SOAD-Deer Dance live at Big Day Out 2002

[lasharn07]

This song is obviously about police brutality and their abuse of power in society. Feel free to disagree but at the end of the song in the very last second of the video it looks like Serj is staring down at the security people below him. I think that's awesome lol!!!

i guess I would need to see the next few seconds to be sure.

[QueenLynn12]

Guys, cut it out with 'oh I miss this Serj' and 'I hope there like this in 2011' Dude like seriously, Serj is freakin 44 (He just turned 44 on the 21 of August.) I mean you want them to be fucking 79 acting like this??? Just be happy there back doing concerts....

[violinest1]

Magic dirt lol

[AxelinickRapGirl]

i want THIS serj... i hope that he s going to sing like in this song...

[ere100]

Thumbs up if you've got your 2011 tickets reserved! \m/

[Metallca4ever]

there are no words to describe how perfect system of a down is

[paper3434]

i hope they are good in 2011

[Snakebites50]

Shavo at 1:30 best face ever.

[punkypariahan777]

theres somthing wrong with serj's ear thing

[Soldier7775o]

System of a Down is back!!! In 2011

[nicothedoorscentral0]

that serj went in 1:23 minutes ?

[TofUSchWeiN96]

i wanna see them playing sober! :D

[shadowgamer1313]

@TofUSchWeiN96 are you talking about the song by TOOL?

[Focus923]

@shadowgamer1313 hehe, sober means 'not drunk'

[SoadAddict91]

System is coming back!!!! 2011!!!! John was in an interview and he said they (SOAD) would be touring next year. ALL HAIL SYSTEM OF A DOWN!!!!

[tapsrob]

Briiiing!xDDDDD

[rossman81]

they played it so damn fast this performance. look at :03 and :10. awesome performance by john!

[RedcoatMic24]

@rossman81 That's probably why Serj can't keep up.

[juku223]

sick , but cool

[rockmyworld21409]

this is crap why do they suck only on this song live :'(

[1reaperai]

16coreprocessor23 i have to agree with you but Slipknot does it cause they enjoy causing fucking riots!!! hell yeah

[16coreprocessor23]

@1reaperai  agreed!:)

[TheTruth3977]

bbrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrign!!

[facelessface123]

1:28

Lulz

[skiballer23]

pushing little children with the fully automatics, they like to push the weak around...push the weak around...push the weak around..

amazing

[prototypemachinery1]

epic song

[tarik1816]

gamedrumandrocknroll his bass playing is always amazing so is the whole band

[3bo0odpala]

i loved fat serj tankian

[gamedrumandrocknroll]

Just loving Shavos' bass at the beginning!

[afrokid101]

2:07 - 2:14.....daron sounds the same as the album track

[Mchasui]

ahhhh the last voice!

[shadow21491]

fucking miss them

[slipknotmatt123123]

soad for life!

[southparkfan1999]

out of all the system songs i have played this one is the hardest for me because of all the sliding

[Theswantonboy96]

serj was tired, but damn he gave it his best

[tarik1816]

Tuyyopaqui dude daron is insane and that makes him the best guitarist

they are amazing

[ksefan17]

PPPPRRRRRRING : D serj is awesome

[16coreprocessor23]

System of a Down is the most talented band live. U can tell by the way they play; they're happy to play live unlike other bands who do it solely for money.

[KingVerdo]

@16coreprocessor23 And thats what makes system great is them being so funny during live shows.

[S0uLPiece]

@16coreprocessor23 I am a System fanboy, but this is just not right. They are talented, they are very good, have very much energy (or had), but they aren't the best, far from that.

One of the best bands were the Red Hot Chili Peppers, look up their live performances, especially LIve at Slane Castle. Everything is just perfect, so much energy is floating in the air, every note (especially through Frusciante's excellent play) gives you a special feeling. So yeah, System is good, but that's it.

[16coreprocessor23]

@S0uLPiece there is no question that the most interesting band live is Rammstein for all their pyrotechnics on stage, as for Red Hot Chilli Peppers, i dont really know them well so i cant critize, but i will take ur suggestion seriously. but i still think system

is most talented live but i m not trying to argue with u.

[voteforitnow]

@S0uLPiece dude im sorry but how can u say rhcp are even in the same ballpark as soad, dont get me wrong i like them but soad is just great

[GBallaJ]

@voteforitnow If you ask me which I know you didn't I'd say Slipknot puts on a fucking wicked show but I only have youtube videos to judge from.Before Paul's death they were still givin'er check out their gig at Download.

[TheAmazingScotsman]

@16coreprocessor23 Yeah, I'm sure the money has nothing to do with the reason they play live shows and put so much effort into it.

[jasonslave123]

1:27

Technical difficulties

[Tuyyopaqui]

Daron looks insane 2:11

[AngusYoungSG1]

not the best show cuz  the singer sounds different

[kuroscov9620]

Funny at the begin, hahahaha PRING....Hhahaha...Serj is a great singer...It's so sad SOAD is separated

[MrEasyontheEyes]

looks tired but still amazing

[CybeRocker17]

0:51 AMAZING!!

[Pr3dat0r5000]

bbrriinngg!

[StellarNinjas]

shavo is the best bassist. ever.

[bottom83]

BRIIIING!

[blackandorangebox]

I'd have to strongly disagree with Kyler...although I love all of SOAD's albums, Hypnotize was one my fav's!!! Attack/Hypnotize/StealingSocie­ty/Tentative/U-Fig/HolyMountai­ns/Vicinity/She'sLikeHeroin/Lo­nleyDay etc.....THAT'S NOT GOING DOWNHILL FOOL!!!

[Kyler2013]

This is when they were good, after 'Memorize' , it just went downhill...

[Minestroogo]

Fucking awesome...

[MetalRock3000]

I miss them ='[

[ambrose199]

this is one of the best bands in the world SOAD for LIFE!!

[Torres09Soad]

The "Solo" is so good that it should be banned :D

[Jijifiongos]

Welll,this performance of Deer Dance is not very well,i think they could do a lot better...

But the BRIIIIING in 0:13 is EPIC!!!

[Cigaro1887]

This is the best live version of deer dance

[StellarNinjas]

This is their best performance

[Jijifiongos]

NOP!

Their best Deer Dance performance is at Rock Am Ring 2002!!!

[StellarNinjas]

@Jijifiongos well this is shavo's best

[Jijifiongos]

Perhaps, but surely it isn't SOAD's best Deer Dance performance!

[zzerenno]

soad rulezzz forever!!!!

[buuuuuuuuuu12]

soad <33 ;))

[Jamess297]

soad rulez

[CallSignMusic]

Gotta love the bridge!

[drmanakias]

the most best band!!!!!!!!!!

[bryant3454]

lol@

0:14

[Drewamania]

Lol I watch this video so many times a day, haha.

[ibanezz45]

i love soad.... but in this vid they dont play so great. but dont get me wrong, soad is the best

[PSZhuyM]

SOAD

pa k chingados se separan

K pendejos asi a niguno d los 2 les va bien a serj le hace falta el estilo pesado y la creatividad de daron

y a scars on broadway le hace falta la voz de serj q daron no canta mal pero cuando t acostumbras a oir a serj se oye culero ,,,

[Ragnarock98]

Aweonao, estos qlaos no se han separado, osea, no tocan desde hace un tiempo, pero estuve investigando i simplemente fue un tiempo... se dice que van a volver a tocar este año... pero = toy deacuerdo cn ti comentario VIVA SOAD!!!!

[musicposse]

I couldn't name one bad song from SOAD. Serj's solo-songs are great too.

[chainsawmaniac08]

serj is an amazing vocalist but i feel the guitar in soad is a bit under par compared to quite a bit of metal but maybe im just picky being a huge metallica fan

[the4x4ster]

very true most SOADs music is quite EZ to play but they are a one guitar band + there style doesnt require a whole lot of complex,well anything honestly but none the less I like System the only metal band to come out since the 80s that i like.....and thats sad oh yea and metallica?theve not been good since ....and justice for all

[yaymike23]

dude even though i play pop punk now i love system of a down because if it wernt for them i never would have gotten into metal and i probably would have quit guitar so anyways soad is BEAST!!!

[simsemuhz]

dude. daron is intense. playin the guitar with his middle finger and shiiiit.

and shavo

is fuckin

BEAST.

[spaik007]

daron guitar is tuned drop c

so.. he only need one finger to play most of the heavy riffs

[simsemuhz]

eeey dont ruin it for me.

its still intense. haaha.

[spaik007]

hell yeah :D

[888child888]

halloo

it is funny

[pej113]

serj is vocalist and darons the guitar dumbasses

[Death8896]

What's the conversation at 1:28 about lol?

[sqriv]

erm probably that his ear-piece thing isn't working or something:)

[Waykum]

John Dolmayan = LOOOOOOOOOOVVVVVVVVVVEEEEEEEEE­EEEEEEE

[krazykazaa]

briiiiiiing!

[Tenente095]

!!!Pushing little children!!!!!!!

[ozzylennon007]

serj's air guitar kicks ass! he's the best (all SOAD is great)

[SoaD4EvErEvEr]

big day out was the greatest concert from soad!

[tansvanio]

AGREED!!!!

[dianagenial]

is fantastic, excelent

[Piotrekk109]

pryyyyy

[CudiC4MNM]

Around 1:30 or so, you can hear Serj say something like "my ear's not working..." just listen out for something Serj says after the chorus

[Jay0bdan]

ya, i heard him say my ear's not working.

[BasketballMatthew23]

yup, he does after he leaves the stage

[Food8trooper]

i hear Darons my ear's not workin.. =S

[Jay0bdan]

Serj always hides the meanings of his songs perfectly. its almost unnoticeable :]

[The6656Reality]

except for byob, boom and soldier side

[Jay0bdan]

well those ones are sorta obvious its making fun of politics and things, but in everything else they hide the meanings of their songs perfectly.

[TheGuardianOfHalo]

and the song War?

[jaws2266]

i feel sorry for him he dose so much on stage he gets tired plus he allways has trouble live with this song for some reason plus not hearing himself messes him up but whatever he still does good

[StandForJustice]

SERJ IS JUST PLAIN BRILLIANT!!

[drewsny]

serj really does this to himself, its not a bad thing though. He seems like he has so much fun and does everything he wants to in the beginning of a concert so when its the end like here, he looks like hes completely out of it.

[nikolPIKOL]

you can se that serj realy feal their music

[yourGothicfriend]

C:5/8\3/7\1/5-0

[Alguhh]

thanks for the tab, lol.

[yourGothicfriend]

[soadfanmanz]

[nylertickel2]

0:03 gotta love the air guitar :D

[vitimofmydawn95]

i dont know what's this song talkin about does any body know ??

[McCrackdown]

"A deer dance, invitation to peace

War starin' you in the face

Dressed in black

With a helmet, fierce

Trained and appropriate for the malcontents

For the disproportioned malcontents

The little boy smiled, it'll all be well

And see the little boy smiled, it'll all be well"

@ 1:40

it is about child warriors in africa and so on i think.

[evilburrito95]

Wrong its about young protesters and riot police brutality, mostly peaceful protesting against war, With rubber bullet kisses Baton courtesy Service with a smile Beyond the staples center you can see america With its tired poor avenging disgrace Peaceful loving youth against the brutality Of plastic existence Pushing little children With their fully automatics They like to push the weak around Rubber bullets and batons, riot police tactics.. against young protesters that are against war...

[McCrackdown]

thank you for thes additional

[brady8196]

It's about anything you want it to be about. This is System. They leave their songs open to interpretation.

[ozzforcica]

[ghillielover]

[Met6661982]

ok I love soad so much I only need one more album to complete!! that is besides the point though ok I wanted to say that all of them have gone to shit they are all so different they are not like they used to be especialy daron, who agrees with me they should get back together and be weird again??

[PretzelStix]

i kinda know what you mean like now daron uses a Gibson SG instead of his original ibanez iceman , and he changed his hair during H/M era, w/ it on both sides and no double beared. he also just has a big beard i guess daron has matured from self album to Scars debut album.

[Recountszzzz]

serj is so awsum

[heyjamesky]

1:30-1:33 IS SO FREAKIN HILARIOUS

[Chickenjuicedrinker]

Daron Malakian Looks Tired! I don't know why but I'd never trust John With My Luggage

[StonerPlain]

He's not tired just very stoned. :P

[BasketballMatthew23]

lol why?

[Chickenjuicedrinker]

I don't know it's just a feeling.

[reydelmuerte]

[PelleogTobias]

John never misses!

[bobcheese159]

SYSTEM 4 EVER!!!

[bobcheese159]

i love shavo's fave right after serj's ear piece wasn't working

[2Dcornflake]

This one wasnt good i think because serj's mic was cutting off at like :29 - :30 he noticed that and then he kinda rushed it so he could get something done about

you can even hear him saying that the mic is cutting out

[bobcheese159]

we missed that 29 or 30 sec. because serj had problems with his ear piece so yea

[swweet21]

system will always be the greatest band!!!!!

[Fefesk82]
