We didn't even see the four of them all together at the same time, you only watch one of them (who's ever turn it is on our section of the stage).

      Totally agree, back then there weren't people standing around filming the band on their phones, people were just totally lost in the music which is how it should be. Take a photo then put your phones away people. Enjoy the moment. The band will appreciate it too. They want to look out from the stage and see people having a great time, not standing round. Enjoy and mosh till you drop. And I hope they play Orion ❤ when I see them in June 🤘🤘🤘🤘

    I'm tired of all the Lars hate. He has my respect just for the fact it's 40+ years after the band started and he is still playing huge sets with heavy songs. It isn't identical to the recording; who would want that anyways? But he still serves the songs and does them justice. It's rock n roll at its finest. Tbh, w Lars, I think a lot of the elitists just don't want to admit that it takes more than being technically precise on an instrument to write a good fucking song.

    Hard to imagine that people would rather watch the best show of your life through a phone screen screen when it’s right in front of you to be seen through the magic of eyesight.
    When someone is visually impaired and sees only shades of black it makes it even more sad…
    Id give anything for my sister to see her mother or her beautiful black Labrador who is her eyes and best friend or just the leaves fall from a tree on an autumn day
    Thankyou Metallica

      Si en el resto del mundo no saltan, si no es Argentina o Chile el público está muerto.

    I had a great evening and this was the perfect start. Too bad that most of the evening the solo's by Kirk couldn't be heared.
