Check out audience video of my band's show last weekend. Toology - A Tribute to Tool performing "46 & 2". Best sounding vid I have heard of my band - need to find out who took it and what kind of camera!

OMG! that song has been my favourite for a long time! Well done!

You seem to have his tone copped quite nicely. I like it. Also, kudos on the balls it takes to cover Tool. That's no simple 12 bar blues, you know :P

the rest of your band is quite good too, I'm impressed!

Wow....one of the best tribs I have seen. You nailed JC, not easy. Your singer also nailed it. Very impressed. That's all, my compliments are used up for the day. I'm going back to being miserable.

Wow. I must say, I was very skeptical of a TOOL trib band, but you guys are phenomenal. I would like the singer to either go all Maynard (standing back away from the band) or totally make it his own. He's a little too in the middle. But his voice! Awesome. Your bass tone is perfect I must add too. Only thing missing is that Wal!

I love the band name. Toology.

I'd like to see more covers of "4 degrees" or "Eulogy".

That was a really solid effort, which is saying something when you are talking about Tool.

Your singer has some of the weird stage movements Maynard does down pretty good lol. Best Tool tribute I've ever seen. You guys really nailed the sound which is no mean feat.

Thank you guys for all the kind comments! It is a fun and challenging endeavor. But we will keep working at it relentlessly. My goal is to have Maynard sue us ! We will definitely be looking to take the show out on some small trips beyond Houston - keep an eye out for us. You can follow us on Facebook or Reverb Nation.

Sounds great!! I have a feeling you guys aren't playing very quietly, and there's not really any audio overdriving, so I'd guess that the camera is probably a Zoom Q3 or Q3 HD - they do an outstanding job recording video and hi-def audio, particularly at high SPL's. More on them here:

Q3

Q3HD

They're also very small, so it's easy to carry them into a venue, set them up or walk around with them, etc. Fairly affordable, too!
