Even though no one could ever replace Wayne Static, XerO does an amazing job. Not to mention, it's literally like seeing a damn ghost of Wayne Static onstage performing, and that's a big thumbs up to XerO as well. 🙂🤘👍

@@johnbrown5787 Yeah.. He suffered from anxiety quite greatly and self-medicated. Medicated too much and past away. Seems to be the norm for musicians and actors/actresses... quite sad
When I seen the thumbnail for a split second I was like damn legends don't ever die huh? We miss you Wayne Rock In Paradise, good to see them back in action.
Mission accomplished Xero. Carrying the torch of a band that is gaining new listeners daily and doing songs justice. You don’t have to sound perfect to honor Wayne, keep rockin!
F-cking epic, man. I grew up on these guys. I remember being 19 years old driving across the countryside to go visit my girlfriend, jamming this song out like a total maniac. Wayne was an amazing vocalist, and Edsel is holding it up to perfection in my eyes.
Oh damn! I haven't heard these guys in way to long. I used to jam to these guys back in my late teens up to my mid 20s. I'm 36 now and this music is STILL Killin it 🔥
Awesome tribute and seeing this! Edsel does a good job with these songs and really honors Wayne I think. Also on a side note, I must say that he sounds like Dez Fafara. Like fking spot on. He could fill in on DevilDriver and sound right on. He's definitely talented and makes this kick ass! Rock on! 🤟🤟
I saw them when Wisconsin Death Trip came out and when that song came on the pit opened up and was just as sacrificial as it was life giving, I'll never forget it lol
I met these dudes in 2002 at house of blues myrtle Beach. Got autographs and chilled for a bit. They were very nice and gracious to us all for being there. The show was top notch.
@@ModelZero I bumped into a guy at a 311 show at hob myrtle b. Then, 5 years later in Danville Virginia at a bury your dead show. I agree! Small world indeed
I had the pleasure of opening up for static X a handful of years ago when Wayne toured under “Wayne static and static x” soooo many people packed in that bar for that set, it was insane! RIP, my dude.
i only saw them twice joys of living in the uk. im glad they are doing this in memory of wayne and celebrating the old times. iv seen most of the videos on youtube with tour footgae its been awesome.
Saw Dope, Static-X and Powerman 5000 Live in Phoenix in the very late 90's or the year 2000. They were All amazing and one of the best concerts ever. I have been in the Snake Pit on the Metallica Black tour, the Big Boys. My husband and I still talk about it to this day. RIP Wayne Static. 🥰
@@kjcorder No, damn it... now I can't remember.lmao. it was across from a 711 and we all raided it when the concert was done like a bunch of idiots.lol. I want to say it started with a D though.
Its been 20 years since i seen static x at the palace in hollywood and i never heard or seen anything like them wayne was the fucken mann as soon as i seen them on the tour with rob i knew i had to see em Again rip wayne
Song @ 3:00 I was lucky enough to see Static-X 5× before Cult of Static came about. I don't say this lightly, the OG line up & Xero really nailed it. It's eerily close as it can possibly be to Wayne. Tbh, other than not having Wayne and his personality there talking to the crowd, musically there is literally almost no difference. Insane energy. They fucking killed it last night!
I have been saying the same thing, Xer0 is amazing and he does interact with the crowd. Not to mention he sounds eerily like the Static man himself. It's like Wayne never left us. I do hope they perform stuff from Project Regeneration though, because that album is a banger from start to finish.
Omg, I was going to go to this same show but my dad said I could pick between This show and the Mötley crüe one the next day but by then I got tickets for crüe. Kind of sad but thanks for the great videos! I’m watching all of them right now lol
I was at the Gorge at George in WA state the first time I heard Static-X. It was the middle of the day... main stage; but no one was on it. Everyone was at the other two stages. The girl I was with had gone to use the restrooms. I was literally leaning against the main stage waiting for her. A few guys came out and started tuning gear... I thought they were roadies getting stuff ready for later in the day. Wayne came out, plugged in... and then my mind was blown. They kicked into Push it and I was literally stuck in place. My GF came back... we were going to go see Drain on the B stage... but I wouldn't move. I bought their CD that day before we left the festival, and we listened to it all the way home. Years later, I saw them again in Spokane. I can not even put into words how much I appreciated their music. Those memories will always be with me. I wasn't sure at first how I would take the mask... or the tour; tbh. But this is one of the most honorific things I have seen in my life. Getting old sucks ass... but they are keeping it alive for myself and so many others. I love it. That's my piece. Thanks for the video.
I’ve seen Edsel early on when dope was fairly new and he truly is emulating Wayne’s voice really well! I’m grateful I got to see these guys a couple times way back with Wayne! R.I.P
😁..💙💚 Remind me of those shows downtown Minneapolis on Fridays Saturdays and Sundays 🤣 when they let out..they use to be drunk as hell Static X🔥God Bless them and their Families R🥀P Wayne ❤️ Tera
Saw them in Dallas this August. Amazing set. I never would have thought someone could hold a candle to Wayne's performances, but this is about as close as humanly possible. Definitely going to try to catch them again next time they come through town.
I'll be catching em again in okc March 9th, seen em again 2 weeks after I posted this video in Iowa at freaks on parade. I can't get enough xero fronted static-x. Rip Wayne, but xero is the man now and he really kills it
I like to think that this is the zombie version of Mr. Static back on stage. They blew my mind at Freaks on Parade. I hadn’t seen them in years and holy crap they have not skipped a beat. Awesome 🤘🏼
I remember seeing Static-X years ago at the Blue Note in Columbia, Missouri. Fucking amazing and intense, Tera walked out on stage and flashed the audience and Wanye just pointed at her, smiled, nodded at her and everyone, and gave a thumbs up. It was the show I've seen.
Dude Wichita Ks! I've seen some incredible shows in that town: Zombie, 6 Feet Under, Napalm, Prong, FF.....they definitely had a ton of great bands come through back in my Ks days.
Analysis from huge fan: The fact of the matter is since Tony couldn’t get along with Wayne while he was alive and refused to play with him until his death, it’s definitely a little weird they would get the band together after he died. Some think they shouldn’t have. I’m sure they were sad afterward and wanted to finish things their way and get some closure. But once again, Tony didn’t want to play with him while he was alive. And was Wayne perfect, yes lol, but absolutely not, everyone knows Tera’s influence on him and his infatuation with her was just plain unhealthy due to their addictive personalities. The drinking was always excessive (“Shots!” Is something you heard often throughout a Static concert, yet he continued to play perfectly the whole time lol). But then he started to take her pills. Wayne needed someone who had their head screwed on tighter. As an enormous Static X fan, in 2009 or so I was confused as hell to see his new wife dancing on stage half naked during the show. I thought it detracted from the music and was just weird. I liked the Static X concerts I’d been to before that one, where there wasn’t a half naked chick acting a fool on stage during the music. Music was still awesome tho. It’s no wonder all of that caused problems between Wayne and the other band members eventually. So Wayne eventually goes and does his own thing and then he dies. It’s a sad situation however you look at it. At first, I thought this wasn’t right to get the band together without Wayne, but in the end, who am I to say. Static X will forever be one of my favorite bands and I love all those guys, Wayne, Tony, Koichi, Nick who I liked best on drums, Ken, and even though it’s nothing close to Wayne like some of the other people have commented, it’s better than nothing. So in the end, if people are enjoying it, and it’s helping the guys get some closure, I’m all for it. I’d like there to be more mention of Wayne during the show and more images of Wayne, cause while he wasn’t the sole rights owner of the name Static X, he was the looks and the sounds and heavily featured writer of the band. The mask idea while controversial to some is honestly pretty cool. I think we all wish things could have been different and Wayne was still around. It’s important to become aware of, accept nonjudgementally, face your feelings, know why you’re feeling them, and strive towards strength, love, and positivity, rather than ignoring your feelings and acting on external desires to cover them up or chase a fleeting happiness. This includes drugs, but also seeking it through a relationship with someone as well. A relationship can be completing if your mind is in the right place. Your happiness has to come from within. Wayne was an awesome dude and person and amazing musician and we all miss him a lot. The band touring without him is a reminder of that.
Tony is gonna realize if he hasnt already that he is gonna regret reuniting with Wayne before he passed. And this is as close as he will get to reconciling with Wayne.....ever
Probably the best explanation to it. I don’t hate it. At best, its the closest way for Tony to reconcile with someone he couldn’t do at the time. And I would assume Wayne is smiling at the love and such given by his peers and band members right now.
I heard that as soon as "Push It" ended that there was a stampede to get out of the venue & to the parking lot. BTW - that ZON Legend 5 string bass is around $6000+ depending on how it is configured. Had two of them & they are the best. All composite neck - -no wood (only the body is wood). Plus Joe Zon is the friendliest nicest guy that ever owned a guitar or bass guitar company. He makes you feel like you are as important as Billy Gould (Billy has a Zon signature model - the Sonus BG4).
@@RailRidersUnited thank you for posting this. I been wanting to see static x on UA-cam but no one was posting this tour so thank you. I’m seeing them in Vegas in august and in Phoenix next March 🤘
I knew wayne way back in the early 80's I hired him and his band for their first paying gig they were a 3 piece band and did stuff no other bands were doing, The Police, Gary Myric plus some more main stream stuff. we went to a party one night after they playede and there was another band wanting to hire him to sing for them but he was telling me he didnt know if he was good enough I just laughed and told him you have a great voice a profesional voice never thought it would have been this kind of music but he was certainly a talented musician and an even better person

Saw em before the pandemic they were GREAT!
Dope doing a great job!
Still damn good. Rest in respect, Wayne. 🤘
I heard that as soon as "Push It" ended that there was a stampede to get out of the venue & to the parking lot. BTW - that ZON Legend 5 string bass is around $6000+ depending on how it is configured. Had two of them & they are the best. All composite neck - -no wood (only the body is wood). Plus Joe Zon is the friendliest nicest guy that ever owned a guitar or bass guitar company. He makes you feel like you are as important as Billy Gould (Billy has a Zon signature model - the Sonus BG4).
Idk, but there definitely wasn't any stampede to get out of the venue
Was a great show 🤘
It was indeed🤘
@@RailRidersUnited thank you for posting this. I been wanting to see static x on UA-cam but no one was posting this tour so thank you. I’m seeing them in Vegas in august and in Phoenix next March 🤘

I knew wayne way back in the early 80's I hired him and his band for their first paying gig they were a 3 piece band and did stuff no other bands were doing, The Police, Gary Myric plus some more main stream stuff. we went to a party one night after they playede and there was another band wanting to hire him to sing for them but he was telling me he didnt know if he was good enough I just laughed and told him you have a great voice a profesional voice never thought it would have been this kind of music but he was certainly a talented musician and an even better person
That was a great show!
