Get ready, Detroit!!!!
Slayer returns to the
Motor City Saturday, November 16, 2013 at The Fillmore in Detroit. Rumor has it Slayer will perform an "Old
School Slayer" set on all North American tour dates. This is just what diehard Slayer fans need to
hear considering the replacement of two of the key band members after Jeff
Hanneman's unfortunate and untimely death and Dave Lombardo being forced out of
the band in early 2013.
Can Gary Holt (former Exodus guitarist) and Paul
Bostaph (former Exodus and Testament drummer) deliver? Reviews have been
positive since the kickoff of their tour in Las Vegas October 25th.
We shall
see.

SLAYER WILL PERFORM
"OLD SCHOOL SLAYER NIGHT" SET
ON ALL NORTH AMERICAN
TOUR DATES
"We're having such a great
time rehearsing this 'Old School' set, we've decided to play it on every one of
our upcoming tour dates," announced Slayer's Kerry King.
Holed up in Las Vegas rehearsing for their five-week North American tour
that kicks off at The Joint at Hard Rock Hotel & Casino tomorrow, Slayer -
vocalist/bassist Araya, guitarist Kerry King, drummer Paul Bostaph, and Gary
Holt, still filling in for fallen founding guitarist Jeff Hanneman - have been
rehearsing many of the band's most classic and fan-favorite songs, all of which
were originally written and released between the band's inception and the 1990
Gold disc Seasons In The Abyss.
Slayer's "Old School Slayer Night" set will include tracks from
1983's Show No Mercy, 1985's Hell Awaits, the
genre-defining and Gold-certified Reign In Blood (1986),
1988's South of Heaven, also certified Gold,
and Seasons.
"The final set list is still coming together," added Araya, "but we're
going to give the fans what amounts to 'decades of aggression.' It's going to
be a great night of music and moshing for everyone."
