| _________________________________________ [Apr 8,2008 9:46pm - thegreatspaldino ""] you mean the tour with immortal? |
| __________________________________ [Apr 8,2008 10:06pm - Aegathis ""] yup, i was pretty pissed considering Immortal and Testament were litterally my two favorite bands at the time. Ofcoarse even more pissed shortly after when Immortal announced they were breaking up at the time. |
| ______________________________ [Apr 8,2008 10:07pm - CNV ""] Wowzah... Motorhead at a casino. Born to lose, Live to win. |

| _____________________________________ [Apr 8,2008 11:36pm - I_am_not_me ""] Testament = piss break. The rest = awesome. Sad thing is I used to love Testament. Seeing 'em live just completely killed it for me. |
| ___________________________________ [Apr 8,2008 11:41pm - dreadkill ""] I_am_not_me said:Testament = piss break. The rest = awesome. Sad thing is I used to love Testament. Seeing 'em live just completely killed it for me.if you're talking about that show in southbridge over the summer, they were playing with paul bostaph after only practicing with him once. i'd cut them some slack on that and give them another chance. i'll bet they'll be really awesome live on this tour. |
| _____________________________________ [Apr 9,2008 12:30am - I_am_not_me ""] Bostaph wasn't the only thing wrong with that show. Not by a long shot. |

| _______________________________________ [Apr 9,2008 11:02pm - NuclearWinter ""] Hmmm... I guess the capacity at the Mohegan Sun arena is 9,500. That's less than half the Tweeter Center. |

| ___________________________________ [May 27,2008 5:49pm - dreadkill ""] i think the person meant no motorhead at the palladium show. it's probably just testament headlining an off date on the tour. |
