Avenged Sevenfold performing So Far Away Live @ Heavy MTLJuly 25th 2010 in Montreal QC

[Richmetal05]

too bad he cant sing the high notes at the end!!! dont blame the sadness people!!!

[rockbandftmfw9]

@Richmetal05 I think he can, its much more peaceful to not go as high. I absolutely love them so much, I wish he did. But maybe one day he will start to

[demondoozer]

@Richmetal05 he can but he did not want to destroy peoples ears

[A7xSandro]

mike didnt quit lol...

[A7XIsMySoul666]

i hate mike how could he quit A7X if i was him id never quit what a douche bag besides Erin is better

[supertardfish]

@A7XIsMySoul666 mike never quit, he was never in the band. he was a stand-in untill they found another drummer. mike only helped them, and that was because he was the complete opposite of what you are describing him as

[NickW8930]

@A7XIsMySoul666 You know he didn't really quit right? They only intended to play with him through 2010, and then they let him go to get a more permanent replacement.

[TheRocklover100]

I want A7x to give us a concert in India...

[uttueveru]

forever

[azzianazzian]

Matt started off with the wrong lyrics xD

[TheValkyriePL]

I think that background (Jimmy hugging Syn and Johnny) fits perfectly to this song :'). Rest in Peace Jimmy, foREVer in my heart.

[itayprojectnatal]

does anyone if i can get the rev's background anywhere, its so freaking awesome

Jimmy shall live foREVer

[playsguitarfora7x]

@itayprojectnatal well, it was from the "all excess" dvd

[PekiShinoda]

What does Matt say at 0.14? before scared as hell?

[aidanlaw95]

@PekiShinoda "This is the first time Avenged Sevenfold as a collective has been scared as hell to rock on stage"

[PekiShinoda]

@aidanlaw95 thank you so much <3

[YellowDrumstick]

i showed this to my friend and he didn't like it ... now i have 1 friend and 1 bullet less ..

[packimann]

Made my hair stand up all over my body!

[demongamer100]

[DarkRoad130]

0:53 OMG, it's to EPIC !! Seriously, who can't regret the Rev's death, now ?

[stenseeth]

This is so amazing. I fucking love em.

[matt21randyrhoads]

[xxjeremyxx34]

[zombie766]

i want to get parts of this song tattooed on my ribs

[sammythe110]

[sammythe110]

@sammythe110 sry 5:18

[TheInfectionTR]

oh god ım crying :'(

[sammythe110]

@TheInfectionTR dude when firt watched the music video of this in computers class i stated crying but tried to hide. And that was very hard to do

[TheReverend4Ever]

Shadows wearing sun glasess cause beyoned it, he's crying .

[bullstrike11]

[iMawV3]

i almost shed a tear when the curtain fell :(

[MiamiWill3]

[Cristianron1]

@MiamiWill3 he cant smile hel get fired lol

[xxxTh3Aws0mexxx]

Synyster was his best friend, he must have been crying in this, u cant notice becoz he was wearing sunglasses, RIP the rev we love u

[Tacos4brekky]

Im sorry, but who the FUCK threw a beer bottle at 5:23 -.-'

[mattytatty69]

it would be so hard to sing this song live without breaking down on stage...

[LuuizGuitar]

fuck ,this must be so hard to play live ;// R.I.P THE REV (f)

[fuckyourudey]

@LuuizGuitar I highly doubt it. I love Avenged Sevenfold's new album Nightmare, but their using the Rev's death as a big gimmick to sell more records, tickets, merch, etc.

[Smit2k11]

@fuckyourudey No, they aren't. If you had a highly anticipated album coming out in half a year and your amazing drummer, bestfriend, singer and songwriter passed away, wouldn't you dedicate that album to him in memory? I would. They want the fucking legend to be remembered so they are getting the message out in as many ways as they can that he is gone. I see exactly what you are trying to say but, The Rev's death is NOT a gimmick.

[RvdManRule]

@fuckyourudey

you wouldn't have the balls to say that to their faces. their best friend, their brother died and you DARE say that? Jimmy was highly respected and loved very much, grow up you child

[fuckyourudey]

@RvdManRule You should take your own advice and grow up. You don't know the band personally. Therefore, how do you know if the band is using their "brother's" death as a gimmick? I don't even have a problem with Avenged Sevenfold. I love their music and the direction they're taking. However, I don't like when people have the time to comment me and act like they know the band personally. Geez. Get over yourself, dude.

[RvdManRule]

@fuckyourudey You were being a disrespectful cunt that's why I took the time to comment. While I may not know the band personally but I have watched hours and hours of videos of avenged. I know for a fact the band took Jimmy's death really badly and in no way they would want to disrespect him. M. Shadows had known him for 18 years or something, why would he gimmick his best friends death just to make some more money? If you really believe they would do that, fine, I don't care

[fuckyourudey]

@RvdManRule I'm not being disrespectful, dude. Sorry if my comment came off that way. I guess your right in a way. I mean, I can see how they'd be pretty torn up over the death of a fellow band member. I didn't mean to sound disrespectful though. Not in the least bit. But if they continue talking about the Rev's death and dropping banners in memory of the Rev 3 years from now, that's kinda pushing it. You know?

[Inferno5127]

@fuckyourudey he's not just a fellow band member....they're like family. they have every right to drop banners of the rev 3 years from now. hell they SHOULD drop banners every time they play this song.

[RvdManRule]

@fuckyourudey I understand your point mate and I have to apologize for being a bit of a cunt. But they should be allowed to have a tribute for him at each gig if they want. He died about 21 months ago and this video is when he had only been dead for 7 months. I'm sure in 3 years they banners would of stopped.

[fuckyourudey]

@RvdManRule Don't sweat it, dude. It's cool. And yeah, I would just hate to see the Rev's death get used for money, but yeah.

[generacool]

i hope arin can be as great as jimmy...

[TonyRocksGuitarHero]

@generacool Nobody will EVER be as great as Jimmy. The Rev was there from the start, and he'll always be part of A7X.

[6BuSh]

Cant believe im crying

[MsTetrisblock]

RIP Jimmy we miss you so much :(

[imapplhelper]

wow, you can just feel the pain in the band, especially in Shadows voice. We miss you Rev, too soon brother.

[DoubleBassKing1]

@imapplhelper waayyyyy to soon :/

[bollybib678]

Just saw 3 kids on bikes out the window about a minute into this song, just like the video. Strange!

[jacosam62]

FoREVer. -3 Can anybody tell me what this was recorded with? The quality is pretty good. Even zoomed in. Please and thanks.

[A7X211]

Dude The Rev looked up to Mike. He deserves respect for everything hes doing for them. Yes, The Rev Is the best drummer of all time but mikes just trying to help them when they need it most. So dont say he sucks

[yrasera]

Mike Portnoy SUCKS,The Rev,we miss you very much,you'll be always in our hearts

f o R E V e r

[Teeratch]

I miss you The Rev . And all A7X everyone ' *

[msa98ish]

Rip i love rev Forever!:'[

[DerryckROK]

Lyrics were messed up in beginning, but they fit i guess

[LuuizGuitar]

R.I.P The REV ...............

[cyoxlol]

THEY HAVE TO COME TO EUROPETHEY HAVE TO COME TO EUROPETHEY HAVE TO COME TO EUROPETHEY HAVE TO COME TO EUROPETHEY HAVE TO COME TO EUROPETHEY HAVE TO COME TO EUROPETHEY HAVE TO COME TO EUROPETHEY HAVE TO COME TO EUROPE

[Gazman3875]

Is it just me or is there a massive screw up in the lyrics at the start...?

[Twinsfan36]

Great job recording this awesome song!

[AverageGamingInc]

Regarding rrdrums1952, everyone is forgetting the number one rule of the internet. DO NOT FEED THE TROLLS!

[112358p]

love how they copy iron maiden with the huge-cloth-banner behind the stage

[BoBoBoBoY]

@112358p because iron maiden is totally the only other band to ever do that

[guitarslashvocals]

anyone else notice that the the lyrics of the first verse and the studio version are differnt. dofferetn order and lyrics

[lpatterson328]

@guitarslashvocals I noticed hahaha. M. Shadows just screwed up, that's all. It happens to all of us.

[Wayne2kx]

@guitarslashvocals Might have been intentional tho. He does that a lot.

[Jesxx89]

ROFL at random guy crowd surfing!

[amir1234785]

So Far awayy ~

[xAvengedSevenfoldA7X]

great job with the camera

[A7x23456]

he fucked up in the beggining of the song

[iisynysterx]

anyone elses hairs all stand up wen the background drops to reveal REV?

[kalax193]

One more: I hate this live crap. I mean, the band is awesome but the sound is... you know, crap.

[KustomRotary]

@kalax193 Its the camera dude not them. they are amazing live trust me

[kalax193]

@KustomRotary Uh-huh. Wish I could see that...

[KustomRotary]

@kalax193 You can

[kalax193]

@KustomRotary where? I said that because I'm in asia, pal. :)

[KustomRotary]

@kalax193 Yeh im in new zealand so i cant either :(

[kalax193]

@KustomRotary I do understand how that feels, when there are bands you love but you can never find them singin live in your country.

[kalax193]

Rest in peace...

And... I prefer M. Shadow's previous hairstyle...

[Lubu8055]

he sung the song wrong near the end 5:38 its meant to be "the pain is gone your hands un-tied" haha thought i'd point this out :D

[ErubielA7x]

@Lubu8055 he had a lot of mistakes, like the lyrics right in the beginning. he didn't sing, never feared for anything, never shamed but never free.

[SuperNNNaturaL]

I should we believe and praise for god if he took us The Rev?

[SUControversy]

@rrdrums1952

just who the fuck do you think you are you childish fuck?! do you have no respect for the dead or something. how would you like to be dead. that way Jimmy could whoop your ass for even considering to talk down the greatest drummer that ever lived

[coolalex111]

When The Rev died God said "Wait Til I Get Back"

[ooM1NDFR34Koo]

My friends tell me that all i listen too is "crappy scream-o shit"

Three Days Grace taught me that it's not too late it's never too late

Papa Roach taught me that the scars remind us that the past is real

Skillet taught me what a real hero is

Foo Fighters taught me when I know if someones getting the best of me

Avenged Sevenfold taught me that just because someone's so far away doesn't mean that their memory will die.

my music taught me more than any school ever could

music is my life

[Metallipotty]

@ooM1NDFR34Koo

I liked your post until I saw you mention Skillet and Papa Roach.

[tirix1997]

@ooM1NDFR34Koo Ozzy obourne taught me that I am going off the rails on a crazy train :P

[MathieuBrabantTV]

@ooM1NDFR34Koo I agree 100% with you man.

[BriannaBVB]

@ooM1NDFR34Koo This song is a beautiful song. All of their songs are wonderful in some way. Even if it's not the style they like, they can at least look up the lyris and expose themselves to true meaning. Not just partying in clubs or stuff like that. A7X, TDG, and all of these bands actually take the time to put meaning into their songs which is AMAZING. <3 (And it's not computerized either.)

[Dorko93]

@ooM1NDFR34Koo You must be really stupid if you learned more from bands than school.

[ooM1NDFR34Koo]

@Dorko93 Yes, i'm stupid, but don't worry, your mom taught me everything i need to know

[Dorko93]

@ooM1NDFR34Koo  Cool story, bro.

[fuckyeah009]

@ooM1NDFR34Koo I don't think of any of these bands as being screamo lol

[1992Scar4Life]

@ooM1NDFR34Koo i love most the bands, but skillet, idk, they sound too, idk not my thing or should be listed on this list cause there is a bunch of great bands on there, idk but foo fighters, they're good too but yeah great list!!

[lund3000]

@ooM1NDFR34Koo Well, that's great, now let me listen to the song, please.

[lexleigh66]

@ooM1NDFR34Koo fail for involving skillet in all of those great bands. Shame on you really/

[ooM1NDFR34Koo]

@lexleigh66 As i said in my comment, it's MY music... i like skillet, you don't... so what??

[beachamboys11]

@ooM1NDFR34Koo i happen to love every band you just put in that commentXD

[DeadlyxXWoLfYXxD]

@ooM1NDFR34Koo yeah i know, and almost easy taught me im not insane 

[DoubleBassKing1]

@ooM1NDFR34Koo papa roach and avenged sevenfold scream in some songs, but none of those bands are screamo :P

[ANCHORMAN2770]

@ooM1NDFR34Koo Stone Sour taught me to never forget who i am and where i came from

[ooM1NDFR34Koo]

@ANCHORMAN2770 Amen brother!!!!

[rjacocks1]

@ooM1NDFR34Koo where the fuck is pantera metallica slayer anthrax megadeth and system of a down at HUH

[Bubbly181]

god you selfish fuck GIVE BACK THE REV

[w0shiiWakaka]

A7X shouldn't perform in this kind of areas, in my opinion.

The audiience are waving their hands like gays -.-

[rrdrums1952]

Jimmy already plays drums like he's dead for his entire career. Now that he is ??? What's the difference? The band still is a child band of skankwads..

[chris59937]

@rrdrums1952 mate are u fuckin serious! jimmy played drums like he was dead! have u heard that guy, his skill and creativism behind the kit (and with musical talent in general) was beyond most other musicians tht have ever lived, he was a tremendous guy u disrecpectful little cunt, your clearly one of those who thinks they no true music but is actaully just an ignorant little shit, go fuck your mum you absolute bellend

[rrdrums1952]

@chris59937 Everybody likes the shitass band way more with Portnoy in it. Can you explain that then?

[OcTav3Clan]

@rrdrums1952 Someone cleary is a stupid disrespectful little cunt.Do you not notice fans everywhere paying tribute to the rev in comments and everything? Do u think we wished for his death? NO! We dont like them any more then we did, if anything, we like them less(wich isnt true but is more likely then liking them more with mike) go fuck urself u little ignorant bitch

[rrdrums1952]

@OcTav3Clan hahaha. You and all the rest of em are pretend grievers.....Most of you didn't know him or this shit band before the media blitz of his death. Did he really die or was he sacrificed to get this shit band famous for ten minutes??

[OcTav3Clan]

@rrdrums1952 ive benn a fan since 2003 you little bitch, and you dont have to know someone to care if they die. i cant wait till you die and go to hell and everyone will joke about your death....

[10000dippy]

@rrdrums1952 fuck you you inconcideret prik jesus do you have no respet for anybody ecept your greedy self i hope yoiu get sturck by lighting

[rrdrums1952]

@10000dippy  Hey Jethro...still stuck on phonetics are you? Nice spelling dude. Not!!!

[10000dippy]

@rrdrums1952 no im just so pissed at you that i miss spelled some words at least i have dignity and respect for ppl unlike you u dipshit.. have you noticed how many ppl hate ur guts u senseless bastard

[rrdrums1952]

@10000dippy I really win when fucktards gauge my life by the enemies I create in YT!!! LOL. That's what YT exists for dumbass.hahahaha

[chris59937]

@rrdrums1952 do they fuck! mate what the fuck is wrong with you!! the reason a7x suddenly became noticeably big when portnoy was drummin was because of the revs death, everyone bought the record rather than downloaded it out of respect, theyve bin big for ages, notice how portnoy left the band months ago, and yet there still huge? u fuckin idiot

[rrdrums1952]

@chris59937 I never heard of them till the drummer died. How big could they be? hahahaha

[chris59937]

@rrdrums1952 didnt u? they were pretty big, not huge, but theyd gone platinum and gold with a couple of there older records, latest album was the one that went absolutely huge and got them known by everyone who hadnt heard of em before, like yourself for example

[rrdrums1952]

@chris59937 Not huge like ZEP....nor anywhere as good. Drummer stinks compared to JB. fans seem to like mike Portnoy more than the Rev. So good riddance?

[chris59937]

@rrdrums1952 maybe not that big, but doesnt matter, they knocked eminem of the top of the billboard in the albums first week, that just shows how big a7x actually are...and do they fuck like mike portnoy better, theres no denying that MP is a better drummer than the rev, but the rev meant so much to a7x fans...dude u clearly dont no what ur talking about, ur ignorance is actaully funny, ur trying to make an argument when u no fuck all about a7x, just pathetic

[rrdrums1952]

@chris59937 Maybe not that big? hahaha. A garage band compared to Zep..And I don't want to know shit about this subpar piece of doo doo empo metal band kid.. Now fuck off and use YT for what it's intended purpose was...to flame dumb mother fuckers like you...hahahahah

[chris59937]

@rrdrums1952 never said u did want to no about them, just sayin that your tryna pretend u no all about them when u dont have a fuckin clue u piece of shit, if u really dont like them why the fuck are you on this video? just so u can talk shit about them? go get a life u poor, poor person

[rrdrums1952]

@chris59937 I told you what you tubes purpose is. Are you just stupid or what? Oh wait. You like this emo shit band that explaine everything. U Kut yourself do you?

[chris59937]

@rrdrums1952 well you were wrong werent u, youtubes purpose is to like watch videos, man how thick can u get?!?! and that confirms all my suspisions, that ur ignorance of music and ur stupidity in general are so much so i almost feel sorry for u, u no ur life has reached an epic low if ur stupid enough to call a7x an emo band hahahahahahahahahahahaha, fuckin spesh....oh btw u spelt Cut wrong u cunt

[rrdrums1952]

@chris59937 So you do cut? Thanks for admitting it.. have you gotten over that shitty drummer's death yet?

[chris59937]

@rrdrums1952 because of course, reading back ovr my comment, i clearly said that i cut myself, but well done for spelling it right this time reatard! :D and i got over the god of all drummers death a while ok yh thnx for askin :) hahahhahahaah lmao at all the hate ur gettin cos of what a disrepectful little low life u are, u deserve it u prick

[rrdrums1952]

@chris59937 Shall we examine your spelling once again? Can I make amends to you by buying you a box of bandaids? Can I offer you a Kleenex or something about the dead shitty drummer?

[chris59937]

@rrdrums1952 wow, i actaully dont think ive ever met a guy whos sunk to a level so low as you have done, takin the piss out of a dead person, knowing exaclty what your doing in the process....whether u liked him or not is your opinion but to say shit like that about him, wow dude, sink any lower and youll be at the same level that your mum is in bed

[rrdrums1952]

@chris59937 See how easy it is to slink down to the lowest level of human nature? You are now doing it. You must have always had in you kid... Admit that it kinda fun, kind of liberating.. That's why I say that YT is for just thois purpose..Hahahahaha

[chris59937]

@rrdrums1952 oh i no im doing it aswell dont worry, am not gonna deny it, i get into pathetic pointless arguments like this on youtube all the time, im only sayin all that shit cos the rev was my idol and the same to many other people, he was a very respected man, and for u to say the stuff u have done, it kinda pisses me off

[rrdrums1952]

@chris59937

" i get into pathetic pointless arguments like this on youtube all the time"

Case closed

[chris59937]

@rrdrums1952 okay fine lets end this, i dont care anymore, but i had to be nosy and whe i looked on your profile, it says under recent activities ur comments on vids, and there all some form of abuse/argument...that really is all u use youtube for isnt it? hahaha

[rrdrums1952]

@chris59937 I already told you , I thinbk..YT was made to hate on. It's the free cyber psychiatrist online..who else can you tell so easily what bothers you?

[stevepreb]

@rrdrums1952 honestly man, if you have no respect for someone with more talent than you. you need to get a better life than hatin on people that are dead. you realize how many family members and friends were hurt by his death? and ill bet if he was alive you wouldent talk any crap to his face. he would beat the crap out of you. and honestly after death i think hes still more succesfull than you low-life douchebag

[rrdrums1952]

@stevepreb Oh someone is still butthurt??

[xXRogueFloppersXx]

@rrdrums1952 you seriously deserve to die. you are a worthless piece of shit and you need to kill yourself right not and meet REV so he can kick your ass down to hell. You need to be tortured to death.

[SoHNooBueno]

I had the chills when that poster thing of Jimmy showed :| I miss him soooo much.

[thejfproductions1]

The Rev is not dead, God just needed a good drummer for his band and took him

[LightingFFXIII]

I love Matt's voice...

especially in this song can so melodic...

[omgman97]

0:55 i started tearing up and i hardly ever tear up

[pixie3ars]

[math6758]

R.I.P JIMMY SULIVAN :(

[TisJacob]

was he drunk? He botched the hell out of those lyrics.

[crosso221]

@TisJacob they often sign different lyrics at a live show

[rockbandftmfw9]

@crosso221 Haha Matt admits in interviews all the time that he fucks up lyrics xD. He said at this concert he was reading all of the signs that fans made.

[DaRkNiNjA56789]

lol @ 4:02 theres a guy crowd surfing

[datin890]

beautiful homage
