METAL ALLEGIANCE To Pay Tribute To LEMMY KILMISTER, CLIFF BURTON At METAL MAYA Festival

RARE BLACK METAL COLLECTIBLES

Metal Maya has announced two special tribute sets by heavy metal all-star band METAL ALLEGIANCE. Metal Maya — a four-day all-inclusive heavy metal destination festival vacation from October 29 to November 2 at the luxurious Now Sapphire Riviera Cancun, just south of Cancun on Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula — features over a dozen bands, led by ANTHRAX, HATEBREED, OVERKILL and SUPERJOINT (with Philip Anselmo). In addition to the surprise guests and performances that METAL ALLEGIANCE are known for, their Metal Maya performances will include a pair of tribute sets celebrating two fallen legends: one set will pay homage to the life and story of Lemmy Kilmister of MOTÖRHEAD, and another will honor the one and only Cliff Burton of METALLICA. METAL ALLEGIANCE founder Mark Menghi says: "We couldn’t come to Mexico during Dia de los Muertos and not honor such a sacred event ourselves. Lemmy and Cliff were the first two to come to mind. They were both major influences in not only our lives and careers, but millions of others' as well. We played our first METAL ALLEGIANCE show on MOTÖRHEAD's Motörboat, and will be forever grateful to the man. These two were and will forever be legends. Metal Maya is in for some really killer moments!" METAL ALLEGIANCE guest performer Kyle Sanders of HELLYEAH adds: "Pretty damn honored and excited about joining my boys in METAL ALLEGIANCE down in Mexico for Metal Maya! Couldn't think of a better place for tacos and metal! Cheers!!" Metal Maya packages start at $1399 per person and are on sale now at www.MetalMaya.com.
