one of the few killer band to stop by new orleans ALOT on tours.much appreciated!! wish more bands would do the same. the fucking rap scene ruined the new orleans metal crowds.
look man, 1 $30 is a rediculous amount of money to see an awesome metal band where im from and 2nd labels give money to bands to record those shit hot albums u here on the radio. Without them (sry to say) they r garage pro tools bullshit. You need a decent manager to make sure u arent ripped off!
@MrCavey666 Simply that it just isn't that simple. Sure, good management is vital, but when it comes to life (especially this type of life), things go awry a lot. My Dad is in the music industry. It's easy for things to fuck up.
@metatronsfury Yeah that's pretty much all I was saying. Ive been playing in bands for 20yrs and just about to bring out our next album. Also, we've been lucky enough to be signed to a major middle of next year. All im saying is if you have heaps of cash you can get away with doing it yourself but more often then not the label has to help in alot of areas. Theres varying deals out there. Our deal is called a 360 where the label gets a piece of cds, merch, gigs etc. Its a gamble either way.
I cant stand the way the music industry is it doesn't make any since that the label takes the ARTIST'S album sales money and are left to strive off touring like WTF!? its their art , their product!
I've only seen Sevendust live ONCE. Out of all the concerts I have seen in 30 years, this was one of the best ever. These guys rock and give 110% on stage. Would pay to see them again in a heartbeat.
Dude..I would drop $30 a MONTH to go see Sevendust! They are the best band I've ever seen live..their energy is just unreal and they sound like the album. They are amazing. AMAZING!
Trent said as well as several others including 7d and that is the industry needs to change, the whole system, artists new and even old established ones can't make money. we as artists need to adapt but work together and skip the corporate middle man once and for all. So I'm currently thinking long and hard about some solutions...personally being at it for a decade making albums and playing on and off bands that ran out of steam because we can't make any money even with quality music n promotion
Hey Sevendust - I'm a new fan from just a couple years back. Now my wife is a fan from just last year. You are POWER. I guess I was confused to not see the bald guitarist running around on the last show and that was odd. He brought a lot of energy - but perhaps that was disruptive. I feel for you on the misery of the limelight. We fans get to go home to nice cozy beds and you get a tourbus bumping through the nights... Can't wait for the next show.
@JohnnyAppleBag6 If you have to ask about this, save your money cause you are a jackass...Unless your 11 years old and still not sure if you should wear girls jeans... Change your heads if you dont like the sound! Dont be a chump.
And even if you said this when I FIRST put that comment here,it wouldn't have changed shit, your opinion means nothing because you are an insignificant little pussy.
@x7dust91x I've lost track of how much money I've dropped to see them and for merchandise and you know what? I'll keep on dropping money for these guys they're worth every dollar nickle dime, quarter and penny
Musicianship...close to the guy who runs the zipper at the local carnival! I'm a drummer and totally upset of what has happened to our music careers...
@ShadowoOfBlood lol true i must of seen these guyz almost 15 times since they started touring love em
ment them 1 time also they are wicked chill me and like 6 of my friends just snuck into the tour bus area and chilled with them they thought it was cool that we snuck into there to see them we need more bands like these guyz nowadays instead katy perry what a whore
i fucking hate how business fucks and manager assholes rip off musicians! It pisses me off! Sevendust is an awesome fucking band and they would be the biggest fucking band in the world if they had honest hardworking people behind them.
This is just SHOCKINGLY TERRIBLE how a band like this has to live by cutting corners just because the record labels got their fucking share of the green. It's downright disgusting that big recordcompanies policies lead to bands like these in near-bancruptcy. Seriously. The Music Industry is *FUCKED UP*
I totally agree MechaAkuma. Despite the fact that Sevendust is incredibly talented, they had to deal with all this shit. Yet, if it's bothering them, they don't let it show. They have sold millions of records worldwide, yet the choose to stay under the radar. Sevendust 4 life :)
Their's always gotta be a fan that says "THEY FUCKEN SOLD OUT" I don't think they did, They have stayed Alternative Metal for a while now. They for sure are'nt Nu Metal. Different song structures in nu metal. Also sevendust do not perform just for money. they wanna have some fun instead of sittin around at home livin the normal life. I respect em for that =)
I never thought they sold out,they have different sides of them that makes them interesting. Love the first album alot,the rest are badass as well and they are a great live band
Play for passion sake is misleading. People who do that have either another job or business that actually pays the bills. On the other hand. Why not tour in the UK or outside US where Sevendust is popular
People are so fucking stupid on youtube man!!!!! Did you not hear the narrator? she said that they could either starve their family or tour for money!!! bands need money like any other job in the world. saying they shouuld play for passion (which they do) is like saying that a janitor should clean for the art of cleanliness fucking retards!!!!
You know you should give them a break and yeah, they play beacause they love their fans and for some money. That's how you live. Fuckin gas prices going up your going to need money to get around and live your life.
Yeah, it's called being a musician! Why don't you try it if you think you can do any better. These guys give up so much of their time to tour and keep their fans happy. They barely get to see their families, etc. Don't bash these guys..they are some of the best guys I have ever met in that genre of music!
I'll bet you listen to Metallica? Fuck you, you want to talk about playing for money, when those assholes were out there suing kids for downloading some fuckin music. Go sit on something you bitch.
You clearly need to go learn a bit more about Metallica's early days my friend. Also, it was Lars showing up for court, nobody else, and they were suing Napster you dipshit, not each damn kid 1 by 1. Like ass hat #2 above you, go ahead and go to work for free for a while. Music is a product, pay for it unless the band itself deems otherwise.
Go to work for free for a couple weeks and then tell me how you feel. This is their JOB. We work to make money. Their job just happens to be kicking ass on stage. Anyone who complains about bands "selling out" or chasing the money are just bitter failed musicians.
I can't believe this! These guys come to Appleton, Wisconsin at least twice a year, and I wish they'd be there more often! They were one of the first bands I ever saw when I was a kid and they never dissappoint! It's never a problem to shell out $30 for a ticket and another $30 for a tour shirt. It's live music that is such a unique experience that is made awesome with such amazing bands.
These guys are good friends of my boss and I. I do security @ the Marquee Theatre in Tempe Arizona. He used to own Big Fish Pub and SevenDust made it big in Arizona because of that place.....
It's amazing how much work they have to do just to make ends meet, I honestly believed they were rolling higher than they were, but it just goes to show you how hard the labels can rape you.
Keep rolling Sevendust, and one of these days I hope to see them live.
I hate hearing ex band memebers (from any band) being put down. They were apart of the creative process that made the songs that made them famous. The way I see it. Some respect needs to be shown.
yeah but see when clint left, he started talkin all kinds of shit on sevendust, and lajon especially, thats what i heard anyways, he went on and did dark new day, and toured with korn, but now sonny has been let go and clint is back in the band, so we'll see if it works out...
Sevendust is one of the most underrated bands on the planet. For the love of god, is there a single Sevendust song that can be defined as 'filler'? Every single fucking track they spew out has the potential to be a single, every single one... Hell, even their B-Sides are album-worthy, so I don't know how they decide it's not good enough to be on the album!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
I still love them, and see them any time they come to town, but your right.. it has been... lacking something recently. I didn't even buy the last cd and there is another coming out soon i think. They are great live tho. Hopefully the next cd brings back some of the old spark..
I love sevendust and will always love sevendust. but I like both the before and after clint lowery. i do agree tho that the music doesnt have the bad ass melodies that it used to after clint left. but its a new chapter and i still love it. i dont care.
dude all of sevendusts music is amazing sonny mayo is a better guitar player, and they dont need him to write lyrics to their songs morgan does an amazing job and lj. Clint Lowery was awesome as well, but he was being selfish so out he went.
I love Clint, he's a great guitar player/writer and I'm a huge fan of Dark New Day...I'm a bigger fan of Sevendust, and I love that Alpha is heavy as hell...For a while all of their songs sounded the same, but I'm happy with Alpha
Except Sonny aint 1/100000 the songwriter clint was. Sevendust needs to beg Clint to come back if they ever want to produce another good song again. Dark New Day, Clint's new band, sounds like animosity/seasons era 7D, which basically proves he was the heart and soul of 7D, what made them special.
im glad they got rid of the other guy sonny is a guitar legend, he played in some of the best bands out there, which is why the new abum kicks ass. PLUS SEVENDUST IS BACK TO THEir ORIGINAL STYLE
Totally disagree with you. OK Sonny plays very well but Clint was 200% more inspired. Plus he was the one who gave that certain atmosphere typical of Sevendust. Since "Next" I'm a bit disapointed by sevendust...Did you hear his new band Dark New Day? Man, go check out!!!
man how did we go from listening to an interview to talking about human rights WTF!! wanna have that discussion go somewhere else. go talk to GLAD or the NAACP
Instead of complaining, change it. Radiohead stepped up and gave their stuff away. 38% of the downloads were paid for. Did they still pull a million bucks? Did they need the record companies? With technology the way it is you don't need them anymore. They are pimps.
you r an idiot..record companies take in certain % of what the bands do.live and studio..you might be clueless as to the real world..sevendust..needed to change back to jj french and theirn first album!!period!!
record companies are the same as any other company, they just wanna make money. they dont care about the people that work for it. sevendust is fuckin amazing and they deserve more for what they do. plus there one of the most underrated bands. and theres news of a new album comin out march 4, 2008.
im the biggest sevendust fan ever..clint..was a complete asshole..he was given the opp to leave to create the same fucking music?? fuck off!!! burn out!!!
Sevendust is way better than half the shit out today that makes millions of dollars. Does anyone agree with me that taking ALL the money the BAND earns is just fucking wrong? Yeah the label produces, distributes etc. the cds, but taking ALL of the band's money? Fuck that.
money aint shit to the labels,record companies etc..sevendust is one of the greatest bands ever..to feel sorry for the band..i dont..they should have stuck with jj french!!!first album rules all!!!
Wow, people are arguing over dumb shit in the comment space for a video where the members of sevendust are explaining how they are struggling? How they were having trouble taking care of thier families, and gonna make dumb ass comments? Wow man. Just....wow.
Anyway...Im just glad sevendust is taking care of thier own shit now. Great band, i hope they dont stop making albums anytime soon. Keep it metal
I was upset because someone will fight a racist up here and then turn around and be homophobic, and I feel hate is hate no matter in what form, but then I realize internet fights like this take away from the performers, think about it
wtf r u talking about?;lajon is the shit!!!period!!!suck my dick!!!since day one...1998..first sevendust..r u that clueless?u cant realize what truths are?no racism is there
The interesting thing is; Lajon could kill a racist queer like yourself with no trouble; no one especially a racist queer messes with Lajon Witherspoon; and hey even if you got passed him; the rest of the band would kindly destroy you; but then again, your too much of a coward to actually confront Lajon; that's why you talk trash behind a computer screen
mrbracken you can go to hell lajon is the BEST singer in the "hard rock" category. why are you so obliveus to the fact that supression ended 40 years ago EVERYBODY has equal rights regardless of the color of their skin. P.S im white and i KNOW that everybody has equal rights get your head out your ass
In theory, everyone has equal rights. In practice, this is not true. Rascism is human nature, but that doesn't make it right. Everyone has equal rights on paper, but in the real world things ain't so good.
Notice how kids simply make fun of whoever they want? It's influence that makes racism. If your around a racist, it's more than likely to have racist thoughts now and again. You don't wake up going "Ahh, I wonder what race I'll degrade today!".
Dude what the fuck is wrong with you seriously. NO ONE cares about your opinions especially when they are offensive..How does he belong in jail?? No one "belongs" in jail you faggot. IS it because he's black? GO DIE YOU BELONG IN HELL. Idiot.
He didn't even cut him off for a long period of time and the conversation is including him aswell he is apart of the fucking band and is involved in the interview you red necked clan cock sucker. Go fuck off and shut the fuck up. Just because your unwiped ass was taken by a couple of drunk black guys on a sunday evening dosen't mean you can just hate a whole ethnicity and think highly or your misguided beliefs.
All man I just adressed your dumbass before and your still getting on Sevendust vids. Your are by far another dumb racist fuckwad. Go eat shit and die. Lajon only put things in here and there and everyone dose that nothing big about what he did. And he did let Morgan talk he only added very little showing he agreed.
Isn't it funny you feel the need to be a hypocrite? And how is a statement a demand, you idiot? Feel free to do the best thing you could ever accomplish, and eat a dick. Maybe then you'll spew less double standards from your mouth.
...Unless you meant to post to the same jerkoff I was responding to, I apologize in advance.

These guys are good friends of my boss and I. I do security @ the Marquee Theatre in Tempe Arizona. He used to own Big Fish Pub and SevenDust made it big in Arizona because of that place.....

Now God Damnit! I have to read Catch 22 now just so I can say "Oh yeah, it was a Catch 22 kind of Deal!"

It's amazing how much work they have to do just to make ends meet, I honestly believed they were rolling higher than they were, but it just goes to show you how hard the labels can rape you.
Keep rolling Sevendust, and one of these days I hope to see them live.

go see them. No matter what they charge it will be worth the money. I saw them last year for the first time... they don't disappointed.

Sevendust will be the one of the best bands ever, forever!
This just proves that just because you have a "Record Deal" that doesn't mean you are a millionaire.
Sometimes the label you are with can rob you blind too.
Just going to show that you should only be in the music business for the sole reason that you love to write and play music.
You should want lots of money but that can't be the only reason you are in the Biz.
Otherwise you'll give up too quickly.

I hate hearing ex band memebers (from any band) being put down. They were apart of the creative process that made the songs that made them famous. The way I see it. Some respect needs to be shown.

yeah but see when clint left, he started talkin all kinds of shit on sevendust, and lajon especially, thats what i heard anyways, he went on and did dark new day, and toured with korn, but now sonny has been let go and clint is back in the band, so we'll see if it works out...

Sevendust is one of the most underrated bands on the planet. For the love of god, is there a single Sevendust song that can be defined as 'filler'? Every single fucking track they spew out has the potential to be a single, every single one... Hell, even their B-Sides are album-worthy, so I don't know how they decide it's not good enough to be on the album!
Very few bands share in this characteristic.

I still love them, and see them any time they come to town, but your right.. it has been... lacking something recently. I didn't even buy the last cd and there is another coming out soon i think. They are great live tho. Hopefully the next cd brings back some of the old spark..

I love sevendust and will always love sevendust. but I like both the before and after clint lowery. i do agree tho that the music doesnt have the bad ass melodies that it used to after clint left. but its a new chapter and i still love it. i dont care.

Very true...Lajon has a really great southern-soul voice, and he isn't given a lot of recognition that he should be getting.

dude all of sevendusts music is amazing sonny mayo is a better guitar player, and they dont need him to write lyrics to their songs morgan does an amazing job and lj. Clint Lowery was awesome as well, but he was being selfish so out he went.
mikepacemaker38 4 years ago 3
I love Clint, he's a great guitar player/writer and I'm a huge fan of Dark New Day...I'm a bigger fan of Sevendust, and I love that Alpha is heavy as hell...For a while all of their songs sounded the same, but I'm happy with Alpha
tyronehuff 4 years ago
Except Sonny aint 1/100000 the songwriter clint was. Sevendust needs to beg Clint to come back if they ever want to produce another good song again. Dark New Day, Clint's new band, sounds like animosity/seasons era 7D, which basically proves he was the heart and soul of 7D, what made them special.
InFlames864 4 years ago
im glad they got rid of the other guy sonny is a guitar legend, he played in some of the best bands out there, which is why the new abum kicks ass. PLUS SEVENDUST IS BACK TO THEir ORIGINAL STYLE
bouncerbob5447 4 years ago
Totally disagree with you. OK Sonny plays very well but Clint was 200% more inspired. Plus he was the one who gave that certain atmosphere typical of Sevendust. Since "Next" I'm a bit disapointed by sevendust...Did you hear his new band Dark New Day? Man, go check out!!!

Instead of complaining, change it. Radiohead stepped up and gave their stuff away. 38% of the downloads were paid for. Did they still pull a million bucks? Did they need the record companies? With technology the way it is you don't need them anymore. They are pimps.

record companies are the same as any other company, they just wanna make money. they dont care about the people that work for it. sevendust is fuckin amazing and they deserve more for what they do. plus there one of the most underrated bands. and theres news of a new album comin out march 4, 2008.

metalmike1976 4 years ago
Sevendust is way better than half the shit out today that makes millions of dollars. Does anyone agree with me that taking ALL the money the BAND earns is just fucking wrong? Yeah the label produces, distributes etc. the cds, but taking ALL of the band's money? Fuck that.
GroundBeef14 4 years ago
money aint shit to the labels,record companies etc..sevendust is one of the greatest bands ever..to feel sorry for the band..i dont..they should have stuck with jj french!!!first album rules all!!!

Anyway...Im just glad sevendust is taking care of thier own shit now. Great band, i hope they dont stop making albums anytime soon. Keep it metal

The interesting thing is; Lajon could kill a racist queer like yourself with no trouble; no one especially a racist queer messes with Lajon Witherspoon; and hey even if you got passed him; the rest of the band would kindly destroy you; but then again, your too much of a coward to actually confront Lajon; that's why you talk trash behind a computer screen

mrbracken you can go to hell lajon is the BEST singer in the "hard rock" category. why are you so obliveus to the fact that supression ended 40 years ago EVERYBODY has equal rights regardless of the color of their skin. P.S im white and i KNOW that everybody has equal rights get your head out your ass
devildriver1fan 4 years ago
In theory, everyone has equal rights. In practice, this is not true. Rascism is human nature, but that doesn't make it right. Everyone has equal rights on paper, but in the real world things ain't so good.
PsychoTemplar 4 years ago
Actually, racism isn't human nature...
Notice how kids simply make fun of whoever they want? It's influence that makes racism. If your around a racist, it's more than likely to have racist thoughts now and again. You don't wake up going "Ahh, I wonder what race I'll degrade today!".

Go fuck off and shut the fuck up. Just because your unwiped ass was taken by a couple of drunk black guys on a sunday evening dosen't mean you can just hate a whole ethnicity and think highly or your misguided beliefs.

All man I just adressed your dumbass before and your still getting on Sevendust vids. Your are by far another dumb racist fuckwad. Go eat shit and die. Lajon only put things in here and there and everyone dose that nothing big about what he did. And he did let Morgan talk he only added very little showing he agreed.
