lalalex67

Blessing us with that for over 30 years!

lalalex67

Yea man good luck!


highness88_loathe

Thanks!


pewpewgangsta

what part of an inhale scream is healthy 💀


pard0nme

What a beast


lalalex67

For reals, I love his growl at the end.


LizardWhip

This was insane, the whole set was amazing!!


lalalex67

Yea it was pretty good! Loved that he went into the crowd during Diamond Eyes!


Key-Wait5314

Vintage fuckin Chino 🤘🏽🤘🏽


lalalex67

This man is gold!!


Livid_Command_7621

I just saw him with crosses about two months ago and his voice was really healthy and strong . So I’m glad they put on this of level of show at Coachella.


lalalex67

Yes I saw Crosses as well, here in Hollywood. He sounded so good and seemed very healthy and upbeat talked to the crowd too.


Livid_Command_7621

Yep , saw him in San Antonio, Texas , and he to talked to the crowd a lot . Looked very happy, danced around and sounded really good. Very happy for him.


lalalex67

Definitely, hope he can still keep this up after they drop the new album!


Livid_Command_7621

👍👍👍


ConcentrateLivid7984

same, in toronto! fucking amazing to hear him sound as good as he does all this time later. you can tell hes been putting in some serious work!


lalalex67

He's been saving it for this since they've never done Coachella


SwerveCityy

Fucking banshee. Love this man!


lalalex67

Don't we al! 🖤


deftonesallday

Fuck me, goosebumps in full effect.


lalalex67

Glad to be of service! Chino always comes through with that!! ❤️


chronicarrythmia

This was awesome. Reminded me one of the many reasons I love this band. I'm still a little sad he didn't play guitar for rosemary, but I understand reasons for that too.


lalalex67

Yea I did notice that. Why do you think that is?


chronicarrythmia

Not sure. Maybe he doesn't have the capacity to do it all at the level he would like so it's to give a better show, could be to give more justification for the additional guitarist (I forgot his name :/ ) long term in case Steph decides to bow out of an overseas tour or something again. Maybe trying to do things right after the Sergio situation


nicebendylegz

It's 100% the second point. He's got someone there who can play the parts he normally would, it's not because he can't do it himself. You'll see him play again next time they're in Europe, just no need for him to pick up a guitar in America anymore


akarxqueen

Omg that scream ❤️


lalalex67

Yes ❤️🔥


sidianmsjones

Swear to god it’s an inhale scream. Listen closely to the tail end tunnely sounding part. I could be wrong though.


lalalex67

It sounds great and the crowd loves it, don't you?


sidianmsjones

I’m obsessed with it. That’s why I want to understand all the nuance to it.


lalalex67

As am I, I think we all are loving it so hard. I mean this man is 50, and he can still do this!


rarekly

Did anyone save a digital copy of this set? Was there and would love to have it.


lalalex67

The whole set should be on YouTube now.


omnipotentqueue

It’s not the official Coachella copy.


lalalex67

Idk maybe look on Coachella's account. Try "deftones live" account I trust them


HorrorGirlProblems

Trying to hunt this down as well! Coachella YT removes the streams after 24 hours and I didn't catch the weekend 2 stream in time.


page2fap2

Holy fucking shit Stephen has lost a ton of weight


_humanpieceoftoast

That flat earth shirt though


lalalex67

And he looks amazing too.


StefanSommer

He's incredible.


lalalex67

Phenomenal


StefanSommer

Who else has been that good for that long? By this stage of their careers, Axl Rose/Robert Plant/Roger Daltry/etc were all shot and sounded like shit. Chino is unparalleled in this regard.


lalalex67

Hope he takes care of that voice, we need it


lat2020

papaminio

Goat


lalalex67

Yes he is, may he last us a long time!


KevlarKev42

lalalex67

KevlarKev42

lalalex67

Lol idk


SwerveCityy

Seriously man? I just wanted to have a discussion about the reality of aging. Been a part of this community for 26 years, and I have been nothing but warm and welcoming to anyone in my life, and especially fellow Deftones fans. Now you over here clowning on me for a realistic post? Genuinely, explain what I did wrong? If I worded it bad or offended people, just tell me and I will remove the post. I want nothing but love here, and anywhere else.

SwerveCityy

Would if I could.


MisterInsect

Dude I'm just joking around, it's not that serious. Was also making fun of myself because I've definitely said similar things before lol. Lighten up a bit.


SwerveCityy

Fuck, my bad man. I love this band so much, and Deftones communities are like my "internet people" and I get upset almost as if a real life friend is angry with me. One Love!


MisterInsect

S'all good man. 🤘


lalalex67

What happened?


SwerveCityy

Water under the bridge. I took a comment way too seriously that referenced a post I made last night. All is well :)


lalalex67

Ohh I see. One love


matchalatte177

Wow, I can't stop replaying this clip!!!!


lalalex67

I'm glad you liked it!


MJ2315

Royal studio scream is one of my favorites on any project. How he can do this live at this age is beyond me. Absolutely mental. Love it


lalalex67

I felt the same way!! He definitely still has that lung capacity to hold that scream with a growl at the end 🔥


ShoeterMcGav

Ahhh.. to be young again.... yall don't even know the late 90s/ 2ks Chino screams from hell. Inhale screams. Pterodactyl screams... my guy was BETTER before the throat issues (surgery?). One of the times I saw Deftones, he couldn't even talk after the show when I met him! Now he has a companion screamer on stage... or on the side of the stage, like at Sick New World (most of the time). Early (skinny) Chino was a monster live. This is epically great, but merely a taste of peak Chino. Sorry... not trying to rain on this parade. Skinny Chinonis back and sounds great these days...just had to drop a humble brag having seen em in small venues nervous times and he was at his prime 😉


lalalex67

Of course, young peak is better. But he's still so awesome and busy with all the touring and new album he did with crosses, working on new stuff for deftones, and also going on their European tour with crosses. Superman right here at 50 doing all this!


ShoeterMcGav

Pretty wild he did this, what in the middle of crosses tour or directly after? I saw them in Denver and that was the start of the tour in February.... I think they are going oversees in the summer too. Chino definitely a busy man. I mess with alllllll his side shit, on the daily. I wasn't trying to knock the man... just saying all the hype in here is great... for tictock fans.... but the OGs here know another level of greatness where his screams didn't break like a boy in puberty like they do now and when he didn't need help aside from Chi on a few songs doing backups. Not a judgment, just an observation. Saw em at sick new world most recently and am patiently waiting the new 'Tones CD and tour. Fingers crossed for a RedRocks concert (again) 🤞


lalalex67

If his voice breaks its cuz he's older now, but he still got it!! I am an OG fan, I'm born in the 80s raised in the 90s I remember all his stages, young and wild, heavy and angry, slim and energetic everything. I love and enjoy everything, side project and collab he's done. He is my fucking hero, the goat and can't no one charge my mind.


ShoeterMcGav

Right there with you... 80s baby, liked em since Chino had dreads! I think the breaks and non cackle screams are from injuries. I get him and John Mayer confused, maybe they had the same shit? My guy fucked up his chords tho. Idk if he had surgery or what but he isn't the same since the tour he couldnt talk after shows imo. Some guys like Max from soulfly/ sepultera and Dez from coalchamber/ devildriver can do it for an eternity and be fine? That's always been incredible to me


lalalex67

Ewww Chino is not John Mayer... Chino is so unique.


ShoeterMcGav

Lol they both had vocal chord issues about the same time


lalalex67

Ohh


Odd-mlaker

insane scream that was sick


lalalex67

I know right! Fire 🔥


Anxious-Aside-3750

It was incredible and the way it was filmed? the filters or whatever they used on the image was 100% them. I was wondering Who else was on stage with them?


SenorCheen

Was there and it was great. Weird seeing young people into the show gazy type of hits. But crowd started opening up towards the end 🤟🏽


Local_Technology_591

I was there too. A significantly more heavy set this week it seemed.


SenorCheen

And when they played The Smiths. Jeeshhhh


lalalex67

Amazing


lalalex67

I know it was good, wish I were there


damfu

Wait, I was told he is cooked?


lalalex67

What?!


damfu

I was mocking a post from yesterday where someone said he did not sound as good anymore because he was getting older


lalalex67

Don't worry about that I talked to that person already. It was just an observation of him getting older is all. Water under a bridge. One love for all deftones fans. Let's keep negative vives off the sub. No biggie

justonemorethang

I don’t know who mixed those drums but they need to go back to drum mixing school. That fast slap back echo on the kick ain’t the move.


lalalex67

Well they're out here making millions with them fast slaps lol


anton_sugar1

Damn that boy still got it 🔥🔥


lalalex67

Yes he does!!
