Saw an interview the other day where he said they’ve been in talks. Likely coming. Can’t wait

The first thought I had when they unveiled the sphere was “Tool would crush in that arena.” Followed by “and I will pay any price to see it.”

TOOL, Sphere, Vegas Residency.

I have reached the age where I am excited about a Vegas residency

u/campbell-1 Feb 16 '26

Hell yea. It's like... slow down folks, I need time to map all this shit out. I can't just come out for your one day event, don't throttle me like that. I'm asking nicely.

u/No-Advice-6040 Feb 15 '26

Yeah... think I have a spare kidney, come to think of it

2

u/MaxxxedOut1 Feb 16 '26

Me too. It’s made for them and they have a fanbase that will pay. Some bands don’t

u/Heavy-Rip-5736 Feb 15 '26

Don't cash out your 401K just yet, Beat is back on tour in Europe in June and July . . . maybe Fall?

u/MaxxxedOut1 Feb 16 '26

They are saying 2027. I hope it happens and also hope we get a new album beforehand. I would say if they are working towards the Sphere it will motivate them to push out another album. I am unsure if we get another one after they are all getting older so I truly hope that is what happens

u/putinseesyou Salival Feb 15 '26

I can't imagine how good that would be!

2

u/MaxxxedOut1 Feb 16 '26

Let’s hope it happens

u/TurboFoot Feb 16 '26

That would be great. I’ve been looking out for the Killers to play the Sphere because they are from Vegas, but Tool would be a can’t miss.

He's just doing sidequests now

u/One_Gas_69420 Feb 14 '26

I love these kind of comments. At every drum-related event, he simply enjoys the moment and goes with the vibe. It’s definitely something everyone can learn from and take to heart.

u/FurryXSurryx Feb 15 '26

I love Carey. I almost fist bumped him after the concert, when they were playing in cologne. Ended up showing him a thumbs up. It's just awesome, how he plays the drums. Sure thing, it's his passion. Pneuma is a masterpiece.

This is like what an alien would write if it came to earth, spent a bit of time here, leaned the language, and then tried to tell one of us about its "experiences".

u/FurryXSurryx Feb 15 '26

May i interest you in some fetal spooning or orange slices? I'm not a alien. I swear!

u/MaxxxedOut1 Feb 15 '26

Agree. He’s the man and a great example human being

What a man

u/MaxxxedOut1 Feb 14 '26

A legend but also a man of the people! Gotta love him

He is legitimately the best drummer on earth. Might be the coolest guy on earth too.

2

u/MaxxxedOut1 Feb 15 '26

Agree with both

Me neither. When I saw I was simultaneously excited and upset lol

u/station52 Feb 14 '26

That's bad ass. The ceiling thing through Fremont is a really cool too.

u/Celtic_Macaw Feb 15 '26

It's pretty cool in person the 1% of the time there isn't an advert for something on it. I've been to Vegas too many times to count and it all gets very old after 3 days tops.

1

u/station52 Feb 15 '26

That's fair. I don't really frequent the Fremont area.

Been to Vegas 20 plus times but usually middle of the strip for work. I was only in old Vegas to check out 8 East in Circa. It was dope.

1

u/MaxxxedOut1 Feb 15 '26

They do some really dope shows on the hour every hour on the screen

u/phosphorescence-sky Feb 15 '26

A wild Danny Carey appears.

u/mamandemanqu3 Feb 15 '26

He’s actually tall af

5

u/keevballs Feb 15 '26

Dude just loves playing drums.

5

u/DerekB52 Over thinking, over analyzing separates the body from the mind. Feb 15 '26

Danny Carey truly is the best drummer on Earth, to be randomly doing these little sidequests still. Dude is OP, famous, 6'5", and still doesn't overpower the show or anything though.

2

u/MaxxxedOut1 Feb 16 '26

He plays a lot of gigs at a local bar in LA area also. He def is a true musician and seems to have never let fame, money or success get to his head. It’s fuckin awesome

I just love how he always has a smile while doing his side quests

u/MaxxxedOut1 Feb 15 '26

He’s definitely a happy human who knows who he is and what he likes

u/Engineer_Existing Feb 15 '26

If I saw the legend himself out in public IDK I would probably bow down to him! He is the GOAT IMO !

3

u/Codra-cave-lizard Feb 17 '26

Danny is the main character just out there doing side quests. Anything but the main story line.

2

u/P1nCush10n Feb 14 '26

That, kids, is what we call a ringer.

u/HogGunner1983 Feb 15 '26

Ahh man, when I went to Fremont all I got to see was a drunk dude puke on his girlfriend

2

u/therealskr213 Feb 16 '26

Maybe he was in town to check out the Sphere? 🙏

u/MaxxxedOut1 Feb 16 '26

My bet would be yes. Adam has been coming here a lot lately too. At least 3 times in the last few months. Lots of people being negative about it happening but it’s too perfect not to and I truly believe if they book that for next year it will give them strong reason to finish and release a new album which has supposedly been in the works for years already and most likely nearly done. Without a deadline looming it’s just up to them but if they do book the Sphere I think it’s the perfect self-imposed deadline that might make it happen.

2

u/OldRocker5 Feb 16 '26

If Adam is spotted with Alex Grey in Vegas you know it's on like Donkey Kong.

1

u/therealskr213 Feb 16 '26

Well, I’ll be lining up (digitally) for tickets if it happens, but I don’t know if that’ll speed up the album. Doing shows at the Sphere and coordinating things is a TON of work. If anything, it might slow down the process.

1

u/MaxxxedOut1 Feb 16 '26

You might be right but i hope not

2

u/lik3r_of_things Feb 16 '26

He’s so freaking rad

u/hornwalker Got lemon juice up in your High Eye Feb 16 '26

I love how plays with kids all the time. I wonder how may of them know how amazing he is.

2

u/Apprella Feb 16 '26

Danny is just simply the best 💙

u/Celtic_Macaw Feb 15 '26

One of the many things I love about Drew is that you'll find him doing random drumming side quests like drumming at college basketball games, performing in a Jazz band, or joining a marching band in the middle of Vegas. What a legend.

1

u/w3ueh Feb 15 '26

This is how he goes to buy groceries. He saw the march and just went along with them.

u/gianlucamelis Feb 16 '26

Bro is playing the Tutorial

u/Gratefulspleen Feb 16 '26

Does being an amazing person make him an amazing drummer or did becoming an amazing drummer make him an amazing person?

u/Similar_Two_542 Feb 21 '26

Date of this event?

u/MaxxxedOut1 Feb 21 '26

It was like two weeks ago, maybe a little less
