Happy Thanksgiving from the Metalblog
The Metalblog would like to wish all of our American readers a happy Thanksgiving.
Every American knows the story of the first Thanksgiving. The Pilgrims had a good harvest and invited the Indians over and they all ate turkey and watched the Detroit Lions lose the early game on TV followed by the Dallas Cowboys, who the Indians of course hated due to the whole Cowboys and Indians rivalry.
The problem for the Metalblog is that eating turkey and watching football doesn’t make for good heavy metal songs. But we were able to find a live video for Iron Maiden’s “The Pilgrim” and the video for Anthrax’s “Indians”. So if you can imagine Iron Maiden and Anthrax getting together on the fourth Thursday in November, playing these songs, eating turkey, and watching football, you get a pretty good idea of what the first Thanksgiving was like.
Happy Thanksgiving everybody from the Metalblog!
