Yep, 29.  I started with White Pony (thanks to Circus Magazine) during the summer of freshman year of high school - perfect timing for a musical revolution in my life.  Then I went backwards, picked up ATF and Adrenaline.  By time ST came out, I had downloaded every bootleg, b-side, and demo that I could get my hands on.  Something that blows my mind is that the band has yet to release an official live DVD, but I guess the internet has made those kinds of releases less important as time has gone on.  There's certainly enough professionally-filmed content in terms of both live performance and candid interviews - I'm not sure what more an "official" DVD could say or do.  I'm rambling, don't mind me youngsters...now get off my lawn!!!

26, fan since White Pony Era.
I knew about the band just a bit before, but when you're on music like Limp Bizkit and Korn, you need a bit time to fell in love with Deftones.

23.
Remembered seeing the Change and BTS vids on mtv and thought they were pretty memorable but didn't look further into em till borrowing White pony and ATF from my bro in law, in 2006.
Then I bought SNW later that year and that solidified it for me.
Digital Bath, Knife Party, RX Queen, BQAD, and Xerces were the absolute clinchers.

28 I was 12 when i first heard My Own Summer on the Matrix VHS tape when they used to play parts of the soundtrack in the previews.  SL been here almost 10 years a fucking decade ago. Its just a shell of what it once was though.

20 Years old, fan since 2012. I've known Deftones for about eight years, but I never got the urge to look them up. When I did, I fell for Diamond Eyes instantly. <3 It was my second song; My Own Summer is cool, but not my favorite. Then I got to tell my mum they were coming to Europe and I got to go to Paris, where I became a true fan.

20, fan since 2010. I didn't know about them before, but I was only just getting properly into music around that time and happened upon Diamond Eyes. It was probably the barn owl that attracted me to it actually.

Just like you, but one year older.

I'm 20, the first time I heard them was when I was about 8/9 years old when they played "Change" in the Dragonball Z movie Coolers Revenge lol.

I didn't ever bother looking them up until about this time last year when I rediscovered them, then I only started really listening to Change, Minerva, Lotion & Passenger.
Then I found out they were having a concert in Lubbock TX in May 2014, so I started skimming through all of their albums and ended up going to the concert.
When I got back that's when I started really listening to everything and looking up the lyrics to every song, looking on this website for rares, listening to Chino's side project bands and looking up any features anyone from the band has been on, etc.
I wish I had discovered them earlier but at least I'm really into them now haha.

22 years old, fan since back to school came out, like 2001 or so, i had 8 or 9 years when deftones came to my country for the first time, and i was so young to go to their show, till the present day im sad of that, i hope to be able of dying like a deftones fan.

[hockball26]

33 years young.  Saw deftones first in 1996 when my cousin made me go to the Kiss reunion tour in Chicago and got me blazed for the first time as well.  Thought Chino was fucking crazy but blew me away...Kiss did not.  Saw them again later that year at the Rave in Milwaukee.  It was tough in 96 because most kids in Wisconsin thought they were gonna be part of fucking Death Row Records if they played Snoop, Dre and 2Pac enough times.  Once Around the Fur came out my friends started to understand what I was trying to tell them.

30 years old. Been a fan since I seen them perform at the 2000 HFStival in Washington, DC by accident. Whats crazy is the show has become one of the most popular Deftones bootlegs.

Since then, I have seen them play some great shows, in particular the 930 club in 2003 when they debuted Self Titled material live for the 1st time.
