Maynard James Keenan is apparently in no hurry to work on a new Tool album.

Keenan's Puscifer Tool side-project have just announced a North American tour that will make its way through the United States and Canada from October to December. The jaunt is being described as "a performance art spectacle equal parts comedy cabaret show, guerilla theater, lysergic animation sequences, Krautrock-inspired metallic jams and leering lunacy of various stripes."

"Efforts to confine our beloved enigma to the southwestern United States have been thwarted," Keenan says. "We are compelled beyond all reason to bring the noise and share our special sauce. Although authorities suggest you be prepared for any and all possibilities, we simply suggest you arrive happy and hungry."

Puscifer released their V Is For Vagina debut album in 2007 and its V Is For Viagra remix album a year later.
