Butler on touring with Slayer: "It's a bucket list thing. I've been a Slayer fan from Day 1, and being in a band myself the dream always was to play with Slayer. It came true... it took 30 plus years (laughs). It's definitely awesome. Pretty much every band from the '80s that was playing heavy music, Slayer was an influence."
