KORN - May 7, 1995 -Electric Ballroom - Knoxville, TN (UPGRADE FROM MASTER TAPE!)

[@Demonico-j7x]

I love the 94-97 era of Korn. They were young, hungry, wasted out of their minds and always looking to prove themselves.

[@Impuritan1]

Finally found it. I’m in that crowd somewhere.

[@Loki-sk7bi]

David’s drumming was perfection!

[@abovedeathpresents]

One of the most unique drummers ever

[@khaelemroque7398]

For real man, mad respect to Ray, but David's style and drums is trademark KoЯn.🔥💀🖤🤘

[@fumeedavis6866]

11:17 Man that head banging was insanely on beat

[@clintbrown105]

How Jonathon was able to that certain type of headbanging with the clown song!

[@morbidviews5827]

shit was poetry in motion

[@tomas23769]

Headbanging or Head banging- in the case of Korn, those are two different things

[@khaelemroque7398]

Its JD's signature its unreal🤘🖤🔥💀

[@jasonwhitt9890]

This was the first concert I ever went to, the best one of my life. I was 18 y.o. at the time. Had a great night. Lost my left shoe while surfing the crowd to Danzig later that night. Lol

[@desert_iron_123]

Didn’t korn open for megadeth in another tour as well? I read a few articles

[@weshoskins74]

@@desert_iron_123 Yes they did a tour with Megadeth and Fear Factory was on it as well. I believe it was a summer tour and according to Dino from FF it was so hot that Munky and Jon would pour water on their dreads to cool off in between songs. Because of that, water would end up on the stage floor and one day Dave Mustaine walked out and slipped. After this no one was allowed to have water on stage

[@kylekelly4648]

I have your left shoe if you want it back.

[@danielalabernribas]

David was on 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 what a drummer, what a groove

[@terry10tnj]

One week before I was born! lol korn was my favorite band growing up my dad was cool enough to take me to see them for the first time at family values tour 05 with deftones and stone sour

[@anjybowers-ramsey6232]

I was at this show!! It was my 26th birthday!!! I was right up front in the middle. Shook Glenn Danzig's hand. Was surprised when he jumped off the stage behind the barrier how much taller I was than him...lol. I had forgotten how great this show was!! Many great memories with great friends that, some that are nolonger with us.

[@groundbeef7587]

it's Creepy and incredible they sound the same or better than on the album

[@JasnoGT]

For such an early show in their career they all looked and sounded extremely professional. Kudos to the sound crew too. 👍

[@vxrdrummer]

They were an established professional touring band by this time, but I know what you are saying. There are some shows on KZbin from only a year earlier where they are nowhere near this tight and polished. What a difference a day makes!!!

[@abovedeathpresents]

@@vxrdrummer well they had been on the grind for years at this point. Check out their LAPD days

[@LeadMe2TheBliss]

@@abovedeathpresents Don't forget about Ragtyme, which featured Fieldy and Brian Welch that band formed in 1987, even before LAPD. LAPD's music isn't bad but the singer is pretty awful.

[@ScarfaceMich]

Raw old school Korn

[@vxrdrummer]

The best kind of Korn!!! I never saw them live until 2000 in the UK, but to go back to see them touring for the first two records, or even on Family Values would be what I would do if I had a time machine! Probably the Life is Peachy cycle would be where I woud go first, then Family Values and Follow the Leader touring, and then first album. I've seen them a shit load since 2000, so I'd be happy if my time machine helped me do all that stuff from the Raw Old school Korn days. No camera phones either!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@vilimbubas1302]

In my opinion that band was most close copycat of Nirvana, although they are more metal i still consider this grunge

[@martim7605]

Divine sounds extra groovey when they play it as fast as they did at this show!

[@sleepyskaterzzz]

I saw them play it live in January 2020 and it sounded really slowed down compared to the album

[@MonroeFayte]

Seems like a life time ago. I was there. Now I tell my kids. They still think I'm lame lol

[@VA-2A]

It's a shame how bad Korn has gotten

[@aaroncollins5188]

I hear ya, I saw them twice in 95. First show was at a tiny club in Boston called Axis which is long gone and they had Sugar Ray open for them. And btw Sugar Ray was playing metal back then, no DJ! Different era. Korn blew one of the PA speakers with all the bass.

[@Jean_1999]

I would simply call their music lame. I mean Im 20 years old and pretty much grew up in nowadays generation and if that is what they call music than I dont know what is not music for the generation nowadays xD I mean even a chicken making fart noise would be music nowadays xD

The 2nd wave which was bands like Linkin Park, Papa Roach, and Staind I didn't care for those bands as much!

Great footage! I wasn't at this show but i saw them for the first time in Nov. '95 in Cleveland. Little club called the Odean. Sold out show & fucking amazing. Can't remember which bands opened for them now. Maybe Orange 9mm & Downset, but i think i may be confusing that with a Deftones tour early in '96.

zznonagonzz lol thats a lie. Welch used dope for years and quit the band because of it. He good now tho

[@FilthTribeFTP]

@@bobbyboucher1855 Head only used speed full time for like the last 2 or 3 years of his first run in KoRn. He had to hide it in ingenious spots in his luggage as they went to countries where bringing in narcotics carries the death penalty. But yes, they all used speed off and on during the first few records and would normally put it down right before leaving on tour for a few months.
