Like Motorhead, and The Ramones. Slayer's not really known for massive record sales. Live shows, and merch, are prolly their bread n butter. So as iconic as Slayer is. $744 a gig, is insulting.

You can tell how hurt he was by that, their loss. Slayer was his life his legacy, I mean who are we kidding its not the same without Jeff either, so it was meant to dissolve sooner or later. Respect to Dave for having a positive outlook through it all. So happy to see he is still regarded as the greatest. accomplishing so much beyond Slayer over the years, its insane. From Bungle to Misfits, to Suicidal Tendencies, just the right man for the job.

He deserves atleast 6mil$ a yr as a bare minimum for his stature and talent!

I was in the second row at this seminar. Dave spoke so well and from the heart. Poor man got shafted. Greatest drummer 🥁 in metal 🤘

I think slayer have a great music but bad management, with his level they must be millionaires not like Metallica but near... Dave really played out like crazy with this band hi deserved more, evident

I believe this was the moment that Kerry King wrote off ever working with Dave again.

Tom and Kerry don't deserve him

Dudes drumming is sick as f***one of my most influential drummers of the 90s I can play a little bit like Dave

I was just calculating how much I made this year working in the Gulf of Mexico and its roughly 67k. For a drummer of his caliber, that's bullshit.

Sp the real Satanists were the lawyers and accountants and managers ? 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Drums is a physical instrument. Touring is Brutal for Drummers! Especially in METAL/TRASH

Some lifetimes show you the shitheads to avoid! You got this.

Who’s better? Paul? Or Dave?

Dave was the biggest reason I listened to slayer. Him and Joey Jordison were my biggest influences and helped me push myself to the level I maintain today.

And Slayer did a few shows. Supposed to be retiring. Money greedy guys. Tom and Kerry.

Dave doesn't play with a click track. The click track plays with Dave.

Lesson 2: Don`t put to much trust in the manager going by the name of Sales. 😉

Defining metal drummers: 1. Philthy Animal 2. Abaddon 3. Dave Lombardo

Sounds like Slayer basically were on the Motörhead business plan, which means no plan at all.

Man's a genius.

When I first listen to South of Heaven, the drums were coming out of everywhere!!!!!❤ One of my favorites, never thought MONEY WOULD BE AN ISSUE 😢

Best drummer I've ever heard. Appreciate your style enjoy your time bro

Encontrei o Dave Lombardo no shopping West Plaza uma vez (acho que 2012). Acredite se quiser... um dos melhores bateristas do mundo fez questão de conversar comigo em espanhol porque na época eu tinha dificuldades de falar inglês. Que cara gente fina! Ele ainda me levou até a loja de roupas do amigo dele, o Tiago Torres, dono da Mr Kitsch e vocalista da banda Mad Dragzter... o Tiago estava começando uma marca de rock chamada Army Ink... ganhei 3 camisetas, troquei muita ideia com eles...que tarde feliz para um adolescente metaleiro! Dave não merecia passar por isso.

Garth the man!

The Monster

Wow, just wow! What a treat this was.

One bad,ass,drummer of all, time. I went to see slayer with him 2 times,and met him backstage

Ok Kerry. I would love to hear your response to this

I think Dave did blasts on Supremist on Christ Illusion and Public Display of Dismemberment from World Painted Blood to name a couple.

Where Alex Bent's famous run begins

Slayer would never have gotten as far as they did without Dave. He is so important to their sound during their golden age.

why is it so harrd for some to not have a seizure when filming

It’s so fucking cool that he did this and didn’t have to. But that’s how cool he is. I just saw him with the Misfits and it was 🤌🏽

I refused to see slayer ever again without Dave. Glad I could see the original slayer! Thank you for the video.

We fucking adore you dave, we're hurt at the state of slayer right now, but we're much happier you're happier, seeing you play in all your favourite bands just having a great fucking time is inspiring, everything a musician should be. Legend.

Kerry King couldn't get a dog to bark at him when he left slayer. Nobody was interested in bringing him in, he said so himself. Dave Lombardo is universally revered by his peers and has a line of world class musicians lining up to have him drum for them to this day. Look at his media. Constantly meeting new musicians with a smile beaming across his face.

Dave ROCKS…. Level headed good man….. Wicket DRUMMER

For Dave to earn that little and for Tom and Kerry to earn that little shows Slayer got absolutely robbed by the management and record label

100% This is why you will never see KK Downing with Judas Priest again either. Despite he is fit for play. Its the business and Rob and Glenn are bought off, this and that. Its awful really. Either way this was 10 years ago, and SLAYER is DEAD! Jeff is Dead! Araya is done! The only one carrying is the bald headed midget with his own nonsense. Its done its over!

Dave is a master at fast playing at aggressive volumes all the while maintaining his rudiments and unique fills. I always recognize when it's him playing on a record. That's when you know you're a truly great drummer.

Dave was right to go. When you help start a band and even have them rehearse in your own home, it would have meant everything to him. Then to be ripped off by your fellow band mates after giving your all is a backstab 100. The best thing he could do was walk. Slayer were never quite the same again, and at the end were crap with Gary.

He could've said a lot worse considering what's out there.

I've always found it hard to reconcile what a monster he is on the drums with how down to earth he is. Like if I didn't know who he was and they told me 'oh yeah this is one of the best extreme metal drummers of all time' I'd do a double take.

Well? That was pretty F Ing Amazing!

Been a Slayer fan since a teenager and I am 50 now but it seemed I made a better career choice being a lawyer after watching this poor guy getting screwed. Fucking legend of a guy but f@@@ those managers!

Nice guy there

You look at some drummers and see what they have made in $ over the years compared to Dave Lombardo and it's literally beggar's belief. Lombardo is truly brilliant and has influenced more drummers than most of these guys put together. Timing, technique, versatility, sheer class.

Dear Dave, I've been a major fan of your abilities ever since I was a teen growing up in the 80's. You most definitely deserve all of the best. Much love with the highest amount of respect Dave. You're definitely an inspiration.

I find it completely baffling the goddamn Angel of Death drummer was being paid as much as a worker at Denny's
