Holy HELL I would be SO bummed if this happened in my town. October 5th at The Tabernacle you have Slayer/Anthrax/Death Angel. Already saw Anthrax there with Lamb Of God but would LOVE to see Slayer there. The Tabernacle would be an awesome venue to see them in. Same night though you also have Clutch playing just seven miles away at The Buckhead Theatre. Ughh!!! Would SUCK to have to choose between these two shows.

If I lived there or were still working up there I'd probably have to base my decision on who I've seen or not. I've seen both Anthrax and Clutch, but not Slayer, so I would have to go with them.

I know there are a few Atlanta area MBers who will be having to make this choice. What's it gonna be for y'all?

Slightly off topic, but did you see Anthrax recently? They're playing here in September and I'm trying to decide if it's worth going.

Death Angel


Act III is a phenomenal album. One of the best metal albums of the 90's. Never saw them live; would love to.

would suck even more to live in a crap town where you wouldn't get to see either one.

I picked Slayer but it was before the Clutch show was announced. Would have liked to check out Zakk Sabbath and Kyng at the Clutch show. Also have Periphery at The Masquerade on Aug 5th and Gojira at The Tabernacle on Sept 25th

Personally, I would never choose attending a Clutch show over the chance to see three of the biggest names in thrash together at once.

Not my genre, but Tabernacle always has a far better energy than Buckhead Theater.

Something about how the crowd fits into BT makes it less festive than Tabernacle.

When in doubt, choose the venue.

Was able to catch Slayer at Voodoo in 2014. Was an awesome show.

Edit: To add to this, it was really weird watching Rise Against and Slayer back to back on the same stage
