Best moment

based

That happened at the show in Noblesville Indiana too. We had a thunderstorm come down hard before the show and delay it long enough to have to cancel the first act at for the showing here. Even though the meet and greet was expensive, it was worth it that show, because Slayer took care of us and made sure we had bar access to protect against the rain. that normally would have cost extra for us. There were people there that looked like they jumped into a pool before the show started, and I believe it was the first show of the season at that place, so it was a bit chilly.The show was great. I wish the meet and greet was like my other one with I had with Jake E Lee, where I could take a picture with my phone and didn't feel rushed. I don't blame the band for this. They were cool. it's just that it was a lot of waiting. I can understand that the storm we had there made them busy, but it would be cool to have had a quick group meet so we could tell them to play better music in the bar. I didn't think to record a video in the bar so you could hear that they don't play that music on any radio station across the Midwest or on your way to Florida. The music the bar played was nothing you would be drinking to in any bar that I been to either. this was the venues fault for making the time go slower while I waited. All and all it's what I remember when I think of the show I attended. I wish after a few years Slayer gets back together for a few shows. Ozzy and Motley Crue sort of ruined the idea of retirement, but gave some hope that Slayer will be back.

They were just making sure the band didn't come back. Bub bye now..

That's how it was in Raleigh NC on November 3rd first time seeing slayer 3rd concert. First concert with my Ol lady

I've never seen a show, were anyone was gone before they leave the stage

At Riot Fest in IL, it was the same lmfao. Everyone stayed back a good 15 mins as Tom is damn near in tears saying “sorry, we cant play more, they wont let us”

I felt that drop ;(

Ugh that made me sad. I’m just glad I was able to see them

I was there in the front. We thought for a split second he was going to chuck it into the crowd 😂

That moment really hit me in the gut. I wonder if that was planned or something Kerry just did in the moment.

What a momento that would be to have on your wall

True story 🤘🏻

Like a disease, spreading death. Ensuring your destruction….

Their era ended after Divine Intervention

@@patientmental875 there's always someone like you lmao

@@bardoprofano I know truth hurts

@@patientmental875 it would hurt if i gave a fuck, but it's just annoying being like that, is everything ok with your life dude?

@@bardoprofano Yeah im just about to smoke a bowl & finish a song! You?

I'm not crying you're crying!

@@mickeyd8768 Thought I was the only one cutting onions.....

Those damn onions.

No onions here, just a 47 year old bloke bawling cos a band several thousand miles away said goodbye

@@patrickphillips634 No you're not.

Alter! Ja, Mann! 🤣🤣🤣

@Warm Soft Kitty People who make devilish music but are still Christians at the end of the day.

He didn't even know what metal was before he joined slayer.

Well thank God for that. Pun intended.

Well he is Christian so I don't get the irony to be honest.

They wouldn't have retired if that was the case..

Christopher Mott Dave for life!

benindc83 Paul’s not a bad drummer in the slightest

Alex Moreno Dave is on another level and Paul is kinda inconsistent live

@Jimmy Durex - 🤣

Defrezus X SEXODUS

Damn Right!!!

going to see exodus with testament in Ireland soon cant wait pal.Gary is a beast.

Yes, that's a plus. We need some new Exodus to help wash away this loss...

@@jamesennis8837 same man. Gas that it's a seated gig many seats gonna get pushed out of the way in the gaff

Preach . I have ol school satanic slayer shirts! And a a 3 year old and when tom said thanks for hanging, time is precious! I cried my eyes out. Ha, metal! Haha 😄

Great band? No no no, greatest band... Ever.

That would be something that they would tell their grandchildren. "I had no idea that I was going to see the band which basically inspired thousands of bands to push the limits of metal on their final night."

That was me at their Hershey PA show (11/6). My first pit and second concert. Shit was wild

@@Charles_Anthony That's quite an insane experience though.

They played their last two shows in Australia in March at a festival with Anthrax. First time I'd seen any thrash live

@@tobyhall8048 Wow... And now to reveal a truth: I've never seen them.

I was just about to start a comment on how it just doesn't look like Tom wants it to be over. Think about that life change for someone like him.

I know right,powerful stuff

He did this at every show on the farewell tour. I saw them in Ottawa in 2019. My buddy saw them in Laval and at the last Canada show at Heavy Montréal. Emotionnal times indeed

I think he really was done and ready to retire. But the finality of what they were doing on this last tour was something that I think was not lost on Tom.

I think he just wishes jeff was there. as good as it was it was never the same

He's feeling proud right now.

hell awaits

Im cryin right now

this comment made me really sad 😩

Snowflake

Looka Mann That man knows what he’s doing.

I am

We're all fucking crying.

Raining Tears!!! :,(

I am

I am!!!

im 13 and i feel so sad knowing that i wont be able to see them ever again. And im from asia so i couldn't even see other bands .

A greater way to end it would have been with Lombardo. Just sayin'.

@@mauriciohernandezdiaz9825 to be fair the guy there had come in to replace Lombardo twice so also worthy enough also. Both him and Lombardo will definitely be carrying on.

They should've quit 20 years ago. Look at the crowd; a bunch of people standing around like fence posts, holding up their phones.

@@mauriciohernandezdiaz9825Too much bad blood there, besides Lombardo had a gig with Suicidal the same night.

@@springbloom5940 you didn't see the middle of it then because I'm pretty sure that was a pit... 🤣 Normally is with last songs especially when each song typically by them is in succession. You have a mixture of new crowds and the older generation also. Still amazing and Tom's voice has Barely aged

Seasons in the abyss sounds just the ticket.

Sounds fuckin fun

well...

smamison they were right after all

shmookpup in the pits i see, The shark and penguin were hilarious, very sad night in Los Angeles

Only song I recorded. Wanted to join the concert in real, traveling from Germany for this concert... Sorry for bad quality. Watched the concert live, not through my mobile

bunte-ansichten.de did you go both nights ? respect for making the trip out here for slayer 🤘🏻

@@slash3503 both, vegas on Wednesday and 7 concerts before at this tour. Best holidays of my life

bunte-ansichten.de thank you for posting this

keefriff99 yes, They are not friends. Good To see....

Look at Kerry, he seems like he really doesnt care, he threw the picks and then he left the stage like it was just another show

Mikhail 0. It is for him he’s not retiring

@@-----------g- Because Kerry King is a douche.

Makes me very sad since I just discovered them last year

The security guard was a dick. There was no reason for him not to pick it up & hand it to the guy.

i did the same on saxon show... he took my hand and i wrenched it, took pick from the floor and i let the guards escort me to entrance xD even the dude who took my place in 1st row let me there again... Great memories!

@Allan Franzner Not always. In Glasgow last year Gary threw a pick at my son on the barrier at the end of the show. (We'd met him at a clinic the night before then did the Slayer M&G beforehand). Pick fell short of the barrier. Gary screams at security guard to give it to my son. Rest of front row screams to give it to my son. I scream to give it to my son. S Guard picks it up and checks it's the right kid and hands it over. We give Gary a big chest thump, he does the same back, everyone smiles :)

@Allan Franzner It was a great 24 hours. My son got up and jammed on Frankie's bass at the clinic too while Gary stood and watched. I caught 2 KFK picks right from his hand during the show too. Just a great time - gonna miss these guys.

I was on first Slayer gig in Poland. My son saw Slayer for the first time a year ago and catch pick from Gary . At Download 2019 he saw last Slayer gig in UK. Parenthood done right \m/

I've lost it when Kerry dropped the chains and walked away...

gay

@Joseph Nickell i know

Was there Aswell. Never seen so many tears at a slayer show. Was a great end

@@moralcompass3252 Cool, this makes Tom Araya extremely gay because he was crying at the end of both LA shows. But we all know he's not gay. So what now? It's almost like crying doesn't have anything to do with one's sexuality... You feel redpilled already?

Same bro I'm still crying

I cried too bro don’t worry

When Kerry drops his chain that did it for me

Tom & Gary hugging that did it for me. I failed too.

Martinez Harvey See ya out there, my brother ✊🏽

Pleasure serving with you brother

Hell yes!

Cheers. What a ride.

I’ll see you brother. May slayer forever reign supreme.

Same👍

I know right? LOL:D

I bought a ticket to see Slayer and they cancelled to go play raining blood on jimmy Fallon :'(

Reunion tour 2022.

You got to take a HUGE " L" there. Fuck me, they were together for nearly 40 years. Statistically, you should have seen them by ACCIDENT during that time 🤣🤘

@@bricktop. : People have jobs and shit. Besides, we're talking about Slayer here. Every show they do gets sold out. It happens to lesser known bands like Kalmah. Been listening to them for fifteen years, their first Los Angeles concert was in April. Sold out in like a fucking day. Luckily they came back to California and I would've missed them again since they sold out LA again on the twenty ninth. Luckily, I got tickets to see them in San Diego and drove almost a hundred miles to enjoy their first concert in San Diego. The moral of my story is that all concerts take a bit of effort to attend. That is, unless you're like my mom who won tickets to see Slayer and a few other bands during the 80's. I have no idea what radio station she called into, but she got free tickets to the show that night over thirty years ago. Meanwhile, I never got to see them live. Life is funny like that.

I've seen them 11 times.

Last nights final show was my 15th time seeing them. It was sure surreal. Just wished they played longer. 1hr, 40 min isnt enough. I seen them play 2 hrs many times.

Lucky. I only got to see them 4 times in my lifetime. But i also got to see Motorhead once.

I saw them once. Providence, RI Lupos Heartbreak hotel in 2002? Maybe 2003 and it was actually bad. Turned me off from Slayer for a long while. I like the music but I have to admit I am not amongst those crying.

@@l04d83 Never saw Motorhead, but I did meet Lemmy in Vegas and he did act like a dick. Turned me off Motorhead for a while, but they are a good band. Not gonna let a bad experience sour me.

MrLA75 he’s only nice to chicks I bet

Ειμουν μεσα φιλε,γραφτηκε ιστορια στο λαιβ στο Οακα

Stuttgart was the last show in the European tour. I was there.

I was also in Barcelona (and Madrid one day before). It was my beginning of this farewell. Epic Concert (and city).

@@VideoGameMusicFan13 Hey, same, but the sound in the Schlayerhalle was pretty bad.

@@VideoGameMusicFan13 -Wednesday July 10th, Bucharest, Romania -Thursday July 11th, Sofia, Bulgaria -Saturday July 13th, Athens, Greece -Wednesday July 31st, Wacken -Saturday August 3rd, Stuttgart, Germany Between July 13th and 31st they didn't play a show anywhere else which basically means they just came back in Europe for two shows. That's what I meant when I said their final stop of their european tour. Because of the number of days between their show in Athens and Wacken.

Agreed. This should be submitted to some kind of libraby. The Congressional Library of history preservation.

I think we all needed to see it

I was there... And I still needed this video!

Same!

87 for me. Seen them in 90, and 94.

Hail Satan!

Metal*

@@thebeardedhamster1195 THRASH METAL*

@@iamconnortheandroidsentbyc2859 my bad thrash metal

@@thebeardedhamster1195 thank you for this correction

They have been playing the same songs live for 30 years

@@patientmental875 it's a shame the set list hasn't been very varied trough the years but the quality of Tom's voice is astonishing

No. I disagree strongly. I saw 'em in 91/92 when they were gods. Saw 'em again around 2005 and they sucked, they really did. It was awful.

@@patientmental875 not really you must watch shows that have the same setlist. If you count the god hate us all tour and all of that then you wouldn't say that

@Gop it seems that you're the one who lacks ears, kid

dude they just left

They'll be back

Is the best band always not was

They should stay retired. Time for new gods.

@Lightbringer I love old Sepultura!

I was shocked about that gesture.... How difficult could it be just to finish on top? Damn...

SteelSkin667 no, it was for the video screens. It wasnt professionally filmed

Yeah prob for venue screens, but maybe the did a documentary or movie for the last tour or some sort of video that’s gonna come out 🤷🏻‍♂️ but it’s slayer so maybe not

Most of it was for the video screens but they also were recording a documentary type thing... A very proffesional camera setup was going through the crowd on the first night interviewing fans... so that will be a something somewhere... unless it was just for the band to watch. Pretty cool either way.

Same. I really wanted to see them live too, but they sold out the shows so fast. Was unbelievable.

Yeah

@@Charles_Anthony Me too. I remember they were playing a bar in New Haven, CT and my bud tried to get tickets. Sold out in minutes. Reign In Blood tour.

Same...I've seen alot of great bands but Slayer slipped through my fingers...

That was a hard part to see when they came to my city. I've read that he's wanted to retire for some time but I imagine it's something remarkable to leave behind.

He did that every night on this tour basically.

@@keefriff99 : Can you blame him?

He cried walking off the stage when I saw them

In Asheville he made direct eye contact with my younger brother when I picked him up on my shoulders. He said he got chills when it happened

@Jesus Christ its okay, my son...I forgive you

@Jesus Christ no. I forgive you.

Me too..especially when Jeff and Dave were around.

12:23

Nahh this is where demons cry bloody tears

Women* Men*

stupid comment

2 more years to go!

I think they’re DONE done to be honest. I think Tom’s just happy to be spending more time with his family.

@@mitchvechart7164 It'll depend on his financial situation I guess. It's why Motley Crue are back together despite Vince Neil sounding like a cat being castrated nowadays.

@@mitchvechart7164 They WILL be back.

Well Kerry King himself thinks the retirement thing is bullshit. So his hats in the ring. I can't remember which article it was from? But it's out there and it's recent
