anyone going to slayer tonight?

[MetalHeadMike]

I do actually get your point. I have been a Slayer fan since Show No Mercy came out, i am 45, and yes it is not the same as it was, but they are still bringing the goods and they are worth seeing live still. Was a very good show. And Gary does a great job as Jeff, solos are close to the originals he is tight.

Still miss Jeff very much of course and it will never be the same without him but a great show none the less.

You’ve been listening to Slayer since you were 10 years old?

????

Yeah i have, i grew up on Zepplin and Sabbath and Priest, my dad was into that big time. Then my cousins started bringing Venom and Maiden and Tygers of pan tang. Then Slayer and so on. When i heard Show no mercy, it was a background album, liked it but did not get into it as i did not understand what the hell was going on. I came back to that album a couple years later when Reign in blood hit.

Show no mercy is still one of my favorite albums of all time, it is unbelievable for it's time. Such killer riffs.

I’m smashing my face with a bat because I’m jealous of the incredible head start you got. I didn’t hear of Slayer til 1985 when I was 19 (Hell Awaits). Earlier that same year I heard Metallica for the first time (Ride The Lightning). Up til then the heaviest thing I’d ever heard was Black Sabbath (Mob Rules). What an awesome musical upbringing you had!!

Lol

Thought you meant it was like impossible!!!

Yeah i was lucky to have my dad listen to heavier stuff, it paved my way. My oldest son was way into Children Of Bodom at 7 years old, i was blasting metal in the house till 3 in the morning back then.... Well still am!!!!! Lol

When i work on bikes in my garage, it is METAL all the time, i am a metalhead true and true. A lot of ffiends i have dont understand, they say they listened to metal when they where teenagers!!!! And grew out of that

I will never grow out of Metal, wtf, as a matter of fact, i will never grow up..... Fuck them!!!!!!!!

Lol

I get the same thing from friends and family. They just don't get that it's in my blood and it isn't an age related you'll grow out of it kind of thing. I'm well into my 40's and don't see myself listening to anything else anytime soon. In fact, it seems the music I listen to has gotten heavier the older I get

Totally sig worthy statement.

I learned Show no mercy from beginning to end. The boys in Pantera used to bag us for loving early Slayer.

Yeah man my kids were into LoG, Testament, Slayer, etc by age 5/8. Dad is a bad influence apparently. I had an older brother so by 10 I was smoking cigarettes, stealing beers and listening to thrash and metal. That was 1984...

Would be nice to see.
Saw them when they did the Unholy Alliance Tour back in '06 at Long Beach Arena.
It was the most "evil" feeling show I've seen.
