Exactly right with your post animal.
Im grew up with the big four, as you know Metallica, Slayer, Megadeth and Anthrax. I went to lots of gigs last year and got lots of footage for my youtube page as I guess like you said they are not going to be around much more. I saw Metallica twice Sheffield last Feb and Brum in March. went to Megadeth and Judas Priest at Sheffield on the Priest Feast Tour and seen Slipknot twice too, one of at the download Festival.
Metallica's show was awesome and Hetfield I think plus Lars and Kirk are knocking 46 so I guess they have a few more years as do Thrax (with Bush) Megadeth and I think Slayer will / might fade first. But hey what a year last year with Death Magnetic, Endgame and World Painted Blood (best in that order IMO) and Thrax still to release due to Dan Nelson leaving. I want to see all of them at this years Sonisphere... that would be great plus Download as its only 20mins away from me here.
I had a new experiance Saturday which was Napalm Death, Ive heard abit of there stuff over the years but the gig at the Wulfun in Wolverhampton was great \m/ but yes the demise of some of the great metal bands will be soon upon us so see them while you can. Anyway I could talk about metal all day but so I will leave you with why to see these metal gods now before they go for good.
