See ZAKK WYLDE and DREAM THEATER's JOHN PETRUCCI shred together for first time

Dueling guitarists ripped Black Label Society song to pieces in Fort Lauderdale

Over the weekend, Dream Theater guitarist John Petrucci hosted the fourth edition of his annual Guitar Universe convention in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, and the prog wizard was joined by a very special guest during one of the retreat's performances. 

For the first time ever, Black Label Society/Pantera axman Zakk Wylde joined Petrucci onstage so the two guitar gods could shred together like nobody's business. 

The pair linked up during a performance of the Black Label Society classic "Suicide Messiah," which of course featured a stunning duel-solo in the middle where Wylde and Petrucci took turns ripping the bluesy chord progression to pieces. 

For heshers with a taste for the shreddier side of metal, this collaboration was a dream come true. Check out footage above via YouTube.
