Anyone lucky enough to attend the performance caught a 4 Band onslaught of hard rocking ear piercing headbanging Rock and Roll. Chelsea Girls opened up the show with a powerful set of killer covers to the delight of the packed house. Nashville Pussy stepped up and blew the crowd away with their southern flavored distortion guitar rocking show. Next came the Psycho Rockabilly style of Reverend Horton Heat who definitely got the house rocking and the mosh pit moving. Finally, Motorhead took the well heated stage and proceeded to level the house with a set of classic tunes and some newer material including a surprise acoustic version of Whorehouse Blues. As the floor turned into a war zone with fans going off to the sounds of these legendary Road Warriors, MOTORHEAD bombed the crowd with intense Drums courtesy of Mikkey Dee, Shredding Guitar from Phil Campbell and full frontal assault Bass lines topped off with growling vocals only available from one Lemmy Kilmeister. This show was one for the history books!!

LiveFromThePit attended Metal Masters on August 30, 2008 at the Glen Helen Pavilion in Southern California. This show was the heaviest of Metal Shows yet to blaze accross the U.S. and featured Judas Priest, Heaven & Hell, Motorhead and Testament!!!
Metal Masters 8/30/08 Preliminary Review
It was a hot 95 degrees in Devore California as we pulled into the massive Glen Helen Pavilion and things would only get hotter. After checking out the venue and taking our seats, the venue began to shake as Metal Warriors Testamant took the stage. Testament brought it to So Cal with excellent energy, killer sound and a powerful performance. Immediately a Mosh Pit formed in front of the stage but the GA Lawn was absolutely going off the handle as Testament plowed through their set bringing classic tunes and new material from their latest album "The Formation of Damnation". The band was incredibly tight and the vocals were right on. Clearly the guys were having a blast on stage and the crowd was as well. The set ended all to soon as Testament left the stage with the audience screaming for more. We didn't have to wait long though because the next sound we heard was the blazing distortion of a vintage Rickenbacker Bass blasting from a huge wall of Marshall Stacks signaling the beginning of the Motorhead Set. Standby for additional reviews of Motorhead, Heaven and Hell, and Judas Priest with Photos
