Megadeth and Slayer are joining forces for the American Carnage Tour.

Megadeth and Slayer camps just announced “The American Carnage Tour” for early 2010.

From the Press Release: (Megadeth.com | Slayer.net)

“American Carnage” is the first time that Slayer and Megadeth will have toured the U.S. together since 1991’s epic “Clash of the Titans” tour. To celebrate that and in recognition of the tough economic times that many of their fans are having, Megadeth and Slayer have decided to roll back the price of a chunk of tickets at every U.S. show to the “1991 price” of $10.00. These specially-priced tickets will be limited and when they’re gone, they’re gone. Megadeth has also teamed with iloveallaccess.com to provide an Ultimate Fan Package including premium seats, meet and greets, pre-show parties and more.

In addition, Testament – who was also on the “Clash of the Titans” bill, will be Special Guests on the entire tour, marking the first time that all three bands have shared a stage together in more than 18 years, and making this a “must see” metal event.

Dave Mustaine: “Big Four Tour; a once in a lifetime opportunity.”

I don’t really know what Dave Mustaine is really thinking, but I’m hoping to see the “Big Four Tour” becoming a reality. Dave McRobb (Megadeth.com Webmaster and Overlord) posted Mustaine’s October 21st, 2009 post on Megadeth.com homepage.

Paraphrasing Mustaine: “Big Four Tour; a once in a lifetime opportunity.”

Does this mean Mustaine is open to the idea having Megadeth, Metallica, Slayer and Anthrax touring together?

I certainly hope so.

Well, the ticket price is likely to be on the expensive side.

Let the rumor fly!

Let them know that the Fans want this “Big Four Tour” to happen!

p.s. Why is Slayer the only band without the .com domain? Previously a company with name “Seven Layer” was using the domain name.
