I love Testament. Back in the late 80's early 90's I got to see them a lot living in NY. Havent seen them in so long. I would love to see them . Maybe when they come out with a new album they will do some kind of bigger US tour.
Actually with Barker they sounded great. He was in excellent form throughout the show. What I am unclear on -- and there may be an error in my prior post -- is if Barker actually joined the band full-time or if he joined just for this tour.
I believe its just for the tour. But not totally sure about it. At the Houston show, Chuck Billy did say that they are working on a new album and it will be completed by the end of the year! They were awesome last night at the Houston show and the crowd response was serious business. I had to back up a bit to stay out of the path of destruction (the pit). It was getting out of hand... haha....
