I believe their genesis is in baseball, so yes, an American thing.

Bought GA tix on the train out to see them. Said screw it. I’ll get tix somehow and under face!

was as close to rail as can be. 

Got Orion!!! Harvester of Sorrow and Battery. 3 I’ve not heard before!!!

new songs were great. Killed them. 

These are my first concert pics from a show I’ve attended. I’ve got setlists but never a pick so woohoo!

yeah. I’m going Sunday.

Surprised you have never got Battery or Harverster. They play them a lot. I think i need Orion still. Also they debuted Shadows Follow last night as well, so that's cool. How was Pantera?

Went back to see my previous set lists and I did get both Battery and Harvest… I guess it’s been a few years and I forgot, lol.  Orion was definitely a first.  I wanted that and Breadfan but it seems like they won’t play that.  Too few songs…

Because it was a last second decision I missed Zack and Pantera…. Heard them from outside the stadium though.

Five finger ass punch is up Sunday.  Meh.  I hope they do that bad company song though.  I like that cover.

Going back through my Metallica set lists, I've only heard Harverster once, battery a handful of times and yeah no Orion. I'm sure i've seen Breadfan at least once.

Didn't know Prong also was there, always liked them.

Shoot bud. Looks like a blast. Awesome.

OK.  Went back again to see the 2nd Metallica show.  Basically they split up a show into two shows now.  They just add another instrumental.

The 2nd show wasn't as exciting to me as the first.  The 2nd show was filled with a bunch of the bigger hits that I'm tired of listening to. For whom the bells toll, Ride the Lightning and Memory remains are not on my top list of songs I wanted to hear...

Sanitarium, Blackened and Whiplash were great.  Unforgiven, Hammett was on point with that solo.  It's actually my favorite solo he's done and to hear it played as well as they did, amazing.

Never thought I'd hear Ktulu.  I really wanted To Live is to Die but maybe next time around I'll hear that.  It was good but not the instrumental I was hoping for.

So the closing songs of Blackened, Whiskey, One and Sandman went awesome.  That's a fun way to end a show even if I'm sick of hearing Enter Sandman, lol.

Whiskey was another surprise.  Didn't think we'd get any covers.  Of all they do Bread Fan or Whiskey I Wanted to hear so this was awesome.

Show was a 9/10 for me.  They deliver every single night.   Song selection is the only reason it gets a 9.

Oh and we got to hear Murf da Smurf, lol.  Rob and Hammett made up the song about an hour before the show.

If anyone else was there did the drumming on One seem off?

nicknyr15

Did the drumming at a Metallica concert sound off? 😂😂😂. I’m only teasing. He gets so much shit from people that shitting on Lars has become so lame. 

I can’t believe you went to MetLife twice in 3 days. Good for you. I swore that place off in 2017. How was it getting in and out? Did you drive?

I know he gets shit but there are songs I literally know every damn note to and I heard missed beats. A part in One and Enter Sandman.  When you hear them thousands of times you know what it sounds like, lol.

For the most part he did great though.  

I took the choochoo in.  Easy as hell getting in and out of Jersey.  Penn, not so much.  They know how to move people out of there via mass transit.  Penn station gives no F’s about shows that happen there in the city, lol.

Had GA the 2nd night too.  Will post pics eventually.  Struck out on guitar picks.  I tried but they didn’t throw them in my direction.

Did not have a ticket going in.  Figured I’d get one closer to the show.  Prices went up instead of down.  Ended up buying a GA for face of TM just outside the venue on my phone.  I wasn’t worried about getting in as there were PLENTY of cheap seats available.

I'd go just to see Pantera And PRONG. Never seen Pantera....love that song Cemetery Gates. PRONG I've seen several times, the first was in small club in DC 92' The 9:30 Club. They weren't more than 200 people there, I had some friends that worked there and they let me in backstage and met the three members.  I must have a thing for 3 member bands, anyway they were so cool 😎 to spend time with me. I told them whenever and wherever I'm I'd try and promote them your more music 🎶 is too good not to. 

As for Metallica it's been some time since I've seen them so hopefully they'll head down south where I'd love to see them again.

That’s not Pantera. 

We All Believe

I was at both NJ shows.

Got there late on Friday, missed most of Wolfie, annoyed cause I wanted to see him play. No one plays like his dad, of course, but from what I've seen, Woflie can shred.

Funny, saw Zakk Wylde and was like "Why the hell is he here" lol, had no idea him and Charlie Benante were playing w/Pantera. Not into Pantera's music, no reason, but they were pretty good.

Skipped both bands on Sunday.

Metallica was fantastic, as expected. Friday was the better, tighter show IMO, even with Kirk messing up Nothing Else Matters.

@tempo_n_groove

You're right about Lars night 2, I heard the same missed beats you did.

Papa Het turned 60 that Thursday, Lars is 60 in December, and they can still bring the heavy. Amazing.

lastexitlondon

I've seen Lars miss beats quite frequently this tour on you tube. They sound tight otherwise. Lepah messiah from UK show is so heavy and the bass is so good

Prong huh?  When I heard Beg To Differ that was all I needed to not listen to them again…. I had friends that loved them.  Just couldn’t get into them.
