@yrrahyrrah Hahahaha....that ain't Dimebag, man, but it's funny that you thought that. He has his hair. That's actually Logan Mader, Machine Head's second guitarist at the time. He left back in 1997. He played on Machine Head's first two albums - BME and TMTC.
Yeah as I watched a few other videos from the same show, I realized it wasn't Dimebag. Same hair tho :) And I've heard Robb and Dime were good friends. He wrote the song Aesthetics of Hate in memory of Dimebag.
This drummer had 3 fucking days to learn BURN MY EYES....He did pretty fuckin good for having 3 days to learn such an amazing album...none of you fucks talking shit could do half as well.
I liked 'burn my eyes' but I didnt bother with them after 'the more things change' cos I thought that was crap! 'burn my eyes' is legendary- very few bands come out with a debut that good
THAT WALTER GUY DRUMMIN ONLY HAD 3 DAYS TO LEARN THE ENTIRE SET!! HE DID CHRIS A BIG FAVOR AND FOR THAT HE DID HIS ROLE AS A TRUE FRIEND!! WALTER HAS BEEN IN TONS OF BAD ASS BANDS LIKE MADBALL,SUBZERO,POSSESSED,HARLEYS WAR,MERAUDER,AND POWERHOUSE!! SO ALL YOU PEOPLE TALKIN SHIT CAN EAT A DICK!!!
Kontos was a GREAT drummer. Very technical and did some amazing fills. McClain is an awesome drummer as well. But He's more of the speed metal type, he gets hung up on the slower grind type stuff. This Walter guy is not any good.
@panterafan86 dude I thought I was the only person who thought that! everyone loves the blackening but its too trivum lke for me, the old groove stuff was the best!
@pipo3939 what a DAFT comment. You must be deaf. As a drummer myself, I'll tell you now that McLain is EXCELLENT and every bit as good as Kontos. YOU IDIOT.
@channel32 How in the fuck do you know that? He only played on one album and their music changed with each record. What a stupid statement. A child would say something like that.
@streatcarp Yeah it changed for the worse. There are some good songs here and there but Burn My Eyes is on a completely different level to everything that came after it.
The drummer in the vid was just a stand in while Chris was ill... not sure what happened to Chris in the end I think he may have got the sack, then they took on Dave Mclaine. BRING BACK NOISY MOTHERS!!!!
remember that day..wicked ...have a vhs of this somewhere..nice one for saving me the job of eventually uploading it..was a great episode of noisey mothers...cheers
Robb Flynn said this was one of their worst gigs ever. He had food poisoning and the drummer who filled in for Chris was fuckin' up. Oh well, their 2007 Download performance was killer!!
but it wasnt just the tracks they played, it was everything together.. Flawless performance, great sound, seriously huge circle pits, atmosphere, and when you add 80,000 people screaming "Let Freedom Ring With a Shotgun Blast", you have the perfect mid-afternoon at a festival.. '07 was tame in comparison crowdwise
yeah i was at this concert i didn't expect it to be full of people jumping and going crazy. because i was planning to stand near the front and there was no chance if you're not up to being jumped and pushed on
Agreed, it takes some stamina to deal with it in that heat, especially when you catch a sharp elbow in the throat in 1 of the pits like i did haha.. Good Times!! \m/
Krusher, not Crusher, hehe. Back when Kerrang! had influence, innit?
