They needed to get back on the horse and ride again. The band is set to record a full show at an undisclosed location in the coming days. If you have not seen them live, just go to one gig. Metallica lined up a handful of major festival appearances that were to be their only performances of 2020. A blast of a concert! "We love Canada, we love you guys you're so nice and you always get us @#$!*&-up!" The most in-your-face opening of a Metallica gig I have ever witnessed.
Thumbs up for that!As for Metallica - James wasn't well.
(whiplash experience)Bar staff initially unaware of validity of drink tickets (VIP-bracelet)Understaffed bar and merchandise shop in lounge area.Lounge area cramped. My 16yr old is really into Avenged Sevenfold and was not disapointed. There are standards that they have to play, and you'll of course hear plenty of their big songs such as Enter Sandman and Master of Puppets. and eventhough i was really disappointed that Avenged Sevenfold could not be there;I can definitely agree with James Hetfield's statement that "Family always comes first" and I wish the Avenged Sevenfold all the luck with the baby! Your credit card will not be charged until the item has shipped. Metallica is the first rock band to partner with the Encore Drive-In Nights series. The night opened up with an intro of the Ecstasy of Gold followed by the title cut off of the band's latest effort Hard Wired to Self Destruct. Metallica by Request. But we got a free T-shirt, that was probably the unique thing for us.We where hoping for some live debut like Murder One, Spit Out The Bones but it did not happend.The song ManUnkind was performed tonight in Paris (10th September) and that is unique.Iceland has been waiting since 2004 for Metallica to come back to Iceland when they held the biggest indore concert in Reykjavík.
THE STAGE WAS FUCKIN SICK WITH ALL THE FIRE AND THE LASERS!!!! The mixing was off, with very little audible bass, and there were several songs where James' vocals were all but undetectable. All of the festival appearances ended up … I like the fact the guys walk around the stage from different angles so that no matter where you sit, you can take excellent photos of them; that I have to give credit for that they do think of the fans in that aspect. In front of thousands of fans. They were out to proove that they could do this, illness be damned! And that they did!From the opening of Hardwired it was clear they were here and they meant business! I REALLY REALLY HOPE TO SEE VOLBEAT AND METALLICA AGAIN VERY SOON!!!!! And Metallica fans... no reason to be such jerks. Factless criticism is just whining.So they battled on raising the roof with a feroscious rendition of Seek and Destroy and the most pummeling version of Battery I've ever heard. This was special.
Their ascent was to bas producing,etallicAIt was great from A to Z.
The special effects were beautiful and showed in my pictures with my camera. Saved the best song for last...Sandman....The sound system was excellent all around, no complaints. And as James asked for the crowds help in singing the lyrics, it didn't feel like all the other times he had done so. Cuts such as Welcome Home (Sanitarium), Creeping Death and the encore Enter Sandman in particular contained solos showcasing his seemingly boundless talent! Metallica delivers - every single f#$!ing time!Electrifying as ever with their incredible performance and stage presence, the members of Metallica delivered the goods and more last night with a nice cross section of numbers running the gamut of their colossal catalog! And while there have been tour breaks in Metallica’s history, stretches where the road was on a back burner, it is fair to say that nothing since September 8, 2019 could’ve been predicted. We want you to battle on. Get your tour dates seen by one billion fans: We saw many drons flying over the stage in Moth Into Flame, which was amazing!Fight Fire With Fire was in the encore faster than ever.Me and my friends walked away from Royal Arena in great mood with a big smile on our faces and with a hoarse throut, like James was in February.About the unique show as we where promised in February it was only UNIQUE for 2 days because Amsterdam got almost the same setlist. You simply can’t miss it!
