"BIG FOUR SCORE" : SLAYER 10, METALLICA 7 1/2, MEGADETH 7, ANTHRAX 7



The score card on the BIG FOUR historic date (9/14/2011-YANKEE STADIUM, NYC, NY):

SLAYER: 10 (The fans went NUTS when SLAYER hit home runs with "Raining Blood", "Angel of Death" and other SLAYER classics. (hats off to SLAYER for never selling out and always keepin it metal, thrash 'til death.) MVP to Dave Lombardo and KERRY KING, and metal horns to Gary Holt (EXODUS) for pinch hitting for Jeff Hanneman .

METALLICA: 7 1/2 (hitting the ball hard, with explosive classics, minus points for Black alblum and post "black" release material and pitching on the mound with a variety of slow and fastballs)

MEGADETH (while injured had a lot of help from the fans inspiring them): 7 1/2

ANTHRAX on the home field playing early in the ball game, leading off: 7

All four bands METALLICA, SLAYER, MEGADETH and ANTHRAX hit home runs and played awesome in the outfield as no balls were hit in the infield, only on the outfield or out of the park.

MVP's: DAVE LOMBARDO (SLAYER, drummer), and KERRY KING (SLAYER guitarist)



That's the one thing (I like) about SLAYER and METALLICA fans, the crowd cheers through out the show, it's not similar to the sound of the chicks screaming for the Beatles back during the BEATLES Shea Stadium gig in the 60's. SLAYER fans induce a constant roar like 4th down and one yard to go at the Super Bowl. The roar at SLAYER shows is the sound of bodies being mangled in the pit, only similar to the sound of jubilant METS fans at the (tore down) Shea Stadium in '86 when the ball went right through Bill Buckners legs. In fact, as competitive as the Yankees are, I don't think any one's heard cheering that loud in the new Yankee Stadium and the only thing that would compare, is if only the Yankees win the World Series on their NEW home field. Yes, if "you hit it out of the ball park" New York fans go nuts: "SLLLLLAAAAAAAYYYYYERRRRRRRRRR AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH".
