Slayer and Slash at the same time, lame.

Apparently there's murmurs (on the soundwave forum) that they may swap Slash's timeslot with the band before him to avoid the Slayer clash, which is great, until you realise it brings Slash into a direct clash with Dimmu Borgir...

Having seen Slayer twice and given there's even an overlap with the original timetable so as it stands I could still catch the last 20 mins of Slayer anyway, this change would bring about a far worse clash for me.

Slash clashing with Dimmu, sounds like a good time to have a beer/wank/sleep.

I'll never run out of bands to shit on, because the world is filled with horrible music, which I am thankful for.

ON the Soundwave forum today.

Since Soundwave festival announced back in September last year that they would be moving from the Steel Blue Oval in Bassendean to avoid a clash with the Western Australian Football League preseason training, there has been much speculation, and concern, about the location of the Perth leg of the festival.

Well, we can finally confirm that the festival will be held at the Claremont Showgrounds ? the same venue that hosted the Big Day Out over the weekend.

Jeff Hanneman, guitarist and founding member of SLAYER, was hospitalized late last month where he underwent emergency surgery on his right arm after contracting a serious infection, according to his bandmates Kerry King, Tom Araya and Dave Lombardo.

While Hanneman's doctors were not able to definitively identify the infection's origin, they diagnosed necrotizing fasciitis, and indicated it likely was rooted in a spider bite. The guitarist is now recuperating at home, has already begun the process of subsequent medical procedures including skin grafts, and is expected to make a full recovery.

In light of this situation and SLAYER's upcoming participation in the Australian Soundwave Festival tour that is set to kick off on February 26, the band has made the tough decision to play the dates without Hanneman, and will bring on a guest guitarist to fill in for him until such time as he has fully recuperated and is ready to return to the lineup. The band will announce details about the guest guitarist shortly.

"Jeff is our brother, we've all been friends and together as a band for almost 30 years," said Araya, "so we just want him to completely recover as soon as possible."

"After everything that happened last year," King added, "we all agreed that we just can't let our fans down again," referring to Araya's severe back and neck pain that prompted his January 2010 surgery, unfortunately leading to the band's postponement or cancellation of numerous shows in 2009 and 2010. "Jeff is totally on board with this decision, so we will tour as planned. At this point, we can't pinpoint exactly what day he'll be back, but he'll be back as soon as he possibly can. And we can't wait for Jeff to get better and get his ass back on the road."

According to WebMD, necrotizing fasciitis is an infection caused by bacteria. It can destroy skin, fat, and the tissue covering the muscles. The disease sometimes is called "flesh-eating" bacteria. When it occurs on the genitals, it is called Fournier gangrene.

holy shit, he better be back before Perth. I wonder who the guest will be... Scott Ian perhaps?

HeavyMetalMerchant · « **Reply #98 on:** February 13, 2011, 08:47:00 PM »

Yeah Scott Ian, or Andreas Kisser SEPULTURA, Gary Holt EXODUS, Jeff Waters ANNIHILATOR, Willie LAMB OF GOD, Phil Demmel MACHINE HEAD any of these cats would be cool filling in for some SLAYER shows.. or maybe Dave Mustaine can return the favor as Kerry once played in MEGADETH back in the day..
