This is funny. I was thinking the same thing as alot of the rest of you. I'll go to see Testament. I'll stay for Megadeth. This means I'll probably have to sit through Slayer before Megadeth. Which means by the time Megadeth comes on I'll be so fucked up I'll hardly remember what happened. But Testament is worth it. HEH. This is funny. I was thinking the same thing as alot of the rest of you.

I’ll go to see Testament.

I’ll stay for Megadeth.

This means I’ll probably have to sit through Slayer before Megadeth.

Which means by the time Megadeth comes on I’ll be so fucked up I’ll hardly
remember what happened.

But Testament is worth it.

I listened to one or two songs before seeing them live, and I expected greatness, but all I got was some dude barking like a dog on stage. His vocals were that bad, to the point where when the he was like "Four more songs!", my friend and I just looked at each other simultaneously and shook our heads. Yeah, Converge was balls.

There isn't a single place in the world where HoF out draw Converge. Cougar Party- Maybe in part to their musical similarity to Mastodon.

Metallica would be a nostalgia thing only. Out of all those three they seem the least concerned with making good music. I would go see Slayer/Megadeth over Metallica ANY day.

Anyhow I was allways turned off by Slayer's "I hate God" schtick but to be completely honest World Painted Blood COMPLETELY turned me around because of the music itself. The music on that album is so fucking awesome. Saying that their only skill is "packaging hatred for God" is ignoring a hell of a lot of musical aptitude. I was the guy saying "Fuck Slayer" not long ago... OK this is DidgeryDo by the way. Anyhow I was allways turned off
