Seeing the ad for this concert was enough to make me choke on my morning coffee. Marilyn Manson and Slayer together on a shared bill sponsored by (of all places) Hot Topic? This had to be a set-up by the feudmeisters at the NME, or else a match made in hell. Either way, my reaction was one shared by the thousands of heshers and goth kids who...

Yes, it's June 6, which mean it's the sixth day of the sixth month of the year. It'd be considerably more awesome if it was also the sixth year of the century, but that...
