MENSREA will be touring in support of its sophomore release, "Media Coil Interrupt". GWAR side project DBX (DAVE BROCKIE EXPERIENCE) was originally rumored to be the support act on this tour.

Danny Carey from TOOL was a member of GREEN JELL for five years, and played drums on the album "Cereal Killer". He is also featured in the video for "Electric Harley House (Of Love)", among others. Maynard James Keenan, the vocalist for TOOL, was also once a "member" of GREEN JELL. On the song "Three Little Pigs", Maynard sang backing vocals (he sings the falsetto "Not by the hair of my chinny-chin-chin.") Maynard is also mentioned in the song "Green Jell Sucks" in the lyric "Maynard, and Poopie - they're both insane!"
