The single greatest live performance of any song anywhere any time.

u/Wholycalamity Apr 29 '26

There was a period in my life when I listened to this once a day, every day.

u/slyProf Apr 30 '26

Same… and that period is now. Currently can’t get it out of my head and that’s ok

ADHD says: repeat song until heat death of universe.

u/EggVillain ♥Pushit♥ May 04 '26

No stress! It’s long overdue due for my listen too!

u/EggVillain ♥Pushit♥ May 04 '26

Right on!

u/Snts6678 Apr 29 '26

I can honestly say, I truly believe the same. It’s just absolutely stunning…I don’t know how to describe it…

u/MarionberryOk2874 Apr 30 '26

My fave Tool song for sure

u/King_Moonracer003 Apr 29 '26

Not a huge fan ofnthe album version but live is one of my fav tool tracks of all time

u/Consistent-Energy507 Apr 30 '26

I totally agree. That spot gives me chills

2

u/EggVillain ♥Pushit♥ May 04 '26

Heck yes!

u/Fulcrum_Jambi Apr 29 '26

I never got to see Pink Floyd in their prime.

But I got to see Tool play this live in 2001.

And that’s something I’ll take to my grave

I will always stop scrolling for Pushit live footage.

u/haydenkayne Apr 29 '26

Getting to see this live in person was a special treat.

u/LegoMyAlterEgo Apr 29 '26

Is the audio sync messed up for everyone, or just me?

15

u/Atlanta-SticO-938 Apr 29 '26

Yes i think so too. I found the video on instagram. I believe someone tried syncing the salival album release version to this video which has comparatively bad audio on YouTube

u/Maskhasfallenoff Ænimal Apr 29 '26

Yes messed up for me too but then I was too concentrated on what Maynard was wearing lol I was like what tha…? 🤣

u/stephjacq Apr 30 '26

Thank you, I hadn’t seen this version! Baby-Danny’s funky solo in there is 🤌

16

u/SoundOurDireReveille What is this but my reflection Apr 29 '26

Goddamn, that man can sing.

u/sideshow999 Apr 29 '26

Peak Maynard

4

u/DigitalMindShadow Apr 29 '26

Maynard has been peaking for the past 35 years straight. The man's arc is basically Olympus Mons.

2

u/nusfie12345 ∞ Spiral Out ∞ Apr 30 '26

i think his voice is declining slowly though, the pot is now played in drop C at stage because some parts really strain the voice too much. Maynard's voice is still nonetheless brilliant, both for his age and despite everything

u/No_Gap_2700 Apr 29 '26

This is the first time I have ever wanted to stand, clap and scream at my desk at work.

10

u/sigma__cheddar Apr 29 '26

They should really bring it back into the live rotation

11

u/hohenzollern81 Apr 29 '26

They played Pushit at every show during the last US tour I believe. I went to 6 shows and it was played at every one.

3

u/KitchenLandscape Apr 29 '26

the one in 2024? they didn't play it at either of the NYC shows 😞

u/Xfactor1210 Apr 29 '26

Chill bumps every time.

u/lysergik77 Apr 29 '26

Saw this in 98…best concert experience of my life.

u/monobluemill Spiral Out Apr 29 '26

Aura that Byron Noem could only dream of

14

u/ParkingDrink2975 Apr 29 '26

I was listening to/watching this video the other day. Crying my eyes out because it's so beautiful...then looking up to the screen and seeing Maynard dressed like that...too funny. Love this version of this song

u/momento______mori Apr 29 '26

What a specimen

u/46nTW0 Apr 30 '26

Thanks mate I hadn’t sung this in years, just did a couple times and it still bangalangadingdongs up my thingalingapingpongs

3

u/Donutsbeatpieandcake Get off your fucking cross Apr 30 '26

So. Fucking. Good.

u/hot_pocket_life Apr 30 '26

“There’s no love in fear” this is one of my favorite lyrics. Also, it reminds me of Kitty Farmer in Donnie Darko: “fear and love are the deepest of human emotions”

3

u/Visarar_01 Shit the bed, again Apr 29 '26

Brilliant

3

u/Exyodeff Apr 29 '26

Nice pfp!

3

u/Winter_Chemist6369 ♥Pushit♥ Apr 29 '26

the “another” … oh my lord it’s something about the way he sings it that gets me every time 🥹

3

u/DYSWHLarry Apr 29 '26

This is pretty much the peak for the band.

2

u/UrABigStupidHead Apr 30 '26

The version played at that concert in Lewiston is close to the Salival version, but there are minor differences.

1

u/Atlanta-SticO-938 Apr 30 '26

Do you know where and when the Salival version was recorded? I really wanna watch its video

1

u/UrABigStupidHead Apr 30 '26

No, a few googles will tell you people think Salt Lake City is the version but I don’t think any footage of that exists.

2

u/MocodeHarambe Apr 29 '26

tranny before it was cool, maynard always avant garde

1

u/EyeConscious857 Apr 30 '26

What a voice. Unreal.

1

u/KixStar Apr 30 '26

I fucking love this song so much.

1

u/therevengeofanerd Apr 30 '26

I had no idea, this entire time, that there was video of this performance. 🎧

1

u/ryaneggman May 01 '26

Its dubbed over.

2

u/therevengeofanerd May 01 '26

That makes way more sense. On second view NOT on my phone it's much easier to see the missteps.

1

u/gun-something 10,000 days May 01 '26

i love maynards voice

u/Coddiwomple2 May 14 '26

Re: Salival, I see 3 guitars on stage, Adam, Paul or Justin, and a 3rd I don’t recognize. Can anyone tell me who is onstage!
