Slayer announce US and Canada tour

Though Slayer postponed their UK tour just a few days ago, they are planning on hitting North America full throttle in early 2010. For the tour, they are taking Megadeath and Testament. It's called the American Carnage Tour...and for good reason. Plus they promise to have $10 tickets available! Be prepared to have your face rocked off. Pre-sale begins November 18th.

As for the UK and European tour: it was reschedule due to vocalist and bassist Tom Araya recovering from a serious back injury. However, he's vastly improving and they will head across the pond in March.
