I just heard that Deftones bassist Chi Cheng just passed away, and wanted to share a short story with you. In the early 2000s, we went out on a European tour opening for Deftones which we jokingly called the “Endless Winter Tour” because we followed cold weather around the globe for what seemed like forever. Spirits were a bit down, because it was always freezing and we kept getting sick.
One afternoon, we had a cover photo shoot for some rock magazine, and Chester was late. We were just starting to be discovered by fans in Europe, and the photographer wasn’t familiar with our band.
As we were waiting for Chester, Chi was walking by, and in his typical warm, friendly style, stopped by to hang out and mess around with us. The photographer, seeing the new person there, and watching us together, assumed the guy must be in the band. “Okay, is everyone here?” I remember him saying.
We looked at each other, laughing, and told the photographer: “yep, this is our singer, Chester.”
We proceeded to do an entire cover photo shoot for the magazine with Chi from Deftones standing way out in front, pretending to be the singer of Linkin Park. Chi was hamming it up, doing exaggerated rock star poses. It was hysterical.
My love and deepest condolences go out to the Deftones family, and hope that fond memories like these can stick in our minds during this tough time.
RIP Chi
Buscando alguna frase bacan para decir en este momento, pero no se me viene nada a la mente, no sé que decir…
Sabía que este día llegaría, pero no lo hace menos doloroso.
Chi Cheng, fuiste, eres y serás una gran leyenda.
con el corazón roto en mil pedacitos
