Was thinking the exact same thing, but then Metallica had to be little bolloxes and announce Download, won't be able to do both, but then again, i have just had a cunning plan.

Funny enough Kerrang magazine has a list this week of their 50th heaviest albums of all time, it's a fairly decent list with minimal crap (strange for that particular publication) and Slayer are No 1 while Sleep are a solid No 17 with Dopesmoker

Reign in Blood naturally

Pretty bizarre support for Slayer. Unless I'm thinking of a different Sleep.

NIBBS

it's a Festival - they aren't supports for Slayer, and to be honest it's Slayer that are a different choice for this one....the Melvins are on the same day as Slayer I think....

Slayer thread?!!

That's a rarity but tbh so is metal at ATP I attended one a few yr back to see Suicide primarily but it is definitely typically more uh.. bohemian orientated let's just leave hipster aside for now. as slayer are playing

Motley Crue

I would love to see Slayer again, they were excellent at Sonisphere...even with Gary Holt

Hadn't seen them since 2003 before that, how time flies:(

yupyup7up

seen em play in the Apollo in 2004 twice and they played Reign in Blood in its entirity. was unreal! Met Kerry King in Dublin in 2005

LH Pathe

I think they can't be bothered w/ here since the SFX got reduced to rubble. anything else is just too plush

I was at both those gigs, they didnt play the album in entirity. They had a sprinkler system set up for raining blood and shone red light through the water to create the illusion it was raining blood which was fairly cool.

In fairness I remember them playing the Ambassador over 2 nights being supported by Mastodon...can't be sure when that was now, but I was out of Dublin at the time so didn't go

i think we are defo due a tour date at this stage they have completely skipped us on this this new album tour so far .luckily i did get to a birmingham show for the tour ,ive seen em 10 times now and still hungry for more .they are at present also in the writing process for the next album .

ive met them all but lombardo and tom .when i met em bastoph was with them .

Can't remember which night I saw them there, but I almost got squashed to bits at the start of "Reign In Blood". Just before it gets heavy..........a bouncer yanked my chair out from the front of the stage - hadn't a f**king clue what was happening!!??
