New shit in my collection #7


Time for new tickets. We start with the oldest.

First ticket is from a concert in Nashville (Nashville Municipal Auditorium) of July 27’ 1986. A day earlier, James breaking his arm skateboarding and concert, which was to be held in Evansville (Indiana), has been canceled. Since Nashville show until September, Hetfield just sang and Metallica played as a five member band with John Marshall from Metal Church as a second guitarist.

 

In December 1988 the band promoted the newly released album ... And Justice For All . This is one of my favorite periods in the history of Metallica. The ticket, which is below comes from this period and was to be held in Phoenix (Arizona ) at Memorial Coliseum December 4’ 1988 . Just look at the setlist from Phoenix . I wish now the setlist like this at current concerts.

Blackened
For Whom The Bell Tolls
Sanitarium
Leper Messiah
Harvester Of Sorrow
Eye Of The Beholder
Master Of Puppets
One
Seek & Destroy
And Justice For All
Creeping Death
Fade To Black
Battery
Last Caress
Am I Evil
Whiplash
Breadfan
 
 

During the American leg of tour after The Black Album, Metallica quite often played concerts in the same place for two or even three evenings in a row. In early January 1992, they played three nights in a row in Los Angeles. The ticket comes from a second (January 8 ' 1992) from three concerts at The Great Western Forum.

 

The ticket from Summer Shit Tour '94. On this Tour Metallica was supported, by Danzig and Suicidal Tendencies. During the last show on tour in Chicago at the World Music Theatre (July 7’94) Metallica invited guests on stage and played with them the last three songs in the setlist. The Last Caress and Green Hell with Glenn Danzig on vocals (BTW.. the author of these songs) and So What with musicians Suicidal Tendencies. Was it the first time when Rob Trujillo, at that time bass player of Suicidal played for the first time together with Metallica?.

 

A similar situation as with above ticket from 1992. Metallica played three nights in the row at the Rosemont Horizon Arena in Chicago. The ticket came from the second concert February 8, 1997.

 

The last ticket today is my first ticket from 2014. Metallica just ended South American leg of By Request Tour. The ticket comes from a second concert that took place in Buenos Aires (Argentina) on 29 March 2014. Many thanks as always to Piotr and Kasia for this ticket. If someone has a ticket from the first concert in Buenos or other South American concerts of the By Request tour please let me know.
