Before the show, Brian McFayden of MTV was there and he was booed rigorously.

I'm not a huge fan of Glassjaw and after their performance wednesday night I doubt I'll ever become one. The music didn't really do much for me and the singer was talking to much about his beleifs, a few here and there don't bother me, but he did it before nearly every song. After Glassjaw finshed their near half hour set, the crowd waited impatiently for the headlining deftones. When the band finally came on, I almost didn't recognize Chino with his new, darker, look, he put on some weight, didn't have his hair spiked, and had a full beard and moustache. Not untill they began the first song, which was be quiet and drive, did I know for sure that this was no farce. The band blasted the song out like experts, and the crowd was instantly insane. I'm not sure of the exact set list but I know that notable crowd pleasers were around the fur, my own summer, and 7 words among many others. The new songs with Frank the DJ sounded great also, many of them featuring Chino on guitar as well as vocals. After playing about an hour, they left breifly and then came back for one encore. My rating on the show on a scale of 1 to 10 would be a 7 based only on how much the Deftones kicked ass because Glassjaw was not for me.
