Deftones Tour: Live guide + video footage

[Hank]

I don't recall ever hearing an Entombed performance where he didn't mess up on the chorus. If there's a good one hiding somewhere I'd love to see it, that song is amazing.

Deftones - Entombed (Paris - Le Trianon , Night 1 - 22.02.2013)

Not perfect but still the closest I think we will hear .

[TheRealist]

It's not only because he's getting older. Years of partying instead of resting and the throat problem he got on 2001 killed the power of his voice. Since then it's been a downhill until he bounce back a little since DE. Still he can stiil pull great performances on songs that don't request high notes, look at the recent RX Queen video, he sounded spotless.

[SwerveCityUSA]

his voice is better now. its more sultry and refined. teenager was always the most delicate song in the history of the deftones catalog. he might as well change the vocal arrangement to fit his voice now, it would be way better.

Ex-Fear Factory bassist Christian Olde Wolbers hit the stage with the Deftones in Los Angeles, CA this past weekend. Wolbers joined the band onstage during their performance of "Engine No. 9" with both stage-shot and fan-filmed footage posted below:

They were soooo fucking good. Only time he really sounded a bit off was entombed and teenager rest of the night he kept getting better and  better.  So what is this I will follow song?

[Corleone]

Sweet setlist, lhabia is one of my favourites.

[DeftonesNZ]

Excellent setlist, would've been better if all the songs were included. So Goon Squad wasn't played?

[sooniletugo]

"I Will Follow" is a song by U2.

[vinsanity]

Apart from RxQueen, same boring festival setlist, can they ditch Diamond Eyes and Rocket Skates as openers already?

[sooniletugo]

Nice to see Rx Queen being played, I love that song. I haven't seen them do Poltergeist at many festivals either. Wonder if we'll ever start to see more songs from KNY debuted?

[mrtast]

Here's the correct setlist

1. Diamond Eyes
2. Rocket Skates
3. Be Quite and Drive
4. My Own Summer
5. Tempest
6. Swerve City
7. Poltergeist
8. RX Queen
9. Change
10. Rosemary
11. Engine No. 9
12. Seven Words

[mrtast]

They had a full hour slot but they finished after 50mins which pissed off a few people, also, something must've been wrong with Chinos mic at the start because he threw at the ground and looked real pissed off with the tech.

[Jesus2Chino]

Chino seemed in high spirits for the gig though, lots of smiles. I was right in front of Chino there in Luisch's picture on the gate; good fun and great crowd.

You can't blame them for sticking primarily to singles for the set really--they rarely come to NZ, had to appease an audience not entirely comprised of their fan base, and had a really limited time on stage. I was expecting a set of singles, and was happy to hear RX Queen and Poltergeist played. They should have had Major Lazer play on the Tui stage after Pearl Jam and given the Deftones a longer set. That stage was finished after Arcade Fire before 8--just poor timetable management I think. Anywho, had a good time.

Much respect,

[DeftonesNZ]

I didn't end up going but I saw someone suggest something like that to the promoter but they said as part of the conditions of having it at Western Springs the main had to close after PJ probably due to noise of something and also the fact deftones wanted a night show limited their set time.

[ANattyRat]

I think expecting the same songs at a festival is understandable, because they're trying to introduce people to their band, for those that haven't heard them before, and possibly gain new fans. So they play the 'main' songs, songs they're more known for. Rx Queen is a nice addition though. As for 7 Words, well...I think humanity will be wiped out before we hear the end of that song.
