    See where it says SEEK on the setlist and the right side says BALLS.  During that song they release these huge 8 foot inflatable balls with the Metallica 72  logos on it.  People punch them around the stadium.  Well i watched some gray ass old men wrestling for these things.

    It was quite the spectacle.

    It’s quite comical.

    Apparently people try to deflate them and steal them to take home. After the Tampa shows, I saw a lot of posts about them, both as souvenirs and resellers.

    I grew up listening to Thin Lizzy's killer version of this old Irish folk song, "Whiskey In The Jar".
    Metallica's take on this song over the years blows everybody else's away!

    To celebrate the launch of the channel, we’ll be hitting the stage next to the Stephen Talkhouse in Amagansett, NY, on Thursday, August 28

    ..

    Wow, tiny venue and the beaches in Amagansett are great for whale watching.


    And if Sir Paul is in town, hey you never know,  it's been done before on that tiny stage.
