Megadeth - Hammerstein Ballroom 04.22.08

(cred and more pix)

When a friend offered me a free Megadeth ticket for their first of two nights at the Hammerstein Ballroom as headliners on the Gigantour, I didn't have to think long before accepting.  I had wanted to catch Dave Mustane and company for a long time.  Also, one of my three older brothers is a HUGE metal head and would probably kick my ass had I turned it down.  It was....everything I thought it would be.  Big, loud, and a spectacle for the eyes - we were in the Mezz and able to see the massive mosh pits going on the entire hour and half set.  Maybe it was the buttload of Guitar Hero 2 I played but my favorite Megadeth classic from the show was "Hangar 18."
