Interview: Maynard James Keenan from Tool, Puscifer, A Perfect Circle!

Maynard James Keenan, the man behind Tool and A Perfect Circle, sums up his newest project, Puscifer, like this:

"This has more in common with SNL than it does Metallica," Maynard said, chatting via phone from Arizona. "This is not a band; this is a troupe. This is a performance; not a concert."

Fair warning! The production, which meshes music, videos and sketch comedy, hits a handful of US cities this spring, including Royal Oak Music Theatre in Royal Oak, Mich. on March 23rd and 24th.

This the the convo I had with Maynard last week. We talked about Puscifer, plus his new documentary, Blood Into Wine.
