They hired Ivan Chavez, a 2023 graduate of the University of Monterrey film school, to oversee/edit the video. Lalo Plaza was the audio engineer with Beto Ramos, Pau’s drum teacher, doing the mixing. Brian Bogovic, from Halestorm’s team, did the lights and graphics.

Pau clearly has 2 brains. One with limb independence for drumming and one for singing, entertaining, managing Abelton etc. 😎👍

I love how the girls are all in character when they hit the stage. If you have ever watched any of their interviews or home, behind the scenes, goofy videos, they are such sweet little ladies and then they turn into larger than life beasts when they rock out for us!! Actually one of my favorite things ( besides the music ) is the facial expressions and mannerisms.

The wall of sound these three produce is crazy,and their ability to stay in perfect time blows me away

Zed, I think that we should!!! ❤❤❤DPA!!! This is an opener for many shows & features Dany solo blast right out of th gate.🤘

I love that Pau "brings back" her old "high sticks, smack the snot out of them drums" style, for visuals, stage presence, or even just the sheer joy of it! She's honed her skills to the point where she can really minimize her motion for maximum efficiency, she shows that a lot these days, but here we get more her original high sticking style - she doesn't NEED to, she WANTS to! (And it's EXCELLENT showmanship and stagecraft - very visually engaging!)

Love these ladies. When Dany explodes with that PRS, a wall of sound.

This one works really well as their show opener when they are opening for someone like Halestorm or Muse. Gives folks just a little chance to get a feel for them one at a time before DPA starts melting faces. I can tell you that an unknowing crowd really responded to 'Z' as an opener when I saw them open for Lzzy. I agree with you that Pau & Ale could do that intro line for days. A while back when I was listening to Ale play the horn part for Charlie Parker's 'Donna Lee' on your Ale video, I thought that Parker & Dizzy could have done a great bebop chart on top of the 'Z' intro. Or James Pankow writing a killer horn line for Chicago with that foundation. It could also go full on Iron Maiden. It is a groove that could go a lot of different directions, including cheerleader punk. The snap/crack from Pau's snare is something that caught my ear from the very beginning of my descent down TW rabbit hole. I have also always enjoyed how she uses her floor toms as a feature and not just an accessory. And less in this song, but I very much appreciate how she so tastefully uses her double kick pedal, not very often, so it really gets your attention when she uses it. LOL, Guitoo soloing with Alion fingers. Quite the lexicon you are building here, Don.

Wow - you mentioned the bass drum at the start sounding like a bass guitar - so yeah, I checked the pitch - yup! Amazing - the bass drum is tuned to the same note as the root of the song - the first bass notes of the riff match the drum perfectly! Now THAT is attention to detail!

Ales bass lines are amazing and so clean ..and she’s 18 ..I mean just wow

Thanks, Don! They are undeniable rock stars of incredible talent.

Awesome Don! So many highlights in this song. Pau’s cracking snare to open it. Ale’s groovy bass line. Dany’s chainsaw guitar tone. The way Pau leans wayyyy back to engage her floor toms always gets me hyped! Dany’s awesome solo with the guitar hero theatrics (and yes, great video editing). Ale’s “tuininini-tuininini” (excellent callback of the Ale/Dany bass lesson, which was epic). And Pau closes it off with a scream reminiscent of Evolve. Such a killer opening track. So much fun & energy!

Great to have you back Don😊🤘! The solo from Dany in this song is one of my favs from her with the bending and tapping. I love the way Ale struts out on stage at the beginning here in a cool way that only a bass player can lol. The bass and drums intro is very appropriate for The Warning with the rhythm section that they have too.

Just awesome in every way, what else can I say.

Was Dany adjusting her in ear monitors towards the beginning of the video or was that something to do with her guitar interface? You commented about Pau being entertaining to watch and I have to agree. Every time I come across a Pau Cam video I watch. Depending on her chosen camera angle sometimes you can see when she starts and stops the click. Since you mentioned her being aware of where the camera is at all times in the 23 video I’ve now started to notice every time she sneaks a peek in various songs. That drum intro is so amazing. Then the build when Ale comes onstage with her bass intro and the crescendo by the fans when Dany runs onstage. It’s enough to give a guy the chills.

The Warning will be an "Extended Play Stage" performer on Tuesday Sept. 12 at the MTV Video Music Awards!

If Z doesn’t prepare you to be Rocked, you’re already dead. 😵

Don! Glad you’re up and running. How did I miss this? Great reaction and analysis as usual. So glad you mentioned the tuning of Pau’s Toms. Her tech has that set so dialed in and how does her snare head even survive? Everything about these shows was so well produced. Their team (“extended family”) did a fantastic job. This is what is coming to their headlining shows and I don’t think the world has caught up enough yet to understand…but the world will be Warned.

Don , check out the Warnings 1st public performance. Nachos and Gangas - bar/restaurant 2014. Pau already in beast mode!!

I watched Ale yesterday on Ale Day, it was almost 55min of her putting on her makeup.

There is a fan video from this concert that shows some awesome close shots of the girls on the stands and crowd interaction not on the pro shoot. Definitely worth watching.

Hey Don, great reaction. I love Dany's solo in Z and seeing her tapping makes me thinking of another guitar goddess - Tina S. Tina and Dany had lessons by the same teacher:Renaud Louis-Servais

Fun Fact: Pau's home/practice drum setup has 14" and 16" floor toms but in concert she uses 16" and 18" floor toms... i'm not sure what she uses for studio sessions, though... some Fun Facts about *Z* : 1. *Z* has been their opener for numerous concerts... 2. the title of this song, "Z", is short for "GenZ" or "Generation Z"... they thought it to be "too much" so they shortened it to just "Z"... 3. yes, they do reference their song Kool-Aid Kids in the 2nd verse: Wear the blindfold, drink the tide Who will we destroy this time? Revolutionary Kool-Aid kids Happiness, the lowly traitor Kill the raw, one like, one prayer Disappointing how we're used to fall (I think that you should) 4. this song, a cup of c0ffee, and a donut are the perfect start to the day! 😹 TWA ⚡🤘😸🤘⚡ TWA

for the ERROR tour, they have been opening with Disciple, which is more like the secquencing of the ERROR album, but I think Z is the better opener for a concert. The one thing they need to work on for their overall performance pacing (and it hard to catch this by watching this live concert footage as it is edited) is the amount of time between songs. This isn't as much of an issues for their 30 minute sets as an opener because they structure those differently to force them to be quicker paced. But they should take some of that pacing and apply it to their 45-minute sets for festivals, which there will likely be more of in the near future as they have achieve main billing status as an evening performer. With their headliner shows, Dany does a fair job of talking to the crowd while covering for guitar changes and such, but if you watch fan cam recordings of their shows, you realize the pacing could be tighter. What would take them to the next level is streamlining the process. If what slows down the show is the guitar changes alone, they address that my arranging the setlist to minimize the number of guitar changes, grouping songs according to the guitar (and it's special tuning, etc) they use. The rest of it is just making the transitions more efficient. And if they schedule in brief rests for catching their breath, which is also a huge consideration not only for them but also the crowd, they could do something like their "Jar Song" break, of some game with the crowd like what Band-maid does in their shows. Obviously, such things are minor tweaks to their shows formats that once they incorporate them they will hardly be notices except that their pacing will be more high energy and will leave the audience even more pumped up. It is important I think for them to trade off vocals during the opening song(s) to demonstrate for anyone who is a first timer in the crowd to understand a major feature of their sound, that all three of them can sing. So, I understand using Disciple as their opening song because Ale has a short part where she does a lead vocal count. Lately, they also use Choke early on in their shows because they have swapped to Ale singing the low acapella vocal lead in that song.

Hey, fellow musician brother! I just wanted to let you know that you've been on my mind lately and that you're missed. Hope to see you at some point soon. Take care and be well.

I think it's safe to say that Pau really, really thinks that we should.

Woo!

Pau: Professional Perfection. Dany: The Consummate Front Woman/Lead Guitarist/Vocalist. Ale:Thunder Goddess, the glue that holds it all together.

Hi Don were you on Bel Development. I watched the end today . The 4th. I just found out he's in Lethbridge same as me. I really like the end of the scream

As impressive as Danys solo is in this song, my favorite is when she was handed the guitar by Eruca Sativas lead guitarist when she was in the audience and just picked up and tore it up on the spot...😮

-Z , un muy buen tema de rock ,lleno de furza y energia un excelente solo y un buen mensaje ,Ale y su muy buena linea de bajo y el relleno de Pau ,un tema corto pero lleno de poder The Warning nuevamente demuestran su gran capacidad de composicion son un talento

thanks Don. Great review as usual

One Reactor says Ale moves just like Gene Simmons of KISS

Two videos in 24 hours?? Okay. Let's check it out. Oh. Going to finish the London Private show?? Or you'll just start the Teatro Metropolitan show?? This is video one of that video minus some of the behind the scenes at the start of the show.

Don, This is going to be a non-music question. Why don't other Reactor's have the same format at you. We get to enjoy the Video not the persons Big Head and the video is minimize not them. hank you for your format.

If I could ask them one question it would be what does "kitchen knives the meanly saviour" mean.

Your mic sounds way better. What is it?

You're missing a lot of good TW stuff lately. New music evolve/more from the mtv VMAs.

A little too many pauses in quick succession for me, and most of the pauses are obvious to the viewer, don’t really need to be told what images are on the screens behind them, we can see. I appreciate your enthusiasm but am frustrated by the amount of pauses in quick succession
