Fuck, 49 is way too young.

Will be listening to a lot of Slayer over the next few days.

 

Only really got into Slayer a few months ago when I saw them at Mayhem Fest, but they're a great band. Jeff was always my favorite guitarist in the band too. I remember first hearing the news, and going to tell my brother, who's a pretty big fan of them.

RIP Jeff!
