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
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.
I am somewhere in this crowd. I loved bamboozle I was so upset when they changed it to skate and surf except for the year they held it at six flags that was dope
@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.
I was here the pit was deadly I remember seeing people getting knocked out and broken noses left and right at one point the pit went all the way to the Ferris whell all the way in the back of the lot
Agreed from Portland, Oregon. Looks fucking perfect. I am seeing The Acacia Strain on sunday, I will let you know if it turns out this good. Probally not though, we dont have a venue that big here D:
@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
@480borat It actually is one of the biggest rushes of energy I've ever experienced. Plus, if u got to a show and NO ONE is hardcore dancing, it feels like the crowd/venue is completely dead.
never seen event staff get into it before... holy fuck!! nice!! \m/ now this is what metal is all afuckingbout! metal fans uniting as 1 to enjoy a badass show from a sick ass fucking band.... not getting on youtube on mommy's window's xp bashing suicide silence for continuing on without mitch.... start the revolution! lets unite! \m/ metal 4 life!!!
@Twinkie280 actually, i have never been hit by a hardcore dancer before. That generally doesn't happen unless you are in the pit with the hardcore dancers. I only go in good old fashioned moshing pits and walls of death.
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.
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
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.
@goalmaster14 The acacia strain is more about the message then the music. Don't be a fan but don't talk shit, this band is the realest out there. This music is meant to be fun, and provide a outlet for anger. If you don't like that then leave, and go argue about another band on youtube. The Acacia Strain is here to stay because they have loyal ass fans that get the message.
That guard is all about this band haha
Darryl McDaniel
yes love it!
The ORIGINAL and BEST version of this band. Long live DL!
Best, absolutely, but far from the original.
you know its good when event staff is gettin into it
Straight up trying to hardcore dance while getting paid
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

i've never seen so muich movement in one pit. this makes me happy.
Does anyone else miss DL?
Almost ten years
LOL!!!! I've watched this video SOOO many times and never noticed that!! Thanks!!! HAHAHA!!!
own the fucking space you're in and all will be fine. it's all about getting that aggression out.
Absolutely brilliant shout! I made sure I could see the guy!
I saw them back in 2007. It was absolutely chaotic and a blast.
3:17 that big guy in the purple. Oh my god that's hilarious.
Wowzers Batman, this band never ever disappoints. I love em!
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!
Still one of the best live videos around
I get chills everytime I watch this video :D
2024 and still coming back to watch event security get down to Acacia. I love it.
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.
I am somewhere in this crowd. I loved bamboozle I was so upset when they changed it to skate and surf except for the year they held it at six flags that was dope
I seen that, Dude thats some great security work right there.
i don't think i've seen anyone as happy as the kid 3:17. he's jumping for joy! hahahahah
I'm normally in favour of IEM's with stage wedges turned off but that's an unusually good sound for the stage!
I've never seen that before. thats pretty metal dude. every concert I go too there as still as fuck.
Ahhhhh the good ole days
It takes 2 guys to do what DL did in the band
@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.
i think this is the best pitt on youtube...=}
FUCK YEAH!
I think this is one of my favorite videos of people dancing, its looks so fucking sick.
Omg -3 seeing them in march, Soo stoked
@xraycat18 lmao that was pretty good. Nice catch!
check the Event Staff! hahaa
You can tell that dude is about the core haha.
Now that's what you call loving your job haha
the guy with the EVENT STAFF shirt on is hell getting in too it haha.
One of the best bands ever!
I was here the pit was deadly I remember seeing people getting knocked out and broken noses left and right at one point the pit went all the way to the Ferris whell all the way in the back of the lot
Chris Randazzo They always get down. Saw them a bunch of times and that shit was always brutal. So fun.
+crooshflow - Agreed. Every time I've ever seen the Strain shit got rowdy af.
Saw them with oceano a year or two ago. Dislocated limbs, blood and sweat were the majority of the pit. Super rowdy!
I love the event staff guy on the bottom left in the beginning. haha
I love these guys.
Agreed from Portland, Oregon. Looks fucking perfect.
I am seeing The Acacia Strain on sunday, I will let you know if it turns out this good. Probally not though, we dont have a venue that big here D:
normal ppl wouldnt survive this 👽\m/
haha everytime i see vincent.. he reminds me of my dad!
the way he looks/dresses it's so funny xP
Ahahaha the event staff going nuts! LOL.
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
I Love These Guys!
damn too bad i missed it. yeah i wouldn't mind seein them
I love how into it that staff member is getting
@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
My god they are soooo amazing

One of the best shows I have ever been to. Are you going to any shows soon? I Declare War should be good

"FUCK YEA ACACIA STRAIN!"
@480borat It actually is one of the biggest rushes of energy I've ever experienced. Plus, if u got to a show and NO ONE is hardcore dancing, it feels like the crowd/venue is completely dead.
Hahahaha! That's the funniest comment I've read in a long time! Right on!

@Twinkie280 actually, i have never been hit by a hardcore dancer before. That generally doesn't happen unless you are in the pit with the hardcore dancers. I only go in good old fashioned moshing pits and walls of death.
Did anyone else notice the fuckin' security guard getting into it bottom right?! hahahahaha epic video
Love how the staff is headbanging
That guard's getting into it.
goddamn, i feel like this was yesterday its been almost 4 fucking years and they've only gotten better
This drummer is a fucking human metronome gosh damn he is on point
even staff event was head banging thats cool aha
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.
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
Ah DL, how we miss you.
God I wish they were playing this year's Bamboozle.
Good set, good show. Tore shit up for this band that day as always.
security guards liven the dream hes getting paid to be at this fucking show and hes lovein it
Those aren't triggers. Triggers are more compressed.
This video was filmed from side-stage, so it might be his actual kick.
that security guy is a legend!
Haha security guard to the right at 1:15 is feelin' it!
i watch this video everyday
That security guard must be having a good time lol
aha i love the security guard on the right bottom side, he looks like he's about to jump in the pit himself
Even the security guard is headbanging xD
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.

haha the acacia strain is so brutal people are getting down before they started playing.
