THANK YOU, IRVINE! GOOD NIGHT!!!
May 17, 2008
The boys just walked off stage after pummelling Orange County with 90 minutes of metal. Considering this was a radio show, I gotta say, it was mighty fucking awesome that they busted out So What. Also... a nice shout out to Brian Slagel from Metal Blade before Seek. Hetfield's right... without him, there'd be no Metallica.<br><br>...and off to Europe they go. Personally, I can't wait for the US tour this fall. Bring it on! It can't come quick enough.
Ash To Ash

Hot Already!
May 17, 2008
Hopefully you guys got to see the setlist last night. I was not sure if it was posted cuz the internets was so slow! Anyways, crew is now here at Verizon Wireless Amphitheater (or as I like to call it, Irvine Meadows) setting up. And boy is it hot already! It's going to be a toasty day! Pics from last night are being uploaded right now.
Crazy Muthas!
May 16, 2008
Tucson has some crazy muther fuckers out there! I think I saw more shoes in the front of the stage than Nike Town! Another great set put on by the Tallica boys. Setlist is up, pics to come!
BATTERY GO!
May 16, 2008
The internet has been spotty here, so let me get this quick update in before it goes down again. So far, the band has ripped out Creep, Fuel, Bells, Unforgiven, Justice, Sad, Memory, Fade, Puppetz, and Battery just ended. Next up, Roam!
Some Kind of Meet And Greet
May 16, 2008
All four band members came out at once to meet with Fan Clubbers, Mission Metallica winners, radio winners, and some soliders right back from Iraq. Scars are on stage right now, and the band is going thru their pre-show rituals.
Wiltern Vid is up!
May 16, 2008
Video from the Wiltern show is now up. Check it out... Doors are set to open in an hour, with the first band Chiodos going on at 4.
Hi Tucson, Metallica is here!
May 16, 2008
Can you feel the excitement in the air? Metallica returns to Tucson for the 5th time today. Crew has been here for almost 3 hours setting up. A couple pics from this morning are up. Working on a video from the Wiltern, should have that up later today.
Thank you Flea!
May 14, 2008
"Ok, on this song, we have a Flea, and a Tarantula." That's right, Flea came out to join the boys in a rambunctious version of Figt Fire With Fire. Setlist is up, pics to come!
