Ions, Skits, and Run Ronnie Run

Reported by erun

Danny Carey, drummer of Tool, has written an article about Rennes-le-Chateau, a region in France which appears in various bits of literature mentioned by Tool. The article appears in a magazine called Dagobert's Revenge, but the text of it is not available online yet (no doubt it will be someday on toolshed.down.net). An article about the popularity of negative ions appeared today on cnn.com, so now you can gain some more insight into the meaning behind the fourteenth track off Ænima. Seasons 1 and 2 of the HBO sketch comedy show "Mr Show" came out on DVD Tuesday, which is important to because Tool members Maynard James Kennan and Adam Jones are featured in one of the Ronnie Dobbs sketches in episode 1 on disc 1. Some of you may be wondering what is up with the release of the movie "Run Ronnie Run", which features the song "Ass Kickin' Fat Kid" by Titannica (Maynard and others); latest word is that New Line Cinema may not release it, but another studio might. The song, by the way, was posted to the movie's site a while back, but now you should probably consult your favorite MP3 finder to locate it.
