Haha I like a handful of Slayer songs, 5 or 6 at most.
God, that Slipknot video gives me shivers up my spine, that singalong was CRAZY. I could hear every single person around me screaming the words so loudly, it was amazing.
I seem to be the only person who was there who didn't think Slipknot were THAT amazing. They were good I guess (although I'm not much of a fan of their music), but I don't see why people were saying it was a truly legendary performance.
That one song sealed the deal for me at Download, I saw them in 2008 and I was like 'oh...' it wasn't fantastic, but then I really loved their Download performance. Their newest album isn't great I'll give you that, but I've always been a fan & I suppose I always will be!
Amazing amazing time. I wish there was video footage of me decking it in the middle, there's a video somewhere where I stumble out the side of it at the end, it's good times haha.
I say "man-da-tor-ee" too, but people over here do say "man-di-tree" as well. I think it's just different ways of pronouncing it really. Different accents could be a factor in the word's pronunciation as well.
Anyway, both are right in my eyes! Or ears, as the case may be...
