THE BIG FOUR TOUR: METALLICA, SLAYER, MEGADETH, ANTHRAX DVD ANNOUNCED

- Artists
If you weren’t lucky enough to see the show in person, don’t worry, a DVD of the Metallica/Slayer/Megadeth/Anthrax show from Bulgaria is going to be released on October 15th. You COULD just get the standard DVD, but then you would be missing out on the sweet stuff included in the limited edition “super deluxe” version.
“The full shows from all four bands will be included in the two-disc set along with behind-the-scenes and interview footage. In addition to the two-DVD set and the corresponding Blu-ray, there will be a limited-edition “super deluxe” box set including the DVD set, five CDs with ALL the music, a 24-page booklet, a poster, photos of each band, and a “Big Four” guitar pick.”
The pick is definitely a collector’s item, and not just because it was done by yours truly. Finally, a rival to the “Pick of Destiny”, though no promises on whether this pick harnesses all the metal powers of the big 4.
So skip a few of those “super deluxe size” upgrades at Jack in the Box and KFC this week and preorder the super deluxe Big 4 DVD. You wont be sorry.
Thanks to Blabbermouth for the info, who has the whole track listing if you’re interested.

FACEBOOK FRIDAY GIVEAWAY: LUCKY13 GUITAR STRAPS
- Posted in
- Dunlop Straps
The guitar strap, it’s the unsung hero of the guitar world. It keeps your guitar in place while you push your lead singer back to his side of the tiny and crowded bar stage. It makes the perfect sling for when your slinging your guitar up and over your shoulder and out from under your side in a moment of true rockstardom. The only thing holding that precious guitar to you is that strap. Might as well have it look cool.
Enter our Lucky 13 straps.
“Lucky 13 was formed out of the inspiration of its surroundings- suburbanite youth on a mission to rebel. It was a counter culture of lowbrow hot rod art, fast music and tattoos. It celebrates everything uniquely American while embracing the individual in all of us.”
For this week’s Facebook Friday Giveaway we’re giving 6 Lucky 13 straps (shown) to 6 lucky people. All you have to do to enter is comment on the comment section below. Please adhere to the official rules section of our site.

“I have used the Q95 Wah for years. The sound is amazing and the Q has incredible features. No on/off switch – just press the pedal and you are on. This means – less dancing and more Metalling. I’ll be honest, I can’t play anything else. You can vary the EQ of the wah and you get a nice volume boost switch built in as well. I’m 100% sold on this pedal.” – Metal Mike Chlasciak

- Artists
Gary Morse is one of the most in-demand steel guitarists working in Nashville today, he has recorded and toured with country music’s most respected artists including: Suzy Bogguss, Highway 101, McBride and The Ride, Ricky Skaggs, Pam Tillis, Dwight Yoakam, Dierks Bentley, and most recently, Brooks & Dunn. Gary Morse was recently inducted into the Michigan Steel Guitar Hall Of Fame.
Now currently on tour with Brooks & Dunn, he dropped a few lines for us about the MXR Carbon Copy and Phase 90.
“The Carbon Copy is my very favorite delay pedal of all time! I use two of them for different time values. In fact I also use a Carbon Copy with my studio pedal board as well. Totally awesome and crystal clear delay. Super quiet too. The MXR Phase 90 is excellent as well. I am using both on the current Brooks & Dunn tour and am very pleased with the tone.” – Gary Morse
