| _________________________________ [Aug 2,2010 5:02pm - BrianDBB ""] Saw Testament in Montreal last weekend and it RULED. But yes, going to this too... managed to get the $10 tix a LOOONG time ago |

| ______________________________________ [Aug 2,2010 5:05pm - boblovesmusic ""] ha, I got a wedding to go to this weekend. Oh well! |
| _______________________________________ [Aug 2,2010 5:08pm - AndrewBastard ""] i might want to kill myself for not getting 8 dollar tix when they were still available. I cant afford 100 for 2 tickets...although Rust in Peace live is worth it. |
| ______________________________________ [Aug 2,2010 5:15pm - boblovesmusic ""] I saw Megadeth play with Heaven and Hell in Albany, back in 2007 (?) and it ruled! I was pretty close to the front too, I could see Mustaine's eyes! It was awesome! |
| _______________________________________ [Aug 2,2010 5:32pm - AndrewBastard ""] seen 'deth twice now but they only ever really did holy wars as an encore...im a RiP junky and must see it in is entirety. |
| __________________________________________ [Aug 2,2010 5:35pm - FuckIsMySignature ""] only time i saw megadeth was for free at the centrum like 6 or 7 years ago. waaf gave away a bunch of tix and i got to meet the band. my buddy was wearing an "AlcoholicA" tshirt which pissed off dave - this was hilarious. |

| __________________________________ [Aug 2,2010 9:34pm - LPCustom ""] Got the "$8" tickets ($20, which still isn't bad obviously) - Megadeth/Testament are good live and pretty excited to see Slayer once. Overall I was more excited for this when it was supposed to happen in February but it should still be great. |
| ____________________________________________ [Aug 2,2010 10:35pm - substitutecreature ""] Buyin tix friday and taken my younger bro. Did anyone else hear that testament is performing all of the legacy? |

| ___________________________________________ [Aug 14,2010 2:16pm - FuckIsMySignature ""] fuck that i'll wander over after 6. who the hell wants to stand around for an hour and a half. |
| ______________________________________ [Aug 14,2010 6:51pm - the_reverend ""] Standing in the pit waiting for testament. |
| _______________________________________ [Aug 14,2010 6:54pm - goatcatabisk ""] I'm interviewing Testament in CT on Monday. Got my prick out already. |
| ______________________________________ [Aug 14,2010 7:20pm - the_reverend ""] The GA people weren't let in until after testament was starteed. The place was practically empty for testament. Also, the sound for testament was NOTHING but vocals. I was in there for the first 3 songs and then had to leave during practice what you preach. Practice what you accapella! |
| ______________________________________ [Aug 14,2010 7:25pm - the_reverend ""] After the 5th song, they found the down knob on the vocals. Mucbh better now. |
| _______________________________________ [Aug 14,2010 8:17pm - aaron_michael ""] Hi Aaron. I see you. FIMS lost his phone. |
| ______________________________________ [Aug 14,2010 8:36pm - the_reverend ""] of course he did. Megadeth sounds awesome so far. They are loving the green lazers. |
| _______________________________________ [Aug 14,2010 8:41pm - nekronautnli ""] My girlfriend got a free ticket from a friend of ours. I'm at work. FUCKING LAME. |
| ______________________________________ [Aug 14,2010 9:05pm - the_reverend ""] I guess if you take out your ear plugs it doesn't sound so good. Megadeth is still ripping it up. I wish that someone paid me in gum though. |
| ______________________________________ [Aug 14,2010 9:12pm - the_reverend ""] I also thought someone said chris broderick left the band. But it was nevermore that he left I guess. |
| _____________________________________ [Aug 14,2010 9:23pm - i_am_not_me ""] Yeah, Broderick left Nevermore last year-ish at latest. |
| ____________________________________________ [Aug 14,2010 9:42pm - substitutecreature ""] Fuck ac/dc |
| _______________________________________ [Aug 14,2010 10:08pm - the_reverend ""] slayer's sort of predictable. I think megadeth's set is so much more dynamic. But slayer's most the same each and every time you see them. Still they are the kings of metal for a reason. Some of the best songs, but I would love them to play different songs right at the beginning (since I only get 3 songs). I did sit in the back of the arena and watch a couple songs. They also paused between EVERY SINGLE song. Never noticed that before. Did anyone away from the stage hear kerry king's chains? that's all I could hear up at the stage. Even when he was 1/2 way across the stage. |

I wish that someone paid me in gum though. that's what everyone else was saying. glad I brought my plugs. Megadeth kicked ass. Slayer was good, too. Missed most of testament in that long ass fucking line. Ghey. |

| ___________________________________ [Aug 15,2010 1:38am - LPCustom ""] Missed Testament completely, seen 'em twice and am pretty disappointed - but so it goes. |
| __________________________________ [Aug 15,2010 7:00am - sinistas ""] Holy fuck, Megadeth was on last night. |
| ______________________________________ [Aug 15,2010 7:40am - SkinSandwich ""] Damned hair bands and yer music! ~~Shakes fist~~ |
| ______________________________________ [Aug 15,2010 8:43am - the_reverend ""] hair? not kerry king |
| ______________________________________ [Aug 15,2010 9:04am - SkinSandwich ""] I was thinking more like Dave Mustardstain. |
| __________________________________ [Aug 15,2010 9:06am - BrianDBB ""] Gooooood show, everyone and their mother went. Agreed, I think Megadeth stole this one. |
| __________________________________________ [Aug 15,2010 11:12am - Death_Metal_Jim ""] sik fukin show! always. the Fanclub presale $10 seats they gave me sucked balls though. So me and TurboJoe (JoeyUmbrella) commenced Operation 'Floor Sneak'. Success!! |
| ___________________________________________ [Aug 15,2010 11:32am - notorious_d.u.g. ""] So . . . I'm working retarded tax free day in my store yesterday when a big ass tour bus pulls up blocking half of our lot. I don't pay any mind to it and continue my retail suffering. And then there he is, Kerry King shopping for Macbook accessories in my store. Then some tall dude comes up to me and needs help with his laptop. I hook him up with Geek Squad. He ends up being Slayer's tour manager and he gave me 4 tickets to the show! Tax Free Day may be alright. Sick show too. Bummed that this is now the second time I misses Testament this year. What did they play? |
| _________________________________ [Aug 15,2010 11:34am - Kevord ""] I couldn't believe how many people around me said it was their first time seeing Slayer then sat through their entire set. HOW DO YOU SIT DURING RAINING BLOOD! Gay. |

Success!! i tried that myself but ended up getting into several drunken arguments with different employees on the floor. i then proceeded to leave the venue and sneak back in through the backstage area. got to see most of slayer from my own luxury box area next to the stage until 6 or so angry security people had me swiftly removed. tgsongas arena fails hard at metal shows. |
| __________________________________ [Aug 15,2010 1:56pm - Archaeon ""] Kind of wished i went to this. |
| _______________________________ [Aug 15,2010 2:26pm - Pires ""] Floor seats were so worth it. I'm surprised it wasn't GA all around. Usually tsongas shows are always GA. Unless it's been that long since i've been there. |
| _________________________________ [Aug 15,2010 3:07pm - MikeOv ""] Pretty cool to see Ellefson brought back into the fold. Had no idea of his return until they went on. |
| ________________________________________ [Aug 15,2010 4:16pm - AndrewBastard ""] so sore today...my neck is pissed at me. I took off my sweaty Coroner shirt at some bar after the show and it dissapeared... :(...this was the best show ive been to in a long time...we took over a section and absolutely distroyed it. |
| ________________________________ [Aug 15,2010 4:19pm - Kevord ""] I could barely talk after the show from screaming. I was in section X. A bunch of lame people there. What section were you in Andrew? |
| ________________________________________ [Aug 15,2010 4:47pm - AndrewBastard ""] we took over section I although my tickets were for K...me, my GF, the beckwiths, mikeov, tall eric and his GF, audry hell, slar, ichabod Greg, and a few others... I also have no voice and my hair is like dreadlocks from banging for 2 hours. |
| ________________________________ [Aug 15,2010 4:54pm - Kevord ""] Shit, you guys were on the opposite side I was. It would have been cool to sit with people actually into the show. |
| ________________________________________ [Aug 15,2010 6:11pm - AndrewBastard ""] yeah i wish we had hooked up. When we got there we ended up getting pickled at some party bus full of boston folk. It was a legit Crystal Transport bus...pretty rad. |
| ________________________________________ [Aug 15,2010 7:12pm - AndrewBastard ""] i should work for the rev: [img] |

One of my favorite times seeing them. If they played Psycopathy Red, I probably would have moshed into a spontaneous cumbustion |
| _______________________________ [Aug 15,2010 7:57pm - Pires ""] I saw at least 5 people getting chased through the crowd after sneaking down. |

| ________________________________________ [Aug 16,2010 10:40am - aaron_michael ""] anyone who was close to the stage, did you see what happened with Hanneman's guitar? |
| _____________________________________ [Aug 16,2010 12:35pm - bornoffire ""] Yes I was on the bus...about 20 of us...the ride down was great....when we got back after the show the battery was dead or something along those lines and it wouldn't turn over...took 2 hours to get another bus there and the tow people to try and fix it. The Stadium people were pretty annoyed and kept coming back to try and kick us out...everyone was just a drunken wreck by the time we left as there was nothing else left to do but wait and drink. Was worth the money to do it though, 100%. Think I was drunk 3 separate times. |
| ____________________________________________ [Aug 16,2010 12:37pm - FuckIsMySignature ""] yes drunk show was definitely DRUNK. must have sucked so much ass to be working that show. bhaha. |
| __________________________________ [Aug 17,2010 11:02am - oscarct ""] Megadeth as a band sounded great, mustaines voice was fucking shot. SLayer was great |
| _______________________________________ [Aug 19,2010 7:23am - WhiskeyKid666 ""] For a website called return to the pit. There are no pics of the actual mosh pit. Not even the wall of death that went on with Testament |
| ______________________________________ [Aug 19,2010 7:35am - the_reverend ""] I'm only allowed to shoot the first 3 songs and then the camera has to be put away. |

| ______________________________________ [Nov 20,2011 7:26pm - the_reverend ""] Yeah, cause megadeth ruled that night. I'm so glad I didn't see them in the rehab years. Would have sucked. |
| ________________________________ [Nov 20,2011 7:32pm - KEVORD ""] I've seen Megadeth touring for Cryptic Writings and Risk so I've seen shitty Megadeth sets. |
