Hey guys, I just saw METALLICA at the Allstate Arena (Chicago) last night and man, I am still jacked. These guys can perform for being "old".

This was my first time seeing them despite listening to them my whole life (minus St. Anger, wtf were they thinking?). Front row, completely jacked out of my mind. Birthday gift from the fiance....I knew I made the right choice proposing :thumbleft:

Anyone else see them yet or are going to see them while they are on tour for Death Magnetic?

This is as close of a smiley I could get for headbanging... :shaking:

If you are going to see them, get ready for a great performance!

Sounds like you had a great time. I don't really like Metallica myself, but it still sounds like an awesome experience.

I have seen Metallica 7 times in concert... last being in the early 90's with GNR in the Twin Cities.. best show I seen was in tiny Brown county arena in Green Bay of all places.. same tight crowd.. but they rocked that place.

Alpine Valley... seen them there a couple of times..

Black and after they went mainstream more.. glad you got to see them.. James can't sing like he used to I hear.. that is a shame.. he could belt the lyrics out in front of that intense pounding instruments and rips..

Wish I can tell you if Hetfield still had it but since this was my first time I can't...I'll tell you though, he sounded great. He can really get a crowd into his performance.
He actually cried at the end of the performance a bit if that means anything...I am pretty sure it was a good cry.
In the middle of a concert a fan held up a sign saying "CHICAGO LOVES METALLICA" and he asked the fan in between songs if he can have the sign. The fan gave it to him and he put it up on stage. He did not want to get off the stage at the end which was funny because he is playing here again tonight.
Great performance and great band...I wish them well in the future. I for sure wouldn't mind more Metallica music.

Not a big enough fan to go to the show but I do like some of their stuff. AC/DC is about the only band to actually get me to go to the concert.
I'm just not a big concert guy even though I love music

I'm glad you had a good time. I've never seen them live, personally, but they were my favorite band for a long time.

Until they turned into money grubbing douchebags, that is...

    dfosterf (1-May) : Not going to be shocked if Gilmore goes to the Lions.
    dfosterf (1-May) : I hear you dhazer, but my guess would be Gilmore Colts and Howard Vikings from what little has been reported.
    Mucky Tundra (30-Apr) : S learn from McKinney who learns from Hafley who learns from the fans. Guaranteed Super Bowl
    Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : could*
    Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Safeties should learn from Xavier.
