From Blabbermouth:

TOOL are one of the first three acts to be confirmed for this year's Roskilde Festial, set to take place June 29 – July 2 in Roskilde, Denmark. Also scheduled to appear are FRANZ FERDINAND and KANYE WEST. More acts will be announced soon.

It was previously reported by Norwegian national TV channel TV2 that TOOL will play Norway's Quart festival in early July. Both the Roskilde and Quart performances are likely to be part of a European festival tour in the summer.

TOOL are currently in the mixing stage on their new album and are reportedly looking at an April or May release for the disc, their first since 2001's "Lateralus". A video directed by guitarist Adam Jones is also said to be in the works, with members of the band preparing to embark on an an international press tour for the new effort. More information will be made available soon.

sounds goos...maybe they will play Rock am Ring and Rock im Park too then which they have done at least twice already

What the hell?? Tool, Franz Ferdinand and Kanye West??

thats like putting cats and dogs in the same enclosure!

yeah, that struck me too
they probably won't have a lateralus-based setlist, but then again, they probably will, cause they're tool

i'm looking forward to their next album. Obviously only if it's like lateralus

You make it sound like a bad thing. That's what festivals should be, a complete variety of music.

Either way, Tool aren't the best festival band. Their best seen at their own gigs.

not a bad thing at all!
But that's for us, who like tool

i disagree, why should i suffer through Franz and Kanye?

I'm SOOOOOOOOOO gonna be there!

I heard from friends that saw them at Roskilde 2001, that it was their best show EVER because of the magnificent sound and the fantastic performance!
