    I would have liked a few less songs that they already played on the S&M, but I get it. I like that they played "All Within My Hands" and that this version really shows what a turd St. Anger was.
    haha, was just talking about this with a friend last night. pretty sure i'm the only person on planet earth that likes that record.

    Yup you probably are, even I didn't like it and I like experimentation. However, I understand many bands want to try something new, sometimes it works and many times it doesnt.

    I thought you meant Kill em All because of the anesthesia comment.  I was really confused there.

    I don't hate St. Anger, don't love it either. Probably my second least favorite album from them. I still can't really listen to ReLoad

    yeah, me either. just sounds like a bunch of throwaways from the load sessions. at the time i honestly liked it, but it didn't age well.

    Anyone watch the Live Stream tonight?  I thought it was really good and quite enjoyed it.   We did a double header with the Metallica webcast followed by the Foo Fighters webcast.  The Metallica one seem so well produced (ie sounded amazing).   The Foo Fighters one didn't sound nearly as good (and it ran a little short).   Metallica wins this day :)

    I will say, Metallica seems to run a tight machine.   From their fan club, to their merch, to their livestream.   It's a well oiled machine.

    I watched it, thought it was great. Loved that they played “Wasting my Hate”. It was cool to see all the fans on the wall watching and all proceeds for their  charity.

    Would be cool to see PJ do this same format for their Vitalogy Foundation, maybe Benaroya style.

    Metallica stream was great last night I thought.  Great setlist with deep cuts and reworked songs.  Loved the fan interaction as well, seemed like the band was really loving it.

    Finally got around to listening to S&M2. I was actually quite impressed. I didn't think I would be, but I enjoyed it quite a bit. Halo on Fire was solid and Master sounded especially solid. Probably helps I haven't listened to S&M in awhile so I didn't compare the 2 and the repeats. Also had no idea there were so many videos and live albums on Nugs that I can access with my regular subscription. Going to be watching some of those in the next few weeks.
    It's a hopeless situation...

    Black album turns 30 this year, I’m assuming they’ll do the big box set reissue that they’ve been doing for the other albums. Anybody hearing anything on this yet?
