may be a tool fan......
@@HotAxleBox Orthopedic surgeon is not a dentist bud, their muscles/bone surgeons . Not judging...that is the education our piss poor USofA health care gets us.
This performance is unreal. It's a depiction of such tortured loss of control that makes you feel deeply uncomfortable. It's impossible look away from.
Noticed a cool testament to their greatness: you pretty much never see "who's here in 20xx?" comments in Tool videos. It's a given that no one ever leaves.
28 years later, this live performance is just as epic and hits just as strong as it did during that time of the debut. This band was so groundbreaking and much ahead of their time, it feels almost ethereal.
A short time after i saw this on tv recorded at reading festival in 93, they played in a small gig in my town Norwich (uk) in a venue called the waterfront.....bloody awesome gig.
Be honest it’s not your first time here
Maynard and Tool is the best band EVER and there will never be any greater band. Peace Out

It's not that he looks uncool, he looks possessed and makes us question if he is just crazy or performing really well

If he you read his book the demons you are referring to are his loss of control for muscle spasms. He didn't use drugs.
He is scary 😨😳
I love Maynards soul eating stare as he trembles. He looks like he is slowly unhinging and it's beautiful.
I think he’s the plastercine figures in his videos, the way he moves
@@chrisk6049 yeahhhh! So true!
Absolutely. Beautiful.
I saw them live in San Diego street scene Outdoors one of the craziest concert ever been involved in
You put my exact feelings into exact words.
His vocals are on another level!
FreedomFIGHTER MCMXCIX almost Freddie level.
hes got more range than Freddie
i agree that they are completely different, however Maynard did some screams that Freddie can only dream of doing. And i said hes got more range i didn't say his voice is better because that personal preference !
They are! Theyre amazing.
He does not have more range than Freddie.
I prefer MJK but Freddie had a wider range.
2024 -Enjoying this legendary performance time and time again 🙌
90s were by far the best time in human history to be a teen.
So true...
You are wrong.
80's hundreds of times better.

@@robertworkman1419 I'm no genius man but yes the 80s was a great time to be a kid and teen so many awesome things I can say was being released and made in that decade 90s was great too but the 80s and a little bit of the 70s was better have a nice day.
This is what happens when you feed Maynard after midnight.
Don’t spill water on him either, or he will replicate himself and start 2 other bands.
Hahahahhahahahahahahhaha
feed him a bunch of meth?
He becomes a Critter
Maynards are really complecated animals to deal with
@@eduardoGentile720 Maynard is an animal, indeed.
being a tool fan is like being a star wars fan, not everyone in the world loves them, but when you find one, you don't ask him why. it's completely legit.
You're completely right
+Omri Levy I've always said "If you ask someone to name their favorite tool song, and they can pick one, they're not a fan"
+Mike M (Drayen) Very well put, gotta start using that
unfortunately after TFA everyone is a star wars fan now but just because it's trendy. it's no longer cool to be a star wars fan. we'll always have T00L though
+Ryan Fenstermacher Oh shit. People who like a movie from one of the most recognizable, successful, and influential multi-media franchises and one of the highest grossing film series of all time are being trendy? You're the _real_ fan, right? Poor little snowflake.
8 years sober! Drugs and alcohol no longer have control over my life.
It was a good friend of mine who first showed me this song and I was blown away by the power of the lyrics.
Congratulations and blessings.....
Mystic music
I'm so happy to hear this ,I lost my only child Naythan from a accidental overdose 😢
This is legit one of the single greatest live performances in rock history.... this song... period.
gamebred26 it’s tied with laynes love hate love live performance
SIC has a great live performance of junkhead
What makes it even more incredible is that vocal coaches say he shouldn't be able to sing like he did with the dramatic postures he took throughout the performance.
Maynard Rules!!!
@@chrisnorgan2201 also Alice in chains unplugged, Layne was an Angel that day

Good one
LOL

"Coming out"? Lmao...
I'm turning 67 tomorrow, and I cannot believe I have lived all these years without hearing this guy's voice. Their music is hypnotizing.
It's never too late! :)
@@pleasy13 I guess so:)
A perfect circle is his other band.
Think what else you are unaware of. This song is almost 30 years old.
@@FreedomInc I checked them yesterday after reading your comment. That was an awesome journey, definitely going to do that again.
Apparently, he has a third group called "Puscifer", and RUclips directed me to their song "Vagina Mine". I have mixed feelings about it and still cannot stop playing it in my head. This guy is confusing.
Tool is for everyone. Welcome to the club.
Imagine being the band that had to follow.
He's hunched over like quasimodo and almost motionless...
Yet he manages to give us all a masterclass on vocal dynamics and commanding an audience.
That's impressive.
He is mirroring the music video movement.
I swear I read somewhere that the body position He is in is actually really good for projecting your voice.
Now try doing that at live aid with 100,000 people who arent there just for you and win all of them over. He can't and yet all the greats can
@@212mochaman thats ridiculous.... performance art many times will never be mainstream..i bet most Tool fans are quite happy with that.
theory: He's hiding a boner.
Maynard is portraying a character that being crushed by his addiction to substance and/or religion and is ironically using his addiction to soothe the wounds that are consequence of said addiction.
Paul, the bass player, is portraying Nick Carter of
The Backstreet Boys.
Hahahahha
Fucking awesome comment! Hahaha

I once saw a comment on another Tool concert vid that said that Tool is like if the patients from Outlast started a band, and now I can’t unsee it. They are a very strange but very cool band.
i've seen everything from metallica to rob zombie live, but this low res, low bitrate recording from 1993 is still the best live performance of any metal sub-genre to date.
You must listen to shit music if you think tools good

what a voice
+Yomamas Nekst Right...
It was later reported that Maynards microphone was not turned on for the entire performance.
Mtr Laux underrated comment
It couldn't be. The resulting surge of power would electrify the audience. What you hear is his actual voice. Toned down, muffled for your benefit.
@@rondohunter8966 Yeah, this is really astonishing. As I said in another comment here, my mother was a trained opera singer and vocal coach. She would have gone absolutely insane listening to his voice.
@@JonShade-fy2gm I have nothing but respect for people who can utilize their voice to bring so much pleasure to others. While I cannot speak for your Mother, I do tend to think that people of her stature are in a rarefied atmosphere of distinct beauty. Unable to recognize the art of another artist in the same field, perhaps different dimension. The English lady was open enough to recognize this is music, though much different to which she is familiar. But as she listens she learns, and knows.
@@rondohunter8966 I meant insane in the most complimentary way. She would have been absolutely astonished by his voice; it would have taken her breath away. She would have rhapsodized over it. I would give anything to have her come back just to watch the look on her face listening to him.
Maynard is portraying someone who is feeble and weak while struggling with sobriety.
That is a great theory actually i agree with you
I can attest to this..Going through opiate withdrawal recently. 30 days in! This has been my theme song..
It's relatable for anyone struggling with addiction the self degrading, the cries out to Mother Mary(or Jesus in the studio version) just to give a small hint or sign of their existence, the pleading why can't we just give in, everything about it just screams dealing with adiction
Hes also relating to how life is hard and that's why we self medicate
No way.. The why can't we sleep forever is something you only get when you've been addicted
No matter how many times I’ve heard this song over the last, about, 30 years, and no matter how many times I see the live video, Maynard still sends shivers down my spine, causing me to sit in reverence, and awe, of his vocals, and performance.
Everyone here talking about Maynard being on drugs, and I still believe he's feeling the music as a whole, and he just gets absorbed by it. That's why you think he's on drugs.
OR he's on drugs.
Probably both.
fpjesus naah... he's definitely on drugs
Exactly. HE wrote the lyrics because it’s who he is. He is living his own words and it’s his existence.
fpjesus exactly. he's actually more sober than 90 percent of the audience.
I've probably watched this video like 50 times now.
Naytone No one blames you. Sick song and band. I love Maynard's vocals on this live performance as well.
Not enough
+Naytone I remasturbated to it many more times than you. :)
Chaotic Atmosphere So more than zero?
Naytone same
is it just me or is this one of the best live performances ever? like literally.
This is BIG
ALl i can think is how much pressure all Maynards bandmates must feel when he's fucking nailing like this. Maynard seems like a dude that would fight you if you hit the wrong note.
Yes
Absolutely
absolutely.no question...
best performance ever recorded period
I’ve never forgotten this one, it haunts me and I’m grateful for it
Friend: Your crush is coming, try to look normal!

Reminds me of David Byrne...
ruclips.net/video/5IsSpAOD6K8/видео.html
@@gnatpiz Well, I know this artist, there is a similarity, my name is Sasha, but how do you like this music, see in full, the trumpet how beautifully enters ruclips.net/video/F7bmyqfJ0ss/видео.html
@@gtyplkjh6570
Well hello, Sasha. The music is....interesting. I need to tell you a little about who I am so you understand my comments. I'm 72 years old, honest. In my younger years, my genre' was bands like Cream, Led Zeppelin, Jethro Tull, Pink Floyd, Talking Heads. I grew up with some late 50's, and full 60's, 70's, 80's, and some 90's music. The biggest problem for me here is the language barrier, as an American, I don't speak Russian, but overall, my impression of the band is it seems like a fusion of Thrash/Speed Metal and Punk. I was surprised when the guitar started riffing on the high frets, that guy can play guitar. Because of the language, the lyrics came to me as just screaming/yelling, but that's my problem, not the bands. The drummer is consistent, the guitar is discordant but that is style, not poor playing. I LOVE the cello, I played a little in middle school. I love the song 'Rock Superstar' by Cyprus Hill and I think it's bass line is cello. The trumpet is VERY punk, it looks like an old car muffler, it's a very cool homemade instrument.
I hobby build electric guitars (they are good guitars, but nowhere near professional level), and play a little. Because of my age, arthritis keeps me from making chord shapes, so I play like Keith Richards, 5 strings (no low E), tuned open G, and one finger barre chords. I can't read music so I just play free flow. What is interesting is that though I was never into speed metal/thrash, what flows out of me naturally is similar to what this guy plays, except I have no speed fingers.
If I understand you correctly, you know the guitarist and band. If that's right, tell him 'Greetings!' from an old man in America.
Between 2012 and 2020 I worked on the museum ship USS Iowa, and met many guests from around the world, including Russia and it's neighbors. All the Russians I have met have been very nice people and would talk extensively with them when I could.
To me that doesnt even look like a drug induced state. That looks like a man that's just so dedicated to performance and music, and has been putting himself out there, opening his emotions to the world, since the begging of his carreer. Theres plenty of bands you can look up to see how they perform on drugs, and it's a whole different kind of twitching and shriveling. This one looks controlled and completely consistent just with the message of the song.
Armands Viļums he puts so much emotion into his music he goes into a different state of mind!
maynards a hard worker thats for certain
Agree with you 100%. I have seen Maynard perform 3 times. Once with Tool and twice with APC and this is a man that knows exactly what he’s doing and how he wants to do it. And no matter if he is jerking on stage or look like he is jerking it, it’s done with purpose.
Let's not kid ourselves, it's his stage act.
I've taken too much acid to know that he was not sober.
I'll never forget the first time I saw this video. I was surrounded by death and illness, I felt completely useless and down. And then I saw this masterpiece. Helped me to feel alive again and it's so good to read all this comments.
We're all brothers in soul
Rumor has it that after the performance, the sound engineer discovered Maynards microphone was unplugged.
Yeh he looks pretty sober himself and I saw no cord
🤣
@@jacksnow4826 Damn it now I hv to watch again and see🤣🤣🤣
Replace Chuck Norris facts with Maynard facts?
Can verify. I was the sound engineer. Lmao.
I feel like Maynard took a bunch of drugs before this and believed that he was going to die if he didn't sing this perfectly
I wouldn't doubt it! xD
He looks so far out there in this video I wouldn't doubt it
+The Trolliest Troll Whether or not Maynard did drugs before, during, or after Tool shows back then is beyond me, but as far as I know it's just an act to fit the subject matter of the song. He is, after all, singing about substance being used as a device for comfort--from the substance's point of view.
+DSGriever what the fuck
Good thing he did sing it perfectly ^^

Where was this show? I've watched this video probably 100's of times & just wondering where they were! AZ?
@@erinchristopher7871 Reading in England
@@erinchristopher7871 Maybe Maynard is thinking of Arizona Bay. He wrote a song about wishing for California to sink into the ocean, later started a vineyard - did he join all the others in California? No, he chose Arizona. He might still be wishing for LA to sink.
Lucky you!!! Yep, he knew what he was doing, every step. What a showman!!! Looks like so much fun!
you . lucky. bastard.
I wonder how many people at this festival had never heard of Tool. Then I wonder how many of them got chills watching this live and have followed them since
Heard for long time.seen this and wow the live version kicked ass.think the play out was classic. I partake on stage w some brutha's n we have a blast.big stage at HMAC in 26th and relive bark at the devil. But man does he drawl you with his diabolical looks haha.bitter sweet. Thank God for good tunes. This song reminded me of drunks last night at the racehorse tavern Killin it w Alice in sane!
seeing this live would stay with you FOREVER...pretty much as much as seeing this clip.how cools that!!!!
Hey there, I'm from the second kind, watched this dozens of times and still blown away every time
@@anthonymartin6838 Was there and Yes it still burns in my head.... Forever :))
I had been listening to her for at least 3 years before I showed up at this very concert. I knew that Maynard was a prick and that was very much confirmed by the way showed disdain for the people who listen to his music. I guess he thinks he's some kind of intellectual because he at some point came across the golden ratio or some shit. Anyway, the band would be so much better without him. On the other hand people that listen to the man and think that they're deep because they listen to them would suffer so I guess they do fill a niche.
Man - some bands suck live/without studio tweaking of voices and the like. This is just awesome.
There recording process has a lot to do with that too I would imagine. they don't edit that much with a bunch of effect, sometime they do to have the "album" quality but for the most part Tool is Tool
youre wrong milton. im en audio engineer/producer and im positive without any processing their music would still be popular because its not about the processing in their case. its pure talent tbh
and youre partially right but most bands as famous as tool use incredibly high quality/expensive studios. but even before they didnt their music was still popular or got them popular aka ANEMA the record itself sounded like trash but the idea of it was genius
Hans Lain Maynard does have a very nice and unique voice. The bass player has skill. the others are great as well.
Dylan Fisher what would you say was so "trashy" about that album? what would you say is a much "better" sounding album?
In the 90´s i was so caught up in the european techno scene that i didn´t notice the alternative metal scene like tool! my regret.. what a perfect band!
There is a thin line between a crazy homeless man and a Artist , Maynard walks that line.
Right on
MC Ride from Death Grips crosses it
Maynard is rich AF
Maynard has one foot on a banana peel and the other one in the Twlight Zone . 🍌 🌌🌌🌌🍌

He does such an amazing job at portraying the insanity of alcoholism. Crippling down like that and scratching his chest, the feeling of having no control and the world falling down on you. This is arguably one of the best live performances of all time.
Yes for sure. And coming from a recovering it is extremely uncomfortable and real. I love it though.. this song has helped me on my journey alot
Cigaretts and alcohol...
Greg Singleton Thats awesome man, keep it pushing! Always light at the end of the tunnel. Happy to hear it!!!
He played a crackhead lol
agreed
The fact he sounds as good live as on recording is a lost true art of todays music
Don't forget, the addiction also cries 'why can't we drink forever?' It all really is rather bleak. I wonder how many really understand the message.
Boomer take. And dead wrong too.
Or maybe you just got old and stopped looking
honestly
Literally every band I’ve ever seen sounds good live, you just listen to shit music

Very rare that a singer's live vocals sound as good as the album. Only Maynard.

This performance helped me with PTSD. I couldn't get on a bus without extreme terror. I did it with this song. I know Maynard had social phobia but if he can get up there and sing in a onesie, I can get on a bus. There are 100 reasons to love Tool, but I am forever grateful for this performance. It made me find my courage,

The first 50 sec of this song is the most haunting and beautiful sound I have heard in a very very long time. This performance is pure art and mesmerizing!!!

Honestly, who has the balls to get on stage in front of, possibly, hundreds of drug addicts and stumble around in a pink onsie while singing about addiction? I love how brutally honest tool is.
@@unowhavethebiggay1430 he is completely sober. He is making a point. The way he is standing is mocking heroin users and the pink onsie is to signify a toddler. He is giving the audience the perception of a drug addict trying to get clean. He has big balls to do that in front of potentially hundreds of drug addicts. But he is just trying to give a little light into the issue. Most of his addiction related songs you can pick out lyrics that are sympathetic, so I think he has a pretty good grasp on drug addiction. It can make people the shittiest beings on Earth but it's still sad to see them stumbling around like toddlers unable to get clean again. But he still remains brutally honest in the most creative way possible. It's magnificent.
To be able to vocalize to the ranges he does in this video while in obvious distorted posturing is absolutely mind blowing... good lord this band is amazing.
To me its totally unearthly to be able to have that vocal range crouched over...respect to any artist with this kind of talent.
@@nickygrey7027 how much does vocal range increase? I can some what reach those notes like he does, and with insanely struggle somewhere around Axle range, I have quite a deep voice genetically.

16 years sober today, AND I just discovered Tool.... the hell is wrong with me??
I’m glad they held back an album for 17 generations so I can catch up on the tool discography.
The way his voice wavers and trembles when he's yelling out some words is just so incredibly captivating..

This performance is unreal. It's a depiction of such tortured loss of control that makes you feel deeply uncomfortable. It's impossible look away from.
Tool is one of those bands that are so unique, they are almost categorized as their own genre of music
Noticed a cool testament to their greatness: you pretty much never see "who's here in 20xx?" comments in Tool videos. It's a given that no one ever leaves.
My thoughts on those are "OMG! You're watching videos in 2020.
BFD! Get over yourself!"
We have no reason to leave. We're at home.
28 years later, this live performance is just as epic and hits just as strong as it did during that time of the debut. This band was so groundbreaking and much ahead of their time, it feels almost ethereal.
Holy shit this song is my age lmao I didn't know this was in 93
A short time after i saw this on tv recorded at reading festival in 93, they played in a small gig in my town Norwich (uk) in a venue called the waterfront.....bloody awesome gig.
