    Just reported this thread, maybe a mod will then change it

    Every time i log into boards i see 'SLAYER JUNE 14TH" and get myself all excited, then 5 seconds later i realise it's an oldie and shout DOH, Every ****in time:mad::mad:

    Did it there earlier :pac:

    Gonna be weird not having Slayer around, kinda hard to imagine really.

    Have to imagine it's mostly down to Tom. He's been pretty vocal down the years of not liking touring and wanting to finish up sooner rather than later. His body has gotten some battering too!

    KK not a fan of touring either but i always got the impression it didn't bother him as much as Tom.

    Reign In Blood is their best album. However, I find Slayer overall puerile.

    Yeah for a band who's songs/lyrics cover stuff like murder, serial killers, necrophilia, torture, genocide, human experimentation, Satanism, hate crimes, terrorism, religion, antireligion, Nazism and war..

    I'm not sure puerile is the word I'd use..

    After googling the meaning of the word I can safely say Slayer are not puerile.

    Of the "Big Four" they probably take their craft the most serious i would think.

    Not puerile obviously, but way past their sell-by date IMO ...so a Slayer farewell tour is long overdue.

    Megadeth are much more "accessible" than Slayer and would attract alot of the hair rocker crowd.

    I'd LOVE to see them on a big stage like the 3 though along with their full stage setup but alas I doubt it will ever happen.

    Never been happier to be wrong.

    I'd love if Behemoth were on the bill too but Obituary I'm delighted with, they are unreal live.

    Think you have to be a 3 customer and sign up for their rewards. Wouldnt worry tbh, no chance this will sell out.

    Ah yeah, i know i'm more likely to go for seated though so would like something close. Whats it like in the 3arena - is the seating far back from the stage?

    Went to one of the Academy ones previously think it was towards the end of their summer run then, was phoned in I thought but saw them at Graspop 2 years after and were much improved so could be a good thing we have the first date of the Euro trek here. I'll likely give them one last hurrah anyhow.

    As said 3 customer with 3 plus app, there is alternatively their fan presale https://www.slatanicwehrmacht.com/ requires a $20 membership to access but as said it's not gonna be a rapid ticket mover.

    Lads, i've seen Slayer a few times in the last 4-5 years and they are (still) an amazing live band. Maybe not the same intensity as 10+ years ago but still great in my mind.

    My only regret is never seeing Lombardo play live with them, because while Bostoph is competant, he aint no Dave and that would certainly add to the experience in my mind.

    Got 2 in block F in the 3 presale along with a pair of Alphine Ear plugs for €147.65

    Should be a good gig, only seen Metallica out of the big 4. Be nice to get Slayer and Anthrax off the list
