METALLICA, MEGADETH, SLAYER And ANTHRAX To Tour?
September 3, 2009, 15 years ago
SLAYER guitarist Kerry King yesterday revealed to Metal Hammer that he has heard through the grapevine that Lars Ulrich is plotting a tour that would include METALLICA, MEGADETH, Slayer and ANTHRAX.
Should this tour materialise, this would be the first time that the big four have toured together as part of the same bill. Megadeth, Slayer and Anthrax were joined by opening act ALICE IN CHAINS for the US Clash Of The Titans tour in 1991. So could it be possible that we could get a tour that includes the big four?
“I’ve heard people referencing Lars,” says King. “I don’t know Lars that well and I haven’t heard it from Lars but apparently he’s talking to somebody about it. Maybe us, Metallica, Megadeth (and), I think he even threw in Anthrax and I said in this day and age, I know we had that time together but how do you leave out Machine Head? There’s better options than Anthrax and that’s nothing against Anthrax, but they’ve just been in pieces for quite some time and that doesn’t make as much sense to me.”
