There are 2 bands out of that mess that I might like to see and one of them I've seen in concert before. Like Amok said I would have to sit through a bevy of shite bands just to get to them, no thanks.

It's not even going through Philly. It's coming through DC though.

If it's not too expensive I might go. I need to see Slayer at least once in my life.

Im going to see Slayer regardless as im sure you all assumed. Id prefer the small club setting as well. But this is a chance for me to see Corpse, behemoth and Slayer all on the same stage and I shall not pass it up!

Man what a change up from last years "watered down" tour with Slipknot and Disturbed lol.

It is a crime against life to never see Slayer live.

Slayer, Corpse, Behemoth and Black Dahlia on one tour is still great despite the other bands. And even at that, I bet Manson puts on a pretty good show. I've always kind thought a Manson show would be great if I thought his music did.t suck. I've seen BFMV like twice now and let me say, with the amount of boos that get rained down on them, you'd be surprised they still exist.

I'm indifferent towards ATR, Trivium, and God Forbid for the most part and Whitechapel is really fucking boring live.

Still, I think the big 4 I'd wanna see make up for it. Too bad they completely ignored the biggest city in the country and went to fucking Scranton instead

honestly, i saw slayer live once so far...not all that impressed.....bored the fucking shit out of me actualy. granted, i could have caught them on an off day, but holy god was it dull
It's just like the story of the grasshopper and the octopus. All year long the grasshopper kept burying acorns for winter while the octopus mooched off his girlfriend and watched TV. But then the winter came and the grasshopper died and the octopus ate all his acorns and also he got a racecar. Is any of this getting through to you?

ya, the show i went to, they didn't do anything. they came out, planted their feet, and didn't move 1 inch the whole show. it was like the were robots programmed to play the songs. didn't say anything to the crowd, just came out, played, and then left. it was just bad. not to mention the sound was awful. but thats not THEIR fault, it's their sound guys
