Droogies!
I was saddened to hear that Tom Araya won't be able to perform tonight, as you know, and that they are going to proceed to Perth to wait for us and the last show here in Australia.
I wanted to be as gracious and considerate of the circumstances as possible, so yesterday I sent an invitation to Kerry King to come up and play a song from back when he played with us in the early days.
I know that it would require him coming here to Adelaide, and that the band has already decided to proceed to Perth, but I sent the invite yesterday, and I was really hoping that we could do something for the fans of Adelaide and so that the Slayer fans could at least see their hero in action; even if it is with us.
There is still several hours before the show, and I would love to see Kerry walk through the doors and say, "alright, let's play Rattlehead!"
However, I think that the time has passed for him to be able to comfortably travel here.
I have my fingers crossed though. :D
Thanks for understanding, and we will make the best of it either way.
