A few years ago, I ran in a half marathon that had a music theme and there were bands playing along the course. At mile 12, there was this kid, about 12, with just an electric guitar and an amp. He repeatedly played a medley of two riffs, I think they were the only songs he knew, Deep Purple Smoke on the Water and this, and dammit if it didn’t help me finish the race.

Late Slayer... maybe.
Megadeth's rust in peace was also a good choice.

Shit band. Which pains me to say, because the guitarist, Jason “Hook”, is my childhood friend. Very talented guy. It’s weird he found himself in such a band. He’s nothing like the image.

Him and I had a shared love for Ed, Warren DeMartini, Lynch, Sykes, etc.


Was it him or the other one who was hired straight out from being that country chics tour guitarist?
Shania Twain...maybe?

The 80s and 90s bands with a few exceptions pretty much lost their audience once their style of music went out of favor, but the 70s bands are still touring to this day.

Jason’s NOT the founding guitarist, Zoltan, or whatever his name is, the guy with long dreads. Jason has played with everyone from Bulletboys to Vince Neil to Mandy Moore to Alice Cooper to ...

Ok. I just saw the " Hired Gun " documentary about these musicians who just play for whoever needs them.
He happened to hit Jackpot with 5FDP.

Same guy who featured in " Counting cars " show.

Has a woman ever attended a Slayer concert? I understand that most women aren’t as into music, but I wouldn’t want to be in a band and play to nothing but men. The whole purpose of getting into that business is so you get pussy.

Weird chicks attend these kind of concerts. It’s not feminine for a woman to listen to metal. Actually i fucking love metal but never found women who were into it attractive. A lot of them are pigs with painted faces and black outfit. Repulsive.
