How Tool Ended Up Playing at Black Sabbath's Back to the Beginning Show

Tool recently played at Black Sabbath's Back to the Beginning reunion concert, which doubled as Ozzy Osbourne's farewell performance. They covered Sabbath's "Hand of Doom" and performed their own songs "Forty Six & 2" and "Ænema," sharing the stage with other rock and metal titans such as Metallica, Guns N' Roses, Slayer, Pantera, Halestorm, Alice in Chains, Lamb of God, Mastodon, Anthrax and Rival Sons.

Guitarist Adam Jones said Tool initially weren't going to take part in the star-studded event, but they changed their mind after realizing three of the band's four members had already committed to performing separately at the show with other musicians.

"It hit me, and I said, 'If the three of us are there – and I know Justin [Chancellor] will want to do it,'" Jones told Guitar World. "I went back to our people and went, 'Why don't we just do it? We're all going to be there.' That's how it happened – and why it was announced later."

Tool released their most recent album, Fear Inoculum, in 2019. It marked their first full-length since 2006's 10,000 Days.
