    They played Orion :eek:. What I wouldn't give to see that played live. That is one hell of a set list!

    thanks for sharing, these guys need to get off the road now, so that they can get back on as soon as possible....they've really outdone themselves with this tour, not that it compares to the touring they did at the start of the 90's

    It's amazing. This tour (not counting the preliminary dates) is two years on the go. I cannot believe that it is 19 months since I saw them at the 02 in London and 14 months since the Marlay Park gig. Death Magnetic has been a very useful reinvigoration of Metallica.

    Fear not, the well earned rest is coming. Lets hope we will see them in the near future !

    Apparently 2011 will see 10 gigs at various locations around the world in celebration of the band's 30th anniversary as a group. Probably will hold a concert, and film it, in Radio Studios in Anaheim....ask Diamond Head to open!

    The tour ends next month so i'm thinking (Hoping) that they make an announcement this year about these shows next summer.

    If only 10 gigs worldwide i think the closest we can hope for will be UK

    Popping my Metallica cherry tonight! :D

    They haven't done their own tour gig in Perth since 1998 and the whole city is buzzing for the two dates. Got my tickets back at the beginning of May and been hanging out for today ever since.

    The setlists from the tour have been awesome so far and once they play Fade to Black I'll be a happy man.

    However, Shakira's music would not have as much of an impact were it not for her abs, which moved with such independent precision that they seemed to ripple by an offstage remote control. If she had merely shimmied her way through her latest single, "Loca," in glow-in-the-dark Hammer pants, it would have been enough. Yet her belly dancing face-up from the floor to a standing position -- after covering Metallica's "Nothing Else Matters" to the accompaniment of a classical guitar and ukelele -- was a collective mind-blow.

    Stayed in the Quality Inn around the corner from Wembley myself. Good spot and all the boozers are only around the corner so it's a short stagger home.:D

    Wouldn't mind seeing them at Wembley again,that show in '07 was savage!

    Funny story from that gig, the day before was that 'Save the fcukin planet' gig, we go down to the hotel bar at around 3pm and order a coke each, then go to order some food, the manager told us that they were now closing as the police were using the restaurant to get fed.

    Totally not happy at this point, there's 4 of us, me, gf and 2 mates so i kick off big time.

    Manager relents and gives us a table for 4, 4 meals and 2 pints each for free. Told him it was ridiculous that they closed the bar off for the police.

    Went home, complained again to head office and got sent a full refund :D:D

    I suppose UK would be a definate anyway although they say they love dublin at each gig I've been to...:D

    I think the 10 gigs in 10 cities thing is to do with their 30th anniversary, which falls next year?

    Should be good fun? Hope Dublin gets a visit?

    Generally only one-off club shows for fan club members and the like have gotten away without Enter Sandman. The 2 DM launch shows in London and Berlin in 2008 had no ES in the set. No Nothing Else Matters either.:)

    Post from Metallica.com

    We know it's pretty nutty to announce a show almost a year in advance . . . certainly not something we've ever done before! However, when we were asked to headline the original Rock in Rio, the one actually in Rio de Janeiro (!!), we just couldn't say "no." After playing at other Rock in Rio festivals in Lisbon and Madrid years past, it seemed like it would make for a fun break from whatever (??!!) we might be doing a year from now. So we hope you'll dig up a 2011 calendar and mark off September 25, 2011 for a date with 'Tallica in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

    Tickets go on sale on November 19th, 2010 only at the Rock in Rio official website, RockInRio.com.br. Other points of sale will be available only after July, 1, 2011


    Doubt they'd only come off there holiday for 1 gig, possibly rules out any summer Euro festival appearances as this is in Sept, although Reading/Leeds is last weekend in August

    Fan Can VI is officially out, don't have the money for this (to be honest, the lack of a CD in this set really upsets me - would it have been that hard to have a demo collection or leave the tapes running on a recording day)

    One day I hope to get one at least:D

    I heard it was believed to be James son, but in true Hetfield family fashion, he neither stopped singing nor comforted the child after the song....it will make him more of a man in later life, and he may not thank James for it, but he'll certainly remember it!

    What happened to all their feelings for each other after St Anger

    Also, does anyone have a problem with the fact Metallica rarely swear live anymore? You couldn't stop James for years from swearing every five seconds, Live in Mexico is practically a blue album....I even have a document from a record company begging Metallica not to swear on stage, and Metallica telling them to **** off...now, either because he has children of his or others at every show or because he's "cleaned up" there's not a bad word spoken...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,382 ✭✭✭Motley Crue


    Just found this for the first time, but people have probably seen it for years! I wasn't aware there was any pro shot footage this close to when Jason left the band, with the exception of his 'Fade To Black' final performance at the VH1 Awards or something....anyone know why they taped this gig?



    Pretty big crowd as well, doesn't seem to have been an awards show performance either, seems more likely it was a concert in their schedule....watch Hetfield at the start of this song ala Kerry King:D

    Not really noticed the lack of swearing, doesn't bother me that much TBH, so long as they keep up with being the best live band on the planet i don't give a rats.

    A few Metallica 'bargains' i've seen around

    The 'Six feet down under EP' Aussie import on CD WOW for 15.99

    http://www.cdwow.ie/CD/metallica-six-feet-down-under-ep/dp/15620673#bc=f24b

    The big four BLU-RAY at £19.99 & Live at Nimes BLURAY for £12.99 at hmv

    I'm a bit stuck on this, it's not that I want to hear an artist swear every 5 minutes and think it's cool and all that - if I did, I'd listen to Rap music, but the problem is that the lack of swearing has also seemed to take away the lack of aggression. Sure, they play their instruments well and the songs sound great, but you look at them and wonder if they're still as into it as they used to be.

    If Metallica ever break up, I could see it happening through boredom, or (just like the Beatles) because there was nothing left to be done....and because Lars and James have a massive falling out of course lol

    For example, Creeping Death in Woodstock in 94


    Creeping Death in 2010


    General observations are that Rob does his thing (but you sort of want Jason's energy back), Kirk is still a little bit into it and moving about, but James sort of stands still and plays everything with a little less energy. Lars doesn't seem as focused behind the kit as he used to be.

    On a happier topic though, what do you think will happen next year, will Metallica perform the entire Black album live? Will the 30th Anniversary concerts take on a life of their own?
