Megadeth. Based purely on their first two albums. Add in Rust In Peace and they are IMO untouchable.

That being said I'll take old Sepultura over anyone of the bands listed.

I agree with all of this in general. The first 2 Megadeth albums are excellent. I still like Slayer best out of the 4.

Perhaps it's because I'm not a musician, but Peace Sells was always my least favorite of their first four. Not that it's bad, but I've never quite gotten why it got SO much love.

Not a huge fan of any of the Big Four, but Megadeth would probably be my personal favorite.

Is that the Indio show? I'd like to go but it's too much of an excursion.

How can Anthrax play? I thought they dissed John Bush to get back with Joey Belladonna, then dissed him and now had no vocalist.

A true metalhead wouldn't miss a show of this proportion. For me at least, this is a big deal, call them what you want, but these bands are legends in the world of metal. I would walk from San Diego if I had to. If you really want to go, go. It's going to be a hell of a show an it's most likely that this chance won't come up again.

Didn't know that this is how you qualify to be a metalhead these days.

I live in Virginia, so that's pretty impossible for my poor ass.
