Man!, Your bass in Shepherd of Fire drives me mad every single time I listen to the song and the "I know the feeling of being damned alone, I got a storybook of my own" part come, it just gives me 50000Volts of pure energy!! I hope y'all come back to the stage very soon just like the old days!... All love from Egypt! 🇪🇬❤️🦇🏴‍☠️🇺🇸

JJ is one deep, full of wisdom (and experience) in this game of life. Every word he said just "felt right". I don't know how many people cried at some point during the interview but I'm one of them. Such an emotional rollercoaster. You can tell his friendship with Matt (and his wife) is very sacred. P.S I like how Johny held tears of awe the whole time😛😛.

Matt and Johnny talking about punk about an hour fifty into this was gold. Matt has a really great way of articulating a lot of thoughts and feelings I have about the Blink scene of punk. I always aligned more with the era he was into too and he put it a lot more eloquently than I ever do lol

So good to see M. Shadows on here. He’s so nice and respectful, but he looked so depressed during the whole video, not just in the thumbnail. I was expecting him to be more high-spirited. If I’m being honest, M.Shads is an amazing singer and somgwriter, and Johnny, you are such a personality and an awesome bassist.

Damn.... Johnny actually conducted a highly professional interview in this episode

As a kid, I always hoped I could see the personalities of my favorite band more. And now, the fact I can watch full conversations, and be able to draw from the free game you guys casually give out, it is honestly a dream come true to be able to listen to, and apply the information to my own music career. Cheers to you guys, I became a fan at city of evil and ever since the stage I’ve been more obsessed than I ever thought I could be. The prog vibe was amazing I can’t wait to see what happens next. Idc what you guys sound like, it’s always gonna be A7X to me and I applaud you guys for going next gen with NFT’s and staying relevant in the hard rock market. Seriously inspiring for a kid like myself making a name for myself through hip hop in Detroit. Much love, John Penman. 💀 🦇

Wow, I came for a video podcast to pass time, and saw M. Shadows was on the show with Johnny, them being in band together.. And in the end I got an amazing life lesson from JJ whom I have never even heard of or seen until now, which doesn't matter because I took what he said to heart, and that is exactly what he was saying from the lessons he was teaching at the end there. Much Love for a7x and J especially for this one, thank you for helping me see that I can make it through this part of my life, I thought I would be dead by 28... But here I am 2 weeks from my 28th birthday and I feel like I should keep pushing to be that me and do that do that I was put here for... I hope I can keep those words close with me in all parts of life. Amazing podcast guys. Thanks!

I just found out who JJ was, too, now. As it turns out, he's a longtime friend of A7X and was Matt's wedding officiant!

Getting along with everyone and treating everyone equal is key loved that it's not a taught thing you have to learn it with years of experience JJ is a real one.

When they started talking about how you never know someone else is going through all I could think of is “I see your angle, but we differ from our points of view”

By far the best drinks with show if not one of my favorite pod cast. So freaking entertaining. 2:25 minutes of listening to these two knuckleheads and some guy I’ve never heard of. Love to see more Now craving avenged live. Guys are so great

I'm was raised by a single mother as well. Born in a little town, poor, but have always been a dreamer. I've been published all over the world. Here's to hoping I run into the right people one day. I'd love to meet and work with JJ.

Kids football is a whole other level. Our first year in it and I'm over here yelling at my kid that this is the one time in his life I'm giving him permission to pummel someone. Take👏them👏down. Absolutely LOVE this episode!

JJ is super cool man and i never would have known that if it weren't for this episode

I LOVE Matt’s take on cellphones being a passing trend. Boy, I wish they were!

This Is my favorite episode (after Valary and Michelle one) i hope for part 2.

Even in that dorky shirt with the dorky haircut M.Shadows is my fantasy husband still.i got A7x tattooed on me with 7 red black and blue stars(id of added white too but didnt have it at the time)i almost got mrs.shadows but my baby daddy wasnt about to ink me up with that lol..hes the one who gave it to me:)❤🖤💙🤍i like how ttyeir freindship really represents California,and how the people r with eachother.theres not alot of racism there like other places like people probably assume i grew up there and Growing up being around a mix of mex,black and whites,feel tri-lingual lol,people may stay in their separate groups but r respectful towards eachother upon interacting ..its a good feeling to watch:)

Man. I love the vibes in this podcast and super awesome guests!! And I've been a fan of A7x for a long time and right now I'm working as an artist in a web3 environment. I'm glad M. Shadow learned about this Web3 technology and took benefits from NFT technology. I'm so sorry for the negative you got just because you guys used the technology to verify your fan's membership for Death Bat Club. When people hear word of NFT, they will think about the BAYC scene that flipped millions and a lot of greedy took these opportunities to steal hundreds of millions by using the name of NFT. I as someone who works in a Web3 environment really sad that our society doesn't even know the technology behind it and has already started judging, making fun of, etc. They love to hate rather than learn it. Just followed the DBC's account and I will get 1 of the NFT soon. I'm Malaysian and Idk when I can be there to utilize every benefit but I'll do it because I love A7X!!🤟

Was a great first show though - Disturbed, Soad, Lacuna Coil, Hatebreed, Dragonforce were all main stage
