Metallica at Wembley
« on: July 09, 2007, 04:57:57 PM »
BEST SHOW EVER!!

Gotta go work soon so will some it up in a few words.
Waited for years to get into Wembley stadium finally did and then they locked the gold circle as soon as we got there even though there was plenty more space so wembley staff are gay, though we were at the front of the railings just after the gold cicle so we could see everything.

Mastodon - started at 4.30 i think, didn't care for them much, guitars wern't loud enough, meh.

Machine Head - YEAH!!! got the crowd going played loads of cool shite though only played for 40 minutes, circle pits and everything going on. A granny managed to get herself into a mosh pit in Machine head and had to be taken out :lol:

HIM - Booed, bottled, anything you could throw at them got thrown at them, though they didn't take the hint to go away and played their full 40 minute set, why they were at a Metallica concert and were the band before Metallica i don't know, but it was funny as people started doing YMCA dances infront of them to annoy them haha. Though the guitarist used Laney amps :D

Metallica - AWESOME!!!! Great with the crowd, tone was great even though it sounded pretty cr@ppy before, though couldn't see their amps as they had a cool stage set up and couldn't put them on it. Pyro flashes, fireworks, awesome playing definatley stepped it uip a knotch, many people went out on strechers or wheelchairs due to be crushed!
Got a $%&#ing amazing setlist (in no order):

Whiplah
The Four Horsemen
Seek and Destroy
Creeping Death
For Whom the Bell Tolls
Fade To Black
Master of Puppets
Battery
Disposable Heroes
Orion
AND JUSTICE FOR ALL!!!
One
Enter Sandman
Sad But True
The Unforgiven
Nothing Else Matters
The Memory Remains
NO LEAF CLOVER (wow i believe only ever played before on the S&M album which is was written for! James said it was just for Wembley :D)

Took years to get out of Wembley, police on horses everywhere, though getting lots of abuse hearled a them :p

All in all the best gig i have ever been to, great stadium!!

Yep, absolutely amazing, their whole show made mastodon and machine head look like 7 year olds playing kitchen utensils in their gradmas front room (sincere apologies to any 7 year olds reading this - keep practicing and maybe you could also rock as much as 'tallica)!

The sound for metallica was awesome could really hear hammet's solos and it all fitted in so well, the bass was not overpowering and hetfield was loving it. True showmen.

Sad but true, made it for me, but ALL of the songs evoked so many memories.

Wembley was not bad either! :lol

The only downer is I ate something dodgy there and have had pretty bad food posioning today. Dodgy $%&#ing hot-dogs...  :evil:

He is cool, better than most boring bass players who just stand there and do nothing. He is also an awesome bassist and does bass solos on most shows :D
