Saturday: Maynard from Tool makes vino? Blood Into Wine screening at the Trocadero
![]() |
Meal Ticket would like to direct your attention to a screening of an odd and delightful documentary about booze and music and booze. This Saturday, March 20, at 10:30 p.m., head to the Trocadero to catch Blood Into Wine, a film about Tool/A Perfect Circle/Puscifer frontman Maynard James Keenan's quest to grow grapes in the Verde Valley of northern Arizona. "Wait, it's possible to grow wine grapes in Arizona? Ain't that the desert?" you may ask. Yes, it is very possible, especially when you're Maynard from goddamn Tool.
The doc features a few celebrity cameos Philly's Tim and Eric appear in a series of fake interview segments with Keenan but it's adamant in its focus on the musician's passion for viticulture. Even if you're not particularly into wine or particularly into progressive metal, it's worth checking out.
Check out the trailer after the jump. And peep out the food section of this week's City Paper dropping Wednesday night online and Thursday a.m. on the streets for a full review of Blood Into Wine.
Oh f*ck - You had me thinking Maynard was going to be in Philly. F*ck.
Maynard WAS in Philly. March 8 & 9 with his band / cabaret show Puscifer at the TLA. Which was awesome.
