Slayer members comment on their US concert.
Guitarist Kerry King two shows, and those shows affected me like playing at the 'Big Four' shows. When we played our first show last year in Chicago, I imagined it would be great for the fans; maybe there were some people who had never seen us play before, but the reaction was completely overwhelming. However, the fans reacted to us as I would expect them to react to the biggest band on the planet. It was incredible.”
“So, for the show in Hershey, we’re going to do a Slayer set, we’ll have all our great fire effects (…). This will be the first time we’re playing with Power Trip and Knocked Loose, but I’m quite aware of them from word of mouth and listening to their music. So, I’m looking forward to seeing them live.”
Tom Araya , bassist and vocalist of Slayer, also commented on the show in the United States. According to the Chilean, "it will be a unique night" and fans should be there, otherwise "you'll be dead, in jail, or a coward."
