Slaughter Tickets

These guys bring it! Tight and hard. Unbelievably, this was the first time I've ever seen them although another 24 years won't go by before I see them AGAIN! Pleasantly surprised, though the show could have been another 15 minutes longer (45 min. show)! Zoltan Cheney on drums is out of this world! I couldn't stop watching him--he's an absolute animal on the skins! I can't explain him, you just have to see the show.

Excellent show that transported you back to the early 90's when this band was at their peak. Very lively, Mark Slaughter even came down to the crowd, walking through aisles as he sang. Very talented musicians. Cool to hear songs like Fly to the Angels, Up All Night, Burnin' Bridges, it's a Wild Life and many others. Opening act, Autograph, also put on a great show without original singer Plunkett. Turn up the Radio, Send Her to Me, Blondes in Black Cars, Dance All Night were the highlights. Can't believe it's been 30 years since Autograph opened for Van Halen on their 1984 tour. Overall, a good deal to see these bands together. Recommended.

Opening band (no idea who it was but it wasn't Doomsday Diaries) was awful and didn't even go to my seat when I heard them in the lobby. Autograph was laughable and I was surprised that people stood up to "enjoy" their set - I guess they still have fans. The sound was better with Autograph than Slaughter which was a shame. The lighting guy during Slaughter couldn't get his/her act together. And Mark (Slaughter) sounded like he was screaming rather than singing - of which all of the instruments drowned him out. And they only played 4 songs? It felt as if Autograph had a longer set. The show ended at 10:49pm so they had ample time to do a final song. Bergen PAC is a decent venue but this show by no means was sold out. Summary: Disappointed.

Slaughter only played for 41 minutes. Very disappointing!!!

Only gave four stars because even though Slaughter is a great band and they do rock the set was short only an hour long. Now this was not Slaughter's fault. They were only allotted an hour to play as Great White was allotted the second hour. The Hard Rock in Biloxi allows them this time as they have to open the Roadhouse Live Club in the same area that concerts are held. That the pits for us concert goers as we get a scaled back show. That being said Slaughter did out on a great show. I always enjoy seeing Dana Strum prance around stage with his bass guitar. For me he is the soul of the show! Great White also delivered a great performance. Mark Kendall is a phenomenal guitarist and even though Terry Illous is not Jack Russell he puts on a rockin' show with his vocals! I would highly recommend seeing these two great bands anytime they play near.

Slaughter still holds a great concert. Enjoyed all aspects of their performance. Highly recommend. They played with Great White as the closing band. We did not enjoy thr bsnd thst much. About 1/3 of crowd lefy after Slaughter.

Slaughter hasn't missed a step. Brought back great memories and created some new ones! Great White, while not all original members, sounded great.

This was the first double headliner we attended at the Hard Rock. We had high expectations. Slaughter was a disappointment. They were entirely too loud and would have sounded better if they would have turned the volume down. They also brought all of their kids on stage for most of the concert and they sang on several songs. This might have been fun for the band members but not for the audience. The night was redeemed when Great White hit the stage. The were fabulous. One of the best bands we have ever seen. We would see Great White again and again. We would never go see Slaughter again.

Slaughter played and sounded just as they did 20 years ago. I love Motley Crue's Tommy Lee but Tommy was showed up by who ever the drummer is for Slaughter. This guy made the show!!! Everybody leaving the concert talked about the drummer and how great they sounded. I flew into Mississippi just to see them and Great White. MONEY WELL SPENT!!!

This was an excellent show on many levels; there're only two 'buts' in this review. The warm-up band Heaven Below may be talented, and seemed to get a bit better during their set, but, the sound was awful (definitely too loud, yet mixed with so much midrange that you didn't feel any bass impact at all). Please note that I wasn't the only one in our immediate vicinity (middle of venue where sound should be optimum) that commented on how bad their sound was. I suspect they will sound much better if their sound man is unable to show and any random audience member sits in on the sound board... Thankfully, Slaughter and Great White didn't disappoint at all sound-wise...they both sounded much better than Heaven Below...plenty loud without the too-bright sound (okay, shrillness) Heaven Below presented. Slaughter...what can I say...I was prepared for a band I'd enjoy while waiting for Great White; it turned out that watching Slaughter's current drummer, Zoltan Chaney, was the highlight of the evening! I'd never seen him before, and I can only say that he's the most entertaining musician I've seen in quite a while. I'm not saying he's technically the best drummer I've heard recently, only that watching him perform was incredible! Great White, with their current lead singer Terry Ilous, performed admirably (here's that second 'but'), however, I personally have always equated Great White with Jack Russell's vocals more than any other single ingredient, and I was disappointed that he wasn't performing with them. I do hope to catch his version of Great White (also on tour now) for a cross-reference. Now that I'm past the 'but' I can say that Terry Ilous is convincing on their old material, and even the new song they performed that Terry Ilous wrote was good, so I'm going to stick with the overall excellent rating. Overall, given the very reasonable price, an excellent date night!

I have to be honest we only watched the Slaughter portion of the show. So no review on the opening bands or Great White. Slaughter was great. All of the band members were on top of their game. Musically the show was excellent and very entertaining! Mark can still hit those high notes with no problem. The drummer and bassist put on a great show of theatrics and Mark walked out through the crowd singing to the ladies. It was very personable and just a great show. Nice to see the band holding true to everything they produced early on.

Excellent show! It was great to finally see two bands form my youth live and they did not disappoint. The guys in Slaughter can still rock and Mark Slaughter can still hit all those high notes! Oh..and I have to mention the sick drummer in Slaughter. That guy is truly a sight to behold. talk about skills! Great white was incredible too. Excellent mix of rock and blues. Sounded perfect. Mark Kendall is still incredible. Lots of energy and very tight playing.

I can only speak for me, but maybe it's because i haven't been to a concert in 20 years, but I was blown away on how great both bands sounded. Definately better the their recorded versions.

MARK SLAUGHTER CONTROLLED THE STAGE. DANA STRUM OUT PERFORMED HIMSELF. I WOULDN'T HAVE MISSED IT FOR THE WORLD.

Great SHo Great Musci Great People !!! Great Band Go see Them

Five stars for Slaughter!!! Their performance was great! They sounded sooooo good. We've missed them!! It was great to see them back in OC. Hopefully they'll be back again soon!!

Because they were the opening act ....it wasn't one of their best...

There was no mention of Great White replacing the singer. Big let down.

Slaughter consisiting of Mark Slaughter, Dana Strum, Blando, and Zoltan Chaney rocked the house. They have rocking for over two decades. The guys really appreciate their true fans.

They brought it! Rocked it out like rock stars should!
