The Devin Townsend Supermegathread! - Page 105

Black_Sheep · 07-26-2011, 12:30 PM

I just saw DTP last saturday at Tuska Open Air festival in Helsinki. It was awesome, as expected. I also got to meet Dev, and he was the coolest guy ever!

Asrial · 07-26-2011, 03:38 PM

Am I the only one who actually went to a Devin concert and never met him?

Sad panda. If I could, I would defo join in UK for the project concerts, but I am broke. >_<

Black_Sheep · 07-26-2011, 04:24 PM

I met Devin at a meet & greet thing. At first i thought it would be really quick handshake, photos, and autographs, but he actually took time to talk with most of the fans. And that was really cool.

thought I'd share this with you guys as this thread seems more then fitting

I was looking for a Keeley two knob compressor pedal earlier this year and happen to come across Devin Townsend selling one over eBay as apart of an "online garage sale" he was doing. I snapped it up and Dev was kind enough to write a little note on the bottom of the pedal to my band

I also met him in April of last year at his Adelaide show of the Australian tour and he came out and mingled with all of the fans after the show and made sure every single person left with an autograph or picture. really cool to see!

That right there is why I have so much respect for him. What a nice guy.

I would take a screen shot, print it poster size, and frame it. Wait, that's probably a little over the top...maybe I'll just tattoo his post on my back!

She did vocals on Addicted, unsure about Ki

Anneke van Giersbergen

jackfiltraition · 08-09-2011, 02:28 AM

Anneke van Giersbergen only sang on Addicted if I'm not mistaken! The female vocals on KI were provided by a singer named Ché Aimee Dorval who was about 16 or 17 around the time she did the guest spots on KI

Stealth7 · 08-09-2011, 02:33 AM

Yeah both of you are right!

Just looked it up on Wiki.

Sicarius · 08-09-2011, 02:38 AM

Anneke is amazing. I love watching the videos on YouTube of her live sets with Danny Cavanagh from Anathema.

fps · 08-09-2011, 02:40 AM

Going to see him play an acoustic set tonight, then a guest DJ set at another location after!!

DLG · 08-09-2011, 03:22 AM

awesome live clip

pineappleman · 08-09-2011, 02:01 PM

That is the single greatest live Devin Townsend video I have ever seen.

Sicarius · 08-09-2011, 02:24 PM

You haven't seen the Deadhead video yet, then.

his face when the guy tries to take the shirt.

priceless...

He posts all the time on his forum

Sicarius · 08-09-2011, 02:35 PM

But this isn't his forum.

yet.

Definitely one of my favourite female singers. Such a shame she left The Gathering

Lukifer · 08-09-2011, 07:22 PM

Epic video is epic! I need to find Ziltoid because Ive never listened to it!!! It will be mine!

eveningninja · 08-09-2011, 09:48 PM

I just wanted to say I agree with the people who said Townsend is the coolest guy ever. When he's up on stage he's like a freakin super star, but after the show he walked by me and my friends and we barely even recognized him, just mistaking him as such a normal guy.

He's so humble and down-to-earth, a real pleasure to talk to. The most awesome conversation I've ever had with a famous musician that I've met. He was talking about how he never really expected this to become his life and what not, to have come this far, and then goes on to ask where the nearest restaurant is that he can get some vegan food

Honestly, I like their first album with her, but they're quite boring instrumentally IMO. As long as she does random projects with the Dev I'm happy.
