The Acacia Strain - Whoa! Shut It Down

The Bamboozle. Performed on the MLB Authentic Stage. Check the intro, pretty cool.

[@BrazenBullXXX]

Guard literally got paid to stand there and rock out in front of the carnage and mayhem that is an Acacia Strain pit. This man was a very happy man this day.

[@xthesickbeatzx]

That guard is all about this band haha

[@mattjohnson7775]

Darryl McDaniel yes love it!

[@zioz99]

[@danevandenheuvel321]

Straight up trying to hardcore dance while getting paid

[@Sako-Taco]

The ORIGINAL and BEST version of this band. Long live DL!

[@ridleysomeliana-lauer5814]

Best, absolutely, but far from the original.

[@sweatynutlover4827]

It’s 2020 and I keep coming back to this video. First time seeing this band and after that pit exploded they became my favorite band of all time. To this DAY they’re on my daily playlist.

[@danevandenheuvel321]

2023 for me haha

[@mindofmatter071]

I had this same similar situation happen to me the 1st time seeing them...now its a daily ritual! And just by luck i get to go see them at a Halloween show on October 27 in Dallas Texas 2023!🤘🤘🤘

[@simongillaspie3265]

[@angrydalailama6089]

[@Toddpeekence]

15 years since this was released. And still one of the greatest songs. Subjectively of course. But to know this song was old in this recording is special! Thank you uploadman

[@DiamondsAndGhosts]

[@DaxWyvrn]

3:17 that big guy in the purple. Oh my god that's hilarious.

[@realestate2181]

I saw them back in 2007. It was absolutely chaotic and a blast.

[@xpeterbearx]

You know a set is going to be good when the people are opening it up even before theres a song even playing. Sick Shit!

[@KicCam508]

Love seeing people mosh during the fucking intro before the band even takes the stage. Shit gets me amped. Same with seeing staff at the rail go hard too.

[@1594simonsays]

Still one of the best live videos around

[@xXHxCMuNkyXx]

[@KneelingBeforeLies]

Security guard can't even resist Vincent.

[@SkiLLz0O93]

aha i love the security guard on the right bottom side, he looks like he's about to jump in the pit himself

[@DontReadThisUsername]

@adamnitson I love how before Vincent yells "everybody! fucking! MOVE!", it looks like he's texting and just starts fucking killing it all of the sudden

[@Rareforms710]

My god they are soooo amazing

[@TheseBitchesWantNikes]

That guard rules. Hes hypin the crowd up even more

[@GuItArKiKsAsS]

[@azure8696]

normal ppl wouldnt survive this 👽\m/

[@TheKool129]

Lol even the event staff guy cant resist The Acacia Strain

[@coryjames80]

I like the event staff headbanging.

[@TheKierensaysmaybe]

Ah DL, how we miss you.

[@XxTSandy15xX]

that secruity guard is having a blast

[@th3m1ke]

@adamnitson Its because the guy filming is on the side of the stage - so he's getting Kevin's monitor sound of the trigger. The PA speakers are at the front of the stage and sound more natural.

[@JX315X]

lol even the security guard is getting into it. :-D

[@jakofaxle]

i love the security guy who clearly wants to be in the pit! ha

[@GIGADOPE]

At this point it's very rare in my area to see anyone hardcore dancing. I used to hate pits like that but now I miss it :( Now it's just push pits

[@bigchunguslivesforever]

i watch this video everyday

[@sergiegears]

i think this is the best pitt on youtube...=}

[@diablosrising]

@xraycat18 lmao that was pretty good. Nice catch!

[@1nightmare4u]

[@alyinchains]

[@grbgeslnger24]

Real nice dudes

[@DazandCona]

[@taskforcefuckyou]

[@freezeframe924]

[@highonfire3653]

@420Manik im a pothead and i love listening to them when im high there so intense its unbelivable

[@killinoiz309]

[@xvinnyscreamox]

[@RachelxRampage69]

Love how the staff is headbanging

[@ArchDemonNar]

blue hoodie guy is the coolest person there, hands down

[@SnDxAkiimbo]

When lead singers like Vince say shit like "open this up," that just implys hardcore dancing will occur. This is angry, negative music, and hardcore dancing gets all the energy out of the body.

[@Edenton5]

They are throwing down!!!!!!

[@jerodc10]

Air Max 90's never lose

[@cbeavs]

aww they look so cute in the front.

[@djupfrystmat]

Haha security guard to the right at 1:15 is feelin' it!

[@AustinAmpeloquio]

even the security guard is going in!!

[@karlradzikowski9157]

Jesus christ. I swear some kids in that crowd are windmilling so fast they're gonna fuckin take off. It's almost like im watching a helicopter impressions tournament

[@GoShift1]

the pit was nuts

[@MB16uhc]

[@xMAXIMO93x]

FUCK YEAH! I think this is one of my favorite videos of people dancing, its looks so fucking sick.

[@zg7271]

[@halfmanhalfshark86]

You can tell that dude is about the core haha.

[@zg7271]

Now that's what you call loving your job haha

[@deadlybuzzboi]

haha event staff is havin such a gud time,job

[@DREDQ]

this video is legendary (as a band).

[@TheMinisnail]

love the security guard!!!!!!!!!!

[@HaoleJames]

The kid in the Blue hoodie in the pit at 3:16 looks like a wacky waving inflatable arm flailing tube man

[@TunnelJumper]

I'm normally in favour of IEM's with stage wedges turned off but that's an unusually good sound for the stage!

[@MrRichardNoggin]

def best metal vocals

[@AshhhWearsPrada]

Love The The Security Guard Is Rokkkin Out xD

[@Absence_ov_Faith]

3:16 Now that's how you enjoy a breakdown, respect to those three front row dudes. Edit: and respect to whatever that purple hood dude was doing in the back.

[@TRIPPgothic]

i remeber seeing these guys at this years warped n remeber seeing a cloud of dust from the ppl moshing freaking insane
