What Would It Take to Get the Other 2 of the Big Four on a Boat?

There's going to be some heavy metal on a boat in October 2019, per this link - Megadeth Expand Lineup For Their Megacruise - and this picture:
I see 2 of the Big Four on this cruise: Megadeth & Anthrax.

I am just asking a question. How much $ would it take to get Slayer & Metallica on that cruise? I don't mean to ignite a 'who's a better?' band - because, clearly, I would vote Metallica. The reason this is being tossed around in my brain is because Dave Mustaine has publicly said he would like to do additional Big Four shows. Here's the perfect opportunity to do that. It's his cruise - he can have anyone he wants play . . . which leads to the question I asked above: how much $ would it take to get Slayer and Metallica to join the Megacruise?

New CoC & Newish Stryper

Corrosion of Conformity is a band I've always been aware of, but I've never dived deep into their material. I need to investigate their latest release, based upon this tune!


Back in August 2017, I jammed with Matthew (guitar) in 830 Studios (my basement). I came across the recording of that jam and heard the part of the jam when Matthew started playing Stryper's "Honestly" tune to which I responded, "Veto! The drummer gets one veto" after which we both laughed. I was aware that they had a recent album so I went looking and found this tune:


I was impressed by his vocals, but, frankly, I wanted to know if they could pull it off live so I found this video:


I like how their drummer has his kit rotated so that the bass drum isn’t facing the audience. I need to remember that kind of setup for when (not if) I join my Ideal Band! As of 4/20/2018 at 7:53 AM, I am still on the hunt for that Ideal Band.

Dumb DUmb DUMb DUMB Tour Schedule!

The tour dates for Black Label Society / Corrosion of Conformity / Eyehategod / Red Fang make no sense! After going east to Sauget, IL (D) , they then backtrack to Omaha, NE (E) before going back east to Chicago, IL (F). Someone needs a geography lesson....
Here is a text version of the tour dates:
  1. 12/27 Denver, CO @ Ogden Theatre
  2. 12/29 Sioux City, IA @ Anthem at Hard Rock Hotel &Casino
  3. 12/30 Kansas City, MO @ Uptown Theater
