Concerts

Man I need to goto a show. I've got Slayer coming up, thanks to Marcus. Am I as excited as I should be about seeing them? Not really. I'm not as into Slayer as I once was. Especially when I found out that Tom Araya is a hardcore Catholic. I really don't have anything against this, I understand that the Tom Araya the person is different from Tom Araya the performer. For me though Slayer stood as a force of opposition to institution ssuch as the Catholic Church and the members at least followed the deep down meaning of their songs. So, my question is how can you reconcile this force of opposition and individualism with a group that is about unquestioning and conformity?

Not only do I now have this new issue with Slayer, I'm also not as angry with the world as I once was. Slayer was one of the bands that helped me to get rid of this and express my angry is a healthy way. Maybe I've just out grown them?

I think what I need is for Opeth, Nevermore, InFlames, Tool, or Iron Maiden to go on tour. Hell maybe Iron Maiden is touring. I wouldn't know, life gets in the way of life and I no longer have the time to keep up with the bands I love. Being an adult sucks ass.
