    Yeah, not sure about that one. I work in the industry and sometimes these are last minute changes that no one gets told about. That or the host is worried about liability and will straight up cancel the show. Slayer is not as big as they once were, they’re in much less of a position to turn down gigs.

    I remember my own company blacklisted slipknot after they kept throwing drumsticks into the crowd and ended up hitting someone or another’s girlfriend in the face. Our company literally turned the lights off and stopped the show.

    That’s not what got them blacklisted though. The lead guy got pissed and decided to get blackout drunk and then piss in one of the cases containing stage lights
