The band's signature pyrotechnics show, a staple of their energetic sets, caused minor damage to the Chicago Bulls' six championship banners, forcing their removal from the arena's rafters. These iconic banners, commemorating the Bulls' dominance in the 1990s under Michael Jordan, will remain absent for the rest of the NBA season as repairs are underway. Despite the incident, Disturbed's hometown show was a sold-out success, celebrating the 25th anniversary of their breakout album, "The Sickness." The band, formed in Chicago in 1994, has yet to comment on the incident, but their performance certainly left a lasting impression on the city's sports landscape.” _ - _ -

Upcoming Albums, Tours, More _ _ _ _ _ _ “Last weekend, progressive rock band TOOL faced a backlash from fans at their inaugural TOOL In The Sand festival in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic. The event, which featured performances by Primus, Mastodon, and Coheed and Cambria, was marred by TOOL's decision to play similar sets on both Friday and Saturday nights. Despite promises of unique performances, the band repeated four songs—"Fear Inoculum," "Rosetta Stoned," "Pneuma," and "Jambi"—leaving fans feeling shortchanged and prompting boos at the end of the second show. The high cost of attending the festival, which required purchasing vacation packages, further exacerbated fan disappointment, with some even considering a class-action lawsuit. This reaction highlights the high expectations fans have for TOOL's live performances, which often feature complex and atmospheric music that explores philosophical themes.” (Perplexity) ___ ___ Hosted by: Luke = https://bsky.app/profile/rockednet.bsky.social Alex = https://bsky.app/profile/voiceofalex.bsky.social Rowan = https://bsky.app/profile/rowbuck01.bsky.social
