Puscifer @ Captiol Theatre
Tool has been blowing minds all summer at festivals like All Points West and Lollapalooza, but there's little rest in store for front man Maynard James Keenan: He'll be taking his Tool side project Puscifer out on the road starting this October. The tour will be Keenan's first with Puscifer, after debuting a stage version of the band this past February in Las Vegas. 'We are compelled beyond all reason to bring the noise and share our special sauce,' Keenan posted in an announcement on the group's website. 'Although authorities suggest you be prepared for any and all possibilities, we simply suggest you arrive happy and hungry.' More Info.
