Bloody Cape Nick ----------------------------------------------------------------- waited in line about three hours to be the first one inside, but as soon as i got in i had to piss so bad that i lost out to the first row of people. but whatever, i knew once it started people would be going every where. dredg was pretty tight, better then i remember them being. some dude yelled 'play a deftones song', that was tight. they played like 30 min. deftones came on like 25 min later i would. everybody mobbed towards the front, and it sucked. chino came right out to the crowd barrier on the first song and yeah, it was tight. you could barely stand up from the crowd swaying the entire time, so eventually i was in the middle of the club and grits were moshing hard. but all in all, it was awesome. they played all the jams, not too many breaks between songs. chi talked more then chino, who i wish would have said more. but i didnt really care, id waited to see em since 98. the set list was like all the other ones you've seen for this tour, but i think it was this..... Be Quiet and Drive Feiticiera Change My Own Summer Nosebleed Hexagram Around The Fur Rickets If Only Tonight we Could Sleep Digital Bath Minus Blindfold Engine #9 7 Words Minerva Bloody Cape oh, and when i was outside earlier i heard them sound checking to elite, the boy's republic, and to have and to hold. that was tight. -jonah (jhovaxxx@yahoo.com) ----------------------------------------------------------------- One word for tonight's show: unbelievable! I've seen so many shows at Bogarts over the years, but the Deftones' energy was unreal. Chino was on point. His screams, his repore with the crowd, his stage presence - at the top of his game. Deftones have never sounded better. Do NOT miss this tour if you have a chance to see them. Tonight was truly for the old school Deftones fans. I couldn't have hand-picked a better setlist. This is close to the order the songs were played: Be Quiet and Drive Feiticeira Hexagram Change (In the House of Flies) My Own Summer One Weak Mascara Nosebleed RX Queen Around the Fur Rickets If Only Tonight We Could Sleep 7 Words Minus Blindfold Engine #9 Digital Bath Birthmark Encore: Minerva Bloody Cape As you can see, a lot of old stuff, and it sounded brilliant. Abe is an animal. No flaws on this night. Beautiful show. Ryan Coslett Cincinnati ----------------------------------------------------------------- Setlist: Be Quiet and Drive (Far Away) Fetieciera Change (In The House of Flies) My Own Summer (Shove It) Nosebleed Hexagram Around the Fur Rickets If Only Tonite We Could Sleep Rx Queen One Weak Seven Words Digital Bath Minus Blindfold Engine #9 Minerva Bloody Cape Review: I am not prone to overexageration. I have been to over ninety shows, at least 30 at this particular venue and, being as this was the 5th time I had seen this band, I think I can judge there performance accurately. They were very tight tonite. The drumming and DJ effects were more prominent this time than any other time I had previously seen Deftones. I was very pleased with their adrenaline/around the fur heavy setlist, not because I think the other two aren't great records, but because I think these two records translate better live. I was especially happy to hear One Weak and Rickets, two songs I never thought I would get to hear live, and Minus Blindfold, which I hadn't heard since '96. The greatest thing about this concert for me was the power it swelled within me. I hadn't been willing to get up and go to the sweat soaked, body slamming front of the audience for almost 2 years, thinking those days were past. But this time the Deftones proved the exception. Best performance I have seen this year. Patrick Barney ----------------------------------------------------------------- After the show, Robotussin in full effect, we walk out to the great surpise of a towed car. A taxi cab trip, 30 minutes, and $110 dollars later, we make our way back to the venue. Getting harassed in a not-so "Deftones fan" friendly part of Cincy by several bums and almost getting in a car wreck still did not detour us from our ultimate goal. In what would be considored both the crowning acheivment and greatest moment of our entire young lives, my friend and I finally met the man himself, Chino. Just having the picture we took with him hanging in our houses for the rest of our lives will give me the same chills as when we we're actually there. But, I must digress, onto the show itself. I know how nearly every fan like to do these reviews and start out by saying it was the best time they've ever seen the 'tones, whether it was the 2nd or 15th time they've seen them. So, being my 6th show, I'm not neccessarily going to start out like that. Although the energy, performance, and intensity was amazing as always, it was not the greatest. Due to lack of energy from teh crowd, mainly because it seemed like it was comprised of 13 and 14 year olds who were still in diapers when Adrenaline came out, Chino didn't really go into his more clssic ad-libs and rants (see: Wasted in Waldrock). We did, however, get a great setlist with a few surprises as always. Some high points were definately Rickets, RX Queen, and even Wicked was a great one, even though it seemed as though half the crowd didn't know what the F was going on. Cheng was a little over the top, per usual, Abe was clowning as always, and even Frank got in on the action a little more than usual and had a few moments himself that made us want to scream with joy. All in all, it was deftinately a good show, simply because of the setlist alone. it's hard to blame Chino for lack of crowd participation under the circumstances, nor will I attempt. Chino is the man and Deftones came through as always. Setlist: Be Quiet and Drive (far away) Fetieciera Change (in the house of flies) My Own Summer (shove it) Nosebleed Hexagram Around the Fur Rickets If Only Tonight We Could Sleep RX Queen One Week 7 Words Digital Bath Minus Blindfold Engine No. 9 (w/ Wicked) Encore: Minerva Bloody Cape Review by: Adam Wehrmeister Jeremy Houghtaling ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Im not going to bore you with the setlist repeated again. And frankly I couldnt repeat it back to you anyway because my memory is a little distorted from the night. Completely adreneline flowing, intense madness is how I describe this show. It was my 4th time seeing the boys and by far the most intense. I almost passed out a few times, but managed to stay in the mess for the entire show. My shirt was ripped off and thrown onto the stage and my tooth went through my lip as soon as the lights went down. I still managed to go to that other level that they take you and when you are caught up in the moment like that you cannot seem to capture it because you leave that level when the show ends. Not many bands have been able to do that (TOOL, APC, Mars Volta) But being that I just got back home from Iraq not long ago I glad to have been there even for just a couple of hours. Cant wait for the new album and the Teamm Sleep project to come out. Chris (Third I Open)
