metal as fuck

so converge and mastodon are on tour together right now. fucking a, right? maybe you didn't know this about me, but i've been trying to see converge since i was like 16. and mastodon is just sweet metal icing on the already metal-est of cakes.

i found out a good while ago that they were playing a show at the 930 club, on feb. 17. sounded promising, but it's a saturday and i never don't work saturday night, not to mention the hunter st. boys are having their much hyped cocktail party sequel that night. it just didn't seem to really be in the cards. i sighed that familiar sigh of disappointment i've been practicing for 6 years and went back to distracting myself with thoughts of the explosions in the sky show in march.

then last night, i received some news. apparently, they're playing the next night--sunday night, my night off--at the norva. a bit of a drive, but another of my friends has already said he'd do it so i'm all about shots of whisky in the backseat to norfolk. however, it only gets better. someone else was recently added to the lineup. who could this be?

mother. fucking. slayer.

remember when i said that thing about the metal icing on the metal-est of cakes? well this is like, fucking, metal jimmies all over that shit, and when you eat this cake you taste only destruction and then bleed from yr eyes. holy shit i am pumped. fucking SLAYER dude!
