I have been to a few concerts like 3 Doors Down, Hinder, Staind, and the Mayhem Fest of '09 ('10 lineup SUCKED)
This was definitely one I will remember! A lineup like Testament, Megadeth, and Slayer, what could go wrong? Only flaw I know of is that after 4 of Slayer's songs, they all sounded the same.
First was Testament. Not too much of a fan of them, I only know one of there songs, "Into The Pit" and they played it. The "Pit" in Camden's Susquehanna Bank Center was definitely rolling good with that on.
Nothing too much to say about them. They were alright.
Between bands, there is a 20-30 minute interval to get ready. My dad and I got some food drinks and all. Where ever you, no matter what, you will hear that one guy yell "SLAYERRRR!!!!" and have rest of the damn lobby screaming "SLAYERRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!" It was quite funny! It was also like that at Mayhem last year.
After the break, Megadeth is up. The opening was so awesome, and so damn true. It was called "Shut Up Be Happy" I will have the lyrics in the spoiler...
We interrupt this program with a special bulletin:

Megadeth fucking tore it up! Hangar 18, Holy Wars, Eye of the Tornado, and my favorite was the encore... "Peace Sells" We all sang along with Dave Mustaine, and how truthful he is. He said
"I am not one of those mother fuckers that say "Oh, you guys are the best" I will fucking say if you guys fucking deserve it, and you know what, you deserve it! Now, heres a song about grinding someones fucking head into a grinder, dont know whether thats legal or not, but I dont give a fuck!"
Hes a boss
After that, we had the 20-30 minute time interval. This is now when EVERYBODY buy the booze and the weed comes out.
The time everybody waited for. SLAYER. I am not too much of a fan, I only like a few songs (Seasons of the Abyss, Raining Blood, South of Heaven) Its just that they sound the same and I want different. But everybody loved them, and it was one hell of a great show. Looking forward to next year.
