SLAYER, EXODUS AND SUICIDAL TENDENCIES TO HIT THE ROAD IN NOVEMBER

The confirmed itinerary is below.

Said Slayer’s Tom Araya, “We are way fucking excited about hitting the road again with Suicidal and Exodus. Fucking intense. See you in the fall.”
Added Mike Muir, Suicidal Tendencies’ vocalist, “Slayer, Suicidal Tendencies and Exodus, for only six shows? They were a blast, but everyone knew that wouldn’t be enough. Now’s your chance to see what everyone else was screaming about. ST definitely can’t wait ’til November to do it all again!”
“This monumental tour is a heavy metal collision of epic proportions,” added Exodus vocalist Steve ‘Zetro’ Souza who has just rejoined the band. “For my first tour back with Exodus, I’m beyond excited to be on the road with my brothers in true thrash metal!

No Dave, no Slayer. Sorry, Kerry!
No offense to Paul Bostaph, because he’s a great drummer, but Dave is irreplaceable. Case and point: Slayer tried several times starting back in the 1980s, when Dave left briefly for the first time, having different drummers and the band never sounded like Slayer without him.
