:lol: am i the only person who read the sarcasm in your post ian???

Dear Virus,
I have just read the news that you have reformed!! Upon my brain processing this information, i just had to write these few words about this spectacular news!
Its great to see amazing thrash bands from my youth reforming and still doing the metal thing after all these years!!!!!! Some bands split well before their time and had so much more excellent music in them and to see that these bands are once again going to tour and possibly record is indeed mega-metal-tastic news!! Unfortunately, Virus however, certainly werent one of those amazing bands.
Also, I have to say, i saw you live back in the day, and it is a memory that i will cherish and never forget.!! You were the most dire and cringe-worthy band at the leeds festival, and occasionally over the years, when discussing thrash back in the day, that performance has come up in conversation, and not for the right reasons.

Like a wise man once said "all we need now is for Slammer to reform!"
