tool MAG SINGER Maynard James Keenan performed in drag at the Welcome to Rockville festival Sunday night (May 21) in Daytona Beach, Florida, essentially challenging a new bill signed into law by Governor Ron DeSantis just a few days ago.
Severe Consequences Photographer Amy Harris took photos of Tool’s headlining set (as seen in the gallery below) at the Florida fest, where the band is playing its first show of 2023. Keenan wore a blonde wig, exaggerated red lipstick, and prosthetic breasts during the show.
This past Wednesday (May 17), DeSantis signed a series of bills targeted against drag shows and transgender rights. One bill in particular prevents minors from attending drag shows. Since Welcome to Rockville is an all-ages festival, Keenan is, in fact, breaking the new law.
Currently, Tool’s other scheduled dates in 2023 are at four other US festivals: Sonic Temple in Columbus, Ohio; Louder Than Life in Louisville, Kentucky; Aftershock in Sacramento, California; and Power Trip in Indio, California. Tickets to upcoming festivals are is here.
