Doing more searching as I’m new here. Love me some Metallica. Didn’t read this thread yet but I will shortly, got introduced to Metallica in middle school after the black album was released. Quickly I bought all the CD’s after discovering them. Waiting in a long line at Rolling Stone Records back in the 90’s when ReLoad was released for a limited edition sleeve that held Load/ReLoad as one.
When S&M was announced back in 99, my mom was living outside San Francisco and we tried to get me tickets to see it, but they were hard to come by.
been to many shows in Chicago. I even won tickets on 103.5 the blaze back in 2002 to a show and ended up winning the grand Prize to see Metallica in Detroit 4th of July weekend that year.
I got super lucky last year and was able to buy tickets to S&M2. It was epic being in the same building as Metallica and the symphony.
Yeah, it was expensive and yeah, we had nosebleed seats. Doesn’t matter, I was in the fucking building!
I have many tattoos, and I added to them with the S&M2 logo.
