It's easier to be hardcore and fast when you're young. Trust me. I'm not young anymore. Einstein was young when he blew the world open with relativity. So was Hawking with the black hole stuff. Hendrix, Joplin, Kobain, Morrison, etc. System of a Down's first two albums. U2's Sunday Bloody Sunday. NIN at Woodstock 1994. Jaedong, Bisu, and Flash were young when they revolutionized Starcraft. George Lucas before the bullshit in the 90s. The guys who stormed the beaches at Normandy. The Lost Generation of the First World War. ISIS recruits. All young as fuck. But at least the Beatles got more hardcore as they matured.

m169marroquin Great point man, that is how it is, even to this day. All the bands they opened for were watching from the bar like, "fuuuuuckkk", these guys are goood!" When then were no name's, just a band from SoCal, thrashing hard and playing tight. Tightness is a well respected talent developed through consistent blood, sweat, whiskey and rigorous hours of practicing, while balancing your own personal life (work, relationships, and substance abuse). Very beautiful. In the right cities and scenes this "true"art, true passion, real people, and fucking amazing musicianship and showmanship, STILL exists... And it is all in front of your eyes haha

When I noticed "Blitzkrieg" in the set-list, I thought it would be a cover of the NWOBHM classic. It turned out to be the "Final Command" song, so I guess "Blitzkrieg" was the original pre-Show No Mercy title.

Maybe, this was just a dry crowd. The mosh pit was prevalent in the late 70s with the punk scene, and Bad Brains had popularized and encouraged it in 1981, when lead singer H.R. had demanded the crowd to “mash”, pronounced mosh because of his Jamaican accent being misunderstood by fans.

I remember being at Santa Fe speedway outside of Chicago (gone now) around this time and there was this kid in the stands wearing a Slayer shirt... I asked him about the band, he said he's never heard anything like it, I had to check it out etc... I went out and picked up the "live undead" cassette tape at a local record store and it changed my whole perspective of music... Fast forward to around 2003 I'm at a Slayer show (early) in Chicago and actually spot Tom Araya standing out back while the Roadies were unloading equipment ... Very cool, down to earth guy that took the time to talk to us.
