A couple days ago we mentioned that there was a rumor circulating that Metallica might headline Heavy Montreal 2014, formerly Heavy MTL. Today, with the release of the official lineup, it’s confirmed that the biggest of the Big 4 will headline the annual festival in Montreal, Canada. In fact, according to the official HeavyMontreal.com website, this will be Metallica’s only appearance in North America this summer.
See the full lineup listed below.
Wait, why am I saying the biggest of the Big 4? Before you get as excited as a sex addict in a strip joint, not all of the members of the Big 4 will be there, but Slayer and Anthrax will be. Three out of four ain’t bad, but I’d still really love to see Megadeth there.
Of note, Heavy Montreal will be adding a fourth stage this year, with a promise to bring even more heavy metal variety to the fest. Also, the wrestling show, Heavy Mania, was such a hit last year that it’s back for another round in 2014.
