I think I should rank Slayer's albums from best to worst to make you guys butthurt

Show No Mercy
Haunting the Chapel (I know, not a full length, but too great to ignore)
Hell Awaits
South of Heaven
Reign in Blood
Seasons in the Abyss
World Painted Blood
Divine Intervention
Christ Illusion
God Hates Us All
Undisputed Attitude (still pretty fun if you like punk though)
Diabolus in Lolzica

Shit, am I the only guy here that thinks Slayer was the best that night?

True, a lot of the complaints I listed might not necessarily be Slayer's fault (so I guess my original statement where I said "slayer suck live" was probably a bit overblown), but that didn't really make them detract from my enjoyment any less.

Actually he did sound pretty good for the last few songs, it was mostly through most of SITA that he started sounding bleh. It sounded like he was practically just speaking through Blood Red and Hallowed Point, like a shy girl at karaoke.

Also WPB song vocals sounded like the WPB album... which I think Tom sounds pretty bad on. Honestly I was kinda hoping that the live experience would somehow make me see something I might have been missing about the newer songs, and it definitely didn't do it for me .

For all of you on here who kiss dave mustaine's ass, STOP... he made rust in peace suck!!!!!! After Rust the vibe in the place picked up and the sound was much better, but please stop licking this bitter man's cock. Also Slayer kicked so much ass, give Tom a break he is like 50 and just came off back surgery and still comes out to kick our asses. I love King Diamond but his lazy ass hasn't been out since his back surgery like 4 years ago!!!! And to whoever dissed Kerry King, I dare you to say that to his face, the man looks like he could kick some ass. If you don't like slayer don't go to a slayer show just to bad mouth them after. If you like Megadeth and could care less about slayer you could have left right after their set was over!!!!!! This was the best show I have been to and can't wait for more Slayer in the future.

You make a good point here. I've got a herniated disc in my back from a job where I used to unload trucks. Even with treating it right it's still a pain in the ass to do anything physical for a long time. I even had to take a new job where I didn't do any heavy lifiting at all. I'm not that big of a Slayer fan but I give the man his props for at least going out there and doing the best he can given the circumstances.

-lazily replacing half of the decent solos with stupid noise that just sounded annoying live as opposed to awesome the few times it's done on studio (think Altar of Sacrifice)
-actually fucking up several riffs, i could make a list just like this of times this happened
-being out of sync with each other from time to time.
-kerry king looks like a douche
-did i mention it sounded like shit

Hahaha, oh wow, if that's the case I really have no interest in going considering they barely play any material I am interested in. Seasons isn't bad, certainly better than South of Heaven but a set comprised solely of it, WPB, and their 'hits' doesn't sound good at all.
