Nah james has been sober for a while now. He put his family, musci in priorities 1st. They used to be called "alcholica" because of the massive boozing. The St. Anger album basically was about Metallica's trials. That is why they are so "tight" now.
Chris Rock is one of my favorite all time standups and Metallica is one of my favorite all time bands but they really couldve chosen a better time for him to come out and introduce the band...like before EoG maybe
in any case goddamn I wish I had been at this 'roo, totally epic that they chose Metallica to headline, Mastodon for Bonnaroo 2011!!
@marcelino481 ,just an acdc song played over the speakers,i think metallica usually use it in outdoor concerts before they are due to come on. i know they used it in donington England when i was there, then ecstasy of gold..yeah :)
@vanvilder , I totally agree with you.For anyone to come on stage and introduce the band during probably the most intense and magic moment of the show was just....fucked up
@vanvilder Me and my two best friends were front row, fifteen feet away from James, Kirk, Lars, and Rob. We drove 13 hours from Michigan waited in line from about 7 a.m., and had the time of our lives. There was NOTHING on earth could have kill our rock boners. And if you did lose your rockrection it would have come back real quick! I hear ya though, I could've gone without anyone introducing Metallica, but until I read this comment I had never thought twice about having Chris Rock up there.
@vanvilder I was there - Chris Rock did an hour of stand up before they went on. Before he started Lars and Kirk introduced him, so more or less he was returning the favor. It made sense and I didn't care.

its awesome that metallic played bonnaroo, wish i was there, itd be sick to see Iron Maiden or Children of Bodom or Megadeth or Mastodon or Lamb of God play 'roo, I would totally go to that
why do you morons have a problem with chris rock.....i'd like to know the REAL reason why you didn't like the choice..........man, you people are very critical, must be a ball to hang out with you.
fuck, they still play fucking fast. and all that down-picking!!! can't belive they have the stamina for it. I play this song once, and I feel like I've been jerking off for a week in a row :p
i had the same problem, but after a while you work up the endurance and stamina. I worked up most of mine on master of puppets, just play that song alot and youll be straight.
chris rock performed a comedy set before metallica's set that year at bonnaroo. lars and kirk introduced chris rock for his set then chris rock introduced metallica for there set... best metallica set i have ever seen great show
I love how from 7:44 to 8:00 Kirk makes every guitar player who's ever walked the earth his bitches with that wicked guitar playing, that is my favorite part of the song!
hell yeah this show was amazing man good festival fuck the people saying they dont belong at bonnaroo, bonnaroo is about jam bands yes but fuck it mayne its 2009 bitches bring all good music
Not for nuttin, but I'm a huge jamband fan...Hell 2 of my favorite bands are the Grateful Dead and Phish, but guess who I'm going to see on the 12th of November...that's Metalli-fucking-ca!!!! They absolutely belong at Bonnaroo!!! Bonnaroo is all about diversity in music and bringing all types of fans together so they can show each other the good in all types of music....Vm & \m/
metallica belongs on every damn type of concert there is! i dont care if its the biggest gay country music or rap concert in the world. metallica should play it and always headline because they are that good!
Die by my hand I creep across the land Killing first born man Die by my hand I creep across the land Killing first born man I Rule the midnight air the destroyer Born I shall soon be there, deadly mass I Creep the steps and flood final darkness Blood Lambs blood painted door, I shall pass
okay....im black so keep the jokes to urself. i dont know why met used him but if they did then they did, it was a year ago cant do shit about it now, how about next time you guys go to metallica and tell them personally not to use him BUT i bet they wont listen.
i saw them last night in san rafeal for the first time and they had the Ecstasy of Gold as the intro and then Creeping death out of nowhere, right when the lights came on it was so amazing to see them. espesially kirk..he was all over the fucking place with his Dracula guitar!!! Metallica forever!!
Chris Rock is awesome, one of the best modern standup comedians, if you little metallica fans got some sand up your vaginas, I suggest you get rid of em and chill the fuck out. Godamn, you dont need to defend Metallica like its a sports team. Im a metallica fan too, but I got a sense of humour.
are you guys retarded or something? Chris Rock says "Give It Up For Metallica" theres just a glitch in the video/audio at that part. i watched this live stream and i know thats what he says. its pretty obvious thats what he says even with the glitch.
@ Grimeyhoob: You are 100% correct. Rob is great and all but when Jason screams "YOU MOTHER FUCKER!!" it is awesome. And who let Chris Rock talk during one of the greatest opening songs in music???
You little kids, its Chris Rock hes a standup comedian, stop taking everything so seriously. 'Oh Chris Rock hurt my little metallifeelings, where is St Happiness when you need him'
Shut the fuck up, who cares what Chris Rock said, hes a kickass standup anyway.
I was there... pretty close too next to that white flag wavin in the crowd... i thought the whole show sounded great... except when they blew the PA system on Seek and Destroy
Look at those losers standing up high on the stage just standing there not even rocking out. Get them the fuck out of there and get some people up there that would actually appreciate it.
Fuck yes! I was there and Metallica owned that crowd. Definately one of the funnest shows I've ever attended and if you don't think those Bonnaroo people weren't into it, take a closer look. I heard later that there was several accounts of people fucking during this set! Awesome!!
i was there ! i'm a dead head AND a METAL head!!it was my 3rd bonnaroo and i take the whole family. i've seen mettalica back in the early 80's thru till now.i was in the front pit on the right side and the whole family agreed mettalica was awesome and where i was the crowd was insane!!
You know, all of these music fests boast the "diversity" of the bands and fans yet Bonnaroo was the 1st one to ever have metal bands play, let alone headline. Lollapalooza did it first but as the years have gone on even they haven't had any heavy bands until last years w/ NIN & RATM. I give props to Bonnaroo for having the guts to have Mettalica and Mastadon on. And as far as the hippies go, life isn't all puppies and rainbows. Deal. The rest of us do.
Crowd wasn't into it? Are u fukin nuts? Look at the crowd during the die chorus. Also "so fukin what" the quality wasn't the best on video but Metallica rocked that BITCH!
Kirk was on point this whole gig, as with Rock Am Ring. Lars is even getting less lazy with his drumming. I last saw them live in 2004, so this gives me a LOT of hope.
This is a really underrated show. James sounds great in this.
