[video] Tool 2019-2020 Fear Inoculum Tour multi-cam maxi-cut 

I recently finished a relatively major project, and thought I'd let you know about it. It was a hell of a lot of work and took me a hell of a lot of time to do it. Wouldn't have been possible except I have some time these days, now that I'm done with posting concert recordings for the time being, plus this whole work-from-home coronavirus quarantine has me at home a lot with not much to do except find random audio and video projects.
This one is for the Tool fans.
What I did was take a single-camera, full length concert from their recent tour, shot in Denver, which some random person posted to YouTube, and then I found a bunch more videos of the individual songs and used all that footage as b-roll. So it ended up being a multi-cam bootleg of a full Tool show. Plus, I added a couple songs from their latest album, Fear Inoculum, that they didn't play in Denver. So, it ended up being a multi-cam maxi-cut.
I posted it to YouTube, but, even though my video is just a compilation of other videos that are still up on YT, YouTube quickly pulled mine. So unfortunately, it's not viewable anywhere. But, I sent the video over to the super cool people at Dark Circle Room, who posted it on the blog for download.
I’ve posted a bunch of screenshots below. Complete details, tracklist, and of course the download are at the link.
Tool has never put out an official live concert video. Until they do, this is about as close as we’ll get.
And check out everything else DCR has posted. They have hundreds of bootleg audio and video recordings of underground-y rock bands from over the decades (they're HUGE on Sisters of Mercy), VHS rips, contemporary video rips of concerts, and all sorts of associated random stuff.
