The last time I saw Metallica was at the fabulous Great Western Forum back in '96.
10 years passed, I got another opportunity to catch the best Metal band in the world at the Olympic Stadium in Seoul, Korea during my business trip. What a coincidence that my customer is also a Metallica worshipper....The easiest business deal ever
Although they are not the same "til life no leather" Metallica they once were...Lars can't double bass 4 times per second on "ONE", and Kirk can't flow every frets on "Creeping Death", which is understandable as they have grown old. With that been said, they still put on a kick-butt show for the Die Hard Metalheads.
I was very impressed by the massive turnout (around 20,000 Metalheads), and it reminded me Metallica only sold about 100 copies of Master of Puppets when it first released in Taiwan back in 1986
For a night, I felt I am 19 years old again!!!
Here is the song list...not in particular order:
Seek and Destroy
Creeping Death
For Whom the Bell Tolls
Fade to Black
Battery
Master of Puppet
Sanitarium
Orion
Harvester of Sorrow
One
Enter Sandman
Wherever I may roam
Sad but True
Nothing else matters
Fuel
Frantic
and one new song for the next album!
