MetallicA is still the BEST!!!
By CynChicago from Chicago, Illinois on 1/29/2009
Pros:
Crowd Was In To It, Engaging Stage Presence, Great Encores, Great Lighting, Great Opening Acts, Great Sound
Cons:
Too Short
Best For:
Adults, Kids
We purchased GREAT seats from TicketsNow, I was a bit nervous and my fears turned into pure joy when we got to Allstate Arena, the seats we incredible!
No matter where you sat, the band Rotated and went to various different mic hookups so every seat was in fact a 'good' seat.
The opening bands sound was not as good as MetallicAs; I attribute that to the soundman (KUDOS to 'TallicA's!!)
MetallicA did an awesome mix of songs from Death Magnetic and threw in some oldies but goodies! We were all head banging and rocking, James Hetfield had everyone into it, the bands energy was palatable!! We were blessed with 3 encores!! NOBODY wanted to leave!! I saw new 'TallicAites' as young as six, I kid you not!! I took my daughter, her first 'live' taste of them, she is 14 and LOVED it!!
Each member was even better than they ever were, the power and energy and incredible mastery of playing their instruments!!
They say they will try to be back before 5 years! Sure hope that is right, I can't wait to see them again!!
YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPOINTED!!
Love you MetallicA <3 \mm/ !!
