World Magnetic
Last night Metallica played in Northern Ireland for the first time since Antrim Forum in 1988, and what a show it was. In the round meant great views for everyone. Lasers at the start, fire in the middle, beach balls at the end. They played a great range of tracks, old and new. There were some surprise songs that I wasn’t expecting to hear, but glad they played, like Welcome Home (Sanitarium), and Creeping Death.
Great night had, and much better than when I saw them at the RDS in 2004. I am slightly jealous of those going to the second night in Belfast tonight, I want to go again!
I was there for night #2.. Pretty awesome.. I especially loved how the crowd seemed to miss the point that the beach balls were for bashing around not hitting straight onto the stage lol.. I don’t know where you were, but I could feel the pyros from the upper stand.. And yea.. The laser’s were pretty cool.. Great show.. Highlight for me.. Memory Remains just for the singalong
To give you an idea where I was, the photos above were taken on my iPhone… so I was pretty close, they didn’t play Memory Remains on Tuesday, the 2 sets were fairly different. You had Fuel, Memory etc, we had For Whom the Bell Tolls, Sanitarium, Fade to Black, and some others…
