The running order's interesting.  I've no idea how they decide who's "bigger" in an era when nobody sells records any more.

Gojira after Anthrax and Tool after Pantera is sacrilege to my mind but it must be difficult

Part of that may be Charlie Benante needing a break between sets.  Although they are very short sets...

I mean, I like The Doors as much as anybody but why do they get a two hour set when everybody else only gets 20 mins?

Only one song from Tool? ;-/

Judas Priest have released a cover of War Pigs in advance of the show this weekend:

That's frickin' epic!

I live steamed most of it on the Saturday, then caught up with the final bits Sunday morning.  I actually felt quite emotional about it, I've been a Sabbath fan since I started to play (first songs I learned from my elder sister's friend were Paranoid and Smoke On The Water - didn't everyone my age???).

Mama I'm Coming Home choked me up.

On a side note, there were some lovely guitary moments - not least for me was the tone that the second GnR guitarist was getting from his Gretsch - made me want to run out and buy one.

Yeah - I made the mistake of asking someone "was that Izzy?", which tells you how outdated my GnR knowledge is...
