Yesterday, we were concerned about Tom Araya, after he checked himself into the hospital over the weekend. While no details were released, we assumed it had to do with his history of back problems, but turns out that wasn't the case. Tom's wife, who has become the source of all Araya news lately, posted a status on her Facebook saying Tom was "suffering from vertigo due to extreme dehydration and lack of rest" and adding "Our doctor is in the process of getting the results on the test that were ran (major time zone difference and being the weekend has held up those results). Hopefully there will be nothing more to add after the results are returned." Well, I am glad that this has nothing to do with his back, but also shit like this makes you realize that Slayer are not young guns anymore, by any stretch of the imagination and there may not be many more opportunities to see the band live anymore, and that sorta sucks.
