Also thank you for continuing and not relapsing into Tool-mode of 8 years, what a bunch of assclowns.

What we've heard on the video will probably change so many times before the final cut - Another Stone IMO was one of the best they've done recently - I never tire of listening to it.

i wish those bits in 9 came back at some point in it but it's another, always really, solid song for sure.

That would be outstanding! Not holding my breath though. My first Echolyn show was them opening for Dream Theater in 1995, one of the few shows they got to do during the ill-fated Sony deal. Became an instand fan, and it made me believe that maybe, just maybe there are a few bands out there still playing prog. I had no idea just how right I was! So Echolyn was the very start of my introduction to the massive prog underground, even if technically they were not underground for a brief time. And after all these years, they are still one of my favorites.
