    Just saw Slayer in El Paso on May 23. A blistering & brutal 90 minute set, one song right after another, little talk in-between, no filler, no bullshit, all business. The setlist is posted at http://tinyurl.com/nx9mwcc

    The place was packed from the front of the stage to the rear and outside the concert hall as well. Yes it’s no longer the original four, but Gary Holt and Paul Bospath were still the perfect compliment to Tom Araya and Kerry King. We unfortunately lost one and the other decided to get lost. Life moves on. Slayer as a live act is still as strong as ever. Come September we’ll get see how their sound still holds up without Jeff Hanneman’s writing. One thing I would ask is that Araya ditch the gray beard look. It just doesn’t look right.

    I have to share a funny moment from the show last night. There were three stages set up at the venue. The main indoor one was closed off for Slayer, with two other stages outside in the back. The smaller one was for the local bands. Prior to Slayer on the second stage Drowning Pool was warming up the crowd, a rather sizable one too. I’d never seen Drowning Pool before, and I’m not particularly a fan of the “cookie monster” vocals, as Eddie likes to put it, but they were decent. I just happen to be standing near the doors to the main stage by chance. Drowning Pool started at 7PM while Slayer wouldn’t go on stage until 9:30PM. At about 8:30PM with Drowning Pool still playing, the doors to the main stage began to open. All of a sudden this captive audience that Drowning Pool was playing to suddenly made a mass exodus like a runaway stampede towards the main stage! Unfortunately I got caught in the mad rush, and I either had to go along or get run over! While waiting for Slayer to take the stage, I couldn’t help but feel sorry for Drowning Pool, who still played for about another 15 minutes. I don’t see why the venue operators couldn’t had waited for Drowning Pool to finish their set before opening the doors to the main stage. I can only imagine what they felt like playing the final few minutes of their set to a near empty crowd. Then again, I’m pretty sure Drowning Pool knew in advance they weren’t playing to a crowd that was there for them to begin with.

    I’ll be seeing Slayer again July 4 along with King Diamond (first time ever) in Albuquerque for the Mayhem Festival.

    I’m very excited to see this Festival at Harrah’s in Council Bluffs, IA on July 7th, it’s going to be great! Very close to our home as Omaha, NE sits right next to Council Bluffs as well! The venue at Harrah’s is called “Stir Cove” and it’s an open air venue behind Harrah’s with tons of Beer Vendors, Food Vendors, and plenty of porta-potties, ha! The wife go to tons of shows there, great place!

    Obviously heading there to see the Top 3…Slayer, King Diamond, and Hellyeah. But also excited to see the others too as they’re all new to me, except for Devil Wears Prada.

    Hoping for good weather on July 7th…Cheers!…\^^/
