I hung out with you and Matt at a Killswitch/machine head show in Toledo ages ago. We sat at the bar and had some laughs. You guys were really cool to us and didn't rockstar us. Then we saw you guys in Cleveland like 2 weeks later. Hell of a show.

The Destringunizing Process

[@sethforpharaoh9356]

That has to be the quickest setup I've ever seen from all packed to ready to jam! Good preparation goes a long way.

[@hilariopaniagua467]

A lot of videos like this don't show the whole process of setting up all the gear, it's really good watching it in real time with no cuts, thanks on that!

[@RobArnoldWorld]

Right on!

[@Samuraijake93]

I can not wait to hear the new rig live and see all the chimaira boys again! Crazy that's it's been over a year since the reunion shows already! Hopefully the chimaira train will keep running!

[@veenoir1991]

Its the OG lineup with austin D on drums, right?

[@Samuraijake93]

@veenoir1991 correct rob matt Jim chris mark and austin

Please come to the UK we love you guys ❤ I remember being at the barfly show in Liverpool brilliant show 🤘

[@billk9799]

You know we are expecting for videos from the rehearsals, right?? 😜

[@MuckingAboutWithMyHeadrush]

Ear level cab.. thank you! I've been doing that for years, I never understood why so many guitarists aim their cabs at their knee ears.

[@OlaEnglund]

Just tried this exact setup today, sounded good(not as good as in this video though)! All the best

[@everydayperson764]

FUCK YES SKWISGAR!!

[@RobArnoldWorld]

Ha! That's funny man because I watched your video as soon as it appeared and thought the tones you were getting were superior to mine, and I was definitely envious! Matt, the other guitarist in Chimaira is still using a 6505+ thru a Mesa at rehearsals this week, and I can definitely hear the difference. His tone sounds deeper, more driven, and real, in comparison to my digital representation. So in my opinion, there's simply no substitution for the real thing. However, the convenience of a smaller modeler based rig still seems worth it, and I'm looking forward to continue experimenting and improving my tone day by day. There's certainly a lot of options with this thing, and I'll get it figured out! Anyway, I appreciate you checking out the vid! I think we may be among the first TMP pioneers in the world of live metal! Cheers Ola! 🎸

[@ladeecewashuruhm6163]

What a great show! We really miss you Rob.

[@StevePeeleII]

can’t stop watching your content after discovering you yesterday. bravo

[@LowFrequencyOxidizer]

That dual guitar case is awesome!

Man I could watch videos like this all day . Have a killer show man!!!

I love how clean those peavy cabs look

[@Shawner1000]

so glad to see you guys active..

[@bolesallday]

Just seen you guys today at ink. Great show, as a fellow Ohio guy you guys are a true inspiration. Once again, Great show

[@RobArnoldWorld]

Awesome man! 👊

[@4thr634]

That section from last night’s set where you hit the whammy downward and the strings turned to mud… so sick. Never seen the band before but I loved every moment. POWER TRIP!

[@RobArnoldWorld]

Right on! 🤘😝

[@619dar]

Love this setup Rob. Everything's so simple and easy for you to play live. I can't wait to hear that Jackson being played live. So I'm hoping get a good shot of you all here on youtube.

[@coreyhillburn459]

Are you going to mic up the Peavy or go straight to foh from the tone master? By the way, my son asked you to say happy Father's Day to me a few weeks ago. That was one of the greatest gifts I've ever gotten from anybody. Thank you for being down to earth. It makes me respect you that much more. Thank you. 🤘🏽

[@RobArnoldWorld]

Hey I remember your son asking me that! Cheers man! 🤘 I'm set up for both scenarios. The cab will definitely be mic'd, and I'll let our sound engineer decide if he'd also like to take a direct line to FOH.

[@coreyhillburn459]

@@RobArnoldWorld heck yeah. I wish I could see you guys live. I tried in 07 but the tickets were sold out. Long story short, I met my wife a week before that show and asked her out to dinner. She said no and met me at the show. It was sold out that night so we ditched her friends and went on our first date. Been together ever since. In a way, without Chimaira, we wouldn't have had our date. Haha, life is crazy. Metal over everything🤘🏽

[@RobArnoldWorld]

@@coreyhillburn459 Haha that's rad! HMOE!🤘

This could be a side business in and of itself. That is impeccably clean and easy. Incredible.

I love how everything fits and is organised perfectly. You have a talent for this!

[@RobArnoldWorld]

Hey thanks man!

[@snop6176]

Excited for the show man! I live 30 mins away, it's gonna be BADASS

Have fun at the fest my dude! I wish I could be there for that show. But alas I am in the PNW 😭

[@joshuahussey7623]

Awesome sound as always Rob!! \m/

[@8KilgoreTrout4]

That guitar case is insane!

[@hctiwt]

Some good video of this show would be great.. Last time I saw Chimaira live was way back in '09 so any chance of a tour would be awesome too..

[@kreepthedestroyer]

Yeah last time I saw them live was NZ in 2008 with Korn and Biohazard. Awesome show

[@ericsmith6633]

Damn dude, I scaled down my rig and I still don’t set up that fast!! That’s awesome! I came down close to getting the tone master but I went with the revv g50 instead just cause I love revv amps so much and my tone is right where I want it, but this right here is the reason I almost went with the fender. Damn man. That’s awesome

[@everydayperson764]

I have to admit Rob, its weird seeing you with that Jackson, but that thing looks very comfortable to play. Also. The new compact rig sounds fecking swish!! 👌. Have good one. 🍻

[@cbolton81]

Sad I gotta miss the show this Friday. But I’m sure there’s gonna be more dates to come in the near future to check you guys out again.

[@oldmantod]

Neurotic or Fun -> Refining what you pack and travel with (and have for many many years)? I am the same way when it comes to traveling with camera/video gear, work backpacks, everyday carry, etc. Constantly assessing and refining makes you think through what/why you are traveling with.

[@paranormaldrummer69]

Hey Rob, are you guys planning on doing a North American tour or a new album anytime soon?? Man I hope so. I really wanna hear some new stuff from you guys and I'm super stoked to see you guys play live again man. If that's all you guys are doing is one show id love to know where bro. I live just north of Cincinnati Ohio so not far from Cleveland, so if that's where it is, I'm definitely there dude.. I was at the last one and you guys fn killed it man.. as always.. can't wait to hear you guys tear shit up again. Keep killin it bro.. 🤘🤘

[@RobArnoldWorld]

If I were you, based on proximity, I'd definitely try and catch us this Friday in Mansfield, OH!🤘

[@dojoe1876]

Rob, I grew up listening to Chimaira. I’ve seen you guys 6 times in Atlanta. I was there for The Infection, The Age of Hell and I was completely destroyed when you left and joined Six Feet Under… Crown Of Phantoms was my least favorite album because it didn’t feel like the band I loved… but I still seen them live. Shortly after that… The band retired… That day I cried. You guys were my favorite band. The Impossibility Of Reason changed my life musically. To this day, I get goosebumps when I hear Down Again. I’m sharing all of this with you because I hope you show this to the rest of the band… I was 15 when I first heard you guys. I’m 34 now… My one wish is ONE LAST ALBUM from you guys. One final album from the band that gave me so much joy in my teenage years and into adulthood. You guys are the greatest. I love y’all and hope I’ll get to see y’all live again. Fingers crossed for the stars to align for one final album.

[@RobArnoldWorld]

Cheers bro! Always loved playing ATL, and I'm glad you got to see us a handful of times. No one knows what the future holds! 🤘👊

[@dojoe1876]

@@RobArnoldWorld you guys killed every show… the pit was scary during PURE HATRED and I got WRECKED in the pit during Resurrection. The only thing that broke my heart, you guys never played Everything You Love when I went to see you, that’s my absolute favorite song. lol

[@RobArnoldWorld]

@@dojoe1876 One of my favs as well! Hopefully you hear it one day bro!

[@NoLimitsCommemorativ]

You don't need a bigger space. Your touring experience is more extensive than mine BUT, after touring I can say with 100% certainty that I want the least amount of gear possible. If I could get away with playing only 1 guitar and having a backup with a Kemper direct to house. - Thats all Id have. I hated hauling cabs, heads and everything else to boot so much so I sold 90% of my stuff after touring and my house is less cluttered. Have a great time!

[@Dizzy5996]

Man yall are one of my new favorite bands! Would love to see yall come out to Arizona! I hope I didn’t miss my chance to see chimaira live!

[@joshford60]

I used to set my cab on the top of my amp rack too! Played some small stages where having the extra room helped a lot, plus being able to hear yourself lol

[@aaroneliprice]

Chimaira has become, So god damn powerful Determination, Perseverance, Resolution... Resurrection Getcha pull 🪙

[@ryanriffs_1349]

I absolutely love this. unfortunately not able to attend so this is the next best thing. being able to experience it through other group members even members of the band is a great experience. Much love and respect to everyone sharing. I very grateful for this group. I wish nothing but the best for people going. Stay safe and have a great time. I'm really looking forward to see all the pictures and videos people share. Stay metal 🤘✊🤘

Massive fan man, with you totally on the string stretching, I play every weekend 2-3 times and when changing my strings every week the most important part is the stretching, if they arn't it is a NIGHTMARE and every song is a misery, especially with a floating trem or Floyd! Look around for a product called 'String Stretcha', save your hands :)

Amen!

Good luck at the rehearsal today, Rob! Loved it when you played the "Everything You Love" riff - I can't find any video on that song, do you have one ?

[@EclipseAtDusk]

My wife calls that one the Excalibur riff, the first time I played it they thought of Excalibur from Soul Eater, and the way he sings his name

Must be so cool to be in a popular / professional band playing shows, setting up your gear. That's all I ever wanted to do since I was fourteen. I got pretty close when I was younger, played in some bands with potential almost got singed to a few labels. Just didn't happen for me at my prime. Never to late I suppose and I still have a few tricks up my sleeve, but anyway. I'm totally living vicariously through some of your videos dude. 😄 You are truly a polished professional, so cool! 🤘

[@RobArnoldWorld]

I appreciate that bro and you're right... it's never too late!🤘

[@powersv2]

Streamlined gear for travel cuts down on needing a huge crew to support the festival/gigs yall. The Logistics and business of being a band has changed massively in 24yrs.

[@fatsuperfly]

Nice! Haven’t listened in while to be honest, but. Love these vids, and getting back into it. Just feels real and love the work on guitars, plus that sig was a beast! Your awesome love you, and I’ll catch your shows. Dude that rig looks awesome! Can it be overhead to travel? I want to jam with old friends but recording live in a jam. It looks awesome!

[@RobArnoldWorld]

Thanks dude! If you mean can it be in an overhead bin to travel on a plane, I don't think so! But I have a solution which you'll see in my next video!

The first time was at music as a weapon, I had never heard of you guys before. And my first thought was “Jesus these bass drops are insane” XD. I was so confused, I was like “is this core? Straight up metal? Both?!” And I fell in love as a teen

Or are you gunna just mic the Cab on stage? I heard Fender came out with some new updates for the tone master did you check them out yet?

[@RobArnoldWorld]

Thanks dude! I'm set up for both scenarios. The cab will definitely be mic'd, and I'll let our sound engineer decide if he'd also like to take a direct line to FOH. None of the new updates for the TMP were of any benefit to me. I did send them a list of feature updates I'd love to see, but none have been addressed as of yet.
