Sorry about the typo, this is Match 6!
-----------------------------------------------------

I'm going with Megadeth. I'm one of the few people who really liked that lineup with Jimmy Degrasso and Al Pitrelli. It's not a perfect performance (Mustaine sounds like shit at times and Al Pitrelli butchers the solo on Tornado Of Souls), but it's damn near.

S.O.D. is the winner.

 

[johnnieCzech]

A tougher one! I'd pick S.O.D. just because they're S.O.D.

 

[Joecephus]

Another one that should not be a first round match.

S.O.D.

Count me in too. I saw them in Prague on this tour and they were killer, especially Pitrelli. Mustaine's vocal on this disc is terrible though. Train Of Consequences, one of my most favourite songs, I just can't listen to it on Rude Awakening. I also have the feeling that DeGrasso had problems with time keeping at times.

It's been well documented that Mustaine didn't really like how Jimmy played the songs. I guess he pretty much got the gig because he was available when they fired Menza.

I have to admit I heard it ONCE. Then I lost the fucking CD in my band's van. Really.

Ah now I see the pattern!

 

[spacebeer]

Easy, SOD. Megadeth is a fucking perfect but boring as hell live band...
