SLAYER’S DAVE LOMBARDO: THE ONLY DUDE COOL ENOUGH TO WEAR SUN GLASSES INDOORS

Thursday, September 10th, 2009 at 3:34pm by

Seriously: wearing sun glasses indoors is such a douche bag move. It’s the kind of thing that makes me want to pick fights with strangers – I just wanna knock that shit right off their face. What the fuck is wrong with these assholes? You don’t look cool. You look like a twerp.

Of course, I’ll give Dave Lombardo a pass. Why? ‘Cause he just might be the greatest metal drummer of all time. Duh.

So here’s Metal Injection‘s interview with Mr. Lombardo, which took place last month at Mayhem. Enjoy it, and disregard the skinsman’s decision to wear his shades in the middle of a windowless room.

    I’ll wear my sunglasses wherever the fuck I want and I would love to see you try to do anything about it. I’m gonna put them on when I’m inside Walmart later just to piss you off, and I’m gonna do it AT NIGHT MOTHERFUCKER!

    I give people doing video interviews a pass, because those lights can be ridiculously bright. It’s not attractive to be on camera with your eyes watering, looking all crazy and shit. Other than that, generally, yes, give me a break. But then I’m the same about men who wear baseball caps indoors and/or at night. That’s one of the best ways possible to ensure I won’t take you seriously, but I do make exceptions for that, as well.

    Anyway, yeah. Dave Lombardo. Woot.

    I wonder if Lombardo wears his sunglasses at night.

    • Shinaain

      I’m feeling the Corey Hart reference: a douche bag even then, but still kinda hot. I nearly went there myself, but didn’t think anyone here would get it. Pound it.

    I wear my sunglasses indoors to hide how red my stoned eyes are…

    And to look like Dave Lombardo. Slayer AND Fantomas. Fuckin’ A.

      Agreed. I work at a University, and I am stoned all the time. I wear my shades till I can escape to the confines of my office/lab.

        “I work at a University, and I am stoned all the time.”

        Redundant.

        • agentdead

          It’s called a compound sentence.

            What the fuck are you talking about? Don’t reply to me if you don’t understand what I’m saying.

    “twerp” is not used nearly enough anymore.

    is it just me, or does Rob look like Frankenstein’s monster?

    • reezle

      He does a bit – personally, I think its great that Non from Superman II has escaped from his outer-space mirror prison and is getting work as an interviewer.

  • seth

    Larry David said it best. “You know who wears sunglasses indoors? Blind people and assholes.”

  • J-Ho

    It’s not entirely uncommon for me, on a day off, to leave my house and go eat and drink on bar patios from noon until the evening. Then just keep drinking through the night. Most of the time, as the night wears on, I’ll put my sunglasses on (which I took with me when I left the house at around 11 AM and it was fucking bright) because I’m that drunk and I know if I don’t keep them on my head, I’m going to lose them. I’m also fully aware that I look like a douche, but I’m also drunk and happy enough to not give a flying fuck what you think of me.

    Is this an exception…?

  • Smedley
