I feel like they were almost being sarcastic producing that intro

[@demisemedia]

At the end Chino talks about how much he loves music and that it's what he lives for. I just met him March 31st in San Francisco, Ca. after a †††'s show and he came out and talked to me. I had my trusty acoustic guitar and asked if he'd sing over a song i wrote. Without hesitation he said "Let me hear what you got..!" I started playing and he was singing along, coming up with words at the top of his head! Great time!!! This man really loves music!!

"Moody music" Is the best way to describe Deftones really. When I need to feel a certain emotion I have a Deftones song for it.

[@paulinazenteno9688]

Absolutely agree!

[@Slagtheangry]

It's just really cool to get Chinos opinions on his music, especially back then (Pre-Saturday Night Wrist). I've enjoyed how the emotions evolved.

When she asks him where he sees himself in 10-20 years, it makes me sad cause nobody had any idea the massive loss of Chi that would inevitably happen. I am glad Deftones are still making music, just miss seeing Chi as part of the group.

[@yvesheinrich5013]

Sergio Vega is still a good replacement, and now that Deftones released Gore, they still have Eros to release in the future. I just hope they'll release it fast enough like in two years at best, maybe. They've kept the album on the shelf for so long...

Chino was asked the question "where do you see yourself in 20 years?" He said "still hopefully making music. Maybe not in this band but something to do with music it's the love of my life. Even if it's working in a record store." Shit only 3 years to go until the 20th anniversary of this video and Deftones are STILL together. They've even surpassed the record stores Chino, most anyway. Awesome interview and band. I love Deftones!!! :-)

[@alexmajano5081]

Yea it's crazy they've been a band well over 20 years now and still a band aside from the normal band issues they've actually never had a member quit the band which is pretty amazing. What did you mean by surpassed the record store though? Like he didn't have to work at one? Is that what you're saying lol.

[@TheHunter-en3bm]

+Alex Majano No I mean there are barely any record stores in existence. Most people download their music which has made the stores obsolete.

[@mrpopodatnigga7384]

+Jon Yeager actually there's thousands of record/music stores I shop at a lot to buy my music. I don't download anything, I use KZbin to find out about different music or my usual artists. Online ordering, music stores and KZbin is pretty much the only shit for me. You'd actually see more stores that sell music if you'd go out and look, unless you live in Tim buck too in the middle of no where.

This interview is brilliant.. I love bands like these.. I don't consider a lot of bands, good bands but deftones are defenetly on the list.. They are what i'm just begining to learn about music.. And in my opinion musicians shoud learn a lot from them.. They bring out their lives and soul print in the songs not only the lifestyle they live. That is what makes a band classic or just another garage band. I am very grateful to them for giving humanity their music and way of feeling and thinking.
