^I wish i was rich enough to do that lol. (for the record i'm not actually poor, infact my family is quite rich, i was just stating my parents don't give me money i have to pay for everything myself)

[QUOTE=Butcher]Yeah. If I could, I'd see them on every date in America. I remember when I bought Metallica tickets there were these 3 biker guys talking about how they were following on the tour and had seen them like 8 times already just on the current tour.[/QUOTE]
Their funding probably comes from mugging kids at the shows. :)

:lol: probably. They didn't look like well-to-do rich people.

Same here, well I wouldn't say my family is rich. But once I turned 16 my dad has made me buy all my concert tickets. :( Oh well.

I've always had to buy my own concert tickets because my dad obviously doesn't want to listen to the same stuff that I do. He says that if I want to see a band he doesn't want to then I have to pay for everything, minus his ticket.

Me and my dad have very similar tastes in music. Except he doesn't like death metal. But most of the thrash bands and other metal bands that I like he likes. Which is cool, we had a jolly time headbanging at Metallica. He wanted to see Slayer with me last year, but he's handicap and the venue last year was all stand up venue (no seats or stands anywhere, which is lame) and he wouldn't have been able to see them.

So this time he's going to get to see them, but yeah he bought his own ticket and made me buy my own.

I got my dad intop Opeth, but only their soft material. At least it's a start.

and why was your dad handicapped?

:lol: My dad is the exact same way with Opeth. We almost went and saw them on Monday, but we thought it was Tuesday, and we missed it.

Um he's handicap because back in '83 he had Ewing Sarcoma which is a kind of bone cancer, so they gave him maximum radiation treatment and now because of that he now has lymphedema, which is where his lymphnodes retain the water, so his left leg is extremely swollen. And the cancer at away his hip so he can only stand or walk for very brief amounts of time.

So did I. I played him the Damnation album and he liked it a lot. I don't think he'd like Demon Of The Fall or Master's Apprentices. haha.

So, Erm, I need your help.

I'm going on Saturday to get Raining Blood. Is there anything else I should get too, cos my guitar tutor, told me to Get Raining Blood and nowt else, as the rest isn't great but, Y'Know. Is there ouwt else I need?

that sucks, i'm lucky my dad likes almost every band i like
comes in handy if you want to go to a festival or a concert
just hanging out with dad like hes one of my friends,
... accept when hes drunk ( none of my friends get as drunk as my dad)

Fariplay gigs aren't really that expensive. I spend more on transport there and stuff than the actual ticket.

Slayer is without a doubt one of the greatest bands to ever record an album. I think we can all agree on that. It makes me think though. Why wont they headline thier own annual tour?

If you like Reign in Blood, you should like Hell Awaits and Show No Mercy.

Oh I'll get them too, then.

Good :thumb:

Hell Awaits in my opinion has Slayer's best work. If you like Hell Awaits you also might want to get Haunting the Chapel, but there are only 4 songs on it, though those 4 songs are extremely awesome.

Hell Awaits (title track) is on of their best songs. In addition to being a favorite of mine.

Oh no way, the vocals on Hell Awaits are way too bad. Tom Araya is capable of so much more, as you would see later on South of Heaven.

There are some good riffs on Hell Awaits, but their songwriting abilities weren't at their best by this point in the band's lifetime.

Fools! You will pay for your blasphemes!

:lol: Hell Awaits is a great album but it only lacks decent production qualities.

I'll say.

[QUOTE=Poofy 666]They made me giggle = I hump things when I hear it[/QUOTE]
That made me smile.

I guess I could see why people don't like Hell Awaits. But I simply love that album.

So I just bought my 3rd Slayer album. Hell Awaits. Fukk the start to that song is awesome.

/boner.

Yes, it truly is.

So is anyone going to do that live chat with ESP and Tom Araya on March 20? I might do it. But I really have no questions. I might just sign up to see what questions are asked and what he answers, he might give some hints about the new cd.

go to [url]http://www.espguitars.com/[/url] and you can sign up. It's free as well.

I believe Im going to do it. I want to ask Tom why he wont headline an annual Slayer tour.

What do you mean? Slayer not headlining?

[QUOTE=Butcher]What do you mean? Slayer not headlining?[/QUOTE]

Slayer is headlining this up-coming tour.

CoB and Mastodon are trading between 2nd and 3rd. LoG is forth and Thine Eyes whatever they are opens.
