[deftones86]

Saw them play boys republic and if only tonight we could sleep

HOB in 07? I forget which night if not both that they played them...

Edit: Just found the setlists from both nights...

May 15, 2007 HOB Dallas (rarities):
Damone
Mascara
Can't Even Breathe
Rats!x3 (probably not too rare, but obviously now it is)

May 16, 2007 HOB Dallas (rarities):
The Boy's Republic
Dai The Flu
If Only Tonight We Could Sleep
Headup (not a rarity, but they closed with it and 7 Words wasn't played at all)

it was the same night. the chick i was with at the time had talked to the band after the first show and told them it was my 21st birthday and asked would they play IOTWCS I couldn't stop playing that song back then. but they played it and told me happy birthday but chino fucked up my name haha

Deftones House of Blues 5-16-07 TX

[x Rx King x]

I saw them play Good Morning Beautiful and Teething back in 2003 when they played at Webster Hall in New York... So thankful I got to see them play GMB before they stopped playing it entirely.

Haven't been around in a while everyone! Good to be back.

Cool shit I've seen in my 41 Deftones show career:

- Boys Republic
- opening a show with Damone
- Street Carp live in NYC in 2000
- Chino stopping the show in Philly in 2000 in the middle of Lotion to let me on stage
- Pink Maggit actually being the intro to BQAD before it was recorded.

Those are standouts..still hoping to hear Combat live one of these days.

Saw them play boys republic

Im so envious dude!

[chise117]

If Only Tonight We Could Sleep, Minus Blindfold, Lhabia, Rickets, Lifter and the 7words/Say it Aint So combo back in 07 at various shows. Mascara in 01.

[whipsy77]

I'm not sure if it was a good thing or not, but during a Sydney show in 2003 (a solo side show for the big day out tour) I saw the deftones perform a song with Xibit.

[Vesanic]

Heard The Boy's Republic and the only performance of Combat ever because we had asked for them.

Heard Dai The Flu in 2003, which was a rarity, during my first concert ever. Heard Battle-Axe too, which became one.

Heard Passenger with Maynard, Combat, Rapture, part of Rats!, 976-EVIL, the Diamond Eyes outtake, all during various soundchecks through the shows I've been to.

Chino asked me "Is it okay with you if we play a song from White Pony?" during the Combat/The Boy's Republic show.

Been to the only show they have opened with Royal. Heard Needles and Pins, Hexagram, Kimdracula and a couple more rarities during that same set.

[nicklav]

Riviere, Fireal on the latest tour.

Dai the Flu, Lhabia, Battle Axe in 2003.

Anniversary of an Uninteresting Event at the Chi Cheng Benefit show.

Edit: Heard Rickets once too I believe, but I don't remember when. I've seen them 11 times so far.

[el perro]

Closing with Fireal (including the ending) at London Scala in 2006.

Tiny secret show. Their encore was Adrenaline track-by-track.
Whilst not my favourite DT record, it was pretty epic.

Yeah I was there.

[laurapalmer]

NYC guerilla tour show.
First time Riviere verse was ever played.

Guerilla tour was in 2003/04 if I'm not mistaken...? That really happened?

Yeah it happened in 2003. It was actually the first time I saw them live. It was a weird dynamic I really haven't seen since. If memory serves the tour was announced on wednesday, went on sale friday and the show I went to was that Monday.

[Vesanic]

2004 would make more sense as some of they started working on SNW in 2004 if I'm correct, but I'll take your word for it.

[the deft ones]

They played Damone when i saw them on the '99 Warped Tour.
Its wasn't so much a rarity at that point in time though, ha.

[thewanderer]

The opening credits of Entertain Me has an audio clip of Chino talking about the crowd and saying that he didn't want to say "This is the baddest shit ever!" and then go play another show and say the same thing to another crowd. It was at the Milwaukee show i was at on 11/11/2000. Taproot and Incubus opened. I bought the back to school t-shirt which is starting to look like hell but it will always be my favorite. I'd kill for the video or audio for that show. Still the favorite of all the shows I've seen.

May of '03.

also have seen Minus Blindfold and Rickets multiple times which shouldnt be considered rare but it is.
Also have seen If Only Tonight We Could Sleep, Battle Axe, Good Morning Beautiful and Lotion once.

I'm not sure if it was a good thing or not, but during a Sydney show in 2003 (a solo side show for the big day out tour) I saw the deftones perform a song with Xibit.

haha yeah back to school

[lungdamage]

i saw lupe fiasco going apeshit to them once haha

[luisch]

Almost full SNW (Hole in the Earth, Kimdracula, Rats! Rats! Rats!, Cherry Waves, Xerces) in 2007, Bogotá and Caracas gig

Riviere, Fireal on the latest tour.

No Ordinary Love live (Bogotá)

[normsteez]

I know it's a shot in the dark, but do we have any fans here that have been to concerts in the Around the Fur era that got to hear Mx...and that song apparently wasn't as common as the rest of the album live. 

If there's one song that I would love for them to play live, out of all the songs they haven't played in years...it's fucking Mx.

Seen them play MX live in 2007 in DC.

Wrong. It was. Even at festivals. The ATF songs that got played the least during the ATF era were Rickets and Lhabia.

[slyartwork]

- Waldrock
- Seeing them play Damone and Teething live
- Chino's stage diving era
- Stef jumping while playing guitar
- I sang Headup with them in 2003
- Chino's pants dropping at Lowlands 1998
- Deftones/GlassJaw tour
and the list goes on and on

Where did you sang Headup with them!? that's awesome!.

During the sep 2003 tour they would let a fan onstage at every show during the break to finish the song with them. I was lucky enough to be invited onstage to sing with the band in Rotterdam, The Netherlands.
