They all look sad performing this. Watching Syn play here is heartbreaking :( #riprev

[@alberca90]

avenged sevenfold is seriously the best fucking band live... out of all the bands i've seen at shows, this is the only band where every person can nail every difficult part of every song... the live versions of their songs are BETTER than the album versions, and they don't mess up... and matt can hit every note perfect, even when you can tell he's running out of breath, he still pulls it off, it's fuckin amazing

[@arikferdiansyah1709]

This song is a amazing piece of work. Playing it live is unthinkable. Everyone definitely has to do their job on this one.

[@fayfayyooou]

So many things. 1. Syn’s expression. I didn’t realize this song meant so much to them about Jimmy till i saw the Breakdown video for this song 2. Johnny’s “Skull!”

Not only Syn, but everyone

[@river4088]

Jesus wept I don't know how any of them, but especially Syn, got through this tour. I'm so grateful we still have Avenged, but their fight to survive losing Jimmy was unreal. I couldn't listen to Avenged for years after this tour, and watching these older videos of this time reminds me how touch and go it was for a while there.

[@TheJdog56]

Syn wasn't bored man, he was upset, because of Jimmy!

[@criminalminds613]

i seriously started crying when i saw how sad syn was and i knew it was about the rev. i just thought of how hard it must be to lose your best friend, and even had him live in your house for a while. now that just shows how much syn cares about him, and i fell really bad for him. not just for him, but for all of them.

[@THPDCF]

playing live reminds him of the rev i think , that makes him look so sad.. their shows were so much butter with the rev

[@boendahbandofficial8628]

I think Arin plays more than Brock in this song, he plays like in the original song, there is no improvement

[@PreFLecTnChubeY]

Syn just looks blank at the start :( definitely thinking of Jimmy. I fill my heart up with love and send it to avenged sevenfold. -3

[@83manimal]

i had the chance to see the original line up pit seats as well so fortunate to see jimmy play one time i cherish that moment as a drummer and a fan

When you loose your best friend one day, you'll understand.

[@arteezysecret1687]

He do actually

[@Dreager141]

Well at this time he was probably super depressed over Jimmy’s death.

[@puppetmaster8551]

He does, all these years later the band is in a good place which is good to see, they’ve almost all got wives and kids and shit now. I’m sure they were all super Sad around the nightmare era because they missed Jimmy.

[@syevandasastro8400]

[@13619]

yeah but Syn was never like that before Jimmy's death. he used to play with so much emotion in the live shows, and now hes just there with blank expressions :|

[@frankdaly1576]

Oh my god, Syn looks like he's about to cry at the begginning... ;cccc Everyone misses Jimmy, but Gates looks like he's just gonna say 'fuck it' and throw his guitar.

[@xphil437x]

i haven't seen them smile in any of these recorded performances since jimmy died. just goes to show how much of a loss it was for them :/

[@criminalminds613]

you know he was jimmy's best friend for about 3/4 of his life and jimmy even lived with him for a while, and then all of a sudden, he was there and then hes gone, ya i would look like that too.

[@Kick_w1lko]

when i heard those base notes at the concert...i died....

[@lemagnifique1573]

Syn be like Syn : guys i think i wouldn't participate in the show, i feel so heartbroken after Jimmy's passed Matt : cmon man we all sad and heartbroken, but we must perform for our fans Syn : okay then *Syn on the stage*

[@TheJdog56]

I can honestly say yes.

[@harleymetal01]

@DokruoChanSarah i had been waiting 3 years to see them!!! and i got front row!!!! the best night of my life!!!!

[@sonder006]

Jimmy is the best drummer in the world, but that doesn't mean every single song on this album is about him. All of the songs except for 4AM were recorded with him. In other words, all the songs were written and added to the album before he died.

[@xryguyx05]

They wrote most of the lyrics after he passed. The actual music was all written before he passed. The lyrics to songs like Nightmare, Danger Line, and I believe Fiction were all written before he passed, but other than that, it was pretty much all written about him.

[@TheHighroller28]

Actually shadows even said that every song on the album, other than nightmare (which was written before jimmy passed) was dedicated to jimmy, and the only reason nightmare itself is on the album is because jimmy loved it so much

[@brianmulhern1073]

Jake Hostetler this whole who album is basically a tribute to Jimmy it may have been written and recorded before he died but it has the feeling like its a tribute album

[@conziartzquit3334]

so you are trying to tell me so far away and victim was written before his passing??

[@mnrs1327]

that's not true portnoy does the drumming on almost the entire album

[@ollyrogers1714]

syn may be highly emotional, but he's just absolutely smashed off whisky, watch his video about loving surfing, and his nails were basically cut off two days before the show, and he had to get them heavily taped, and have a shit load of whisky to get through the show. You can see his fingers are clearly taped sometime around halfway through.

Lol its just the way he plays. I've seen them live and Syn just has that glassy expression through the whole gig

I just realized the this song was dedicated to "the rev" when he going through hardships

[@TheREVisInOurSoulsJS]

I hope you guys understand that the members of this band can be sad from time to time and it's not always because Jimmy passed.

[@puppetmaster8551]

I mean around this time it was very likely because of Jimmy passing, they’re performing an emotional song that Jimmy helped write. Most of them were best friends since they were young, that death hit them very hard and performing certain songs was definitely tough. Obviously they can be sad about other things but nightmare era they were still mourning the loss of Jimmy.

[@DokruoChanSarah]

@harleymetal01 Man, they blew my mind!

[@TheREVisInOurSoulsJS]

Well if someone close to you died would you be upset about it like Syn was in this video 2 years later?

[@peepers811]

Mags Burns Plus he was a big part of the songwriting for this song.

[@911copcar]

They need one more rhythm guitarist, it sounded 'lighter' in some parts like 0:57

[@egeddiey3686]

911copcar I think this song is done with two leads and one rhythm.

I thought Syn might have just been tired or bored, but then I saw the upload date. 🙁

[@HatchedGeneration]

@alberca90 They often do have mistakes and are an amazing band. I'd prefer there live stuff over there albums any day. The best band live in my opinion is System of a Down though. Best concert i've ever been to. Can't wait to See Avenged Sevenfold live again though.

[@BBubbles0990]

Will, it may be depression, but it could also be the fact that he is just tired and worn out. I think they've been on tour a lot over the past few years and they really haven't he

[@Kooka1000]

I really like the talent of syn playing guitar... but damn he looks bored live since a couple of years... I think its why i prefer Zacky actually...

[@unknowngaming1432]

Also at this time The Rev had passed away so he was probably depressed over that.

[@briannowack4077]

I would not be suprised if Syn left to do a solo act/side act later on. He is the best lead guitarist out there today. He has his online school now with papa gates (guitar guy).

[@dunderdickflin4378]

Prefer Zacky but Syn Gates is about 100x better.
