I was just thinking about this the other day. The first time I'd seen them live I was maybe in 7th or 8th grade and they opened for 311 at UNO Lakefront Arena. Nuts.

I was there, with about 7 friends ( 2 were bandmates). We were so big into Deftones at the time that about 3/4 into 311’s set we walked out. As we’re walking down the ramp, who do we see exiting the tour bus which was parked down below? Frickin’ Chino. We burned a couple of cigarettes with him and shot the shite for 15-20 minutes. One of us had one of those Polaroid throw away cameras and we took some pics. Still got ‘em to this day. Some of us had met the band before in Lafayette and once in Houston, and every time they were real cool and down to earth. I remember this well bc they played UNO on Friday night and Acid Bath played Zeppelins on Saturday. Great weekend in the city...
