  • "A Perfect Union of Contrary Things'' is the authorized biography of musician and vintner Maynard James Keenan. Author Sarah Jensen's 30-year friendship with Keenan gives unique insight into his history and career trajectory. The book traces Keenan's journey from his Midwest childhood to his years in the Army to his time in art school, from his stint at a Boston pet shop to his place in the international spotlight and his influence on contemporary music and regional winemaking. A comprehensive portrayal of a versatile and dedicated artist, ''A Perfect Union of Contrary Things'' pays homage to the people and places that shaped the man and his art.
    It is the time of the summer solstice, the longest day of the year, a day celebrated across cultures and across millennia as time of new beginnings.
    “It’s a story, a metaphor for stepping into the light. All stories are true, whether or not they’re factual. They have power, and tapping into them puts us in a headspace that anything is possible.”
    -Maynard James Keenan

    I get all weepy when I really sit down and watch this. Maynard has a huge gift for lyrics/words, and they just hit me, so deeply. When they played in Denver a couple weeks ago, the show was absolutely amazing, the whole crowd was like one entity and we all cheered and screamed at the same times and sang along for all of it. Everyone stayed until the last second to thank the band members, too. not many people were running out worrying about the traffic. it was like, the best Tool experience I've had. I'm still on a high from it, and I'm sad that I didn't have the money the night of the show to get a ticket to this because its sold out now. :( MJK... you make me a better more thoughtful person, and I love you for that!

    Maynard awakens the soul with in. Just his words are enough to quicken the soul. His presence must be so much more.

    I've been reading the book. I am about almost halfway done with it. Some of the clips from this trailer are nice to see and help add to his story. It's like there are plenty of small pieces to a big puzzle that I have been putting together to understand Maynard's story and inspiration.

    currently on that path that trancends reason to full fill ourselves in life.. and the mirror image.. along with the route to communicaton with the collective unconscious.. pulling those masks off.. lets be honest coming to terms with who you are after repeated failure due to fear of letting go of things that prevent you from wholeness and becoming aware of the process just recently.. certain things just made sense one of those being there are groups and individuals alive and well with knowledge that they shroud in secrecy or make hidden that could help humanity... knowledge gained and not shared is ignorant it should be given freely.. but its coming fuckers.. cant wait for this shift and thanks Maynard for the little tid bits you threw to the masses over the years..got to go and prepare for a meeting with The ender of all things
