The Big Four at Yankee Stadium takes top honors in The Village Voice's "10 Best Live Shows of 2011" list. "Metalheads had their day at Yankee Stadium in September, when four thrash titans strutted their stuff in the outfield: Hometown heroes Anthrax were goofy and grateful; surly Megadeth roared through a set of crunching, virtuosic rock (not bad, given that lead singer/guitarist Dave Mustaine was suffering from a nasty neck condition); Slayer shook the rafters with light-speed, demonically inspired metal; and Metallica pulled out chestnuts from the almost 30-year-old Ride the Lightning to show that, Lou Reed collaboration or not, they could still hang with the greats."
