Equilibrium's original stuff had a very unique sound to it that you can't find in any other band. I have realized this after hearing how bad their latest songs are and going on a search for a replacement, only to find that there isn't anything similar. It's a shame they didn't stay true to their sound and are chasing popularity.
I think that was Carol Brown at 6:54 ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-KyIHoZcynls.html . She hated me after the Arlo and Seeger gig at Hartwoord. I was the head sound guy (the owner of the sound company told me he was out of there).
I remember when I was working at the Fulton Building during the 1996 ice storm/flood watching the ice flows on the Allegheny and then an entire section from the Fox Chapel Yacht Club - with boats and all - just smash into the Sixth Street Bridge pier in a ball of splinters. Then watching the Wind Symphony barge float up onto the flooded cars parked on the wharf and just sit on top of them when the water receded . ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-KyIHoZcynls.html Watching the ice flow down the Allegheny kinda made you motion sick... In the Fulton Building (now the Renaissance ) we had a basement parking garage and under that a sub-basement that used to take sewage to the river. About mid 20th century ALCOSAN had put a pipe in and capped off the giant pipe that went to the sub basement. Well, the cement cap blew off and it looked like a geyser coming out of it when the flood came up the thru the sub basement. We had fish flopping around in the garage. I recall Ricky Stern (building owner) laughing about it.
I did sound for those symphony gigs. Great story about that stage. As the summer shows progressed they'd do early morning rehearsals with a load in at 7:30 AM. I'd get there before everyone and go in through the back door using a key. I began to notice that every time I'd do this, I'd hear something crawling on the chain link "curtain". Figured it was a raccoon or some other animal. So one day I had one of our riggers - we called him Jungle Jim - and a city cop stand out front as I unlocked the door. I hear the jingling and then "FREEZE!". I'm thinking why would a cop tell a raccoon to freeze? So I get out front in time to see the cops talking away some homeless guy. I send Jim up to see what the heel he was doing up there. Jim comes down and says, "You recall that gray material you saw in the reed player's reed water cups? Well the guy was sleeping on one of the wooden light fixtures and defecating on the another one... been doing it for while since it was dryed up and gray..." Oh my god I thought... wow. I didn't have the heart to tell the orchestra's manager when they showed up. I did tell one of the IATSE stage hands assigned to them. I did tell him to get the reed players to start using lids on the cups. I think he told them something about paint/rust or similar...
When Deron and CKY divorced. CKY got mixing boards, the kids and the house, and Deron just got himself. Apparently “HIMSELF” is more than. Enough. Watching him play to 100 people and getting extremely close to fans, sharing the mic, singing and sweating on each other saturated in “heart and soul” as they scream the lyrics because they FEEL that shit is something you will NEVER see at a CKY show now.

How in the F does Deron play and sing this? This is quite a challenging riff and requires all my focus, I can’t even fathom attempting to try and sing it.
Ughhhh shit makes me so sad. I wish Deron and the boys would patch everything up and get back to slaying the living hell out of the music scene. I miss the Alliance days so much. Shout out to all of you ;} who were around back then 🤘🏻fuCKYou
Helgen had some of the greatest highs I has ever heard at the time I found Equilibrium. Easily the best range in a singer, right up until I found Mitch Lucker.
