The attempt has been ok however after seeing static x many times from ozzfest to shows of there own with wayne i seen this version of static x and it doesnt compare without wayne
Seeing as how dope toured with Static X for so many years, I'd imagine Edsel probably had a pretty good idea of how to act just like Wayne. They actually do have pretty close voices.
From certain angles, he looks exactly like Wayne. The lights flicker and it's like one second it's xero, then the next he looks like Wayne again. Evil disco lives on. R.I.P Wayne. 🤟
Michael Dulong dude. I saw them when they came through Nashville, you could feel Wayne’s energy in the building when they took the stage and it just felt natural. XerO is doing an awesome job at the helm.
I've seen Static-X several times live back in the day. I consider Wayne to be irreplaceable, however, it's clear Xero and the rest of the band are doing this in honor of him. I think it's awesome and they sound great. I would go see this current lineup.
Not only does he do an incredible job of sounding and acting like Wayne, it’s great to see the band playing together again. I kinda miss Nick but it’s rad to see Ken.
They are amazing. I had the pleasure of seeing Wayne twice with Static-X then once as Pighammer. I also saw Xer0 live a few months ago and it honestly brought some tears to my eyes because his movements look just like Wayne's. It didn't feel like he was gone
I saw static x once here in Finland... I was like 15 and too dumb to appreciate their music. Became a fan two years later. When I heard about Wayne's death I was in shock. They have so many good songs..... New pain, So, Just In Case, Black and white, Cold, I'm the one, Night Terrors...
Damn I got chills everywhere how accurate Edsel voice was. For a while I was losing my mind. I thought Wayne didn't passed away. He just left and have a peace of mind. Edsel did a great job though
Nobody can ever truly replace Wayne. That man was an amazing musician. This is very nice though and I am super excited to hear the new album. Static X will always hold a special place in my heart and Would love to see them again.
The bands that have unfortunately lost lead singers are numerous. The ones that have made a comeback with a new singer are very few. Static X has added to that. Would love to see these guys live at a festival. Great job guys.
Fan-FUCKEN-tastic!! I got goosebumps!! Amazing show/performance/tribute to honor Wayne Static's legacy and commemorate the 20th year anniversary of WISCONSIN DEATH TRIP. I know Wayne's looking down at every single performance with a huge grin screaming, "LOUDER!!" Love & Respect BROTHER! Thank you for your contribution to my life Wayne.
Listening to this after hearing everyone on Reddit try and tell me the rise of the machine show I went to was lip synced is honestly amazing. Edsel has been doing Wayne and evil disco justice since the first show he was with them, crazy.
This 1st Show brought me Back to when I saw them in Orlando FL at House Of Blues an it was EPIC! Xer0 did good and I'm glad Wayne's Amazimg work is still rocking, props to the Original band for celebrating all they contributed to Static-X! R.I.P WAYNE we love you & still Miss You!
Got to see this live, I would be to the left and further back from the person recording this. I can't even begin to tell you how much better it was than this videos shows.
Apparently, I must have been completely clueless when this happened. I had no idea that Static-X was back. I guess living in Hawaii has its disadvantages sometimes. We are so out of loop with the scene. At first I was taken aback when I saw the death mask but after seeing his performance as Xero, I have much respect for the band and what they have done here. Really hits you hard. Wayne will never be replaced but I love how they are honoring him.
Saw them at the Tampa show. What Wayne did for metal was amazing and genius. R.I.P. Thank you Edsel (Xero) for carrying on the Static-x name. Love the guys in static-x.
This sounds ALOT like Edsel Dope, I really hope they will unveil Xer0's identity when touring is over :) Edsel would be the best "replacement" for Wayne
Mathias Larsen if you listen to the speaking voice of Xer0 you can kind of hear Edsels singing voice. May sound weird, but if you get the chance to hear that somewhere, someday, try to listen to it. I really think it is Edsel. But all we can do now is wait for the confermation
I was fucking here high & buzz DAMM WAS GOOD TIME WHERE IT ALL BEGINNING OF BLACK SABBATH TOUR 1999 NEW YEARS EVIL 1ST SEEN STATICX IN MY TEENS NOM I'M CLIMBING THE LADDER DAMMM THIS MOMENT PUT A TEAR IN MY EYE MISSING WAYNE RIP UR ALL KEEPING YOUR MEMORY ALIVE AND HEAD BANGING STRONG !!!
I think Xer0 does an excellent job, but I do miss Wayne's live showmanship where he'd switch places with Fukuda and Campos giving the crowd a closer experience. Wayne just seemed more athletic and energetic in live performances. That energy is irreplaceable but still a great tribute.
Now that I watch this with headphones that's definitely Desel it's almost sounds like a Dope cover at times, @7:42 and @8:05 when you can actually hear his mic.
His hair looks a little goofy but sounds good but Wayne static was the real deal. R.I.P. Wayne static was the real electric head no one else can come close.⚡
This guy has to be Dez Fafara, he was rumored to be one of the vocalists helping with the new albums, but that's just to put us off his scent. I'm on him though, I've listened to Me Loco too many times not to know his voice.
The crowd chatting "Static-X" or "Sevendust"? Jk! It sounded like Sevendust at first tho. No, It really did. Edsel is the best possible choice to do Wayne honors.
Haunting (like a living body without a head. It's technicaaly the same/similar body... but it's missing its head...) and beautiful at the same time/. It's quite easy to replace drummer, bassist, guitarist, etc. (less noticeable, easier to replicate/hide in music etc.) but when the singer is gone... The majority of the band's soul goes with it... unfortunately. A copy will always be a copy. Even when it's "better" than the original. It's still a copy./ I also understand the rest of the band and everyone else who wanted/wants to relive that nostalgic time, play/listen live etc. Not hating or anything. Just sharing my personal observation/ It takes a lot of everything to actually even try to fill Static's void - respect/.
He was playing, but Wayne's voice was there as well. I think ppl are having a hard time understanding the vision they wanted Edsel to play. I understand what they did after seeing the show, and he nailed it. 100%
I'm all for these guys going out as Static X and even the singer sounding just like him, but I don't think he should be acting and looking like Wayne. I'd still love to go see them.
xer0 put his heart and soul in to bringing Wayne back to life for this tour. This was not a memorial tour this was a resurrection tour. Listen to Tony Campos interview and you'd understand.
This literally gave me chills with the lights down and him starting to hop and move his head back and forth like Wayne did. Almost makes me tear up
looks amazing but i really wish they made his signature beard onto the mask, the bottom feels kinda empty to me :(
I cried a little bit during Cold in the breakdown.

Hope the band continues. I actually found them out this year as I was getting into metal. I don’t want them to die out. And yes rip Wayne

Can confirm that it was really fun!
'Same here. goit my tickets for Spokane last night. Most energetic concert in the world is a Static X concert.
@Michael Dulong Yeah dude, just walk right in past security, NQA
Brian W: Xer0
He’s got the Wayne movements down and all. This is awesome
Not only does he do an incredible job of sounding and acting like Wayne, it’s great to see the band playing together again. I kinda miss Nick but it’s rad to see Ken.
He does so well for a minute I really did see Wayne up their
Wayne is irreplaceable, but this seems like a nice tribute.

Thanks for posting this. It makes me very happy to see that Edsel is definitely doing Wayne justice.
He truly is, I was sceptical at first but after the intro... It was like watching a ghost, chills.

You could tell they wanted to tribute Wayne right. Epic show.
@@justincharlebois that is what I call Ressurection done well. They can just call it Project Resurrection instead of regeneration. Lol.
Saw them live last night. It was like watching Waynes Ghost but it was an AMAZING show
Long live the evil disco......
Insane intro!
Evil Disco!!! I felt Waynes ghost!!! Marquee was electric ⚡️
Evil disco is alive and well my friend I csnd wait to see this fucking show

Did u hear the new album? What you think?
I saw them Saturday, epic experience!!!!
What a show this one was. So glad I was able to attend this tour at this location!
So glad I got to see these guys last month.
The bands that have unfortunately lost lead singers are numerous. The ones that have made a comeback with a new singer are very few. Static X has added to that. Would love to see these guys live at a festival. Great job guys.
Goddamn that was awesome. Thank you for this. Can’t wait, seeing them next month in Vegas.
This is just and awesome way to honor wayne, its like he never left.
One of my fav songs
Thanks for posting! Best video so far
Thanks, I appreciate that.
Fan-FUCKEN-tastic!!

Amazing show/performance/tribute to honor Wayne Static's legacy and commemorate the 20th year anniversary of WISCONSIN DEATH TRIP.
I know Wayne's looking down at every single performance with a huge grin screaming, "LOUDER!!"
Love & Respect BROTHER!
Thank you for your contribution to my life Wayne.
I cannot wait to listen to the new album with revisited songs with Xer0
Miss u Wayne 😭
Damn this was hard. I had the pleasure of meeting Wayne back in 99 at ozzfest cool fucking dude and this gave me chills. Rest in power brother 🤘😪🤘
This is nuts. Fantastic tribute. Great job from Xero.
Xer0.
i miss wayne
Xerø the Hero!
An incredible job 🙌 he sounds so much like him but you can tell it's not because Wayne was unique. I really want to see them!
Listening to this after hearing everyone on Reddit try and tell me the rise of the machine show I went to was lip synced is honestly amazing. Edsel has been doing Wayne and evil disco justice since the first show he was with them, crazy.
They do use Waynes voice in certain parts of songs, but its not lip syncing..
they definitely dont lip sync this, over the years Edsel got better and better at doing this style. its honestly a bit rough here
He lip syncs the choruses and his guitar is entirely fake
Badass!!
saw them at rockfest. dope as F. riight by the stage. cant wait to see them again in st paul dec4

They will always be a rad band I used to lesson to them before hockey and when I raced speedway and I d and always will
I was here in the front row holding waynes t shirt :)
Boom and Static X are back to fuck up your schedule with some beautiful metal. Good to see them back doing what they're goid at...
We miss you Wayne 😥
It keeps me creeps when i hear it. I mean :HELL OF A GOOD JOB!!!
Yeah, I wasnt sure if I wanted to go. I just didn't want to see someone screw it up. I'm glad he did such a good job.

I cried...

That spin though....damn.
What a great build up to the band coming out.
It truly was. Ppl got mad because I left it in, but I think it added to the feel of the concert as a whole. thanks for the positive feedback!
Going to their show in Milwaukee in a week. Fuckin stoked \m/

Współczuje temu kolosiowi co zastąpił Wayna ma przej.. bo tego Gościa nie da sie podrobić! ale jak widać i słychać daje rade!
stage show is like: welcome to a StaticX world
Now that I watch this with headphones that's definitely Desel it's almost sounds like a Dope cover at times, @7:42 and @8:05 when you can actually hear his mic.
Still love it though they could do the shows without a lead singer all the audience knows all the lyrics and would sing them anyways.
This is so fucking kool
Xer0 is Edsel Dope, it's pretty obvious at this point. There's no way that voice could be anyone else.
I think I was here. Powerman 5000 was the headliner....if I remember correctly...
Lol..such creative lyrics
Can totally tell this Edsall tooth Wayne is not that tall and I know it's so dope entire moveset my old singer used to date him
His hair looks a little goofy but sounds good but Wayne static was the real deal. R.I.P. Wayne static was the real electric head no one else can come close.⚡
this shit is fucking great
man this crowd was WHACK compared to us at warehouse live in Houston We all Lost out shit!!! xer0 fucking killed it !
I was at warehouse too. That was definitely the most intense crowd I've ever been a part of. So fucking cool to be there.

Is Waynes voice mixed in with his vocals or does he just really sound like him
On fuking point!!!!!!!
The intro to December was perfect. Different without Wayne, but still amazing altogether

It's crazy how he's even copied Wayne's mannerisms. I saw them 7 times between 97 and 01 and I feel like I'm watching Wayne.
I came to a decision. I will no longer refer to Zero as Zero, but, I will refer to him as Xero.
Xer0, not Zero.

Xero is pretty damn good I still think Dez sounded closer to Wayne but Xero moves like him
