        There were only 4 "stars" at the show last night. Blake stole the show. Melinda, Jordan, and Lakisha were great at the belting out songs and OK on the rest. The remaining cast was a joke. Haley needs to borrow some of Gina's power but not any of the bad notes. Sanjaya has no pride in being male. Phil should be better considering he went to college for music and it is his day job "?" with the navy. Chris Sligh would be OK if he stuck to "rockish" songs only. The other Chris was a) the energizer bunny b) off-key c) on the stage too much d) given a master class by Blake e) pretty fly for a white guy f) all above except E Answer F PS. Having 10 people ask the audience " Are you having fun San Jose" seems a little desperate. Thanks Collapse

        Awesome, ass-kicking show. People were into it and cool too. I ended up on th pit floor about ten times and always got a hand back up. Best sound (and loud) that I've ever seen at the HP pavillion. If you're on the fence about going to a show, this'll be the one to go to. Collapse

        I've listened to Slayer for nearly 20 yrs and have seen them countless times. I must say they blew the doors off and showed the accompaning bands (Children of Bodum, Mastadon, and Lamb of God) just what complete metal mayhem is all about. The set started off with South of Heaven and went into Silent Scream. War Ensemble and Blood Red followed. Mandatory Suicide, God Hates us All, Season in the Abyss, Chemical Warfare, Dead Skin Mask, Cult, Hell Awaits, Anti-Christ, Raining Blood, Angel of Death rounded out one of the most finely performed and totally hardcore sets I have seen them play since I was 17. Lamb of God was great, but musically they are not as diversified and quite as EVIL as Slayer. Slayer, The Kings of Metal still reign and I expect it to stay that way for years to come. Collapse

        The only bad thing about a show with that many bands is that Slayer doesn't play another 4 or 5 songs. Other than that, they were incredible as always. No better metal band or show on the planet.... Expand

        Terrible acoustics.. couldn't understand a word Chris Martin was singing... He may have even had a voice track. Muddy lows and distorted highs... awful. It was very disappointing to a number of us who are real diehard fans. Had to go home and listen to an album just to reset the enthusiasm. Collapse

        It was so great!!! He was all and more!I really enjoyed the show. Deanna Carter opened and she was pretty good too. Definitely worth all the while. Just wish I was the girl who got to sing with him!
