Photos of Tool at The Enterprise Center

“Learn to swim.” That’s what echoed in the first few minutes of Tool’s set at the Enterprise Center as the band returned to St. Louis. Now that Tool has confirmed a new album for August 30th, the excitement and anticipation is finally at its peak because Tool is back, and St. Louis saw it first hand.
Photos in the gallery above are only the tip of the iceberg in what a spectacle this concert was. Ever-changing video sequences with alien-esque creatures moving across seven video boards. Holograms and colored spotlighting engulfing the sell-out crowd of well over 15,000 fans. Not one second was similar to another on stage as Tool played for over 90 minutes.
Along with news breaking about the upcoming album, Tool also performed the new songs “Descending” and “Invincible”. Hearing these songs is when I realized the new Tool album will live up to the hype because the new music sounds incredible.
At the end of the night, Tool closed with “Stinkfist” where people were allowed to take out their cell phones and make a digital memory. I for one love the idea of no cell phones held up and only recording/taking pictures at the very end. This rule made everyone take part in the music more and it was refreshing to be a part of an experience like this.
Tool will be performing at several arena shows for the rest of May as well as festival appearances later this year in the US. Get tickets to this if you can, as it is a show you won’t be able to truly experience by looking up footage on YouTube. Tool’s live show is worth the price of admission.
