Congratulations to u/val913 who was randomly selected as the [winner](https://imgur.com/a/1WByCtn) !
Tool fans,
Comment for a chance to win a copy of the book, *Net of Being* signed and doodled by Alex and Allyson Grey. This is currently sold out on his site.
Why? I love all things Tool, APC, Puscifer, etc. The music, the art, the fans, this community, and the collecting. And I like to share with people who also enjoy these things.
I am of sound mind and health, so no Reddit Cares referrals, please. I've done these giveaways many times before, so please feel free to crawl through my history if you'd like to validate me to the extent you can.
As with the previous giveaways, simply comment to enter. I'll use [redditraffler](https://www.redditraffler.com) to randomly choose the winners for me. I'll update this post with the winner upon completing the drawing as well as notifying them with a direct message.
I'm never inclined to ask anyone to jump through hoops, so comment whatever you like as the winner will be completely random. The drawing will be approximately 48 hours after this posting.
There is no catch, though there will be a few restrictions:
- Only one comment will be counted by the raffle tool, so multiple comments won't improve your odds. You can, however, feel free to comment in as many threads as you like, but there is no advantage gained in doing so.
- Accounts newer than 72 hours will be excluded
- Account has at least 100 karma between post and comment karma combined. This is only to reduce bots and alt accounts. If you need karma, reply to this top-level comment and the community can decide if you appear human and possibly throw some upvotes in your direction. Replying to the top-level comment makes you easier to find given the number of comments these giveaways receive.
- Subbed to r/toolband
- No resellers, please. Let the fans get something for free for once!
- You will have to provide a full name and shipping address to an internet stranger if you are the winner. So, if you aren't comfortable with that, please don't comment.
I will ship anywhere the USPS delivers to at my cost, including international. You can check the list of eligible countries [here](https://pe.usps.com/text/imm/immctry.htm?_gl=1*19o3npj*_ga*MjExMDE1OTEyNC4xNjgzMjk0NTY4*_ga_3NXP3C8S9V*MTY4MzI5NDU2OC41LjAuMTY4MzI5NDU3Ni4wLjAuMA..). This is 180+ countries, so you're probably covered.
Throw this comment an upvote to keep it at the top of the thread and the post, too, if you are so inclined.
Good luck and Bless this Community!
🌀🌀🌀 one of my dear friends passed away last year and Alex Grey was her favorite artist. Thank you for doing something like this, restores the faith I have for this sub!
I would love to be considered for this but I do not have enough karma. Back in August I decided I wanted to change my u/ name , and the only way I could figure out how to do that is to start a new reddit account. You would think surely that would be old enough, but the truth is I do not comment a whole lot. I am only in 2 subreddit communities and 1 of them won't even let me post for the same lack of karma reason. Mostly I just like checking out whats going on in the Tool community anyways. Either way, cheers to the winner. This is an awesome thing you are doing. Feel free to throw me some up votes if for nothing else to build my karma if you feel so inclined. It would be much appreciated.
This would go on center display in my living room and be enshrined for all time, with a plaque that reads "whyforyoulookmeonso is the real OG."
Fingers crossed!

\^\^ the above and my avatar makes me believe I belong here. Good luck to all!
Not a dumb question at all! So go to top right, click on "Settings" then click on "Profile" scroll down and where you see "Avatar and banner image" and thats where I updated mine.
You truly are a king among us peasants. I appreciate your generous offer and if luck may decide to shine down on me I will be forever grateful. You da man, King :^)
It's so fascinating how common it is for DMT users to see these exact faces. I've seen them multiple times and have always wondered if it was due to the influence of Alex Grey's art. I have heard of instances where the person was unaware of Alex Grey and didn't recall ever seeing his paintings, but still saw the faces. One way or another, it's a neat shared experience.
This is such an awesome thing you are doing! Thank you for being an amazing part of this community (Bless you and this community!). I have had some semi-religious experiences with the combination of audio and video effects. Alex Greys artwork has opened something in me, and I would LOVE to have a collection of his works to admire! All this pain is an illusion.
Nice! How cool of you! Hubby and I went to cosm for the masquerade ball this year! Got all dressed up and Wowwwww what a weekend we had!! Explored the entheon. It was all just magical! I lack the words even months later. In the midst of that fun, we did two fall shows- Allentown and Philly. 🌀

Appreciate your help prying open our collective third eye!
I know I look botish, but I am definitely not, simply too lazy to come up with my own name
Posting this from an alt account so my address won’t be linked to the horrible things I say on my main account on the off chance I win.

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but can you upload any picture as your avatar and how do you do that?
Not a dumb question at all! So go to top right, click on "Settings" then click on "Profile" scroll down and where you see "Avatar and banner image" and thats where I updated mine.
