I went to Sonisphere on Friday to see the big 4, missed Anthrax due to nightmare journey and motorway chaos... Megadeth where very good, adn as for Metallica, they where outstanding!

They played for about 2.30 hours and where brilliant. They opened with Hit the Lights, followed by Master of Puppets. Towards the end all the bands from the big 4 and diamond head came on and played diamond heads "am I evil" together - which was fantastic

Pleased you enjoyed yourself, how are your ears??

LOL - actually the ears are fine, which was a shame really as my hotel was on a main road so I was awake from 6am due to traffic...

Here's a link to some of the pics I took, as you can see I wasn't too far from the stage (gave the mosh pit a miss - too old for that LOL)

Looks like a good show.

A friend of mine who lives a few miles from knebworth (and who isnt a metal fan) was moaning about the noise. Must have been good.

LOL - he should celebrating listening for free what others paid lots of money for

James - it was amazing, was looking forwards to seeing Iron Maiden at the MEN in a couple of weeks, but after that.... I know Maiden are good live, but how can you top Metallica at soni?

i never been into heavy metal.... but metallica are the dogs bllx bar nobody
theres just something magical about the sound and music of this band ( not volume..)

can somebody analyse it

Some have it some don't.

wish I could play 10% as well as they do!

You are right, they are a level higher than most, no wonder Dave Mustaine had such a chip on his shoulder about them...

I love thrash, but was never really into metallica, but I do respect them. and love master puppets, the whole album is awsome. Theres only a few songs by Megadeth I like. But I like Metallicas 1st thrash albums way better than Megadeths. Sounds like an awsome show
