Woop. No surprise that Deftones are there.. I am surprised that they're 3rd on the name list though!

really? still?

Na, they're on just before Rage!

Cheers for that dude, gutted I'm missing it. But I saw a blinding show a few weeks ago so I can't complain!

Stef always comes out with the funniest shit..

But don't go expecting pillars of flame - the Sacramento band are leaving that to the, er, richer bands...

"Us playing our music is the production," continued Moreno. "I don't think we're going to have fire or anything like that. But I shouldn't say that, who's to know what will happen?"

"Whenever that fire thing goes off, you may as well just light money on fire," laughed guitarist Steph Carpenter. "That shit costs a lot of money."

Excellent set, over an hour of pure Deftones joy. I think Passenger got a great reception, but it was nice to hear them play through such a monster of a sound system. Also, Chino was great on the whole... the first time I have seen them on around 3 years and he looks a changed a man.

Fav song: 7 Words & Beauty School. That helped me with the chick I was with lol. But seriously the dynamics of Beauty School sounded so fucking special, with the big stage lighting etc.

Chino sang The Kill with 30seconds to mars again.

The Kill - 30 Seconds To Mars (with Chino Moreno)

[Starz]

It was probably one of the best times I've seen Deftones play. Everyone looked super happy to be there, especially Chino. I'm still finding their older stuff translates much better live than the stuff off of Diamond Eyes but maybe that's just me. Sex Tape sounded great though and that's my girlfriends favourite song by them lol.

I'm not that big a fan of Rage so went to check out 30 Seconds instead...I remember last time the two bands played the same festival Chino came out to help sing and it was great to just see him appear on stage without any introduction. Good times

[Sugartolove]

Deftones were good live. Thought Chino's voice was good at ULU and it was still really good live. Everybody did well and seemed happy - it was just fun, if very short. Chino rocked Passenger I think.
Kind of wished I had chosen 30STM over Rage now but ddin't know if I'll ever have a chance to see Rage again so i chose them, and they were good live 

Some photos.. I didn't manage to get any of Frank and only one of Stef, but got more of the others.

I'm so pissed I missed this show, but man, when they headline Download, I'm not missing that for ANYTHING!!

Anyway, this scream is now my new all time favourite by Chino I think.. holy fuck. You know when it kicks in

Frank made the scream sound that long, Chino didn't pull that off entirely.

Frank made the scream sound that long, Chino didn't pull that off entirely.

Course he did, it's pretty obvious when  the delay kicks in, around the 1:33 mark and then he stops. It's fuckin' sick.

[Vesanic]

The sickest one I've heard is the one from the Roy Wilkins 2006 I think... I uploaded that some times ago but youtube fucked me up. I should re-upload it.

Actually saying that, I'm still torn by the recent Passenger scream, at the end, can't remember what show it was, think it was their second show after Diamond Eyes dropped and then the echo carries the growl as that that last chord hits and the song ends. It's just unreal..

And I almost forgot this. The bit where the woman usually screams, he screamed instead, but this video does it no justice at all. It fuckin' hurt me ears when he was doing them, made it all that more violent and aggressive.

I know what you mean! haha because of the fact if he could kill off any song, it'd be that one? lol

[Starz]

Just to add some geeky info... it'll be the sound engineer who adds all the delay to Chino's vocals, not Frank... I wish I could be back at Download now watching it all over again.

[Sugartolove]

Yeah  It's funny when he told us in an interview how Kobe/his son loves that song - Out of ALL their songs it had to be that one Kobe liked.. The one that Chino would quite happily never play again lol
It must be quite cool to be able to write a song like that at 15 though, a song that still speaks to so many people, new generations of fans.. Some 15 year olds I know can hardly wipe themselves yet lol
