Could Tool Play at Las Vegas' Sphere in 2027? Their Drummer Says 'Maybe'
Tool aims to release a new album in 2027 and is negotiating a residency at the Las Vegas Sphere, a venue requiring significant investment and multiple shows to turn a profit.
- Recently, Tool said they are working on new music for a 2027 album and discussed a possible residency at the Las Vegas Sphere.
- On Spiral Out, Carey said Tool's concerts are `cinematic`, aligning with the Las Vegas Sphere's capabilities, and he recently toured the venue while discussing plans.
- Discussing logistics, Carey said `we're the perfect band for that` about a Sphere residency, while warning preparation is intensive and costly, and shows are needed to make money.
- Despite speculation, at this time neither Tool nor Metallica has anything booked for the Sphere, while sources told The Sun that Metallica is `90 percent` locked in.
- With both bands mentioned, industry observers say Metallica would bring a different feel to shows at the Sphere, and a commentator believes each band would excel there.
