Tool frontman and vino aficionado Maynard James Keenan's on-the-sly musical endeavor, Puscifer, is set to headline two nights at downtown Phoenix's Orpheum Theatre this December. Lucky for you, tickets are available this Friday, October 9, at 10 a.m. via Live Nation.

Apparently, Keenan leaves behind that dark, brooding, plz-don't-look-at-me persona he turns on during Tool performances. Puscifer is "definitely not thinking man's music, but groove-oriented music that makes you feel good," per a Rolling Stone interview Keenan did with Thurston Moore's evil twin, David Fricke.
