In a recent interview with Avenged Sevenfold bassist, Johnny Christ, he was asked about the power outage at the San Bernadino, CA Ozzfest. Johnny Replied:

"When it happened I figured I'd just grab a beer and wait it out. But once we heard the "A7X" chants and fires breaking out we thought it might be a good idea to head to the back. Security thought a riot might happen and told us to grab our shit and wait on the bus. We said "Fuck that!" we're going to wait this out like every audience member. So we kicked it in the back for a while and once the power came back on we torn that bitch down."

yeah, A7X kicks a$$, you can tell when a band is there for the fans more than the music, the way they stayed and played shows they really care for their fans.
