Sick Of It All

“We were on tour with Slayer, and it was Slayer, us [Sick of It All], and Meshuggah in 1999. I believe it was in New Mexico. For some reason there was a real odd number we saw, a lot of Mexican midgets at the Slayer show. And they weren’t together. We were hanging out at the merch booth waiting to go on and we counted seven different Mexican midgets. When the show started, in the middle of the set, the Slayer fans in New Mexico were taking their shirts off, lighting them on fire, and then running around with them in the pit. That was one of the craziest things we’ve ever seen. So apparently midgets in New Mexico love Slayer.”
[Sick of It All’s Lou Koller to Metal Underground]

Sick Of It All celebrated their new LP Based On A True Story with a show at Gramercy, flanked by support from Maximum Penalty, This is Hell, and Last Call Brawl. The show was one of two for SOIA over the weekend. They also teamed up with H20, Earth Crisis and tons of others for East Coast Tsunami, a two day festival in Mont Clare, Pennsylvania.

No shots of the support bands at Gramercy, but more Sick of It All pics and tour dates, below…
