That dude has barely aged at all. He is one of the few that looks like he did 30 years ago.

I saw Slaughter with Winger open for KISS on that tour and I remember what a visual drummer he was. Great stage presence and the stick twirling was great. One of his bass drums up behind him read "This Space For Rent." Thought that was kinda funny. And, he hasn't aged. Right on, Blas.

Still a class act after all these years!!

Remember seeing Slaughter several years ago. Blas was and still is an awesome drummer. Still looks young as ever!

I caught a drumstick from him at The Button South in Lauderdale Fl. After the show I met some of the dudes in Slaughter the band and they signed it. Every one was very nice and cool. Man I miss them Times!

Blas you were literally in the first band I ever saw live opening for KISS on the Hot in the Shade tour. You guys killed it. One minute you're on my sister's wall on a poster and the next you guys are rocking out on stage. Magical times. Thank you.

@DavidAlanDeaton 3 года назад

Saw this show at the Palace of Auburn Hills. Somehow, I accidentally saw Faster Pussycat 3 times that year! haha! They opened for Whitesnake that year too... Whitesnake had Steve Vai filling in.

@ginterka381996 4 года назад

He looks the same like in 80s. 😲 He never aged.

@dowens3781 3 года назад

I guess he just has naturally good looks and good genetics. And he probably didn't do a lot of drugs like most 80's rockers did.

I saw that 1990 tour on back to back nights. Kiss was my absolute favorite at the time and Slaughter was in my top 3 at the time, it was amazing. I think I saw Slaughter again open for Poison but I'm not 100% sure.

@murrayc9615 3 года назад

When Slaughter was opening for KISS during the"HitS" tour, the Nova Scotia show got cancelled because Paul Stanley fell off the stage during a previous show (New Brunswick?). However, everyone came to Halifax anyway and Slaughter (along with Winger) still did their record store appearances to meet the fans. I still have my autographed copy of "Guitar For the Practicing Musician" where Blas wrote "drums rule". (R.I.P. Tim Kelly)

I wish all these aging rockers from back in the day would all make videos or movies of their experiences.. imagine hearing some of the trouble they got into.. or avoided
