I was there...one of the sickest Slayer shows of all time!💀🗡️
dude - same. I came down to NYC - had a semi connect with Rock hotel from MTL hardcore scene, and - boom Felt Forum, Danzig - then Slayer takes it from sinister to chaos in 40 minutes or so - dipped into some side exit through hockey dressing rooms and eventually back up to street level and horses and NYPD and such - back to Scrap Bar in quiet St. Marks for me! Wot a Nite!!
I was here. Thanks for posting. The only black guy in the crowd. Loved it.
Jamaican Funeral Director music is color blind (or should be)...up the irons!
Jamaican Funeral Director you reminded me of my first time seeing Slayer...GHUS tour...ran into my drummer friend who was black...after he took off some guys talking shit about him... I recall telling them that they had no idea..,dude was a huge metal fan..,slayer, megadeth, corpse, you name it..,they were shocked! Can't judge a book by its cover!!
Lots of black people at the NY show I went to last week, Some drunk asshole loved my shirt and commented how not many Homies are like me,I had to explain to him how we invented all of this rock and roll shit....
thats awesome! when i was a kid one of my best friends who is black was into slayer,SOD,metallica,DRI,Black flag,exploited and introduced me to it as i was still into motley crue,kiss,etc...good times!
Jamaican Funeral Director I see a brave black dude crowd surfing. I bet there were a few ethnicities at the show. Slayer ain't racist, they're satanic
In their prime, Slayer was untouchable. The bluest flame of metal.
I was there. The permanent hearing damage was soooo worth it.
This needs to be preserved for future generations
Its classic
Not polished and fake
This guy may be an amateur, but he caught the Slayer experience on tape with his camera work
I love how Lombardo is banging his head just as much as the guys not behind the kit. Damn, Slayer tore it up back then like no other!
Tom Araya speech to calm the NY misfits he'd just whipped into a frenzy before the encore is hysterical
Tom possess 'em with demons and then attempts to make 'em behave. Lol every time
@@cordellivy3597 bro this comment had me going 🤘
@@cordellivy3597 Demons.. lmfao..
This is why Slayer was banned everywhere. They was banned in my state and they always came back under some bs name and very few people seen them.
Don’t recall any Slayer bans ! They always seems the get gigs in NY.
Wow, that is just crazy. I knew Slayer fans were nuts in the 80's, but Ive never seen that kind of chaos. Incredible.
Trulysarcastic44 half the fun was watching the crowd, for real. we always pnked out and sat lower balcony center
This tour was in fucking sano. Saw them in home town Los Angeles at the beginning of it, and at the Hollywood Palladium towards the end of the tour. The pits were a near death situation, for real.
I was at this show! Then I saw them 2 months later at L'amour in Brooklyn. Picture that insanity in a small/medium sized club!! SLAYER!!! \m/
Trulysarcastic44 Wish I could’ve been around in the 80’s. We don’t get shows like this today. Being a metal fan in the 80’s must’ve been incredible.
@@PaullyPorkchopsVids I was at both of those shows as well. Amazing time to see them!
This was my first Slayer concert. A few yrs back I was browsing a record store and saw a Slayer DVD called "SEAT CUSHION INCIDENT" and was like HOLY FUCK< MY FIRST SLAYER SHOW!!! I bought it immediately and when I watched it just brought me back to that scary but exhilarating night in an instant. (At the show AS SOON as Slayer started I lost ALL of my friends (it was like 10 of us at least) I was thrown around like a rag doll and then I had to move away from the crowd as I was being smushed , i couldnt breathe. . I stood on a gate thingy behind the sound stage so i could see and got hit every few mins with seat cushions. It was fucking scary but probably one of the best shows I have ever been to. Obviously, since I STILL remember it.
It really is amazing Dave Lombardo could play so intensely for all that time
Cocaine is a helluva drug.
I'm so happy to see this online! My video was lost! Thank you! One of the craziest/best concerts ever! I was literally off my feet in the pit! (middle of stage beginning) I'm only 5'4" and everyone was like over 6 foot around me..was fucking nuts! I ended up on the right side of the stage and proceeded to go a little deaf in my right ear in front of those STACKS of speakers with guitar solos...I saved a piece of foam rubber from this show that fell, or thrown at my head., along with the ticket stub :)
you were probably the only girl at the show hehe
Anna Maria Marino My Buddy Was the One Cutting the Cushions
dragonskulle No We Were There With Two Hotties From Queens All the Way in the Back
Are you from Queens ? we hung out with 2 cool girls from Queens that show .
I was there. Still the SICKEST show I've ever been to!!
RIP JEFF!!!!
a dick head i use to know got cut by someone with a razor at this concert lol
The razor stirrups ? I saw a guy going into the pit and start slashing people with them on his boots. He got beat down pretty bad after people realized what was happening.
@@joeylodes im not sure what it was i didn't see it
Same I was there We sold hits to get tickets
@@joeylodes When I was there I remember hearing about people slashing people with razor blades and seeing people covered in blood.
Because it was 1988. Establishments were still learning the new rules set forth by SLAYER!!!
Thank You Jeff Hanneman!!!!
The intensity of the band and crowd was astounding. I saw them first time in early '91 at Aragon Ballroom in Chicago. As soon as Dave came out and started the Raining Blood intro the crowd started pulling the metal chairs apart to create a pit. The sound of metal clanging was as loud as the music. As a skinny teenage kid I was scared to death but also so excited to be seeing Slayer.
I was at this show...absolute and utter chaos.
First Slayer show I ever saw and it started it all for me. Just saw them play for the last time tonight in Denver. Fucking amazing ride....thanks for all the memories. Still have the shirt from this show 30 years later....FUCKING SLAYER!!!!
Judging by the comments on this video there had to be at least 1 million people in that pit!
Yeah 221 comments
I'm envious of all you who were at this show. INCREDIBLE!!!
This is the tour I saw
Thanks to the uploader.
Eternally
Who else liked to sit lower balcony and observe this mayhem? we had the best shows ever as teens.
Slayer was scary energy
Damn what a set!!! You can sense all of Hell's Demons summoned by the time they deliver Alter of Sacrifice/Jesus Saves
Then the vandalized seat cushions start flying!!!!
I was there and like others said.. What a show! It was insane...
At the beginning with the commercial for the show....I haven't heard that guy for 30 years!
Cuts rose scents He was cool that guy
Sickest pit ever. Absolute mayhem!
What a fantastic setlist. The opening sequence alone, is an absolutely neckbreaker. Unbelievable!
Thank you, old concert, for reminding me of how much I love At Dawn They Sleep. Such a great moshing song!
A friend of mine tried to digitize my old VHS of this, which was a dub of a dub of a... and was stored in a wet basement for decades. No go. Psyched it's online. I was 14 in '88 and would have been scared to death to be here. A couple years later, I started going to L'Amour & I thought THAT was crazy.
Layouts was awesome back then as well
L'amour was crazy af in the early 90s
I was there, it was my 22nd birthday. Up in front tossing people around in my blood vest
I was there - ears rang for over a week. One of the sickest shows ever.
security look like there scared to death hahaha I love it
Randy Conner they where scared to DEATH
R.I.P. Jeff.
EASILY one of the greatest shows I've ever seen in my life. It was an awesome time for Thrash and to be young and a part of that whole thing blowing up. I'd never been in a pit that fucking big and I'm glad I was there. Unreal, man. I feel bad for all the people who don't get it. On second though...fuck them.
Joe B. Well said! I'm your age and we got to see some GREAT SHIT!!!
Great post brother
Was at this show sore as Hell could not move for 2weeks deaf to.
Lombardo is a fuckin beast!!! There's no one even close.
The most brutal show I was ever at. Blood and chairs flying everywhere.
I was at this show!! It was fucking hilarious that there tour promoters booked them a gig at the Felt Forum. They actually thought that we would remain seated in there plush felt seats during Slayer? WRONG WRONG!! LMFAO BAAAAAAAA HAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!! No moshpit at a Slayer show due to pretty little plush seats= total fucking destruction of plush seats. Lmfao
Lol..yeah they did the same thing in chicago...they had a few rows up front of chairs that got destroyed when Slayer came on..
Snuck out with friends to see this show. 16 years old. Bus and train from Queens. The whole area around Madison Square garden was buzzing with metal heads smoking up and drinking forties. The anticipation for this show was through the roof. I’d seen AC/DC and Judas Priest . But Slayer were a monster at this point. Danzig was cool and I bought their first record right after this show. As far as the NYC crowd at that time it was much more violent and that venue was not designed for a wild slamming drunk Slayer crowd. It was mayhem. I think a few kids were hurt badly or killed up front. I sat upstairs and the cushions were flying all night. If the show had been stopped there would have been a riot. Unforgettable experience. This shit opened my young eyes to other more extreme metal. RIP Jeff.
WOW WHAT FOR YEAR AND RELEASES❤
Poor security guys, they never had to work so hard before!
I was there as well. Still have the ticket stub. What an incredible night!!! Major violence. Probably the most violent show I've ever been to. Long live the cushion snow storm!
My buddy had the razor that started it lol .
Shirts were alot cheaper than..i think i paid like $10 each for mine when I saw them in Chicago...
Somehow they were able to get all the punks, skinheads and metal heads all in one place
This is sic - read between the lines - how amazing to hear this live - saw them many times in the 90's but so loved to have seen them live on this tour. South of heaven is my fav, cuz its heavy as f**k in parts but far more creepier than reign.
I love these metal show commercials they're so cool!!!
rise chairs of war
eon14873 you nailed it. Keep posting!!!
1:11 Tom" let's just stop throwing these fucking cushions" lol
My god, i was 17 n ripped the seats apart with d rest of us diligence, slayer paid😅
I"m from Aust and had this on a VHS boot for years. Awesome show 🤘
You guys can't imagine how jealous I am of the guys that were there.
NoFunNoMoshNoCoreNoTrends Yeah I was there and now we are all about 50 years old, and I still listen to them.
И вновь продолжается бой
И сердце трепещет в груди
И Ханеман такой молодой
И юный октябрь впереди!
Вечная память Джеф..
I was at this show. It was pure mayhem and words don’t do it justice.
I was there! ... somewhere where this was filmed from. Unforgettable show ...
It was hot as Hell out outside inside was 1000degrees. FF wasn't never the same
1989 at the Fillmore in Denver. That was my first Slayer concert.
raining seats, die by the seat, seats warfare etc
Seats Awaits
Chair Illusion
The best part of this show was Danzig; not because of Danzig as a band but because they played mostly Misfits and Sam Hain songs. It was a complete surprise to all of us that Dazing was there at all since it wasn't announced until a few days before the show and it wasn't like it is today where there's an information flood about every fu%$ing thing. When my friend and I heard Where Eagles Dare playing we assumed it was on the P.A. but we walked in and freaked out. There was hardly anyone in the entire Felt Forum and even most of our friends missed Danzig as we were just so psyched that we didn't even think to go out and tell them. Wish there was a bootleg of the Danzig portion of the show. I've had this on VHS for years!
No fuckin way. Waiting for the day we can hack memories and upload them into our brains. Lol
Saw Slayer in Texas Motorhead and Overkill opened 1988. Fxxking LOUD!
I CALL BULLSHIT!!! Prove it and post!! Danzig Hated Misfits and Sam Hain back then. No way Danzig played those songs. Liar.
Here's the setlist - I was at this show. If memory serves - they were being booed. It's Slayer after all! LOL www.setlist.fm/setlist/danzig/1988/felt-forum-new-york-ny-63d70aab.html
@@clintonkinsey482 They did the same thing at the Houston show. Danzig had just changed the name from Samhain.
Espetacular! Killer setlist! 🔥🔥🔥
Seen them on this tour a few months later at the Cameo Theater on Miami Beach.
Brutal Show!!!
Brings back memories, I was at this show.
Now THAT is a Slayer show!
brutal!!! i was not there :(
I was there , Danzig opened . I tore my seat out with my keys and threw it then everyone else did . Tom wasn’t happy . Great times
@@KCNYC everyone is super tough on the internet , lol
What an original thing to do
@@bill1388 I’m tough in person too
@@KCNYC only a complete idiot would complain about something from 33 years ago that had nothing to do with them go away troll
My buddy snuck a razor in .
Thanks ✌️
I was there. What a sick show it was! 🤙🏻
Rumour is , cushions are still flyin'....
Holy hell did you see the seat fly at Lombardo at 1:13:15?
Maideneer he didn't miss a beat either.
Actually that me! Was soaking get with beer. I had just turned 15 yr old. Was in the pit entire show. Made it on stage once. They ripped out every fkn seat cushion. Got banned for life. Ty so much for posting
It’s angel of death what do you expect
Slayer was so brutal and unmatched then. Every venue they played practically got destroyed cause the music was so fresh and evil and people back then with little to no rules and the aftermath of the 70's especially in cities like NY its a surprise there were no murders or real crime. Just mostly vandalism and drunken fights. Saw Slayer numerous times in small urinal clubs like Lupo's and the old living room in Providence RI. No band can stir up a crowd like Slayer and every honest Metal fan and musician that's seen Slayer live know it especially in their prime.
Very very true...Amen
hell yeah
Slayer playing on stage: 20%
Fans jumping on stage and diving into the moshpit: 30%
Security guards protecting slayer and throwing guys into the moshpit: 150% (I'm sure they were signing autographs when show was over) 😁
This show was bananas. I remember some kid ripped out a portion of the metal bannisters in the seating area and tossed it into a sea of people in the standing room only section. This giant hunk of metal disappeared into strobe lights and must've took out more than a few people hahahaha Today's generation would never have survived the 80s, or early 90s.
This is a great set list they played
My memory is not making stuff up . We were way crazier back in the day. Not just this video but most from the 83-92 period. Today's crowds can be so tame if you're not front & center with the good group. But at the end here they are simply costing Slayer tons of cash ha ha. Amazing that they still played on. So many bands would have quit.
True saw Slayer at Hammerjacks (Baltimore) 1990 and was insane chick dove off a stack and was seriously injured not until the paramedics arrived did Slayer or the Pit stop.
I like how Tom had the Sex Murder Art shirt 6 years before he wrote the song about it
Silent Scream goes heavy in this
I remember watching this on bootleg VHS tweekin lol
haha I have this on dvd before I even saw this on youtube lol
Same but on VHS before DVD
13:30 fuckin' ACE Lombardo bangin' his fuckin' head and rippin' the shit outta his fuckin' drums 🤘
Saw them a month after this in Providence, RI. Place went crazy and ripped half the seats out of the floor, it was a real theatre. Overkill opened, I was 14 years old
Same thing happened at the Orpheum in Boston.
what a gift
I bought 2 shirts from this tour..they were like $10 each...alot cheaper back than..👍👍👍👍
I saw these guys a few weeks earlier at The Stone in San Francisco CA, a club which is no longer there. I am glad for these guys and the career that they have had and I hate to say it but after Seasons In The Abyss it wasn't the same, not bad but just not the same and the crowd is my mane point. These guys use to play in San Francisco it seemed like once every 4 months before Hell Awaits came out and even when they came around in 85 opening up for Venom the amount of kids at school the next day wearing Slayer shirts was amazing to see. The shows were always amazing and even when Reign In Blood came out the amount of skinhead punks that were at the show was something I had never seen a metal band do like they did, loved my youth.
I saw them on November 5th. 1988 at the Orpheum Theatre in Boston with Motorhead a nd Overkill. The loudest concert I have ever been to!!!
I was at that one. Some rows of seats got torn out. You must remember The Channel. I saw them there after this when they did the “Week in the Abyss” tour in small clubs. That was mayhem. I saw everyone at The Channel. Probably saw Overkill a dozen times there. Place was always full of skinheads and FSU.
saw them in copenhagen denmark during this tour , murderous !
"Fat bouncer in a little shirt, Fat bouncer in a little shirt".
no shit right haha. dude needs to sit down
His name is Tommy.
I saw Slayer w/ Danzig on this tour at The Hollywood Playdium. The police had their usual riot.
Great show! The band was at their peak. Tom's voice is perfect, Jeff and Kerry play tight as fuck and Lombardo is a beast.
As much as i enjoy a fun mosh pit, I don't understand people here who finds hilarious that the place was ripped apart and that the people got so violent (cutting people with razorblades WTF)
De chile saludos mis dioses slayer 🤟🤟🤟
Tom fucks up the last verse of Kill Again He repeats verse 1 ahha FYI This was the last tour this song was played on
Ppl don't know how gd those days where. NYC was the best for shows. Metallica was there 1year half before this shows. Torn seat cushions when Battery kick in it was just intense back then to
I was there for both. Was that when Metallica played with Metal Church?
Saw them 2 months later in Providence I had front row Same deal with seats ripped out to pit Overkill opened
No mamby pamby Rock and Roll....😂😂😂
You gotta love the old Radio Ads!!!!!!
I wasn't into trash or any hardcore in general but did see them here. Stood on the left side of the stage I couldn't hear for 2 days
Me too. I think it was for two nights. But all I remember is it was sick but everyone was ripping the cushions off of the seats and throwing them and Araya was getting pissed. Actually it must have been the last night - Araya yelled that because of us they cannot play the felt forum again and told everyonecto go F themselves....in the end as they walked odd stage.
Tremendooo😊
this is sick
Tom was GREAT at controlling his crowds, talking them down.
Remember the cops on stage at the beginning of the show?
UglyFloren Slayer shows were so scary...and I knew in my paranoid state the cops were staring at me while smoking...but I survived at least 2 Slayer shows, my favorite shows ever
Yes, the front wall collapsed before Slayer came out, they had to get like 100 NYPD's to stand shoulder to shoulder and tell everybody to BACK THE FUCK UP so they could put the wall back up.
Oh yes.
My dad still talks about when he saw slayer at the Aragon ballroom in chicago in 1986. He said the cats ripped the chairs up and were throwing them everywhere!! He told me it was the most brutal show he ever saw!! The crowd even spit on the start up band, Running wild and booed them off the stage.
I saw them at the Aragon on this tour back in 88..the bathrooms had blood on the walls after the show..
@@Mr.Potatoehead69 slayer is brutal man.
Thanks for sharing that with me, it made my day
@@headbanger9549 Your welcome...it was a crazy and hott day..the show was in August and the fans booed off the 2 opening bands Trouble and Danzig...yeah they also had chairs in the front that got destroyed when slayer came on..lol...
Running Wild opened for Slayer? I've never heard that.
Some years later Tom wil stare into the ocean of smartphones instead
Makes not wanna go to shows because of this. 80's underground metalheads hate Posers !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I will say props to the person who filmed this though. It wasn’t easy to film a show back in those days.
insane
They probably were the best live band out of the Big Four at that stage.Anthrax were very good live too
I saw this tour with Judas Priest in San Francisco CA
i saw this tour
first ever
BIG D Tx State fair Coliseum with Motorhead and overkill
well why the hell are there seats at a slayer show? nobody sits at a slayer show!
Steven Wischer it was a classy musical venue..when they came through Dallas they played at the State Fair Colisium, no padded seats to tear there!
Somebody still hurled a steel pipe on stage.
Tom warned he'd stop the show if we didn't keep idiots from chnking shit onstage.
Of course this music pumps people up.
We got the full encore with Antichrist and maybe one more before Angel of Death!!
Crowd needed something to throw!
