Ah yes. Unsure how I overlooked Djokovic beating him in 2015. Soderlint is the one I remember.

Went to see Slayer/LoG/Anthrax/Behemoth/Testament yesterday. Anthrax sounded much better live than I expected.

Nice. I swore off seeing Slayer again since Jeff died, although I'm thinking about making an exception for this. I was hoping they'd tour through the Balkans because I haven't been there yet and could pick up good tickets for cheaper than the price of greens in the US, but that's not the case. I might go to the show in Łódź if they don't add a second European leg for 2019 (which they might). Would work out well because Poland is pretty cool and polish girl lives there.

Assuming they stick with this being the final tour seems like the thing to do. I saw Slayer/LoG last year so I hadn't intended on this year but figured I sort of ought to. I never cared for Slayer before but after seeing them twice the old albums are starting to click.

You could use it as an excuse to make a trip to Europe. At least from the East Coast, flights to and from Europe in the off-season bought months in advance (earlier the better) aren't half bad. I flew round trip to Berlin a couple of years back for about $400 by booking round trip flights from NYC to Copenhagen through Icelandair and Copenhagen to Berlin from the now-defunct Air Berlin, and cheaper is definitely possible because that was only two months in-advance.

Eh... I like Slayer a lot, but not quite enough for that much money and effort.
The biggest trip I've ever made just to see one show was Colorado for Ween two years ago, their first show after being "retired" for ~5 years. Ween is easily one of my top 20 artists though, Slayer's more like #100.

Oh, I totally wouldn't dump that much into just a Slayer show either. I meant more like a regular trip where you visit a few cities and happen to go to a concert in one of them.

Slayer still puts on a pretty good show. I mean, they're not in basements anymore, but you can overlook that.

I'd rather see a Slayer cover band in someone's basement TBH, but from what I can tell Slayer live is fine. Just like everyone other 80s trash band that puts on a show in 2018.
Leave thrash metal to 21 year olds and people that love 30 packs of beer.

I'm waiting for the ex to show up at my friends place. I told her we needed to talk, Im gonna tell her I want the apartment.
You probably used to also. I mean half your post count could be counted as evidence.

Yoda has always been one of the most pretentious people on this forum, it's just his following of white trash chic that obscures it a bit.
