| Saw American Carnage (Slayer/Megadeth/Testament) Last Night
The show was AMAZING!!! I was expecting a good show, but
nothing compared to what I did see. All three bands played great
sets, and there were very few flaws in their playing. | 1 | | Testament The Formation of Damnation
These guys were a great opener for the show. Chuck Billy growled a lot
more than I was expecting but it ended up being really great. Paul Bostaph
was a manic behind the kit. I couldn't hear Skolnick or Peterson that well,
only enough to just make out the riffs (I was only about 10 feet from the
stage at that time.) Greg Christian was pretty much inaudible. Despite
these setbacks, and the fact that their set was only about 35 minutes, they
put on an awesome show. The Wall of Death during their last song was
cool to watch too. 4/5 | 2 | | Megadeth Rust in Peace
Since they are my favorite band, I was hoping to see them the most. They
went right into Rust in Peace, playing through the whole album before
finishing with five other songs. Dave's vocals were much better than I
anticipated, and his and Chris Broderick's solos were flawless. David
Ellefson was pretty high in the mix and played all of his solo parts in Take
No Prisoners, Five Magics, Poison Was The Cure, and Dawn Patrol. Shawn
Drover was pretty amazing too, I'd say he is only second best to Nick
Menza. These guys put on and amazing show, definitely my favorite part of
the whole night. 4.5/5 | 3 | | Slayer Seasons in the Abyss
I did not really know what to anticipate from Slayer. Most of the recent live
videos I've seen they played sloppy. I was blown away. They started with
World Painted Blood and Hate Worldwide, then went into Seasons in the
Abyss. After that they played a few more songs including South of Heaven
and Raining Blood. They finished the concert with Angel of Death (Tom
actually did the scream pretty well, which was a total surprise.) I was on
the right side of the stage, and I could only hear Kerry King's amps. This
ended up being really good, since Jeff Hanneman's solos were sloppy and
King plays most of the riffs anyways. Dave Lombardo was, as always,
amazing on the drums. Although Megadeth played better than Slayer,
Slayer put on a better show and were a great way to end the night. 4.75/5 | 4 | | Overall Album
This was an amazing concert. If tickets for the second leg are still available I recommend getting them.
Having to sit through Anthrax is worth it for seeing Megadeth and Slayer. Compared to Metallica last
December, the only other metal concert I've been to, all three of these bands were way better. | |

09.01.10 | Dryden, you have to all caps FUCKING SLAYER. | demon of surveillance
09.01.10 | They probably passed out during the show. It was really cool, literally 5 seconds after my dad dropped me and my friends off we waved at Kerry King (and he waved back at us) as he walked by. We didn't get very close but while waiting in line we saw Shawn Drover, Tom Araya, Dave Mustaine, and David Ellefson. | Jesuslaves

09.01.10 | I really don't. The material sounds sloppier and the crowd noise just bugs me. | OvrotLivesAgain
09.01.10 | It's the experience!!
The fervor of the roaring crowd as you know every word and riff the artists are playing.
You become euphoric and achieve nirvana.
That is FUCKING SLAYER. | FruityCatOfDoom
