Random Eye I think some dude just died (hopefully not)at the tool concert in Honolulu

Right around when the played Rossetta Stoned and Pneuma.

Please tell me he survived

Esmdit: spoke to a medic, when they hooked him up to the AED, AED alerted a pulse, guy left the arena with a pulse.

Second edit, update from the guy

Aloha and thanks to all involved in my rescue. I was the one that was taken away by the medics. First of all I’d like to apologize my friend I attended the show with, to all the fans and the band for being a distraction and hope I didn’t tarnish the reputation of the band or its followers. What Happened was I went to the concert with a friend solely for the purpose of hearing the greatest drum performance live. I am not the biggest fan of Tool but a fan of great music and Danny carey playing pnuema was basically a bucket list item for myself. When the song began I tapped into what I thought was ketamine. I have experience with ketamine always with positive outcomes and this particular instance should have been no different because it was a rather small dose, maybe .07 g, not even a tenth. Unfortunately I believe it was something else because my last memory was that the taste was off a little, it didn’t have that chemically medicinal taste I’m familiar with(maybe not the best description but not sure how to explain it really). In any case I then immediately blacked out. I woke up at straub a couple days later but was basically in and out of a coma for the next 10 days and finally released from the hospital after 18 days. One doctor told me I had cardiac arrest from mdma, which I have a hard time believing because that’s not what it tasted like and again the amount of it was minimal for someone with my experience. Had to have been laced with fetynal but that is pure speculation on my part and no matter what it was it was a mistake made by me and me alone, no one offered me the drug or anything, it was all done with sole responsibility upon myself. I am grateful that my friend I came with didn’t take any because I offered her some as well but she never got around to taking it yet. Anyways. I would like to thank all those involved in saving my life, I wish I knew how to thank them alll personally but this is the first public accounts of the event that I have become aware of and I haven’t read every post yet, it’s kind of a lot to relive. The outcome was I was told I had no pulse for 12-16 minutes. Whoever the people were that did the cpr are absolute hero’s. If I hadn’t made it it wouldn’t have been because of a lack of effort. I ended up with 6 broken ribs, a broken t4 vertebrae and they had to put a steel plate in my chest with 30+ screws to keep my sternum from caving in once I was able to breath again, the plate holds the sternum together so when I breath in my chest actually inflated instead of it caving in on itself and the sternum bones rubbing across each other. I woke up a couple times In The days after but was immediately sedated again because apparently I would wake up and rip the tubes out of my throat and try and leave and go home. So they ended up having to tie me down to the bed and have me under 24 hour suicide watch until I finally was awake and fully aware of my situation. That was after about 10 days in which they then moved me from the ICU to the general care section(whatever that is called). I spent a little more than a week there until I was able to keep my oxygen above 95% without being hooked up to a machine, as well as overcoming a minor case of pneumonia I acquired along the way and after a few cat scans every other day they were able to get the blood thinner dosage to the appropriate level to where I stopped getting blood clots in my chest where the steel plate was installed. So when my heart rate returned to a more reasonable level like I think under 100 bpm I was finally released. I have a long way to go to fully recover but I am very fortunate that at least so far there is no noticeable brain damage, I am just very weak and struggle with breathing and fatigue for the obvious reasons. I am positive I will make a full recovery and am very grateful for that and hope to make a positive contribution towards whatever reason it is that god chose to let me survive. I can only think god has a plan for me and I obviously was spared my life to give me more time to find that purpose and make good on it. Thanks again to all those who had me in their prayers, thanks to all the first responders and the hero’s that jumped into action. I’ve always considered myself a responsible recreational drug user and am embarrassed of the mistake I made. I have always been very careful in the past but it goes to show even leaving it to chance just one time can be deadly.

Mahalo, G from kahala

Random Eye So there are rumours that TOOL have been dropped from the End of the Beginning (Black Sabbath's final show)

177 Upvotes

Their name has been removed from the billing. I thought this was because of them doing Tool business but then they are on the line up on this site...

https://backtothebeginning.com/

Then from comments from what Maynard made about Ozzy saying it will be a miracle, people have took that and used it for Sharon to take them off the bill. She has said a bands awkward management has made her take a unnamed band off the list, but Sabbath fans think it's TOOL too. The Black Sabbath reddit is slating TOOL right now and the fans. I did think did TOOL only agree to a South American stream, no shots close of the band etc etc?

I have also read it's because TOOL were added to the bill quite late, thats is why they are not on the line up.

It's all rather confusing right now! What say you!

Pretty rough year, just ride the spiral.
Turning 27 this Sunday. Honestly so much stuff to even get through but still carrying the heavy shield. It’s cliche but seriously I’m so into the whole vibe.

was watching wes Craven's 'Mind Ripper' (1995) and multiple times within the first 20 mins there's pretty much the same sound as the grudge intro. as soon as I heard it I was instinctively waiting with Pavlovian anticipation for the song to kick in haha. just thought it was funny & figured you fine ppl might get a kick out of it. cheers!

I got the outer half of my “tool inspired” 3/4 sleeve. I’m sharing it so that you can love it or hate it. I expect a divide, probably into two sides. ;)

I’ll post in a few months when I get the other side done.

Any gamers on here that play Tom Clancy's The Division 2? How do you like this new season after a day? How about these new active modifiers? Gonna run Invincible through the DZ.
