Tool - The Pot Live Performance at Download Festival in Castle Donington

Venue: Download Festival Location: Castle Donington, UK Date: June 16, 2019

During the live performance of "The Pot" at Download Festival on June 16, 2019, Tool was in a significant phase of their career, marking their return to touring after a lengthy hiatus. This performance came after the release of their fifth studio album, *Fear Inoculum*, which was launched on August 30, 2019. This album was particularly noteworthy as it was their first new material in 13 years, following *10,000 Days* (2006). The anticipation was palpable among fans, and the Download Festival performance served as a powerful moment of reestablishing their presence in the live music scene. In addition to their unique blend of progressive rock and metal, Tool is known for their elaborate visual and auditory experiences during performances, which were likely showcased in this live setting, enhancing the audience's experience as they re-engaged with the band’s complex compositions and lyrical themes.
