Christmas with CKY - "Close Yet Far"

[@warmwinter983]

Still crazy seeing this 12 yrs later. Also RIP Tony dubz

[@DrowningThings]

I fucking love how Jess is just sitting there totally unphased by it all.

[@ghostwxlf]

So this is how CKY ends..not with a bang but a whimper.

[@THAxILLEST]

Hard to watch man deron must have been really going thru some shit glad to see him in a better place these days just met him super nice guy

[@ekojmart]

what's worse than this is the way he's acting like a 15 year old on Facebook :(

[@Rschr101]

Nobody over the age of 15 should have a Facebook.

[@iHATEsaraSMO]

I was right up front for this shit...so fu**ing sad.

[@disengagejam]

still feel very strange: wishing i went to probably their last show ever ... then again kinda glad i didn't go and still remember the good times throughout the years : (

[@TheHugsGoWild]

pretty lame to witness. CKY is an amazing group. I think Deron just didn't feel like CKY could get any better. I think they could. Maybe he'll sober up and realize what's good for him.

[@MoonstruckRules]

Shit, man. I get goosebumps watching this knowing that I'll probably never see it live again.

[@cliffordphillips8390]

the best version of close yet far

[@Themadclown13]

this is so embarassing to watch, can't imagine how Chad, Jess and Matty J felt on stage... fucking shame

[@SamanthaScarlette]

no words. i can't believe he threw his guitar at jess. he could have hurt him badly. :(

Everybody has at least one person in their lives that are dealing with depression and/or anxiety, thankfully there are a lot of wonderful medications to help those struggling better cope with their problems. Unfortunately, alcohol by itself can magnify positive and negative aspects of people, but when you add alcohol to certain medications you end up with somebody that can be very unpredictable and even terrifying to be around. I used to live with a couple and the female took medication and was great during the days. Once she drank though she became a MONSTER...would scream bloody murder at her boyfriend and slice him with giant kitchen knives, it was absolutely horrifying to be around. I'm not saying Deron is a bad guy, but if he is mixing medication with alcohol I can only imagine the stuff that has gone on behind closed doors for years. Get help Deron, please.

[@macbrick66]

this happened a long time ago, i last seen them play in Toronto 2009, after Carver City came out in the spring, you posted your comment 5 months ago, Deron has a new band now, hes doing great

[@daffanurfauzan1220]

@@macbrick66 True. He's also admitting the times like this video is his worst ever moment in his whole life and he learned all mistakes he made

[@TonyWillsDGIT]

Can people please not give the video a thumbs down if you're just doing that because Deron's actions deserve it. I understand, he gets a thumbs down from me too. But you're making it harder for my videos to be seen by new people with every thumbs down. So if you genuinely think the video itself is horrible, do whatever. But if you're just reacting to Deron's actions, post a comment or go hit him on facebook and let him know. Thanks!

[@peterohanraha-hanrahan3022]

I gave my thumbs down 4 years ago. I came back today, saw your comment and changed it to a 👍 Better late than never!

[@OfficialForekast]

Well you just proved you have no clue how KZbin works. Dislikes, likes, it makes no difference. KZbin shows videos based on relevance and a number of other criteria. If dislikes caused videos to not be seen, then a hell of a lot of hated videos wouldn't keep getting views.

[@peterohanraha-hanrahan3022]

@@OfficialForekast This video has less than 10k views. Dislikes play a big part in whether or not this ends up in people's recommended videos. They'll still have to have been watching related videos though.

Awesome! Pure entertainment! People got more than what they paid for! The shock and terror keep me sane!

[@drewwagnon647]

5:04 damn chad... poor guitar

[@poster-boy]

I really wonder what deron said to chad during the song. I think he changed some of the lyrics in a passive agressive manner. Like im sure i heard him sing " I've lived for years unsatisfied" and right after he was talking to chad during the song he said something about "(???)... mean to me..." if anyone knows pls respnd

[@fraternovaeres]

"PLAY THE CHORDS!"

[@HoursAwake]

I have no words for this.

[@Rschr101]

Deron is cky. Bands break up all the time, they had a great run. 2002-2003 was a fun time to be a fan and a kid. I'll always listen to them. But the new band with Chad singing is garbage and should be called something else. If Deron isn't singing or writing the riffs, it's not cky.

[@warning2814]

That makes no sense, Bam to this day owns CKY, it was never Derons band

[@TheTillhammer]

@@warning2814 It does make sense. Deron came up with the name and wrote all the songs.

@skrilldawg and a meltdown

[@dreamsellerxxx]

this is saad, to see deron go like this :(

[@jtapp2222]

I don't see what's so bad about this show. It still didn't sound that bad. Technical difficulties happen at every show. This isn't the first time someone has thrown a guitar! Everyone still seemed to have fun but maybe I'm wrong.

[@TonyWillsDGIT]

Jtapp There were no technical difficulties, trust me. I wish I could have shot more footage. Deron was blatantly sabotaging his equipment so it wouldnt work properly. In one of the vids he says the guitar wont work so hannah picks it up, plugs it in and turns up the gain and strums a power chord. Worked just fine. There were other instnces. There probably was minor issues, but they were the typical live glitches. The stuff he was claiming, after blantantly messing with his equipment, were mostly lies. I saw him unplug from his pedals at one point. And compared to a show where every member of the band is taking it seriously, this whole show sounded bad. CYF sounds so flat without both guitar parts especially.

[@TonyWillsDGIT]

Jtapp And yeah, the people in the crowd who didn't know about the band drama had a lot of fun, as did I and the rest of us. But when you see what's really going on and how 1 member of the band is trying to sabotage the show because of behind the scenes drama, it definitely hinders the experience. I remember just looking around at other Alliance members facepalming and head shaking in disgust, but also laughing at times..

[@TonyWillsDGIT]

Tony Wills like a nervous, embarrassed laughter mostly.

[@Fromagreatheight]

Just because you think you're a "rock star" does not give you permission to go so wild you fucking chuck a guitar at someone. If no one consents to this behavior you shouldn't be doing it. No one wants to fucking be doing music and almost get hospitalized because someone who isn't yourself almost fucked you up with a guitar. Again, rock doesn't dismiss common human decency.

[@peterohanraha-hanrahan3022]

@@Fromagreatheight Here he is again haha I still agree dude!

[@jojosnowball]

Was this at Reverb

hey deron, 12 people want their refund back

[@mitchellclark1863]

Sounds like Deron hit the percussion with his guitar completely accurate. Ok look obviously they were a band, people try to judge/hate on Deron chad Jess whatever. You were not in that band they were! let the opinions of the inside of that rest on them . Just enjoy the music.

[@THAxILLEST]

Fuck ya dude cky alliance for life

[@rcorness1735]

...this is pathetic

[@AylaSpry]

I don't see what the big deal is tbh

[@peterohanraha-hanrahan3022]

This was the beginning of the end. Deron had serious alcohol issues at the time and completely sabotaged this show.

[@411yourname]

People dramatize what happed that night. I heard stories of this show and I’m only now seeing this for the first time. Im sure Deron meant well while he was doing all that.

[@peterohanraha-hanrahan3022]

Dude what? Can you not see him deliberately fucking his guitar up??

[@OfficialForekast]

Yeahhhhh, no. I was there that night and he was a fucking disaster. After getting off stage, my buddy and I were standing at the merch table and Deron walked up and exclaimed "What is this garbage? People still buy this shit?" - Yeah, sure sounds like he meant well.
