I don't think Zacky gets the credit he deserves, not only is he crazy good at rhythm but he can keep up with Syn on the dual parts.

Watching Matt go live without shades is like watching Slipknot live without mask.. strange ain't it?

Currently laying in bed at 3:41 am and I became nostalgic thinking about this video and how insane it was that The Stage was a surprise album. Legendary.

The best known skater and now a renowned drummer, well done Tony Hawk.

I think a7x is a band where you don't necessarily hear the bass but you absolutely feel it.

Johnny's backing vocals cracks me up, I will always see him as Matt's mini-me.

The new drummer is quality

Why do people keep complaining that Shadows' voice is gone, he can't sing anymore, etc etc?? To my ears, he's STILL slaying and his vocal skill is still one of the best. Yes it might be different from Waking The Fallen era if that's what you're comparing, but it's been more than a decade, so get over it. People change, so does physical stuff and vocal cords. PS: a7x is badass (as always).

Doctor: You have 30 minutes to live
Me:

Synyster Gates is a musical genius. The "The Stage" performance was just mindblowing.

I'll never understand how Syn plays so absolutely flawlessly, to be able to create the same tone pinch harmonic during a solo as the studio version a skill even masters of guitar find challenging, Syn is a fucking god

i live for johnny's backup vocals on nightmare AHAH

can't stop admiring how perfect and shiny Matt's teeth are

99% of everyone complaining has never gone on to do anything even remotely short of Shadows as a vocalist or musician. I don’t think anyone that isn’t in the industry could appreciate.

I love playing this really loud in my living room.. my neighbours must love it too, they threw a brick through my window last night so they could hear it better…

Johnny Christ gets his own microphone! He doesn't have to walk over to Syn's or Zacky's microphone! :P

Setlist:

1. Nightmare 00:00
2. The Stage 06:04
3. Planets 15:05
4. Acid Rain 20:59

You don't normally see Matt without his shades, especially performing live, it's almost like Slipknot performing without mask! He looks damn handsome!

Watching this 6 years after and it’s still amazing. Brooks’ fills and runs at the beginning of nightmare is just sooo clean, it gives me chills

Matt's voice during Acid Rain... Just wow!
