Tales from the pit
I saw Slayer in 2009, on the Mayhem festival. It started out with me & my guitarist at the time. We were to save up money to get seat tickets a few months before the show in West Palm Beach Florida. Well the night before the concert he tells me after we get done jamming out that he can't make the show. So I demand my money back from him..(i gave him money to stash so i didn't spend it) He tells me "it's at the bank". I offer a ride to get money, he refuses. He promises to have it the next morning, the day of the show. in less than 12 hours I had to arrange a ride to south florida from central florida. I managed to arrange a ride. But it was only a ride to the show. No ride back to home. So the morning came and I got my money from the prick. I rocked out at the show, which you can see me on youtube wearing a clown mask in the pits for Cannibal Corpse. At the end of the night, after all the fans left. I was the last fan at the venue. I walked up to the only tour bus in the field, and low and behold; it was Dave Lombardos' tour bus. I was introduced to him by the chicks from the DimeHardware booth. (they knew me from my Dimebag Tat) I ended up chillin with Dave and a couple members of God Forbid......After that I got a ride home from my dad who wasn't too happy driving 88 minutes south. But after I told him of who I ended up hangin with, he lighted up. That was the best concert I've ever attended.....thanks for reading. Peace
