the sight of a bunch of russian military police personel enveloping the crowd made me sad, but when i saw some people in the crowd raise a giant american flag, i cried tears of joy.

He sings so effortlessly here. It just seems to easy for him to sound that awesome. To bad his voice got messed up after the black album but it happens to alot of singers.
@510Gavin. I used to look forward to my husband working the nightshift so I could watch HeadBangers Ball and I remember the hype and seeing One on there too.
On the 15th October 2011 will be the 30 year anniversary of Metallica forming. This band comprised of mere men no different then you and me, have graced this land with music in its purest form for 30 glorious years. We owe them the honor of having the worlds most viewed video on Youtube! A title one little idiot doesnt deserve. Up until/on the 15th October 2011, all metalheads are required to watch Enter Sandman live at Moscow! POST EVERYWHERE
the wall comes down, and what was one of the first things form the western world to hit Russia ? Metallica. i think we made one HELL OF AN IMPRESSION !!!!!!!!!
"Largest crowd ever in a Monsters of Rock Festival, with estimates of 1.6 million people, considered as one of the most attended rock concerts in history."
@22greve 100,000? 1.7 million, there wasn't space to mosh especially with army guidance. And yes, it has EVERYTHING to do with being a pansy, it's easy to avoid mosh pits, pansy's to the back.
Greatest hair band of all time. But 1.6 million is a bit optimistic. The Russian Bureau of Culture's official attendance estimate was 62,000. CBS News estimated 84,600.
@hailbot666 I call bullshit on those numbers. Pause the video and look at the crowd. I've seen 60K+ at sporting events and this crowd is huge compared to those.
If I had just watched this without knowing the history behind it, I would of felt nothing. But now that I know the history behind this, it's even more amazing. Everyone should have the freedom to listen to whatever they want.
Metallica at their best would be before this piece of crap song and the piece of crap album it was on were released. Justice is one of the best albums of all time, the black album is trash.
@mglasgows Black was their only consistently good album. Yeah sure And Justice For All and Master of Puppets had some fucking amazing songs, but it doesn't help that the rest of the albums were shit.
Yep. This was the last Metallica album I ever bought. I went and saw this tour when they were in the USA. I used to be a huge fan. Then they had to go and sue and threaten their fans. I'll never give them another dime.
And what happens when they hit the harder songs from '91 and earlier? Master of Puppets? Blackened? Battery? Motorbreath? Ride the Lightning? Fight fire with fire? (Just to name a few.)
By Reddit user OhMyGodTheresASni, adapted by me to fit a youtube comment:
This wasn't just a concert. This was the first open, free concert In Russia in 70 years, Before that, all foreign music was banned. There were smuggled recordings, but they were were rare and expensive, and only high-level party members could go to foreign music concerts. This one was a first breath of freedom for the 1.6 million people that attended.
@Tretso BIlly Joel played Moscow in 1986, and what about the Moscow Music Peace Festival in 1989? There's a kernel of truth in what you're saying but I doubt a Metallica concert was the "First breath of freedom" that these people had ever experienced, nice story though. Kind of like the one about Ronald Reagan single-handedly felling the Berlin Wall.
