Do you think Slayer would endorse a salad if

If you thought Hayley Williams appearance with Billie Eilish at Coachella last weekend was a coincidence (or for that matter Damon Albarn‘s the week Before), it wasn’t. In fact, it gave the Grammy-winning star a chance to collaborate onstage with some of her biggest inspirations. Eilish made headlines for performing “Misery Business” with the Paramore

There are certain concert memories you will always remember. Most have memories of a first show, but you’re typically a little older before you feel brave enough to take part in a circle pit or go crowdsurfing.
