Progressive rock veterans Adam Jones and Danny Carey of band Tool perform an unexpected concert to kick off the Canelo vs. Crawford boxing encounter
Adam Jones and Danny Carey's Electric Performance at Canelo vs. Terence Crawford and Black Sabbath's Extravaganza
In a thrilling turn of events, guitarist Adam Jones and drummer Danny Carey of the acclaimed rock band Tool made a memorable appearance at the Canelo vs. Terence Crawford boxing match on September 13, at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas. But that wasn't their only performance that month.
Just a few days prior, Jones and Carey joined forces with the legendary Black Sabbath and Tool's bandmates from Tool, for a spectacular event that left the audience in awe. The date of this momentous occasion isn't specified, but the performance was nothing short of electrifying.
During the Black Sabbath event, Jones played an Antique Silverburst Gibson Les Paul, as he and Carey delivered a prog rock spar that lasted a captivating 75 seconds. The setlist included iconic tracks such as Forty Six & 2, Ænema, and Hand of Doom.
Jones, who found inspiration in Tony Iommi's career, cited the Black Sabbath guitarist as a source of inspiration for his guitar playing. Iommi, who is missing parts of his fingers, has proven to be a professional and amazing rockstar, leaving a lasting impact on Jones' perspective of his own capabilities.
The Black Sabbath event also marked a significant moment for Tool's upcoming album, as Jones and Maynard James Keenan revealed that it will include a riff heavily inspired by Black Sabbath. The specific name of this riff remains undisclosed, but Jones mentioned having riffs that sound like Black Sabbath, which may appear on a future Tool song.
Despite being in the writing process, the progress of Tool's upcoming album is moving forward, and fans are eagerly anticipating the band's return with fresh music. The highly anticipated fight between Canelo and Crawford was also streamed on Netflix, with Crawford winning by unanimous decision.
Jones and Carey's performance at the Black Sabbath event was not their first time collaborating outside of Tool. The duo's chemistry and talent continue to shine, whether they're performing with Black Sabbath or creating their own unique music with Tool. The Black Sabbath event saw a special performance alongside Tool's bandmates, making it an unforgettable experience for both the band and the audience.
