Happy Friday, Here’s Tom Araya Playing an Irish Jig on a Mandolin

Man, what a fucking week. It’s like because we got Monday off for July 4th, the universe decided to up the horror and insanity of the following days, just to make one count. The cops killed some people, some people killed some cops, and if all that wasn’t enough, For Today announced they’re breaking up. Harsh times, I tell you.

But it’s okay. Because here’s Slayer frontman and thrash metal Santa Claus Tom Araya playing an Irish jig on a mandolin at a music store in Dublin. That’s all it is–Tom plays the jig and giggles with that big insane smile of his. No political turmoil, no blood in the streets, just Tom having fun with a mandolin.

Watch the video below. You’ve earned it.
