I was there that night and when he started talking about a song he thought they never played live before, I leaned over to my buddy and said, "What if they played Dyer's Eve?!" When they kicked into it, I flipped my shit.
@@johnnyutah482 It's hilarious that people act as if Seattle '89 was the only gig on that tour. Great show? Yes, but so was pretty much every other gig that Metallica played on that tour.
This is the only song where I actually excuse Lars for not playing the double bass exactly like the studio version because it's JUST FREAKING IMPOSSIBLE. This version sounds pretty neat to me.
5:06 I would add the riff after the solo from "The struggle within" from Metallica - The black album" as "one of the most epic and "headbangers" from them. It's just amazing"
I was at this show when I was 11. Holy fuck, it was literally the best night of of my life. I was the only ones out of all my friends to say I got to see Metallica live. Obviously, years later, they’ve all seem ‘em now, too. But that night, with my brother and dad, just three metal heads enjoying a badass show, will forever live in my memory.
Mad props to James to adlib the parts he forgot. That's how a true professional does it. When I saw them at U.S. Bank stadium in Minneapolis in 2016 they played Leper Messiah and he completely forgot to sing the wichery weakening... part. Then like 5 songs later he goes "I think I forgot to sing a part of Leper Messiah" and they proceeded to do just that part of the song over again. I thought he did it on purpose to let the crowd sing (which I was of course). It was an epic save. I wish I knew how to edit videos and I would paste that part over it so it sounded like he actually sang it. It was still a bad ass amazing show.
I can’t even imagine the feeling of going to Metallica show and suddenly realizing you’re among the first to hear this song live. That’ll stick with you for life.
@@passive_pestilence3025 verses are actually pretty easy though, it's just whole power chord notes, that comes only to chorus and breakdown, and even so, they play Battery and whatnot, which is *much* harder to perform, yet they do
Haha James is actually the weak link here, wasn't expecting that. Lars and Kirk are right there. Rob, I don't even need to mention, never missed a beat in his entire life. Anyway, this sounds insane 10/10
James forgot a lot of words and wasn’t able to play a lot of the riffs when singing. Kirk nailed everything. Rob was killing it it Lars was missing most of the double bass
We played it live in front of Lars and Kirk at the Metallibash in SF in 2001. After the show Lars said "You laid the gauntlet down, now we have to play it." 3 years later, I guess they did!
My bluegrass band played it at the Metallibash in Nutbush Tennessee in 2002 and Lars said "Well DANG, ya'll sumbitches done it better than whatever they were called in San Francisco last year. Now I guess I gotta make good on muh promise!" Looks like the done it!
@@CraftonBarnes Side note, we did not play Dyer's Eve for them in 2001, so you're FOS and you know it. LOL. But thanks for the laugh. Your "bluegrass" band couldn't touch our band with a 5000ft pole. We WERE the best tribute band on the planet, hands down. Did Lars and Kirk play with you on stage? No?! Of course they didn't. Bluegrass music makes most people want to puke.
Aside from being a hard song for everyone, it’s only popular amongst the hardcore fans and the personal lyrics might make James less inclined to play it.
I was there that night at The Forum. When James started talking about a song they hadn't played in 100 years, we had no idea what was about to happen. Then Dyers Eve started. We looked at each other and said "Holy $h!t" we couldn't believe it. It gives me chills to watch this video. Thank you for posting this 🤘🏽
This song is so freaking hard to play, so I understand that they can’t play it live all the time. And the solo is freaking insane. I’ve tried learning it and it’s insanely hard. But Kirk absolutely nailed this solo. My favorite song from Justice.🤘🏻
Javier Di Maio Yeaxh, I know. It's just funny how much hate Lars got for St. Anger and here his kit sounds really good. Makes me wonder what they sounded like overall in that era...
This song is underrated - so fast, so raw, so brutal and so awesome - it has to be coming from experience, you can't fake this. One thing that I love about Metallica is that they are so talented and so passionate about the Metal Militia and their craft. I started loving Metal in 1992 when I picked up Justice. As a side note, IE# generational - My daughter is 6 and she really loves Metallica. "James has a nice smile but his voice can be so rough or nice" she says. Shes a little kid, and in kindergarten I guess they learn about fast and slow music. She just calls Metallica's music "really fast". Unrelated - Her favorite songs are Master of Puppets and Disposal Heroes.... So - that's what a VERY new set of ears and eyes thinks is the best work. I can't make this up. I love these guys and I just can't thank them enough for putting out excellent thrash metal since day 1. So many tours, so much effort, so much passion about this art form - and I love it.
Witnessed this band on the original AJFA tour in Minot, ND at the old Minot Municipal Auditorium, June 7, 1989. The Cult opened for them on this leg of their tour. I travelled from my hometown of Bismarck in my best friends 1970s Dodge Dart and this was the song we hoped they played from their "new" album. Unfortunately, they didn't play it, but the concert was still unreal. During the whole concert I remember thinking the building would come crumbling down on us. I will never forget it...
Just listen to Lars play in Toronto in 1986. He was at his best there and could have easily done Dyers Eve and he still had the chops in '89 so who knows they didn't. The also never played Frayed ends and only played Eye a few times.
Carajo que es esto? Una cancion o una bomba atomica? Esta fue la primera vez que la tocaron en vivo, la escuche con audifonos y me volo la cabeza, despues de tres decadas de haberla escuchado por primera vez me sigue emocionando y poniendo los pelos de punta

That's sick! Never seen Metallica live

I would have lost my fucking mind
and we all hate you for that ¿)
I imagine the situation like that video where people see the trailer announcement for Super Smash Bros.
Imagine this song being played in Seattle 1989.
You realize that tour was not just played in Seatle....lol
@@johnnyutah482 It's hilarious that people act as if Seattle '89 was the only gig on that tour. Great show? Yes, but so was pretty much every other gig that Metallica played on that tour.
@@johnnyutah482 and @Jason M well, because that show is the definitive Metallica concert!
Jason M its just because it was one of the only professionally recorded
Saw them twice that tour....and yes I understand they recordrd a show from Seatle..
Larsism rule #6 - double bass is optional
daddy
I wouldn't care if they just overdubbed the double bass over the playing, as if he didn't even really play those parts. Would still sound really good
This is the only song where I actually excuse Lars for not playing the double bass exactly like the studio version because it's JUST FREAKING IMPOSSIBLE. This version sounds pretty neat to me.
@@pedroprestes6340 Josh did it ^^^
I`m aware of that but I`m talking about Lars
The ultimate "we should have played this song in the Jason era" song.
I think that goes to frayed ends of sanity, but this is a very close second.
@@vinyl9337 still not the full song,they played it entirely in 2014
As well as To Live Is Too Die, in its entirety.
russkate88 in 2011
@@Wolfoe-ex2jj they did play that in the Jason era, in fact only in 88 and 89
The riff after the solo is one of the most epic and "headbangers" from them. It's just amazing
That riff and the riff after the master of puppets solo I think are some of the heaviest riffs ever.
@@ricosalvaje5802 definitely! Puppetz post solo riff is the heaviest Metallica riff ever written. It sounds so evil
Agreed I always thought it was one of their best forgotten about riffs.
Hey great avatar right there.. 😂

I gotta give props to Greg Fidelman for this new audio mix, man. Sounds way better than the standard LiveMetallica soundboards of the time.
Word. Not a fan of his production work, but damn does he know how to get a great sound.
Yea I remember watching this couple years ago and the audio was bad
metfan4l We should be grateful it was Greg who mixed the audio, and not Rick Rubin
Definitely! I can't wait to hear Seattle '89 remixed by Greg Fidelman!
Rick Rubin never mixed anything he's just the guy that sits there and gives advice. I don't even know if he can competently work a mixing board.
"This is a song we haven't played in 100 years" LOL
That's why he forgot the lyrics...😂
Still relevant
Drunken Skulls I think Hetfield might have had a brain fart and forgot the lyrics
He says that sometimes for shortest straw too lol.
Dyers Eve has to wait 16 years
Considering how this is one of the most kickass songs of Metallica, it's a crime how rarely they play this live.
I agree. I think they should play it more live even if Lars can't do the DB
Yes, Dyers Eve is an awesome song. It is technically challenging musically and kind of long. So maybe it just got put on the back burner
@@randyrazor6780 its one of their shortest songs.
@@ the average metallica song is 6-7 minutes long just saying. Dyers eve is just over 5 minutes
It's a crime this wasn't played in their prime.
This happened because of Rob, thanks Rob!
Really?
Yes, he's the one who suggested they should play it.
@@BirdsElopeWithTheSun09 sweet
Yeah he really pushed them to change up the set list on this tour

Was mine too! :D

Coz Lars can do it
Vino BRO 😂😂
Of all their great songs, this still ranks in the top for me. Such an under appreciated surprise from Justice.
Its the black sheep of the album. Has a very punk/hardcore feel. Is F'ING pissed off.
After being neglected for decades, Kirk nailed the solos. Awesome work.
How perfect was everything...drums, vocals, the solo...I wish I was there!
Apart from James forgetting the words
@@jochencooper2751 lol
I think James “forgot” the lyrics because of how much this song hits so close to home with him.Probably would’ve been a bit of a pain to sing
Nah probably because this whole song destroys the wrist and singing while playing it would be fuckin ungodly

In my top 3, depending on the day it’s number 1.
Probably the most underrated song from AJFA
Semtex 2 no, after eye of the beholder
It’s always been recognized as one of the best from the album, not underrated. NPR played it once!
@@H.E.M. it's not that long
8 out of 9 songs from an album are underrated, jesus

Surprisingly good audio for such an old clip
The best song !
Thank you! I was at this concert at the forum. Brings me back to Junior High.
They *slayed* that! Perfect performance!
Love that they played this during the St Anger days.
late 2021.... replaying Kirk's solo 100000000 times. this song is timeless.
Underrated song even by the band. It should be in the setlist in this current tour
I saw them playing this one In 2009. They also played Holier Than Thou and Leper Messiaj so it was kind of a rare setlist.
one of all time favourites
I was there for this! I initially joked that they were just teasing us by playing the beginning of Dyers Eve, but then they played the whole song!!! 🤘
Fracking amazing!
I love being born in the same life as METALLICA!!!!!!!
This song & lyrics are pure Gold. They should play it every fucking night
I love dyers eve n damage inc n struggle within
its song rarely done live！
And Metal Militia
I was at this show! Godsmack openned up
Thankyou so much Robert Trujillo for suggesting to bring this song that everybody loves to life again, live!
Played 35 times only.
Imagine being lucky enough to experience that even twice.
🤘🏻
Awesome version Guitar and drumwise!
That was killer. Seen them live 6 times and never heard them play this .
I will continue to go to metallica shows till i see this song live

That was insanley tight for lars. Like to the 1000th of a beat he was on. Insane man.
We'll probably have to wait another 100 years to see them playing live this again
If this was played during Damage Justice or even Wherever We May Roam tour it would have been off the charts.
Thank you Metallica for this GIFT! Thank you!
Wow the sound here is KILLER. Great performance too. Damn.
If only they played this during the justice tour. Would have been legendary.
Hearing this song live is worth the admission, alone.
When Metallica posts a new video I instant like it
Its so sad how this didnt get played for so long. This is basically my favorite song from Metallica, hands down
The riff after Kirk's solo is damn near perfection
So much better when they play the intro live - wish they'd still do it that way
Everyone's pretty great here, but is no one gonna talk about how rob plays the basslines like this with fucking fingers for 2 HR shows?
