| What a Shame for other 3 members!!! |

|
| If Dave's side of the story is true then Kerry is, as I've always suspected, a dickhead. |
|
|
|

Well, if what Lombardo is saying is true, I'd also be kinda pissed. |

I know, I'm not blaming Lombardo but the band in general... |

| Shit, one of the few bands I thought would stay strong till the very end. But now with Jeff possibly never returning and Dave getting fired and Tom already having problems with his neck...could this be the downfall of Slayer? I hope not. While I never saw them as musical geniusses, they still are one of the most metal bands out there. |
|
|
|
That. was. harsh. Man, if what he says is true, I'ld be very pissed with Kerry, the guy just seemed to be the "owner" of the band and do whatever he wants with it and really doesn't want to hear some opinions.
What a shame, right before a possibly new album and without Jeff too. |
|
|
|
| Thats bullshit. Slayer is going to crap, Jeff is about to die and now this. RIP Slayer. |

Looks like Dave had a very turmoiled Valentine's Day...
If what he says is true, he did the right thing in trying to propose a new model. And it sounds like if "the management" is actually Kerry King.

Like this is going change to anything...  |

|
| The headline should be," KERRY KING Kicked Off Australian Tour"... Keep him off the tour so he can sit home and not make shit and see how it feels... What a fucking Dick !!! |
|
|
|
| Kerry always been a douchebag |
|
|
|
So he realised just now, after such a long time? Strange, to say the least.
Don't judge Kerry prematurely, listen to both sides first. i'm sure Slayer will issue a statement to address Lombardo's words. |
|
|
|
This reads like some kind of conspiracy involving King embezzling from Slayer.
I wouldn't be surprised knowing how much of an asshole King is. |
|
|
|
This issue isn't actually far off from what Black Sabbath and Bill Ward have had in conjunction to each other. Its best to know both sides before I get sympathy, although I doubt that anything can topple Dave's statement. There's some shocking things in there it seems....  |
|
|
|
You really had a doubt that kerry is a "dickhead"? well, this should clear all of your doubts lol
and i think this is not just a contender but we already have our winner for the "drama of the year" award xD |
|
|
|
Billy Ward ... Black Sabbath ...
Mike Portnoy ... Dream Theater ...
And now ... Dave Lombardo ... SLAYER! ...

He has quit the band a few times and had issues with members before, so I don't think there is any new realization here. If anything, we are all just waiting to see if his claims about the band's finances are true. |
|
|
|
Very sad news I must say.This is an outrage,money is spreading his evil clutches to the thing we love the most.
And Kerry King is an asshole,this band is falling apart.Tom Arraya could do something.This band has very serious problems
but I believe in my heroes they will adapt and overcome and come back from ugly past stronger than all!! |
|
|
|
This is problem with the 'tyrants' in the heavy metal bands,for example I think Metallica would never kick off Lars,
I don't like Metallica but they are unique in that manner.I can imagine the scene:Kerry King blows off Dave,and Tom
Arraya stares with his dumb face and does nothing.They should work this thing together because Dave is original Slayer
and one of the best metall drummers of all time not some session asshole who played five shows in his life. |
|
|
|
| I read elsewhere that Jon Dette was also filling in for Benante on the Soundwave tour as well. Man, two legendary drummers I was looking forward to seeing and now they both aren't coming. As a fan, very bad news. And also as a fan, it's not much fun to hear the band's dirty laundry aired in public about their finances. |
|
|
|
Anyone else reminded a little bit of what happened with Queensryche?
Still, at least this isn't a permanent departure... |
|
|
|
| Kerry king is an asshole, I Hope araya also leave the band and that douchebag alone |

Take it easy. Jeff is fine now. He's probably keeping a low key because he's sick of Kerry's bullshit too. |
|
|
|
| We don't know the whole story yet. But so far, this is sad. This guy is the Buddy Rich of thrash drummers and he's getting kicked out because's he asks too many questions? Pathetic. I hope Metallica fires Lars so Dave can join them, and Lars can play in Slayer, him and Kerry are perfect for eachother. |

It seems to be a pretty different situation from what I know. Bill ward wasn't kicked off, he left on his own and according to Black Sabbath's official statement he can come back whenever he wants. |

| Looks like they cracked open a bottle of Slayer vintage whine.... $money is the real evil here. |

| Everything in this news update is the antithesis of what thrash is all about and reeks of bullshit. Even though Slayer is past their prime this is just shenanigans, pretty sad if you ask me. |

Ether way from the band members to the members outside them, its the floating cycle of money revolving around these peoples decisions where such similar likening outcomes happen. |

This is probably the best comment on this thread. Despite the bad news, this made me smile. |

Indeed... "Mr. Lombardo" - what a joke! |
|
|
|
Typical band argument counter where money is involved. "Yea, Dave Mr. Lombardo is right but we're not going to admit it cuz we want him to look like the asshole here not us so we're gona apologize with some vague statement that doesn't admit he's right but doesn't say that he is wrong either." |
|
|
|
| After long time we heard something from Slayer camp. |
|
|
|
| If I was in a band making the sort of money Slayer are making and the total cut to the band was only 10%, I'd be asking questions as well. This is assuming Lombardo is right in what he's saying. Wonder why he's taken so long to realise what's going on. All this sort of stuff usually takes place behind closed doors and isn't spoken about, so it shows how bad things have become that A.D. Dave has gone public about it. Maybe the 10% cut to the band explains why King has been seeking extra external revenue doing silly alcohol ads for Jagermeister? |

Wow wow wow! Come down! It doesn't matter if Kerry is a big douche-bag, making him suffer Lars's drumming in every rehearsal is an unreasonably harsh! |
