I don't know what happened, I guess with the server being fucked up it posted the title but no message, oh well.
Anthrax - Worse band of the night. I give them a 2 out of 10. I said I'd give it a chance with Belladonna, I did, it sucked, period. The power these songs had, even with him originally singing them back in the day, is gone. His stage antics are fucking ass goofy and he just doesn't have the chops to do this well anymore. Madhouse sounded decent as did Metal Thrashing Mad, those out of the whole set were the only 2 exceptions to me. The band should've let John finish out the summer doing the shows and taken their time finding a good replacement, like Dan was, who can sing the old shit but still keep Anthrax sounding modern. I was really disappointed that they didn't come out and show everyone that they ARE back and they ARE stronger than ever. Sorry, they may be back, but 100X weaker instead of stronger. This band made a big mistake in getting him back, again. Maybe he'll sound decent on a studio album where they can mess with his vocals, but live, no fucking way. This band has grown so much as musicians and songwriters that in my opinion it seems like they're gonna have to dummy down to make songs that fit his voice. The power is gone. Make up with Dan, release Worship Music and continue to crush. If they can work things out with Joey twice and John, anythings possible.
Megadeth - I give them a 6 out of 10. Great song selection, great musicianship, but what the fuck happened to Mustaine's vocals??? We were laughing our asses off during Holy Wars and Hangar 18. Sounded like a fuckin cat in heat, maybe he was sick or some shit. I know he isn't the best singer, but all the times I've seen them live I don't ever remember him sounding that bad.
Slayer - 10 out of 10. Best fucking band of the night. Great set and they all sounded fantastic!!!
Metallica - 8 out of 10. Say what you will, but this band brings it every time they take the stage. Would've liked to hear more off Puppets, but still fucking good. I really dug James using the acoustic at the beginning of Fade To Black. The Am I Evil encore was cool except for Joey trying to sing it.
