Been thinking a lot about Chi since I've read the news, I know them since Adrenaline came out, I was a big fan but I must be admit I kinda drifted away after White Poney came out. Coincidentally, a friend of mine put Adrenaline in her car stereo during some trip right before I learned about Chi's accident, so I checked out the S/T and Saturday Night Wrist after that and appreciate the evolution of the band, never understood and still can't understand why they keep on being labelled nu metal, this is so reductive....and so wrong!

Anyway, I so hope Chi will get well soon, I've been posting some encouragement messages regularly on the myspace page. He's been of my favourite bass player, love his screams and his stage presence is so powerful, fuck, his place is definitely not on an hospital bed, that guy must be on a stage, hair and bass flying in the air. Love that stage move by the way.

Much love and strength to Chi, his relatives and the Deftones crew,

I was so sad when I first heard the news about Chi, it almost made me cry. Having loved Deftones for this many years, I sort of feel like they're family, kind of. since then I've been scared. Scared for Chi first of all and his family and his Deftones family. Then for the band and their future.
But I want to hope and pray - so please Chi, Abe saw you resenting being in hospital even in your coma - please stay strong and fight. We need you.

In Bamboo Prachutes, in Beautiful - the poem for his wife, there's a beautiful line... (Everybody probably knows it)

QuoteBeautiful, she’s like rain
Witness,
Your winter in June, red lights, and the smell of stale sex
I’ll take a crane to you, there’s more cream than sugar in that grin
Looks like the death of a month in one less overlooked erection
The problem with hope and how easy it is to get fucked,
Paved with sharp cartilage and the national weather forecast
I’ll do anything not to be alone after I wake up from the storm of dreaming
The azaleas’ pink warm root
Don’t you know?
You can’t trust men who work on elevators

I respectfully apologise if I got any part of that poem wrong, my English isn't always that good  :)

I pray for you, Chi. <3

Why would SNW be the last album?  Eros is supposedly done on their end... right?   Just needs mastered and artwork?

We all hope so I guess. Any reliable sources about that?

people are more worried about this affecting the band then worrying about chi


who cares if they never release another album anyway. SNW was such garbage that i can care less about deftones

[size=11I wanted to start by saying what a fucked up mess this whole situation is!  Chi, I believe you are a truly righteous person.  I don't remember ever reading one negative thing about you.  I've been a Deftones fan for many years now and appreciate what a phenomenal musician you are.

I pray every day that you return to us soon and I feel you are the kind of person who can and will get past this.  My best wishes to you, your family and the Tones.

Peace.

Of course people are worried about Chi.   Jesus Christ.  Do you see the 40 pages here... and the other post about him.. not to mention the TONS of messages on their myspace for just CHI.    But on the other hand, people do wonder about the album. 

Not trying to be rude.. .but if you care less about Deftones... why even be on this board.    Sorry that you viewed SNW as such garbage.   *sigh*

Hey I like Fireal.  But I don't count this board as even the majority of Deftones fans considering seeing their fans at shows... or alllll the messages on their myspace.    But to just say.. " I could care less about Deftones' and then have issue with some people wondering how this will all affect the album..     

I wasn't trying to be a bitch.   But hey.   Just sayin...
