DEFTONES: Performance Footage Of 'Headup' From Spaceland Available

November 21, 2008

DEFTONES has posted video footage of the band performing the song "Headup" on September 18, 2008 at Spaceland in Silverlake, California. Check it out below.

DEFTONES bassist Chi Cheng has not shown any further signs of coming out of his coma, according to a new post by his mother, Jeanne. Cheng was gravely injured in a November 3 car crash in northern California and remains unconscious and in the hospital. Although he showed some signs of response last week, Jeanne now wrote, "Chi's condition remains the same — serious, but stable. He still lies in a coma, however his vitals (heart, lungs, and blood pressure) all exhibit very stable functions and doctors have begun removing much of the excess monitoring equipment. Chi remains strong in his fight to recover."

Cheng's mother has been posting at the DEFTONES' studio blog but will now start her own to keep fans updated on her son's progress, saying, "DEFTONES will continue to update you on Chi's condition when there's a significant change in his condition."

Cheng is 38 years old and is a poet as well as a musician. He released a CD of his poetry called "The Bamboo Parachute" in 2000.

Cheng has been a member of DEFTONES since its formation in 1988. The band released its debut disc, "Adrenaline", in 1995 and scored a platinum record with 2000's "White Pony".

The group has been recording its sixth album, "Eros", with a spring 2009 arrival in the works.
