Deftones Tour: Live guide + video footage

[sooniletugo]

Frankz0r thanks so much for that. You're the man for getting those.

I'm seeing them on the next show (pompano, Friday) and I'm just fucking disappointed. I've been a fully deftones fan for 13 years, I've only seen them once back in 2007 (I'm from Venezuela, don't judge me) so this will be my second show and yes I'm excited but ever since the first show of this your they played I don't feel the same. For god's sake I'm gonna hear almost the same songs I heard live back in 2007!!! What the fuck... Engine 9 and Root at the end. Again? For about what... 12 years? Cmon... Also I'm sure they're not even gonna play anything from s/t and snw just because they (chino) don't like it anymore. Yes I'm pissed off. The only way I would be happier it's gonna be if I get to meet the guys.

Fuck you chino!!! I know you are the bitch here.

Please tape MX and What Happened To You if they play them, you may be our only ally in this.

There you go, I recorded both

What Happened To You?:

I did my best.

The same setlist. No surprises here. It was a great show tho. Chino went crowd-surfing and it was great. I have that on video, I'll post it later.

DUDE, THANK YOU SO MUCH! I was thinking no-one was ever going to record it, haha.

That was an awesome performance of MX. It's weird they play WHTY, the chorus seems like it's tricky for Chino to pull off. So it's not even like the reason for the lack of Gore songs is that he can't do it.

See, if they got rid of Rocket Skates and a few others, they could add more Gore songs or even more rarely played/never played ones, instead of just MX and WHTY. Not that I'd be disappointed if they play these two songs in London, but...more new and rare songs!

I keep convincing myself that one of these days they'll play Pink Maggit.

Don't know why I do it to myself.

They might. They played Riviere, they played WHTY, why not Pink Maggit? One day. Basically, they'll play any song that isn't from their latest album. Thanks Deftones!

on a side note, I wonder why Frank doesn't sample the additional vocals in MX. the song sounds empty without the girl's voice.

I feel like that was always a crowd participation song. Back in the day, Chino would alternate his part and the crowd would yell the girls part and then when it came back around again the crowd would do Chino's lines and he would yell back the girls part. It was cool.

Should be easy:
LMIRL
Rubicon ( vocals are challenging)
Phantom Bride
Xenon
Doomed user

Challenging:
Hearts wires
Gore
Prayers Triangles (strange choice to keep considering high vocal)
Acid hologram (would love to hear a take on this)

No way (but it would be very cool):
Pittura infamante
Geometric headdress

The only hard ones are H/W, Phantom Bride, Geo and maybe Xenon .. Chino can pull of any of the vocals, his problem is that he keeps wanting to play the damn guitar. The guitar is what fucks him up bad, just look at the WHTY performance, the vocals are meh cause hes concentrated on too many things, look at Prayers, he had to stop playing his part cause it was too much.. If he could just calm his ass down and stop playing guitar, these live performances would be great. Cause ive seen him live, his voice is capable of doing anything, but once that guitar comes in to play, his voice changes and you can tell.

So here's another of my videos from last night, Chino doing verses of Meek Mill's "Believe It":

Really short but it's worthy.

I believe in Pink Maggit being played someday.

Good point. They never played This Place Is Death again after the Dallas gig though. But at this point I'm convinced there's a reason as to why Pink Maggit never came back (it was actually played on the very first two shows of the White Pony tour, two nights in a row (May 24 & 25) at the Phoenix Theater in Petaluma - as an encore too!). Sound wise, it is absolutely huge, and regardless of their personal taste, Stef and Chino both know this. I'm wondering if it's not one of these dark songs they don't want to play?

Might be, but that doesn't rule it out. When I saw them last time, they played actually quite a few songs from SNW. Might have been two shows though, not just one, but they played Riviere, Cherry Waves, Kimdracula and Hole in the Earth. Songs from an album Chino/the rest of the band hate revisiting. If they can do that, they can play Pink Maggit, I'm sure.

I feel like the reason has more to do with them having a large number of songs, and sadly mostly sticking to the 'hits' and classics. I'm surprised they're playing WHTY considering the vocals in the chorus, but I'm quite sure they will never play This Place Is Death or 976-EVIL live again. Too hard to pull off.

I can't talk about this without being sad that they're only playing two songs from Gore and still playing songs they've been playing in every single show since Diamond Eyes was released. If anyone meets them before a show, please politely explain to them how silly that is.

I have to say Rickets sounds pretty awesome

[sooniletugo]

Happy with Rubicon being the set closer, hope they keep it for every show including festivals so I can experience it next month

[ANattyRat]

I just want there to be more Gore songs so that every other album (minus self-titled and SNW) doesn't have more songs on the setlist than Gore. But hey, MX and WHTY, I'll be happy with that.

Video from the May 17th show @ St. Augustine Amphitheatre. The band is sounding great despite the mostly predictable setlist. (As others have said: MX, Prince, What Happened to You? are welcome additions, but I'm really hoping for a few more changes come the summer tour.)

! No longer available

Loving those lower screams in Prince (~28:25 and 29:50) and the bit of Black Sabbath in Around the Fur (53:18).

Postscript: Long time lurker, blah blah, blah.

sweet thanks for the upload

[sooniletugo]

That's the first time I've heard Chino play live the Rosemary intro that's on the album.

Awesome upload, thanks a bunch.

That honestly sounds fucking amazing.

[Inkblades]

It's amazing how pristine Chino's voice can still sound this deep into his career. Love the notes he's hitting on MX. I need this quality of singing on the new Team Sleep album in my life like yesterday.
