The Battery Cover also has Children Of Bodom’s Alexi Laiho on guitar
Whoever filmed that battery cover is a looser….Laiho is doing a killer solo and the guy films Trujilo doing basic bass chords.
That looks like Alexi Laiho of Children of Bodom playing guitar on Battery.
Man, those shows looked ridiculously amazing! Wish I could of been there.
Best wishes for Chi, progress is being made, hopefully he comes out of this in good health.
Im glad other people noticed Alexi as well and yea I saw that too. . . lets focus on trujilo when Alexi is tearin it up on that solo. Guess that guy had no idea what he was missing.
All that footage looked amazing I wish I could have been there. Too bad they didnt make that a small touring event to get money from all cities at a tour. Though I know not every special guest would have made it but they could have maybe had like one or two each night??
i think thats greg puciato on d.e.p. singin with chino on battery as well
i don’t think this news feed shoulda taken up as much space as it did. kinda shows bias when one band gets more exposure and other just get a mention, if that. It’s cool having video’s on the site, but to waste so much space on one topic.
Yea it is greg singin w/ chino on battery.
And well its a benefit for a fallen member of the Deftones pretty much everyone and their mother including tons of rock and metal bands are focusing everything on Chi in hopes that he makes a smooth recovery. I mean I agree they could have just posted the links to the videos or something to take up less space but at the same time something like this deserves it.
fmdof get the RSS feed. You don’t have to whine anymore
what an awesome show this would have been to see live
yah definitely to see all these artists come together.
super random to see sugar ray in there. haha he was boo’d.
I haven’t watched them all which video was sugar ray in?
I just want to fly…put your arms around me baby.
Cant believe its been a damn year since. We got a heavy cover of Elite recorded with a live video…how can I post it here?
