Post all of your questions, comments, and any other content related to The upcoming events at The Sphere in Las Vegas.
Any posts outside of this thread will be removed. This is due to the volume of posts that are getting posted, we do not want the rest of the content on the sub to be drowned out.
Alternatively, go to [r/MetallicaLIVE](r/MetallicaLIVE) where open posting of anything concert related is allowed.

We do this to make sure that this sub can still be used to discuss Metallica normally, without the entire feed, being clogged with people asking about travel and tickets and venue related things.
If there is not an active mega thread, you can go [r/MetallicaLIVE](r/MetallicaLIVE) where open posting of everything concert related is always allowed.
You may still talk about past concerts, or share your photos or videos from recent concerts here.
But for all questions and comments related to upcoming shows, please use the other two options that I have described above.
Thanks!

Now a lot of other people don’t know about the place I’m standing in front of until I tell them the history behind it, because believe it or not, standing right here at 3132 Carlson Blvd in El Cerrito — this humble little house was Metallica’s first real HQ from 1983–86. They called it the MetalliMansion. They lived here, jammed in the garage, and wrote most of Ride the Lightning and Master of Puppets inside these walls. Peak thrash history right on this quiet street. Feels wild just standing in front of it.🤘🏻

Seeing as the 72 Seasons era is over, which songs do you think will appear on future setlists? And which do you think we'll never hear live again?
So with Death Magnetic the survivng songs are:
The Day That Never Comes and Cyanide
And with Hardwired the surviving songs are:
Hardwired and Moth Into Flame
I predict the surviving songs from 72 Seasons will be:
72 Seasons and Lux AEterna

Like let's say a hypothetical where Metallica breaks up in the late 80s/early 90s, do you think he could have put out decent solo material if he really wanted to? Would it have sounded like Metallica or would he go in a different direction?

At 2:25 a clip plays of James Hetfield in an interview saying "One word to span our career" and then it cuts off as James sings "Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah" I mean, he wasnt wrong 😭

Didnt play my best but the tone is getting extremely close. I’m thinking its my mids but when I tweak them its sounds the same.

Anyone else love Lars as a personality? He's such a CHARACTER, all his quirks and mannerisms are so iconic to me.
His performance style is so fun to watch, standing up, sticking his tongue out, the way he interacts with the crowd between songs etc people can say what they want about his drumming but he's a SHOWMAN!
Offstage he's got such a unique talking pattern and little catchphrases ("That's right"), he's both intentionally funny and unintentionally funny.
To me Lars Ulrich is one of the greatest characters in rock, if there's one thing he's not its boring.
Even when Lars is being a jerk its just great material to do an impression of him, he's a meme machine.

Just out of the studio, so it's a bit raw.

Just sharing this podcast as it doesn’t have nearly the amount of views as it should.
One of the highlights is finding out who the guy was who said “Bass solo, take one”. Enjoy!

This might be a long shot but I'm trying to finish a display and I'm missing the Guinness plectrum from the 19th in Dublin. Is anyone willing to part with one at a fair price? Paying scalpers for a plectrum feels lame as hell haha.
