Interesting...It says Slayer too but I did not see any members.
more like big three jam SLAYER isnt on stage :(WTF!
Was this the Big Four concert that was shown in theaters?
oh so THIS is what slipknot looks like without their masks
the stage should have exploded at the end. that would have been historic & beautiful.
Thanks for putting this up, man. This is simply amazing!
I wonder why only Dave Lombardo played... At least Tom Araya came out at the end when they all had their backs to the fans.
Jeff sneaks in at the end too.... weird
fucking awesome :D btw @tiggity WTF has slipknot got to do with the GREAT four??
Oh My GOD. HOW did I not hear about this until Just now?
Fucking awesome!!! \m/
yeah where the flying fuck is slayer man!?
The song was too slow for Slayer too play haha we all know they play that fast thrash,but Dave Lombardo is on Lars right
Dave has such a shitty voice....
slayers singer came out at the end and hugged james
metallica had an awesome set!
This is music!!!!!!!!!!!!!
fucking br00tal! great song. Nigga from Anthraz needs some better choice in wardrobe though, ahah.
Where's testament and overkill at?!!?................................
i got to see Megadeth with Testament and Slayer... Megadeth was fantastic... WOW!
Slayer is just too good for this...
this was just a headbangin jam right here...
Slayer is where all the real action's at!
thats a wholllllle other show...
it says Big Four? No Slayer, hmm at least Lambardo was there, If SLAYER was true Thrash they would of played...
liked
Slayer weren't fond of the song(s) chosen to be played at the end saying it didn't represent the music they were playing or something like that. Or so I've heard. The only reason at least one of them was on stage was because they signed a contract. So they kinda had to.
Still, Slayer are better than Metallica, Megadeth and Anthrax put together. I'm not saying the others are crap, just that Slayer are better. Saw 3 renditions of Big Four, two last year and one this year. In fact, I was in the crowd. :)
I would like a tour of The Great Four: Slayer, Exodus, Testament and Overkill. Now that would be fucking awesome!
