Tool or models?; Scriv's dilemma

Yup! Ok, now here's the problem: I have an invitation to purchase a concert ticket to watch Tool. Yes, the Tool, the band with all the mind-blowing contortionists in their music videos, the ones who did Parabol and Stinkfist and all that. The price ticket? The cost of one box of clanrats, one box of empire troops, and the odds and ends i need to do my latest conversion project.

So, watch Tool live, or buy more WH? Or do both, and fast for a month?

Difficult choice my friend, but considering their an American band (if my memory serves me correctly) then I wouldn't miss the opportunity to see them if I was you.

However, there are other ways of saving the money up to get the models as well. Buying and eating certain types of food for example. ;)

I've spent FAR less time going to the local boozer lately and th amount of money i've saved is phenominal. Pretty much a clanrat box in exchange for a night or two out.
There are ways if your clever about it. Trust me. Im saving up to pay off my student loan at the moment. Its going well so far, with the restrictions i've placed upon myself.

Watch the Band live. Even though Ive never heard any of Tools stuff, but seeing a band live is an awesome experience, and you can always buy Warhammer later...

The band for sure. Musical groups come and go, but Clanrats last forever :lol:

That's exactly the reason why I'd choose clanrats.

Buy the DVD (when it's on sale).
Ya know.. DVD's are forever as well.. it's a win-win. ;)

No they don't. Look at Scriv's sig for a good reminder! :P

Personally I wouldn't go to a concert, but I hate stuff like this, so that's not much help...

GO WATCH TOOL THEY ROCK!!!


seriously, i saw them at Werchter this year, and im hooked since, they are just awesomely good live, even better and more powerful than on the CD...µ


i envy you, seriously...


you can always get the models afterwards when you have the money again, but TOOL ain't coming back near you in a couple of years probably.
And if you buy the models, you'll glue them the night TOOL is playing, and you'll just think, aw i could've seen TOOL for this, but i wanted to glue you guys so bad...

how's that enough for going to see them perform? Its a real show they put up.

...you can still call me Rusty Tincanne if you want, though.

Go see Tool. I saw them at Lollapallooza 4 (the year Primus fronted the festival - what a great year! Rage Against the Machine and Fishbone played, too!). Tool was fantastic.

Definitely a band to see before they break up or die jsut for the atmosphere. Even more-so if you like their music.

Although fasting may help, or you may cut down on other things neccessary to live :P , or sell one of your organs? Or sperm? Do you get money for donating blood?

Go for the band man, go for the band. You can buy Warhammer whenever you want, you don't know how long it'll be until Tool re-appear near you, or the opportunity for one of their Concerts arrives.

Besides, Clanrats may not last forever, but there's always more where the last ones came from. You may lose these ones, but you'll get the next. :P

This poll is stupid...Noo only joking I choose...Fast as no one else will choose this poor lonely option and failing that incredibly harsh and silly idea go and watch Tool. I have not seen them live but they are a very good band.

I'm with mallekha and nurg on this one.

There is now only the choice of buying clanrats and fasting for a month... Now THAT is what I call a tough choice :blink: !

Cheers,

Alright guys, you've sold me... :D I just have a habit of putting tangibles over experiences when it comes to financial investments, but you're right. The concert is once in a lifetime, the clanrats are expendable, like everything else in the army. ^_^
