RollingStone.com has published an overview of the Big Four show in Indio, CA, featuring METALLICA, MEGADETH, SLAYER and ANTHRAX, which took place on April 23td. It is capped off with comments from Metallica drummer regarding the Big 4's future in North America:
Ulrich: "We are looking to book something on the East Coast because of the success of this – it should hopefully come together in a week or two. Maybe we'll do somewhere in the Midwest and South, too. Still, I don't think it will turn into a 40-date arena tour; that would make it less special. I like the fact that there's an element of chaos to the whole thing. It shouldn't be sterile, streamlined and perfect: it needs an edgy underbelly to remain authentic."
