The BIG FOUR: Together at Last!

This is what it's all about, kiddies! The Sonisphere festival has begun and the Big Four of Thrash Metal have arrived!

Imagine, one room could possibly hold the likes - and combined egos - of Metallica, Megadeth, Slayer (minus Hanneman in the first picture below), and Anthrax without the floor collapsing from under them! This is truly an epic moment and a rare display of metal talent gathered together - 25 years in the making, and here's your first peek at the bands FINALLY playing nice with one another and actually enjoying each other's presence.

(But, being the cynic that I am, let's see how long this goodwill lasts before they start name-calling and ego-tripping like the prima donnas that they truly are!)
