Good song. However, I liked Harvester of Sorrow from the same concert.

I wonder where 1.6 million people drop a deuce.

One of the most energetic bands I have seen. Good stuff.

I was there! You can even see me waving in this picture. I’m the one in the black t-shirt.
Okay, not really.

the only band I saw 12 times. Earliest was 88 when I was kid but my uncle was security and let us thru. That same uncle was arrested years before for trying to burn the Niagara in 84 or 86 when Metallica showed up in a 1000 seat place and more than 5000 showed up. He was just an innocent bystander (cough)

I'm a busy person and I don't have time to sit through some ponderous six minute video. Can somebody here post a brief summary so I can get on with my busy and very important life?Your wish is my command. Here you go:
- 31 years ago Metallica played in front of 1.6 million people
- The American rock band gave a concert in a country that would soon cease to exist.
- There were helicopters!
- Toilet facilities were insufficient to meet bodily needs.
- 35 million YouTube views

I never tire of the performance of that song in the context of that crowd.

Funny, I have been watching this recently. I was never a Metallica fan. Never got this song when it was popular back then. Only realized recently it recites my childhood prayer. But this is probably the most epic performance in the 20th century. These Soviet Russians relate to this unbelievably. Iconic.
