Video: 1,000+ Tool Fans Listen to Fear Inoculum at Burning Man

After more than a week of burning men, this year’s Burning Man ended yesterday. Don’t be too hard on yourself if you didn’t realize it was even happening — I certainly didn’t. My brain’s not clogged with enough patchouli to go in for that kind of thing.

ANYWAY, I mention it because apparently artist Alex Grey, a longtime Tool collaborator, showed up and played the band’s new album, Fear Inoculum, for more than 1,000 fans. You can watch video of that blessed event below. It’s amusing, yes, but the most entertaining part, by far, is watching the 65-year-old Grey go totally nuts while the record plays. I guess working with Tool isn’t just some work for hire job for Grey, huh?
