I can tell ya, after recently seeing both Megadeth and Metallica live, that the current Megadeth show blows the current Metallica show out of the water. Hands down. No comparison. Maybe in 1988, the scales (of justice?) would have been tipped in Metallica's favor, but not in 2007.

Now, I like a lot of the newer Metallica stuff. It's not like I jumped ship after "...And Justice For All". I loved St. Anger. But I gotta say, when I saw Metallica live two things struck me: 1) They rely WAY too heavily on heart-stopping pyro. It got annoying after a while; and 2) They seem a little (i.e., a lot) pretentious; it was almost like they were thinking "Man are you guys ever lucky to be seeing us play live right now".

I didn't get that from Megadeth. I know Mustaine has a HUGE ego and can be difficult, hence the reason for the revolving door at the lead guitar and drummer spots over the years. He really looked like he was enjoying himself and was thankful for the crowd response (which was huge).

I'd pay double to see Megadeth again. I'm not too sure if I would for Metallica.

think megadeath are the only band out of the classic rock/metal band era that i have not seen.

but im going to donington again this year and so far i will be seeing;

Megadeath, Slayer, Iron Maiden, Killswitch Engage, Chimaira and some others i forget.

Zoner 03-30-2007 08:09 PM

You won't be disappointed, manno.

I've seen all those bands but Killswitch and Chimaira. That'd be an awesome show...I've always wanted to go to Donington. rock:

come then! last year the riots were simply unmissable along with the riot police. and the bin men.

only thing is im betting megadeath will be playing during the early afternoon which would suck.

zone, i cant see how you can say megadeth is better than metallica live. ive seen each a couple times. and metallica was much better.

Zoner 04-02-2007 10:31 AM

Yeah, I can't agree with that at all.
