Funny how people react to certain things....sombody you know wins the lottery...anyone say, "Man, I'm so glad for you!" ?...No, it's almost always.."you lucky f*****g  b******d"..A person you know loses 40 lbs..anyone say "wow,you're looking good, I can tell you've lost some weight"....?  No,they don't say anything, at all.  Just an observation on the human condition...

Wish for the lottery then have a private Bonham concert with lots of cash left over for new drums, lessons, and a complete cowbell assortment!

Though I have posted a few times.....

What different bands lack today is creativity. Not like, they are copying everyone else, but think about it. In the day of the Beatles... they were the FIRST band to do some of the things they did. Granted, a lot of it had happened, but they changed the whole outlook of the music industry. I don't know any band who really has that same power today,  and perhaps it wont happen again. Then you have bands loike Led Zeppelin who just lay it down, and for one, you have Jimmy Page, who just speaks for himself. And JP Jones, he wasn't a real outstanding performer like Page or Plant were, but you gotta hand it to him... he was always laying down on that bass. He was awesome..... and You got Plant, and he was awesome. And the best of them all, they had John Bonham... and I'm sure everyone knows what I mean. But I don't think there are any revolutionary bands, but I wouldn't say they are fads. They are just opening up other possibilities for the next generation of musicians will grow on.
i would have to say TOOL is one of those bands that changed music along with led zeplin....yes the beatles did do alot for the music but they weren't the only ones....we all have opinions on who did what, like for instance i really hate indie rock music aka nerd rock, but some one else may.....

 I really wish they would put a reunion tour together and use Jason Bonham as the drummer.  He is very good, and is up to it.  I think it has been talked about before but never happened?

While I think Tool is a good band, and will be remembered for times to come, I don't think Tool has done any "changing" of music.  They are not that innovative.  They just have a distinctive sound that sets them apart.

Tool is not a newer band... you all are seeming to miss the point. I said name some bands that have not been around for very long that you think might have staying power.
