All I want to focus is how great Deftones were last night, considering they have a friend in a coma and that they are not really teenagers, band members are in their mid-thirtys, and they still rock! They really rocked, I'm one of those fans that do not consider DE a master piece, well it's well produced and everything but it's not the real thing if you know what I mean....but its songs played live are another thing. SEXTAPE WAS THE HIGHTLIGHT of the night. Rocket Skates and Diamond Eyes sounded really good too. Everyone's been talking about Chino and how thin he is and how good he is right now, and yes he's fit. His voice sounded great, and I've never heard such good performances for Birthmark and Lotion like yesterday, he does sound like in the 90's. The rest of the band was as always on top too, Sergio seems to be fit in the band too, and if we didnt know Chi at first, we would say that Sergio has been there since the beginning. To sum up. It was their best performance I've seen live, not my favorite concert due to the short setlist and not including my favorite songs like: Lifter, Korea, DBath, Knife, Dai (I wonder why they dont play that for Chi, instead they played WGTB)....My advice is GO SEE THEM! If it's in a small venue, you wont be disappointed.

I loved SEXTAPE, but their performance for BIRTHMARK was huge, watch it till the end!

Meeting:

Nothing special, before the show I met White Wrist, and we found someone who helped us with the Meet 'n Greets. Chino was fast leaving the venue, so one photo and bye, the rest of the band, we met them in a small room with 30 or so fans in it, so it was not something special. Thanks to the people who lead us there and special thanks for the first SL member I met (never met someone before this, weird huh?), White Wrist is a hell of a fan, and I'm glad I met the right person for this, hope to meet you soon bro!

AWESOME! Sounds great and I totally agree on what I saw in Dortmund. It was one of my favorite shows too. Not the best but very good. Can't wait to see more.

Thanks for the review, Nuno. Sounds like as good as the Dortmund gig I've been to. I also advice to anyone to go see them, just for the mood and the atmosphere, you won't regret it.

Haha, yeah, I told him: " Dude, did somewhat punch you or what ? " and he answered: " Yeah, man... Nah, I actually got hit by my drumstick.  ;D "


Haha, gotta love Abe, he's really nice.
