So I'm back in England now after 10 months living it up in Arizona and soon I'll post up something of a review of the year but in the mean time, a quick summary of the Metallica concert in Tucson on May 16th. In one word... awesome!
This was my second time seeing Metallica live (the last at Wembley Stadium in July 2007) so the gig had a lot to live up to. Whilst the arena was nothing compared to Wembley stadium (it was essentially just a field with rubbish parking arrangements), the band delivered another brilliant performance resulting in mass anticipation for their new album to be released in September. You can pretty much work out a Metallica concert set list but they threw in a few slightly unexpected surprises with Fuel and Where-ever I may Roam after opening with the classic and atmospheric Ecstasy of Gold and Creeping Death. All the classics followed including Bells, Memory Remains, Unforgiven, Master, Fade to Black and One before the usual awesome ending on Seek and Destroy. Photos will be up somewhere sometime but not exactly sure when.
One more post on this Arizona blog probably at the weekend - a summary and then thats it. Perhaps I'll open another one now I'm back in the UK, we'll see!
