Damn...Megadeth's webmaster just sent me the following email:

Hi Clay, Dave Mustaine asked me to send this bit of news out to everyone.

SLAYER'S KERRY KING TO PERFORM WITH MEGADETH TONIGHT

As a grand finale to the Jägermeister Fall Music Tour, Slayer guitarist Kerry King will be joining Megadeth on stage tonight, October 21 at the Gibson Amphitheater in Hollywood, California to perform Megadeth's classic "Rattlehead"! This will be the first time in 26 years that Kerry King has shared the stage with Megadeth since he played with the band during Megadeth's very first shows in 1984. Tonight marks the last show of North America's biggest thrash tour in 20 years with the 1991 original "Clash of the Titans" lineup – Slayer, Megadeth and Anthrax. Some tickets are still available for tonight’s show! Hurry to get your tickets at Ticketmaster.com.

I wish I could be there.

Dammit, why does all the cool shit happen in la la land, sounds like its gonna be a bad ass show.

Good. Now Chris Broderick can join Slayer to give us some listenable Slayer solos.

I was there. That was awesome. Place went nuts! Anthrax was better than Megadeth tonight. Slayer was insane as always. Anthrax is definitely back!

Maybe Kerry's not an asshole after all.

nah, he probably lost a bet or something.

Now that's totally believable!

I don't doubt that for a second. Dave's vocals are getting worse and worse. He should focus on writing songs with fewer lyrics.

Excellent idea - he could do instrumental guitar stuff instead. Get rid of that widdler Broderick and do instrumental stuff with Marty Friedman, that'd be cool.

Friedman is too busy doing Japanese pop music. I loved his time in the band too, but you have to let go.

Talk about a glam rock star. All of the people in the section near me were making fun of how he was doing the windshield wipers with his hair the entire time on stage. It was pretty gross. He looked like he should be in Winger and not Megadeth. Great guitar player like most glam / metal players. Just was hard to watch it during a Thrash metal set.

Slayer doesn't need anyone else. They blew away all of the bands, my ears are still ringing from them. They don't fuck around. Pure chaos the entire set. The out of control solos are great. Don't need any glam rock star playing any 'nice' solo's for slayer.

 

[trickrtreat]

Some of the solos on the WPB album are anything but chaotic. Hanneman's solo in "WPB," the song with which they open their set, is a real snoozer.

Mustaine said he had to tame Broderick because he had to much wank, esp. whammy bar riding. He's no Friedman (yet), but at least his solos have energy.

 

[jdelpi]

Hanneman sounded like he was playing different songs than the rest of the band in Louisville and in Columbus. The rest of the band was spot on.

Are you really that stuck on how people look? You said it yourself, Broderick is a great guitar player, technically the best out of all the bands, so why does it matter?
