This past Friday night (September 7), the fourth annual Metal Masters clinic took place at The Gramercy in NYC. Featured “metal masters” included Slayer’s Kerry King and Dave Lombardo, Anthrax’s Scott Ian, Charlie Benante and Frank Bello, Down’s (ex-Pantera) Philip Anselmo, Mr. Big bassist Billy Sheehan and Exodus’ Gary Holt.
The night lacked any “surprise guests” like previous installments. However, the Metal Masters 4 did feature a killer setlist that included a handful of Slayer and Pantera classics, few Stormtroopers Of Death covers, and a rendition of Anthrax’s “Room For One More” (as sung by Bello). Plus, this technically counts as Benante’s first public performance since his recent run in with the law.
