    Holy fuck dude!

    Closest I ever came was the Clash Of The Titans tour

    Megadeth
    Slayer
    Anthrax
    Testament

    But replacing Testament with Metallica? That's what I've always dreamt about. Especially after seeing them all jam on Am I Evil? OMG I can't wait to see this.


    FUCK YOU LARS! Can't embed the officially pro-shot version anymore. I know that little twinkle toes tennis player had something to do with it.

    Enjoy the videos and music you love, upload original content, and share it all with friends, family, and the world on YouTube.

      Why is Metallicas name the largest, the background a Metallica background, and "The Big 4" written in Metallica lettering?

      They wouldn't be thinking they are bigger than the other 3 now would they? It's the big 4...not the kinda big 3 and Metallica.







      Again, I blame Lars for this. If I ever meet him I'm gonna try real hard not to punch his giant forehead.

        Dammit. Hope I have enough cash. Thing is, between this tour and possibly VH, there are going to be some tours seriously competing for the average ticket-buyer's dollar this year, due to the economy.

          This is really great & will sell out everywhere it goes. I am so glad Dave Ellefson & Joey Belladonna are back with their bands. It wouldn't feel like the Big 4 without them. Now if Mustaine could get back Nick Menza & Marty Friedman, I'd be happier than a pig in shit.

          I hope they do something like the YouTube clip where they all jammed 1 song at the same time. EPIC!

          May have to dust off my old steel toed Doc Martens for the show.

            Got tickets for Sonisphere in the UK to see this. Can't fucking wait.

            The performances from all four bands on the DVD that came out last year were all incredible. Having seen all four bands over the last few years, it's going to be close. Anthrax are the one's to watch here: chronically underated live and on record. Possible show stealers?

              The other bands will have agreed to this. I was surprised to read Mustaine speaking last year about how he happily let Slayer get billed above Megadeth - it seems everyone is just happy to be doing it.

              Given that Metallica sell WAY more tickets than the other three combined, it makes business sense to lay it out like that.

                The byline should be "FOUR BANDS - 1 KEY"

                  Slayer will mop the floor with the other three...especially Metallica...

                    I will definitely get tickets....
                    Reading Crazy From the Heat in four hours flat, in a cramped RV, on the return trip of a 3,000+ mile family outing to New Jersey is an enlightening experience you'll never forget.

                      It's just going to be one show in California.

                          Weird. Over in Indio at the same place they have the Burning Man festival I think. Kinda lame. I'd much rather a stadium where I can get an actual elevated seat in lodge section. Can actually see great that way. These open field shows are kinda lame cause you can hardly see the show and are constantly being pushed & shoved all over the place. And general admission on an open field is a young mans game. If I were still 19 I'd be all over it and pushing for as close to the stage as possible. At 39 I just want to watch the show & enjoy the tunes. Plenty of empty stadiums in Southern CA. Rose Bowl would have been great. Dodger Stadium even better. Qualcomm stadium the best.

                          Even San Bernardino where the US Fest was would have been better than Indio. Ozzfest is held there. Cool spot for a show.

                            Should have been at least 4 shows...So CA, East coast, Texas, Midwest. Too many fans are going to miss out on this.

                            And the So CA should have been closer to LA for people from around the country to fly in and see the show. Now they have to fly to LAX and then drive 2+ hours.

                              WHAT A LOAD OF FUCKING SHIT!

                              Just now checked this out.

                              Motherfuckers. Like everyone who wants to see this can fly out to the fucking desert in Cali.
