Slayer - Exodus Guitarist Filling In On Tour
Last weekend, we brought you the news that Slayer guitarist Jeff Hanneman is recovering from an emergency surgery on his right arm after contracting necrotizing fasciitis (commonly known as flesh-eating disease), possibly caused by a spider bite.
The injury will keep the guitarist sidelined from the band's upcoming live shows in the Australian Soundwave Festival tour, that is set to kick off on February 26.
None other than Exodus guitarist Gary Holt has now stepped in to replace Hanneman on this tour.

Nice, just in time to plunder the land down under. so our marsupial metalstormers can start warming up their pipes for the mandatory "SLAY-ER! SLAY-ER!" chants. Or as they say in Australian, "SLAYER SLAYER SLAYER OI OI OI!!!"

Bad-fucking-ass! ... Not that I'll see any of their shows, but man. Slayer fans are lucky, and Exodus/Slayer fans will be even more excited.

Not who I expected at all, but a very good choice. Too bad I won't be able to see it.
