TOOL Guitarist Performs National Anthem At 'WWE Summerslam'

August 15, 2011

Metal Injection has uploaded video footage of TOOL guitarist Adam Jones performing the U.S. national anthem, "The Star-Spangled Banner", live last night (Sunday, August 14) at the WWE Summerslam wrestling event in Los Angeles, California. The clip can be viewed below.

TOOL frontman Maynard James Keenan last month gave The Pulse Of Radio an update on the band's next album and warned fans not to believe everything they read. "We're just always writing and it's just progressing as it progresses," he said. "We normally don't say anything about anything until it's actually happening, because there's a lot of people online that apparently can't read very well. I put an April Fool's notice up there for the album release, and it was this year, 2011, I said, 'New TOOL album, such-and-such a date, 2009, and everybody ran around like, 'Oh, really, the new TOOL --?' God, you guys are dumb. I swear to God. You've got to read. Please, read."

TOOL has not issued a new album since 2006's "10,000 Days".
