Watch Footage Of A7X’s First Show With Brooks Wackerman

Avenged Sevenfold have released an awesome video of their first live performance in over a year.

The metal titans played a free gig at First Avenue in the States on August 18 and introduced new drummer Brooks Wackerman – who has taken over following Arin Illejay’s departure back in July last year.

The show served as a warm-up for A7X before their opening slot with Metallica at U.S. Bank Stadium tonight (August 20). Not a bad way to welcome their new member into the band, eh?

Check out the footage below, and let us know what you think the comments!
