[ds777fighter]

@anjenahlovesrainbows Wow, nice bump. Seriously dumbass that is 4 months ago, so drop it and shut up.

[Drumstix2813]

I understand that the pure rush you get from listening to this might get you excited, but dude... try not to masturbate when trying to film this because some people actually want to see this... just sayin

[FCTTFAF]

@Drumstix2813 Someone didn't read the top comment, his reply to someone about his camera work

[Drumstix2813]

@FCTTFAF Someone didn't see that it was a joke....

[FCTTFAF]

@Drumstix2813 Someone realized that people can't detect sarcasm over text, so I apologize

[BornInDarknessToDie]

i'm glad that portnoy guy finally got the fuck out...and they've found someone who isn't trying to carbon copy his drumming..mike portnoy is good, but i dont base speed or technicality on "good" or "bad". I base it on creativity.

[kriptonasfeno]

im totaly agree with you ky102996...no1 can replace jimmy....no way....WE LOVE YOU FOR EVER JIMMY "THE REV" SULLIVAN!!!!!!............R.I.­P

[xXLightningJoKeRXx]

[TheSegasaturn2]

WOOT New York!

[CooCooAwesome]

Anyone who comments about the shaking of the camera has OBVIOUSLY never been to a concert before.

[spendizzzle]

@CooCooAwesome lol idiots expecting people to bring a tripod or something to those seats

[Jodveuk]

[godof4202007]

@CooCooAwesome moron



[CooCooAwesome]

@godof4202007 What exactly makes me a moron?

[IceDefence]

Actually good recording In my opinion, actually one of the best I've seen of live recording ^^

[BookGirl0210]

Syn's guitar is awesome XD

I went to a guitar store a little while back and they had a double necked, signed Synyster Gates guitar with bats as frets . . . . . . it was so kickass!!!!

[TheStigmistro]

1 minute silence for Jimmy...

[shadow707three]

dude, he messes up his own words in the second verse, lol

[SynysterVengeance3]

@shadow707three no dude~! :O they change their performance live.

[shadow707three]

@SynysterVengeance3 yeah but if u notice it he looks over and he's lyke oh shit did i just fuck up my verse lol

[BlackLotus210]

I don't give a fuck about someone holding the camera..... just capturing the audio

[greenda11993]

Krockathon <3 i love my local radio station

[SuperMetalhead85]

cuz theres crowd surfers in the very front next to security right? dumbass

[greenda11993]

@SuperMetalhead85 yeah they all come to the front i was in the front the year before and theres a ton of security there its a huge show

[polapolita2501]

where is it????

[wakeboardkid5]

1:30 crowdserfer in the dome. and security ruining all the fun.

[donSparda]

@HarmonyRobbin

I laughed my arse off to your comment^^

[DONTCKLICKMYNAME]

This song was an instant hit. lol

[deathmetal4you]

Going to see them April 26th

[drag0nfis7]

1:43 who's deathbat is that over Jimmy?

[puddingsaladboy]

@drag0nfis7 maybe johnny or zacky? idk

[A7XFoREVer646]

@drag0nfis7 It's Syn's. You can see his hat and bandana, the color of his hair just looks a little funky:)

[puddingsaladboy]

yo mike, welcome to the family

[rockxcore1]

you suck ass at holding a camera

[xo4everlovingu]

@rockxcore1 hahahaha read my comment below to someone else because it can relate to you also

[emishadows88]

@rockxcore1 actually its hard, all the people smashing you, jumping the mosh pitds, its kind dificult, he is doing you a favor recording this, ive been in a a7x concert so i dont care.

[Unpossible9187]

@rockxcore1 hahaha he's right:P

[DeathX500]

@rockxcore1 At least its goodish quality

[gregrocks66]

@rockxcore1 Dude its A7X when your at their concert if your not moving for them, other people are. What do you expect. Instead of complaining about the camra work, just enjoy the video from this person's view

[monkeymadlick]

@rockxcore1 the person probably felt like watching the show and im sure they werent trying to get perfect footage for jackasses that can afford a ticket to see a7x live so show some respect

[deluca925]

i hate not seeing jimmy :(

[smithdylan10]

6 people aren't Welcome to the Family.

[MusicMyLove13]

haha i like his hair :)

[bfmvlover101]

god this looks so weird a7x without jimmy behind the drum set he will always be lovd n missd R.I.P

[razzberry82]

This is a GOOD video. I've been to many gigs and I don't even try to record anything because it's nearly fucking impossible from the first 20 rows. The person who complained has probably never been to any punk/metal gigs. Be grateful that someone posts this stuff for YOU. 

[aquaagu2]

this song makes me want to kill and destroy shit \m/

[aquaagu2]

@soulbpt54 fuck soulbpt54, dude Arin kicks fuckin ass. you probably havent seen them live yet.

[xo4everlovingu]

@ds777fighter how about YOU stop posting just videos of games and go drive 5 hours to get to the venue at 5am and wait till 7pm at the barricade for a7x to come on and then be in the front trying to record with YOUR $350 camera while hundreds of crowd surfers keep coming over YOUR head being caught by shitty fucking security who were dropping all of them in the fucking dirt leaving most of them bleeding and knocked out..yeah YOU try and record better and not break YOUR fucking camera..SMD thanks

[biggestcubfan33]

@xo4everlovingu Right on. Its almost impossible to record at a show like this where a7x comes on just tearin shit up, and everyone around you is going crazy bumping into you, crowd surfers are kicking you in the head, and youre trying to hang in and record a cool video. dsfighter obviously has not even attempted to record anything at a show.

[VaiSeFuderMeu]

@xo4everlovingu Owned

[noahsproduction]

@xo4everlovingu hahaha

[DDrumification]

@xo4everlovingu you Record this with a Flip HD Camera?

[masteratemu]

@xo4everlovingu

i cant believe u went through so much trouble that an example of an A7X fan although not everybody can get a ticket to see them

[greenda11993]

@masteratemu there had to be at least 20,000 of us there and most of the people whent for a7x even if there were 15 other mostly good bands well 14 other bands

[Sunnysmiles24]

@xo4everlovingu lmao you told that annoying prick whats up

[NeoBion10]

@xo4everlovingu Dude... you are the best, i'm so fucking glad that someone could record this song live... you have my respect Avenger \m/

[Armred207]

@xo4everlovingu woa calm down bro lol.

[madoerin]

@xo4everlovingu i guess that's a win 4 you dude. very nice thou

[KarmaCharger148]

@xo4everlovingu camera still sucks ass

[bonestorm99]

@xo4everlovingu Awesome response bro XD

[anthonymm777]

@xo4everlovingu I think you did a superb job for how close you were and considering the situation, and it's just nice to hear them live, sounds good. Good job!

[IsakEngstroms]

@ds777fighter because you stand in the back and have no idea how it is in the front

[SuitedUpOfficial]

@ds777fighter

When you're on the concert of Avenged Sevenfold yuo simply have no time to record anything, it's too perfect and too beautiful, you should be satisfied to have at least that record. It's just too magical, to see and hear them live, since it sounds so original!!! :)

[nangapruan]

@ds777fighter screw you man! you don't feel grateful at all! thanks to @xo4everlovingu!

[FrankfortHigh]

@ds777fighter what more do you fucking want he could damn near reach out and grab him while hes singin!

[ds777fighter]

@FrankfortHigh That was 4 months ago. Nice bump.

[7Maggot4life]

6661 :)

[DeadStar1492]

@7Maggot4life it's not 6661 it doesn't make any sence,it's 1999 'cause they started a7x in 1999.

[7Maggot4life]

@DeadStar1492 yeah but he made it look like 6661

[DeadStar1492]

@7Maggot4life i know , my friend also thought it's 6661 xD

[Manchanegra3]

This is kinda a small stage for A7X..

[TheOlkax3]

<3

[nininhahahuh]

immortalspammer is a dick head

[slipknotforeva1]

@immortalspammer lets talk bout ur mother when she died after a year and see who is crying

[bellebrightlights]

@ImmortalSpammer

...god your a douche..

[idiotfacer]

they need to come out with another dvd of them playing live.

[theweirdo42]

Avenged Sevenfold is AMAZING. But. I prefer their concerts at night. The Pyrotechnics as well as the lighting is AMAZING. It gives it more of an Avenged Sevenfold feel to it. Still. Amazing band, concert, ect. :D

[TheRepentDrums]

@theweirdo42 I think all bands are better at night!

[ImmortalSpammer]

the rev has been dead for more than a year and there is still people crying like bitches. shut the fuck up already. no offense to the rev he was good but not the best like most of his fans say he was. so yeah shut the fuck up.

[dusty11559]

heck ya goin to see em in battle creek

[xsophiestarx]

<3 

[luziox13x17]

such an epic solo....

[toisaikei]

сool!

[doctorrichford]

[UltraViolet033]

Best Day Of My Fuckin' Life.

[enoemostyle]

[wardaddy73]

you are lucky. getting to see the greatest band ever play live. i want to see them live.

[JonZuuuPS3]

wohooo!!!! a7x foREVer!!!

[xGREENxDAYY]

Where is Matt's cap lol? :p

[LoSeRrOcKiNoN]

Why fight on who replaces the rev? Obviously no one can, but Mike Portnoy is an AMAZING drummer. No one will ever be happy. I like A7x. I don't care who is in it.

[1xcrosswordx1]

that is such a killer intro.

[zanarisslayisnoob]

isnt the begginging different i know its not cant help the people ur missing its.. only time will alter your vision.. he messed up his own song.. lololol

[ky102996]

they will never be the same without jimmy... dont get me wrong mike is a great drummer but he can never replace jimmy. *R.I.P. Jimmy ! Love always.

[MrBreake]

@ky102996 No one can replace jimmy... Rip<3 Gone, but always in our hearts!

[darklee69]

@ky102996 I know how you feel but think of it this way..a7x could of easily just broken up over jimmy and did 1 of two things A. break up for good as a band or B. Go on like a 10year hiatus and then return with a new drummer While the rest of the band members are already old and prob have gotten into some shit like gone religious or something.

[ky102996]

@darklee69 True true..

[Dragonforce6709]

@FvcktheHaters they're fuckin amazin live!!!!!!! i'm so glad they were the first live band i've seen :D

[brendanfick]

@thejww96 ...And Three Days Grace. An epic band that stays true to their music.

[disturbed415]

is it me or do you guys hear heavy bass from jonnys bass in like every live video

[thejww96]

the only bands ive heard so far that are good live just like they were on the album are Atreyu Slipknot Stone Sour And A7X ROCK ON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[rimticketts]

@thejww96 the offspring, early blink 182, sum 41, pennywise, nofx, +44, metallica, linkin park, rise against, a day to remember, nirvana, tenacious d. some examples lol

[sujing0804]

so weird wif the key of the song~

[tuned2e]

trooper shirt ftw

[tuned2e]

trooper short ftw

[FlagxPole]

omg i totally jst bought my ticketsz to see them on january 25th im totally excited

[LordKdaai]

foREVer 

[Raittarian]

Matt Shadows got a few lines wrong.XD

Don't get me wrong,,He's still amazing as hell o_0

[callumfoy]

@Raittarian dude (not having a go but...) it's his song, he can do waht he likes with it

[Raittarian]

@callumfoy you got a point:)

[Ulquiorra131]

Why does this crowd seem SO dead?

[sk8nrun16]

@Ulquiorra131 because there were 14 other bands there that day and not everyone was there to see a7x. i was tho i waited 6 and a half hours so i could see them front row :)

[AlkBael]

3 people were not invited to the Family

[11aseely]

i love how syn always plays this solo different live

[Salger12]

Love how they sound the same live. Just awesome

[breannem013]

I wish I could have seen this show live. I would have given the guys so much props for continuing with out Jimmy. But they are still saddened. It's obvious.

[Xssguy]

did he said you cant win this pie?

[Bralein]

I was there:) And 7/31 is also M. Shadows' birthday<3 Show was badasssss!

[blindness134]

ATTENTION ALL Jimmy "the REV" Sullivan FANS

On December 28th (before if you can't make it) we will all watch "Nightmare" in honor of the greatest drummer ever's glory. Let's give him the best present ever: the highest viewed video on YouTube!! Let's give him what he deserves and what Justin Beiber does not deserve to have!

Copy and paste to all A7X videos and all music videos let's get this noticed quickly!

THUMBS THIS UP

LET'S GET THIS NOTICED

COPY AND PASTE

[MrMike0113]

@blindness134 Bitch please. That will NEVER, and I mean NEVER work. Ever. I understand the idea, but you have more chance of bringing the Rev back from the dead than you have of getting Nightmare anywhere even close to the top in a week.

[blindness134]

@MrMike0113 Screw You!

[MrMike0113]

@blindness134 Some of you Avenged Sevenfold fans are so blinded by your love for their music that you refuse to see sense. You can't honestly hope to topple the might of Bieber, it's just not realistic at all given the amount of time you have. Actually, it's exceptionally unlikely that you would ever overtake him even if you had several years to coordinate some huge army.

[Godoflightning5]

Also, remember Portnoy was The Rev's favorite drummer, and his inspiration. That's why A7X called Portnoy to ask him to help finish, and he said it would be an honor. But both drummers are great. I don't compare either of them. But Portnoy did a brilliant job with his parts for the album.

R.I.P. Jimmy!

[isaacownz]

Mike portnoy your Amazing but its just not the same wthout jimmy <3

r.i.p

[BytorProductions]

Portnoy was the Rev's idol. Just sayin.

[firishte1]

In terms of technique, Portnoy is in a higher level.

[XxQuadcoredxX]

if you'd ask me id say guy fuck it who cares they both play drums like beasts

and it doesnt matter if one is better or not just enjoy there music.

[SynysterAvenged45]

Mike Portnoy isn't better than Rev, but Rev isn't better than Mike Portnoy too...

[juangapar]

Im sorry to tell you but without Portnoy maybe The Rev wouldnt even start to play drums, Portnoy have a lot more experience than he, its just a fact...

[almostsk8r666]

i saw them in darian lake and in saratoga and they were so much better in saratoga for some reason

[feltupbygrandma]

best concert ever

[ericdxx]

2:08 crazy ass picking. are there any better videos of his performance? really want to see that guitar picking up close

[zemlia88]

hold up july 31st? they played on my b-day and i didn't know about it??!?!?!?!?!?!?! AHHHH!!! T_T

[zemlia88]

really good for being that close
