The what's going on in Thrash thread

Yeah it's been said by Eric and others before lol. But I am glad to see little articles with Eric popping up. He should be in the news more. I'll take this over much of what we get any day.
Personally though. I like Gene better when he's not exactly like a drum machine. Meaning I think he should be allowed to be more spontaneous. It sounds like he has that with the new album.

I think the same about Gene and his drumming. I hope when it comes to Dark Angel he really lets fly.

**COVID-19 OFFICIAL STATEMENT**

As many of you already know, after returning from the BAY STRIKES BACK over Europe Tour last week, some of us in TESTAMENT have been feeling unwell and have made the decision along with our Doctors to be tested for the COVID-19 novel coronavirus. As of yesterday morning, Chuck and Tiffany Billy’s tests have come back positive as well as some crew members.

We wanted to reach out to everyone who has been supporting us and expressing concern to inform you that we are doing what’s right, and what’s safe, and have all been quarantining ourselves since our return home; since before we were even tested. We are of course concerned for our families, our friends, our crew, our fellow musicians, and our fans. We’ve reached out to support our fellow Bay Area Bands who are also being proactive in their own camps, staying quarantined and safe, and will speak on their individual situations if and when they are ready to.

At this moment we are currently focused on staying safe and quarantined, resting, getting ourselves back to health, and of course, sending well wishes, prayers, and positive energy towards our friends who are also sick. We also want to send well wishes to all of our fans and supporters in this time of crisis. We’re taking all the necessary steps to stay safe at home and we ask our friends and fans to do the same. Please take care of each other, and stay healthy so we can continue to thrash in the not so distant future!

-TESTAMENT
Oh fucking god damnit!!!!! I didn't know anyone of them were feeling sick.

Realistically it's not a surprise, Will's undisclosed ailment, several members of the DA crew confirmed, Gary confirmed. Given the rate of transfer it really was only a matter of time.

I wish them the best in their recovery but I'm refusing to think the worst for them. The survival rate is high, I know the death figures are rising but so are the survival rates. Chuck and co are fit and healthy I'm sure they will get through this.

I saw them on the last date (march 10 in Brussels) of the European tour before the tour was cancelled and they were really in great shape, from the 8 times i saw them it was definitely the best gig. The new songs are really killer live. I hope they get well soon real quick. Fuck that virus.

From Hatriot: Some of our family members are sick right now....please remain indoors and sheltered in your homes. Thank you to everyone who has sent us messages concerning the people on this tour. We can confidently say Steve “Zetro” Souza is showing no symptoms as of right now. Please keep Will, Gary, Chuck & Tiffany, and the crew in your thoughts! We’ll get past this!

This is also doing the rounds.

Hehe, she's a bit late because stuff is starting to come back onto our supermarket shelves here but on the way back from taking my wife to work out of the blue my eldest started singing

Pasta, Pasta, I can't seem to get no pasta
Pasta, Pasta, at empty shelves I sigh

I don't remember the last time I played Metallica while she was around.

Here's Zetro with an update :headbang:. (Be prepared to hit SKIP on the ads, it's like 4 mins)



Must watch later.

Man, the fucking horseshit that been sprouted on Blabber and other sites about how Chuck will cope with this illness because of his previous cancer and his vaping is unbelievable.

Lol, the vaping part was so dumb I stopped reading. Morons.

Yeah I stopped reading pretty quick. There is not even any solid evidence to suggest his cancer puts him at any higher risk of this than the standard flu, but that dickheads know better and love to tell people.
