"Hooker WITH A PENIS"

All you know about me is what Ive sold you,
Dumb fuck.
I sold out long before you ever heard my name.

I sold my soul to make a record,
Dip shit,
And you bought one.

This song is for people like YOU. Who will buy anything his golden touch affects.

So much for not wanting a conflict ...

I'm not here to make people angry. This is simply my opinion on Maynard/Tool, and I have no desire for conflict.


I loved Tool way back when Opiate came out, and will still listen to PIRATED music and NEVER pay for another show or t-shirt. I can't even stand to wear the shirts I own anymore, and here is why:

I am so sick of hearing about Tool. It's always from the kind of people who would suck Maynards dick, just so they could brag to all the Tool worshiping yuppies. Why are people claiming that Tool is "our generations Pink Floyd"? That's twisted ... they're talented, but that comparison is SO insulting it makes my flesh crawl. Anyone who listens to the music KNOWS they sold out, and did so intentionally. "Hooker with a Penis" Maynard admits he's prostituting his music willingly. He doesn't care about the fans or the music, it's all about the money and he's OPEN about it.

Now he's making wine, and people LOVE it ... because everyone knows rock stars make the best wine. His association with the wine is the only thing extraordinary about it. If Maynard associated himself with a douche, the zealots would pay incredible prices for them (even the men) and all would agree that they're the BEST DOUCHES EVER! Nothing cleans a dirty vag like Maynards Douche! Because rock stars know all about dirty vag. Eventually the only way left to whore himself out will be reality TV, and the next fall line-up we're going to see "Tool of Love" on VH1. Excuse me while I retch for a while ...

Have you heard Puscifer? The only thing worse than the name is the music, period. I personally feel this is an experiment of Maynards to determine if his fans will actually buy ANYTHING he's a part of.

These are my closing statements - I have friends who listen to almost nothing but Tool ... who claim there is no better music to listen to in any situation. These people are sheep, and I am sometimes ashamed to call them my peers. They talked me into going to a Tool show once, and it was such a huge let down. After all their talk about how great Tool is live, it was the biggest disappointment of any concert EVER. The guy that runs the stage effects and laser show should have people groveling at HIS feet because his performance was the only one I enjoyed. They played ... and that was all. No real energy, no real emotion. Ever seen those animatronic musical groups at Disneyland, the Country Bears or some such? That's what it was like ... robots. Yes, yes, the music was PERFECT ... just like on the recordings. That's not why I pay for live shows.

But Dan Carey is one of my favorite drummers, and I would jump at the chance to attend one of his drum clinics. And I still like Tool, even though I wont spend another dollar to support them.

I don't hate Tool or Maynard. I wish them the best. But I wouldn't care if California fell into the ocean and sucked Arizona, Tool and every zealous fan along for the ride (Except Dan ... God should spare him, but only him LOL). In fact, I'd laugh so hard I'd probably die.

But again, this is only my opinion and I'm kinda crazy.
