Possibly one of the most remarkable pieces of concert footage I've ever seen. Watching James's pre-show rituals is fascinating. No amount of business gurus or universities or seminars can teach this. This is why Metallica have been on top for nearly forty years. Their music is still relevant. Old songs or new songs... the crowd reaction says it all. And i bet Morricone never got a bigger reaction to his music than from the Metallica faithful.
The pre-show ritual should have been the title of this video. We've all heard For Whom plenty of times and this version didn't do it any different, but the pre-show was cool as hell. The fist bumps with his techs was so cool to see, plus the cigar, mate and sanitizer lol.
I don't see how it's that special. He smokes, drinks, interacts with crowd for 10 seconds, tests guitar, then heads on stage. What is there to really teach by a business guru, university, or seminar?
With young fans who keep adding. That's when they see that they have really left their mark on one generation and will do so with another! I’m from that new generation, I’m 27 my dad 56 (an OG fan, because of him I love Metallica and we are going together) 🤘🏻
Non solo quello, ma tutti quelli in cui suonano. Li seguo da quando avevo 13 anni,ora ne ho 54 e secondo me rimangono i migliori assieme a black Sabbath e AC/DC
It's amazing how close they are to a superstar. He's done this probably 1,000 times. The whole thing is pretty mind-blowing they'll be get to see this. Excellent video thank you
Superstar ? What's that ? The fella makes music from which started out as a hobby and ended up paying for a lavish lifestyle. Trust me fella, he still takes a shit and a piss like you and I.
ACDC another f****** great band in this world seen them so many times they never disappoint you and guess John without him there is no ACDC rest in peace Bon Scott ACDC is unbelievable live
Ive seen Metallica 6 times..everytime i hear those horns during ACDC is a feeling like none other..its very hard to put into words. My eyes just start watering and my heart rases with happiness and get all the goosebumps and feelings. It very well might be the most mind blowing part of the whole show for me. I cannot wait till next year when they make their way up north to Foxboro!
Watching this, even before they start playing, James seems like a legit cool dude. Here is is getting ready, not backstage, but right out in front of the fans. He stops and starts shaking hands with the fans and having fun with them, but the thing that got me was how cool he was with his guitar tech. Standing there talking with him, looking him right in the eyes and giving him a fist bump which I'm sure they do before every gig, He just seems like a genuine dude.
I am so grateful and lucky that I have live almost my entire life listening to Metallica music. These guys and this band is no doubt one of the greatest! Legends! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🔥🔥🔥🔥
They are losers. They think they are a boy band. They put the stage in the CENTER. wtf. And hardwired to self destruct is the cheesiest title I’ve ever heard. Their name is Metallica. lol. That alone is goofy. And st anger is the worst album ever.
This band doesn't have a bad song! They all Rock in their own way! This is another one of my favorites! Great drum rhythm! Metallica Rules the hard metal bands!❤❤❤❤🇺🇸🇺🇸😎✌
Excuse me. But he looks like his own imposter. Like a trailer park grandpa you wouldn't let your children play with. His last five years are awful, visually.
@@icepl4net Just compare the pictures. That's not 'trolling' stating plain truth. Metallica became the parody Lars feared to become in SKOM movie. They play with 'the click' live, they use multiple intros, they slow down too much and the can't play their own repertoire anymore. As icing on the cake Het looks more like a Rob Halford fan than like himself. Congrats if you can ignore all that. I saw them too often to be able to.
but really.....Who the fuck cares... You are analyzing and thinking to much... If you hate them so much why are you here ? They are humans like the rest of us. @@Geiermeier
Awesome, so jealous of the lucky people up close with James, a true moment that makes us remember for the rest of our lives. The best Metallica moment I had was being at the first ever Live playing of Spit Out The Bone, the song I wanted to see, the song they had never played and he song that I thought I would never see, and then there it was, like a dream.
I love that he still gets super hyped up for the shows. This man has been doing this precise thing for a generation yet clearly absolutely adores the fans and shows. I wish he could keep rocking until the end of time
I dunno he looks pretty “here we go again “ to me. Keith Richards said he normally doesn’t want to do a show, isn’t wanting to come out, and then gets marginally into it once it starts. Fruciante Hates concerts. Where are you getting all this Joy vibe ? Projection
@@dougcameron6609 I’ve been a fan of theirs for 15 years and have gone to many of their shows. I’ve watched tons of interviews with Hetfield, and briefly met him in 2017 at a show in Atlanta. He’s always amazing. At concerts he’s high energy, emotional, and a great performer. In person he is gracious, kind, and genuine. Not sure where you’re getting this idea of him hating concerts, seems like YOU’RE projecting
You realize that everyone of them is in stage mode as soon as they leave their dressing room, do you? This is already putting on a show. And, yes, you can clearly see that 'Well, I need to look hyped. That' s part of the job'-part. But be happy if it worked on you. It's like children watching a magician. They want to believe, too.
Metallica is a great band but without their road crew guitar techs drum techs pyro and lighting techs and so on. Let’s raise a glass to thank the Road Crew for the hard work they do to bring these shows to your Hometown.
My first song, Master of Puppets, I heard back in October 1986 in my friends RX7 cruising back in high school. Blew my mind. Can't believe 38 years later and still listening to them.
Bin neidisch im positiven Sinne :). Das muss ein Erlebnis sein, dass man nie wieder vergisst und James scheint einfach so down to Earth zu sein, ein ganz normaler Mensch. Klasse.
Bin da anderer Meinung. Ich finde es braucht keine zwei Konzerte. Die Preise sind dementsprechend hoch... Ich weiß ja nicht wie es euch geht, aber in der heutigen Zeit muss man den Cent öfters rumdrehen. Sie haben ein Album rausgebracht, das meiner Meinung nach eines der schlechteren ist. Solche Ticket-preise zu verkaufen und danach erst dieses Album rauszubringen ist einfach purer Größenwahn und zeigt wie sehr Metallica sich auf ihre Fans verlassen kann im negativen Sinne. Ich bin selber ein Fan und habe meine ganz persönliche Verbindung zu Metallica, aber was sie gerade abziehen geht unter keine Kuhhaut. Ich seh z.b in den Videos wie James jetzt immer eine Raucht ( womöglich weil er gerade was neues braucht ) und die Fans in der ersten Reihe zünden mit ihm eine Zigare an. Kann ja jeder tun was er will, aber es zeigt wie sie ihm nachmachen und einfach alles geil finden das Metallica tut. Metallica sollte wieder auf den Boden der Tatsachen kommen und die Fans sollten nicht solche Speichellecker sein wie jetzt gerade.
@@frankbaeuerle2226 Du meinst die 2-3 Leute von den 57000 die eine Zigarre angesteckt bekommen haben? Wer sagt, dass diese Leute nicht schon immer Zigarre geraucht haben? Der Altersschnitt ist bei Metallica Fans eher älter und ich denke die wissen schon was gut und schlecht für sie ist🤷🏼
@@frankbaeuerle2226 Bei dem Album stimm ich dir zu, auch bei den saftigen Preisen aber nicht beim Thema Zigarre. Das sind mMn mündige Erwachsene die das selbst entscheiden. James zwingt denen ja nicht die Ziggi in den Hals.
I can't even imagine the stress of trying to do your job as a guitar tech while having the audience literally breathing down your neck screaming. Chad can barely even see what's going on with James from where he's standing. I think they will drop this stage design pretty quickly.
I think its great they hang out with fans/audience before each show prior to going on that massive stage. They are the biggest metal band of our age and respect to them for doing so good (fyi im 51 years old and a metalhead since age 12 when dio released Last In Line,1984).
Que inceible banda, es muy grande todo lo que se mueve detras los increibles ingenieros de sonido para que todo este perfecto y suene de lo mejor todo el respaldo detras de ellos
King Hetfield at his coolest and finest moment...everytime i hear those horns during ACDC is a feeling like none other..its very hard to put into words. My eyes just start watering and my heart rases with happiness and get all the goosebumps and feelings. It very well might be the most mind blowing part of the whole show for me. What an amazing shot of footage. I cannot wait till next year when they make their way up north to Foxboro!
Metallica es una leyenda viviente y un gran ejemplo de perseverancia, disciplina y esfuerzo, y bueno, también tuvieron todas las condiciones para adquirir conocimiento y combinarlo con todos los recursos, son admirables...
Ich war bei dem Konzert dabei. Die Jungs liefern einfach ab! Das ist der Unterschied von Metal Bands im Vergleich zu Pop Bands: Pop Stars fahren in abgedunkelten Limousinen in die Venues und wieder raus. Metal Stars haben Kontakt zu ihren Fans 🤘und, meine subjektive Erfahrung, Metal Fans sind die entspanntesten Menschen, denen ich bisher begegnet bin! Keep rockin'
Thanks for this footage! I'll never be able to see them live, but at least this vid feels like I'm there! Though i guess it is 10 times better being there in person
James is as authentic as they come and that's why there is such a hardcore connection between him and all of us. He has been consistent for decades - and can still absolutely crush it on stage - !!!
I love metallica shows because they never talk politics, right vs left or any other bullshit and just put on a great show and treat all their fans the same. There is a great atmosphere at their shows where a liberals and conservatives can be as one united under the love for the music.
amazing to believe we were all 15-16 yrs old with our skateboards and our friends dad's beer probably listening to these guys in cassette over and over and over again, reading magazines, always awaiting the new albums to come out.
surreal, felt like a climax of a movie just by watching on youtube, i wonder what it'd feel like watching them live and more than that how it'b be to be them
The stage is a circle and he has 4(?) Drum kits spread across the the stage and he switches between them during the show. The ones he isn't using are hidden in rising platforms under stage ready to go up to the stage when he 's going to play on them . At any given time during the show only the kit he is playing is up on the stage the others are hidden. In this case he's in the drum kit directly on the opposite side of the stage. it's that yellow spot you can see on stage on the other side
Been watching this a few times now, and I have to say the interactions between Hetfield, the guitar roadie, his 'personal' roadie and his body guard are really interesting.. Thought I’d do a timeline on their interactions.. @0:35 Hetfield arrives @0:38 Hetfield's 'personal' roadie puts down Hetfield's drinks @0:40 Hetfield greets his guitar roadie @0:45 Hetfield has a look around his little gaff on top the travel chest @0:49 Hetfield has a word with his guitar roadie where is his hand wipes? @0:52 Guitar roadie has a look for some in the drawer @0:55 Hetfield asks personal roadie if he has any hand wipes @0:58 The perosnal roadie says no @1:00 Personal roadie tells Hetfield he’ll ‘get you some’.. @1:02 (look closely) Guitar roadie shakes his head [forgot to bring/put out any hand wipes] whilst still looking in the open drawer @1:03 (look closely) Hetfield mutters something negative under his breath at the guitar roadie [for forgetting the wipes] LOL @1:05 Before [Hetfield] recomposing himself and going over to greet some of the crowd @1:13 Guitar roadie has a hand wipe standing by.. @1:35 Sound roadie approaches Hetfield to work on his ‘guitar transmitter’ @1:38 Hetfield’s personal bodyguard approaches sound roadie to make sure he knows he’s in ‘restricted air space’ @1:44 Sound roadie works on Hetfield’s guitar transmitter @more or less throughout: Guitar roadie has been tuning Hetfield’s guitar @2:04 Guitar roadie [off camera asks/gestures?] Hetfield’s personal bodyguard if it’s ok to approach Hetfield with the guitar? @2:05 (look closely) Hetfield’s personal body guard nods to say its ok @2:32 Personal roadie comes back with hand lotion [shaking his head and smiling!? - Noticed by Hetfield whilst facing the crowd (look closely at Hetfield's eyes)] @2:45 Personal roadie offers Hetfield some hand lotion [Hetfield thanks roadie] @3:16 Hetfield fists personal bodyguard and says 'Have a good show mate' @ 3:44 Hetfield says to guitar roadie '.....watching me live.' (not sure what he says before) @3:49 Hetfield tests the sound. 45 - 50k people can hear that wow @5:03 Hetfield bows to guitar roadie whilst climbing the stage steps [sorry for the hand wipe 'issue'?] My own personal view guitar roadie should have had the hand wipes ready, not a lot to ask really.
The real story of the video. Thanks for getting to the bottom of the big questions. James is a weird dude for sure. You forgot 1:41 spits on the ground
He cleans his hands each time he touches fans. Smart, working at the Hospital really taught me the importance of clean hands. Wash them so damn much lol

Packing the stadium and still bringing it!
Rarified air of artists that can do that. Rolling Stones, Elton John, Billy Joel, Judas Priest, Iron Maiden

My favorite Metallica song of all time, and they have a catalog of classics.
A true Metal band that gives their all to their fans.
4:25 so much knowledge and experience and he still gets stage fright before the performance ❤
Maybe that's the secret to his lightning-fast downpicking :o
Bullshit stage fright..... He was just playing up to his fans. Nothing wrong with that.
Even ozzy admited he gets stage fright everysingle time he walks on stage.....
Special thanks to that huge guy that keeps our metal god safe

Thats cool mate
This is absolutely Epic! Seeing Master Het's preshow prep!

Look at all the Hamburgers!
Thank you for showing this. 👍
You are really lucky was there so close to James. Priceless moments of life!

Never thought of Bellz as an openerer but it makes total sence now that I see this. It gets the audience involved right away.
Awesome back stage pass!
Thank you, great to see James just before stage.
Only the intro with no music , James and crew doing their staff is even more metal and art than the whole modern music industry
Love the cigars James ! Keep torching the magnificent stoogie !! Smoke em !
King James still got that crowd in the palm of his hand.... the feels when that Morricone music starts, just wow.
luv this, thank you so much for sharing it, and I luv that guy wishing James a great show, very cool think to say
Yes, doing what they absolute love, and makin money, big!!!
Que grande James tomando mate. Una joya el video.
Good band, probably make it big one day
I think they have, theve got garage days albums.

Thank you to Germany for always showing metal bands of any origin the best time! Incredible hosts.
Kein Problem man
Guitar tech standing there holding the guitar till James is damn well ready lmfao. I take that job lol.
Thanks for sharing! I was almost in the same spot yesterday at Gothenburg!
Where do they put Lars, under the stage?
I saw Lars in one of them floatin cilinders at 6.01...🤷♂️🤷♂️😮
The stage is a circle and he has 4(?) Drum kits spread across the the stage and he switches between them during the show.
The ones he isn't using are hidden in rising platforms under stage ready to go up to the stage when he 's going to play on them . At any given time during the show only the kit he is playing is up on the stage the others are hidden.
In this case he's in the drum kit directly on the opposite side of the stage. it's that yellow spot you can see on stage on the other side
Lars is the stage @_@
Where the trolls go...

Been watching this a few times now, and I have to say the interactions between Hetfield, the guitar roadie, his 'personal' roadie and his body guard are really interesting.. Thought I’d do a timeline on their interactions..
@0:35 Hetfield arrives
@0:38 Hetfield's 'personal' roadie puts down Hetfield's drinks
@0:40 Hetfield greets his guitar roadie
@0:45 Hetfield has a look around his little gaff on top the travel chest
@0:49 Hetfield has a word with his guitar roadie where is his hand wipes?
@0:52 Guitar roadie has a look for some in the drawer
@0:55 Hetfield asks personal roadie if he has any hand wipes
@0:58 The perosnal roadie says no
@1:00 Personal roadie tells Hetfield he’ll ‘get you some’..
@1:02 (look closely) Guitar roadie shakes his head [forgot to bring/put out any hand wipes] whilst still looking in the open drawer
@1:03 (look closely) Hetfield mutters something negative under his breath at the guitar roadie [for forgetting the wipes] LOL
@1:05 Before [Hetfield] recomposing himself and going over to greet some of the crowd
@1:13 Guitar roadie has a hand wipe standing by..
@1:35 Sound roadie approaches Hetfield to work on his ‘guitar transmitter’
@1:38 Hetfield’s personal bodyguard approaches sound roadie to make sure he knows he’s in ‘restricted air space’
@1:44 Sound roadie works on Hetfield’s guitar transmitter
@more or less throughout: Guitar roadie has been tuning Hetfield’s guitar
@2:04 Guitar roadie [off camera asks/gestures?] Hetfield’s personal bodyguard if it’s ok to approach Hetfield with the guitar?
@2:05 (look closely) Hetfield’s personal body guard nods to say its ok
@2:32 Personal roadie comes back with hand lotion [shaking his head and smiling!? - Noticed by Hetfield whilst facing the crowd (look closely at Hetfield's eyes)]
@2:45 Personal roadie offers Hetfield some hand lotion [Hetfield thanks roadie]
@3:16 Hetfield fists personal bodyguard and says 'Have a good show mate'
@ 3:44 Hetfield says to guitar roadie '.....watching me live.' (not sure what he says before)
@3:49 Hetfield tests the sound. 45 - 50k people can hear that wow
@5:03 Hetfield bows to guitar roadie whilst climbing the stage steps [sorry for the hand wipe 'issue'?]
My own personal view guitar roadie should have had the hand wipes ready, not a lot to ask really.
you must have been really bored,lol
The real story of the video. Thanks for getting to the bottom of the big questions. James is a weird dude for sure. You forgot 1:41 spits on the ground
Love James 🧡
He cleans his hands each time he touches fans.
Smart, working at the Hospital really taught me the importance of clean hands. Wash them so damn much lol
Wasn't Metallica coronas witnesses? Like the Foo Fighters?
well he is from california
Also can you imagine how much money they would lose if he loses his voice from the flu
I've seen them live 374 times 104 times back stage they are the GOAT
4:25 miles de conciertos y todavía siente nervios...éso es un artista!
Überragendes Video! James einfach nur cool!😎
i love how James sanitized his hands immediately after high-fiving the crowd and his assistant was right there with it.
Those fans hands were holding something in restrooms a moment before, so sterilization of the palms after them is a must.
getting sick on a tour aint no fun
És grande james. Ja vi algumas vezes metálica e é sempre um prazer ver metálica 🤟🤟
Interesting perspective - backstage and front of house at the same time!
хороший кадр. я был на концерте в москве 2019. это нельзя забыть
@@BeavisoPaulaner завтра иду на кипелова. тоже хороший вариант
1:27🤣🤣🤣 What a Legend...
Great footage! Thanks from the States
