Slayer’s Tom Araya and Kerry King – HuffPost 9.10.10

Mike Ragogna: Speaking of kids, do you have any advice for new or young musicians?

Kerry King: You’ve gotta f**kin’ practice a lot. I don’t. I scare myself sometimes when I think about how good I could be if I really tried.

Tom Araya: You know, don’t give up. Be persistent. Don’t listen to critics; you’re your worst critic. The only advice I have is don’t give up, and don’t go looking for anything. Don’t go looking, it will find you. Just be awake when it does because you might miss it.

MR: What a great line.

TA: It’s like opportunities are always in front of you, and you need to see them. So, don’t go looking for it because you’ll never find it. Let it find you. And never give up.

MR: Never give up.

TA: Never give up. Never, ever give up because dreams come true.
