Rock on the Range, 2009 I apologize in advance, you can hear me singing along in some of the video (luckily I can sing worth a damn, so it isn't obnoxious.)
Old comment but but thats how you can tell legendary professional drummers. They can follow the structure but they have so much repertoire that they can just improvise whenever they want. Alot of drummers will try to focus on playing everything the same exact way without improvisation which is still fine considering the whole point of a drummer is timekeeping. The Rev is legendary!
RNOblivion only other drummer I’ve known to do that is Jon Fishnan from Phish. But I’m assuming if you’re an A7X fan, you probably don’t like Phish. Fishman is insanely good.
This has got to be my favorite performance of "Chapter Four" on RUclips. Everybody is on top of their game, especially Matt. His voice here is just the best it has ever sounded. These days he is really struggling with his screaming, which is more of a shout at this point. His screaming here is really powerful and his voice was still full of rasp.
Look how happy the whole band looks, especially Syn and Matt. Man and like after they lost the Rev, they just look so sad like especially Syn in the So Far Away video and Shepherd of Fire. Makes me feel for them. And then I hate when interviewers bring up the Rev constantly and you can see the pain in their eyes. foREVer🤘
I feel like they finally managed to kinda get over it. They were definitely searching how to do new music since they lost The Rev and I think that Nightmare shows how they first felt about it and that Hail To The King was just a mess that reflects the fact that they were just completely lost at that time, not only as musicians but also as individuals. However, The Stage is in a totally new (and really good) style, and I'm sure it's because they finally got over it and therefore are able to be more productive.
@@bousculade1035 Jimmy participated in the creation of the nightmare. I think the stage is the first job where they seem to have found a direction in how to create music after his death.
@@bousculade1035 yeah but one fucking look at them you could totally tell they were doing speed heavily except Shadows, he still looks healthy till this day Syn, Zacky and Johnny all look dark and depressed they’re looks changed rapidly those 2-3 years after the Rev died, Back then I didn’t understand it and I knocked them heavily for it but now years I get it, Jimmy’s death shocked the world, I mean everybody was looking at them they had a lot of publicity and gained so many new fans from 10’-12’ they had no choice but to show everyone they could come back and still have it in them and keep that momentum and that fire going , with a heavy touring schedule to it was no longer a let’s be young, play out music, have fun and party every like it was from 04’-09’, they had now had a undeniable reason they had to keep going, and that’s the only way if you’re going to survive after something like that happens to you, they were the perfect band, flawless in every way, why did that have to happen to them, 4 albums just wasn’t enough
Dude listen to all those improvised fills the rev does, some of them are pure fucking genius. Its no bullshit when I say, Ive missed the rev everyday since the day he died. I cant stop thinking about it a year and a half after he died, I can only imagine what the band is going through to this day.
- this song is awesome - noticed that shads hair is long and brown - live performance of chapter 4 is great - rev still rocks! - band still rocks!! - oh avenged please release new album cant wait!!!
Man... the things I would do just to go back to see them during this time. Travis, I hope you know how lucky you are to witness a show of this legendary status.
Epic as concert I swear a7x will never be the same without the rev... Crazy loss but I guess life moves on , except coming back to jimmys live sets that's wen I feel like he's alive #foREVer
Hahaha 3:34 -zacky is all like oh yeah man can you feel the music, are you feeling this shit. Then there's synyster like playing it cool, yeah it's all cool
As soon as I read the description, I thought "Ah crap, another annoying video that you can ONLY hear the guy recording." I can still hear the band, and thank God you can actually sing.
I was there..but I had to leave..I drove all the way to ohio just to see avenged sevenfold..since theyre my favorite band..and I didn't even get to see them..I just watched this video and literally started crying.
@Dryftburn they will be at uproar this year, they took 20 songs the fans voted on and will rotate the set list every night. Some of the songs are this, second heartbeat, lost, not ready to die, dancing dead, crossroads, I wont see you tonight pt 1, afterlife, gunslinger, a little piece of heaven, bromptin cocktail, unholy confessions, and a few more. Def gonna be an awesome tour!!!!
It’s cold tonight as the clouds turn gray and from my hands to my brothers grave “You took his sight, you took his gift.” Feel the power of a fallen man Man, a7x has the best lyrics
@maplepop I could be wrong, but I think he was doing what Mike Portnoy does, which is to have a double-bass set up and a double-pedal setup next to each other. He doesn't play both at once, but can switch back and forth.
me and my friend always argue about new and old rock, im into the older stuff and he likes the new stuff, but it was always a good arguement until....he went to rock on the range and its like 30 new bands all at once and he said the soccer feild was full and about 20 rows into the bleachers was full...so i go to a paul mccartney concert and i told him the whole feild was full, every seat in the bleachers was full, and there was about 4000 ppl outside trying to get 1 glimpse of sir paul. OLD WINS

I love how The Rev never plays the same song live in the same way twice. Every single variation is a goddamn gem!

@@euphegenia I was literally introduced to Phish like 5 days ago. Idk the name of the Genre but its like Funk Indie Fusion 😂
i can tell you from experience that it gets extremely boring to play whatever you wrote in a studio every
night over and over again
Some bands can do that children of bodom can't mostly cause they were always drunk and couldn't play it at the right pitch
This was the Rev's last show in America :(
Dylan Navarro 😢
It was in Sonisphere 2009
Pablo Bomgiorno That’s why he said America. Sonisphere was his last show, but in a different country.
@@uriahthewizard Cool
Sonisphere was in Europe

SkorpionPlays if he didn’t change it he wouldn’t be able to sing in 5 years time
Agree with the screaming part!
He can still scream
@@hazardgaminghg122 no, man, he can't.
@@alexanderhayward8505 Yeah he can, listen to Paradigm from The Stage

@bousculade1035 I think Hail to the King is still good but it was definitely experimental but I guess you can say that about all their albums lol
One of Revs final shows :( RIP foREVer
3:07 that high pitch sync though xD
A7X was in the their prime at this point of their career.
Michael Simpson yeah 2008-2011 was their best
L.O.L.
Brain dead
2003 - 2010 / 2016
their prime was at 2010 and 2011, matts scream was outta this world
Their prime was actually from 2007 to 2009, Diamonds In The Rough was too good
In my view A7x best years were 2003-2011
The Rev! Those blast beats!
you got rare footage of the rev playing drums with a shirt on holy shit
Very good eye 🤘🏻
Got to the lbc lige xD
@@bigk09 Summer Sonic too
@@roseR3AL ventura 2004 too
And vans warped tour 2003
Watching this in 2024 makes me feel old and it hits different 😂 so much has changed, probably peak M-Shadows vocals at this time

21 people didn't raise their heads and taste the courage
DavidCannal they don’t wanna fight

Now 30 dislike
wish they write more songs like this in the future... they sound badass..
Wish granted??
I wish they did too…maybe the NEXT album, because it hasn’t been in the last 3.
Wow.Makes me want to cry thinking of what could of been with such an amazingly talented and powerful drummer.Much love to The Rev
\π/
Damn though, that's probably the best live performance of chapter four. Seriously... amazing.
4:10, doubel pedal and ride
do you realize how lucky to see the rev play live in the final months of his life? wish i could be you, man. RIP rev. we love you
Awesome performance Matt as usual! Beautiful clean voice!
Dude, these were their best live concert: M shadow's voice at his best. Although they are good af even nowadays
Absolutely love this live version of Chapter 4 . So on point!!

Man... the things I would do just to go back to see them during this time. Travis, I hope you know how lucky you are to witness a show of this legendary status.

best chapter four live ever hands down...
good to hear them playing this song live again
Epic as concert I swear a7x will never be the same without the rev... Crazy loss but I guess life moves on , except coming back to jimmys live sets that's wen I feel like he's alive #foREVer
My heart just broke seeing the rev up there. MISS YOU ♥
So sad just months be for Jimmy's passing :(
they just keep getting better n better cnt wait to c them at sonisphere
the backing vocals in this song are amazing
AWAY IN THIS LAND I MUST GO \m/
Hahaha 3:34 -zacky is all like oh yeah man can you feel the music, are you feeling this shit. Then there's synyster like playing it cool, yeah it's all cool
THIS
AHAHAHHAHA
@@swagbucka6760 CDs 7fold
I am so jealous you saw this freakin song live. The live version of this song is god damn fucking amazing.
Holy shit, blast from the past. Matt's screaming, Jimmy's using his triple bass kit, and Zacky's wearing his ball cap and charcoaling his face.
Good to see they still play this stuff live. :)
Perfect combination- new Avenged Sevenfold doing old Avenged Sevenfold songs. Perfect.
As soon as I read the description, I thought "Ah crap, another annoying video that you can ONLY hear the guy recording." I can still hear the band, and thank God you can actually sing.
You can hear the rev double ride 3:42
They were in their prime at this time
3:50 HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Lorenzo Lammertink the lyrics?
I miss the rev.. everything about his drumming is amazing, the kit, the skills, the fills R.I.P.
We will miss you rev and what you have done for a7x keep on rocking in heaven foREVer
it feels good to know theyre preforming all their old stuff
Awesome Video! They really put it down on Sunday... I was right next to one of the pits and it was crazy!
I was here. 18 years old. Lost my brand new shoes. The good old days as they say!
man they need to bring this back for their next tour. Chapter Four is their best work hands down
They started off 2009 having a good time playing shows going on tour but they never knew the year would end so traggicly. RIP Jimmy
It annoys me that Matt always sings "look to the sky where have you gone?" live and not the original lyrics "where has he gone what have you done?"
This is one of my favorite Avenged Sevenfold songs ever!!
OMG THIS SONG SOUNDS AMAZING LIVE
Thats like the perfect chorus for an entire croud to sing
Good old prime days of a7x, 05-10
matts screaming keeps getting better and better since he started to again
Avenged Sevenfold has some of the BEST live performances of all time....not only do they look awesome but the music actually sounds PERFECT!
I was there..but I had to leave..I drove all the way to ohio just to see avenged sevenfold..since theyre my favorite band..and I didn't even get to see them..I just watched this video and literally started crying.
that fill at 1:17 was beast
1:17
Matt's voice has developed so much from the LBC concert! I fucking love it!
"Oh shit, guitar solo, better record the vocalist some more" Lol thanks for the upload though.
the best live version of this song
The last American one. They played a couple Sonishphere shows after in Europe. But either way, it was a privilege to be there at this show.
this is PERFECT !!!!
this song is awesome, and the quality is good, unlike most videos by random people, who look as if they were filming with a potato
Im seeing them in Septmeber I hope they play this song its one of my favorites!!!!!!
the rev improved A LOT since waking the fallen... RIP THE REV
Awesome video dude!
that is really beautiful said man i couldn,t say it better i am touched by it you are so right
perfect dude, just perfect
Cara, como eu queria poder ver o The Rev tocando agora, ele era definitivamente um monstro na bateria
good too see them having fun that much
@Dryftburn they will be at uproar this year, they took 20 songs the fans voted on and will rotate the set list every night.

first song i heard by them, and the drums made the song for me. so you could say that the rev got me into A7X. For that i thank him.
please don't lose your soul because of the rev has passed....
You inspire me 4ever..
zacky never used that guitar after 2009
yeah, they "retire" guitars
Gordon Ramsay they’re not emo though
That cap tough
It’s cold tonight as the clouds turn gray and from my hands to my brothers grave
“You took his sight, you took his gift.”
Feel the power of a fallen man
Man, a7x has the best lyrics
2023 anyone ?
Miss legend jimmy the rev 🖤
Man, Matt shadows singing it like the studio version??? Rarity level 1000
@valondon ahhh! So lucky! I would love to see that! I'm crossing my fingers,I don't think I can wait until September.28th! Too excited!
true i think those are the two best albums so lets just hope for something good.
I hope some of this live screaming makes its way onto the new album!
that drumkit is fucking epic .. just like the Rev ..
Matt was an absolute beast here
His best vocal were during 2009-2011
Wow, this song is so fucking awesome. Thanks for sharing this video, it made my day for sure!
@maplepop I could be wrong, but I think he was doing what Mike Portnoy does, which is to have a double-bass set up and a double-pedal setup next to each other. He doesn't play both at once, but can switch back and forth.
love his voice at the end
avenged sevenfold for life
omfg the rev sounds perfect live
only the rev had a great and beautiful drum kit in this world...thumbs up guys...R.I.P. Jimmy Sullivan..
on the guitar : muscles glasses
the rev is such a kickass drummer one of the best metal drummers ever the right at the top with joey jordison
CANT WAIT TO SEE THEM AT UPROAR AHHHHHHHH
me and my friend always argue about new and old rock, im into the older stuff and he likes the new stuff, but it was always a good arguement until....he went to rock on the range and its like 30 new bands all at once and he said the soccer feild was full and about 20 rows into the bleachers was full...so i go to a paul mccartney concert and i told him the whole feild was full, every seat in the bleachers was full, and there was about 4000 ppl outside trying to get 1 glimpse of sir paul.

truely sad to kno a drummer as good as rev was in his last year when they filmed this. RIP Rev, long live A7X
Sevenfold Sevenfold *-* continuate cosi siete dei grandi...
THE BEST GROPU *-*
The Rev was amazing, he wrote a lot of their stuff the last album, i wonder if they do go on, how much different it will be..
thank God Shads finally screamed this song: it is epic as hell!!
@Jigyjigg Yes. He also grew out extra limbs when playing Almost Easy. He was infamously known as the Octopus.
My thoughts exactly. If they mixed the styles of CoE and WTF then that would be an awesome album.
really nice quality, and nice to hear them play this live again, but u messed up zooming in on shadows during the solo...
damn man. looks like a sick show
Fav song
look at the rev back there rockin out this was the year he died R.I.P bro
