Jeff Hanneman forced to sit out upcoming shows!

Slayer guitarist Jeff Hanneman has been forced to sit out the bands upcoming shows in Australia. Hanneman is currently at home recovering from an infection which caused him to have emergency surgery on his right arm. The infection is thought to have come from a bite by a spider, Hanneman has shown signs of improvement and is well on the road to recovery. He will recieve further treatment such as skin grafts and is expected to make a full recovery. We wish Jeff all the best and hope that he is able to join his band mate out on the road soon. Until that time Slayer will recruit a guest guitar player whose identity is yet unknown but, will be reviled shortly.
