Ah yes, I had almost completely forgotten about the ridiculous 7 string trend. Still, it amounts to roughly the same thing. I'm a little embarrassed that I made such an egregious error, but It's been a while since I listened to these guys. I like to fuck around with drop tunings myself, but it's usually to record rhythm parts that have a more "Good Morning Captain Outro" type of feel than to play out and out metal.
I'm glad you had fun at the show. For all my shit talking, I actually have a lot of respect for Deftones. Saw them at (blegh) Warped tour way back when, and they saved me from wasting the entire price of a ticket.
