That lobster claw monstrosity he came out with for the last tour was even bigger than the usual Vs. I'm sure that had a hand in why, every time he came forward to 'solo' I kept calling him the 'angry inch'.
I checked out his new guitar at a local GC. Felt like a toy. Hated it. It didn't seem that big, then again my guitars are all MLs

Oh god could you imagine a show with Slayer, Pantera, and Insane Clown Posse?

The top three most insufferable fanbases in all of music, all together in one room?

The government would be legally required to nuke that place.

Funny, because one of my first experiences at a metal concert was seeing Slayer at some festival in the UK maybe 25 years ago. I was a young teen, really short, skinny (not hit a proper growth spurt yet) and it was the first time me and a friend were able to go to things by ourselves. We saw Slayer play in some tent, not the main stage. This massive "biker" kinda dude came and stood by us, leather jacket, huge beard, covered in chains and spikes and tattoos etc. I was worried he might beat us up or something, but he was super friendly, chatted with us, and looked after us, making sure people weren't pushing us around or blocking our views.

And in general I've found most of the "old" metal (Metallica, Megadeth etc) crowds to be mostly very cool people.

You only think that happened because while screaming antisemitic epithets he beat you so badly that you went unconscious.....and were probably fingered a couple times

Holy shit, I forgot that I've fucking seen Slayer live, they were the HEADLINERS of the Unholy Alliance tour; god damn, just shows how unremarkable they were when the opening acts were Mastodon, Children of Bodom, and Lamb of God.

If I were Pantera, I would stay out of Ukraine too. Otherwise, Putin will have to de-Nazify the shit outta them.
He will preserve the vodka in them, otherwise they will piss it all out and waste the only Russian heritage that Pantera temporarily currently might have.
