    ^that must have been awesome!!!

    They had added another night to Nassau Coliseum and I went that night.  Had "taper section".  I begged to borrow a camcorder but no one was giving it up... Bastards.

    Ended up trading our tix to a couple on the floor.  We pushed up until we were 10 rows away maybe?  Close enough to see the sweat pour off them!

    I am still waiting to hear Breadfan live...  That is my white whale song.
    It was crazy.  Here's the set from that night... notice the closer.  https://www.setlist.fm/setlist/metallica/1993/lee-civic-centre-fort-myers-fl-23d6d8f7.html 

    Outside all the shit from Black, it was a helluva set.  I'm pretty sure I was exhausted by the end.  I remember you would get in the mix on the floor, mosh around for 20 or 30 minutes and then exit to the concourse for a break.  The moment you were back on the floor, it was anarchy.  But that was concerts in the early 90's, as you well know.  
  • 17 dollars for the Metallica film feels a bit too expensive for me.

    13 Euro for 150 minutes. Sounds normal?!

    15 here. 

    I usually pay 9 euros, regardless of length :)

    or I guess 12 without my supertickets from my job

    You are from Germany. You must have some kind of benefits portal/program thingy from your job also? :)

    Are you watching movies with or without German dubbing though? :O

    So I should shell out the 16 dollarinoz and by a ticket then?

    Ha, for public transport, yes! Not for cinema though 😉
    the cinema I always go to only shows movies in their original (English) language. No subtitles. On TV it’s all dubbed in German of course.
    yes, do it! Otherwise we won’t be able to talk about it afterwards!!

    Are we bound out of obligation? Is that all we've got?

    Obligation? No! A shared joy is no obligation, it’s a gift!

    It’s awesome that Metallica has started realeasing full concerts for streaming through the Nugs app. Started with July 6 show.

    Is there a nugs app for the PC?  I'm kind of stuck trying to watch the Metallica videos on my phone which is kind of annoying.  For some reason the web portal doesn't let you view videos (or not that I've figured out).   I guess they didn't make a PC App :(

    Do "screen mirroring" from your phone and watch on your TV.

    Seems the big cinema chain will be showing the movie also. Which means I can use my cinematickets bought through my job and go for 9.25 euros and wil get better audio :))

    listened to And Justice For All today for the first time in a while.. WOW!  I have to say, their first 5 albums rival any first five of any band all time..

    Justice is great.  I love how political it was.

    Yeah, the themes of Justice are the only thing that make me waffle between it and Master for my favorite album. Both are pretty damn flawless though. Blackened is their best album opener in my opinion. Beast of a song and then to roll in to Justice; perfect.

    Yes, Master >>> Justice >>> Blackened >>> Battery
