Jack Laidlaw’s Favorite Metal Band – Slayer

The Motorettes vocalist/bassist Jack Laidlaw spoke with Popworld.com in a Q&A, where he was asked about his favorite metal band. “It would have to be Slayer,” he responded. “I’ve been to see them, like, four times in the last couple of years.” Asked if the veteran rockers shoudl think about giving it up and growing old gracefully. Laidlaw responded, “[Laughs] Do you think? Well, I think they’re entitled to. I mean, I know I would be. If I was in Slayer I know I’d still be doing it. What else are you going to do? It’s not like you can just give it up and open up a shop or something like that. You’re in Slayer! You need to keep going as long as you can. And they’re still bloody brilliant live.” The transcript at popworld.com has since been removed.
