Once known as Metal City, USA (and still known by that name to a few), San Antonio holds all genres of rock ‘n’ roll close to its heart. Slayer has a special place, though.

Last night at the Freeman felt like church, but for Satan: an unholy gathering for lovers of extreme metal as we said goodbye to a band that we’ve held dear to our corazones for decades.

Farewell dudes, thanks for the memories.

*raises horns*

Hail Satan.
