Jesus, this band is somehow exactly the same but complete dogshit without Burton singing.

Dino has said Burton can't pull it off live at all anymore and from what I've watched from live shows he's not wrong. FF has a special place in my cold cynical heart. Saw them at a small gross metal venue in town in 99 with static x and system of a down opening. Holy shit I couldn't hear for days after. Was also my first taste of static and SOAD ... Both touring their debuts that I consider masterpieces to this day.

The biggest suprise was watching SOAD not knowing what I was in for. Standing in what would turn into the pit as they opened with PLUCK.

I had the same thought after searching for some live shit. A lot of these guys were probably just immortal in their own minds and felt they didn't need to take care of themselves and they are gonna live forever. Gotta take care of your voice, it ain't gonna last forever. Anselmo and Burton really display that first hand. It's amazing Corey Taylor has as much left as he's got - he was one of the smart ones that figured it the fuck out before it was career ending
