Slayer<\/a>\u2019s lengthy farewell tour and the thrash metal legends\u2019 four-decade touring career came to an end Saturday with what was billed as the band\u2019s final concert ever at the Forum in Inglewood, California.<\/span><\/p>\n

Following the conclusion of \u201cAngel of Death,\u201d the last song of the final show, Slayer spent 10 more minutes onstage, with band mates hugging each other and taking one last photo of themselves together in front of a crowd. <\/span>Bassist\/singer Tom Araya and guitarist Kerry King then remained onstage as the crowd continued to shower them with applause and chants. An emotional Araya eventually addressed the audience for the last time.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThank you. Thank you very much. I want to thank you for sharing your time with us. Time is precious, so I want to thank you for sharing that time with us,\u201d Araya said.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m gonna miss you guys. But the most important thing is I want to thank you<\/em> for being a part of my life. Goodnight. You guys be safe.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

As with Slayer\u2019s previous Final Campaign gigs, the band delivered a career-spanning 20-song set that featured tracks from 10 of their studio albums, including South of Heaven<\/em>, Seasons in the Abyss<\/em> and Reign in Blood<\/em>, three of Rolling Stone<\/em>\u2019s 100 Greatest Metal Albums of All Time<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n
