Metallica 2014

[Sparticus]

By the looks of it their first fesitval of the year is in Finland on the 28th of May, probably get a decent idea of the setlist from that too. Although it's part of Sonisphere Europe so might cater more to a general metal audience.

The tour this year is "Metallica by request", so the ticket holders pick the songs to be played.

[Wooderson]

Anyone here see the figure of 8 tour in '96? Dudes on fire falling out of the rigging at the end? 4 light bulbs illuminating the entire venue for the encore? Incredible.

[CaledonianGonzo]

A viewing of Some Kind of Monster will get excitement levels running at fever pitch.

[JoeyT]

+1 for One.

I could listen to those opening chords all day long...

[radioahed]

One would just be incredible to hear so make that +2

Also From Whom the bell tolls for me, great bass riff to start off

[kbearne]

I would love to hear Orion.. No Leaf Clover too, I'm seeing them at Soni but seeing them at Glasto (my first Glasto) too would be amazing and I'm sure I'd love anything they played

[The Nal]

If they're on the Other Stage they could play whatever they wanted. I'd love to see them start with Battery.

[eFestivals]

what's this thread about?

Metallica would never play lower than main headliner.

[glimmers_of_hope]

Actually quite excited about the prospect of Metallica playing.

Missed them at Reading a few years ago but would give them a whirl if they clashed with The Eagles. Love the first 5 albums.

[russycarps]

hang on, 2 pages and noone has said they are shit yet??

metallica are shit. Music for 16 year olds going through puberty

[Monkismo]

Any of the below would suit me just fine:

Seek and Destroy

One

Sad But True

Orion

Four Horsemen

Fade to Black

The Thing That Should Not Be

Ain't My Bitch

Holier Than Thou

Wherever I May Roam

So What

They're an odd one, Metallica. I got into them through Black and Load and I wouldn't even consider listening to any other metal bands (I've tried, didn't like it) but they're one of my favourite bands ever and I've only ever seen them once (at Leeds in 2003) because I don't fancy any any metal festivals and won't pay over the odds to see them in some Godawful arena. A Glasto slot would be totally unexpected and utterly brilliant as far as I'm concerned.

Never change russy.

Sometimes the world needs a bit of brutal truth.

More of a Slayer man?

[The Nal]

More of a Slayer man?

Russy never got over the firing of Dave Mustaine.

[CaledonianGonzo]

If it's not Dimmu Borgir then he's just not interested.

[The 38 year old virgin]

Never change russy.

The Cunning Stunts dvd, yeah, absolutely epic, started the set with "So What" !! Ive seen them three times, absolutely amazing every time so Im so excited about the thought of Metallica at Glasto.

[russycarps]

I'm buying a black tshirt at dinner time. If I wear it every day from now until their performance I should just about be able to fit in with the crowd

Haha love it, what a legend

[FloorFiller]

god i hope this happens. and if it does, that they play Battery! both times i've seen them they didn't play it and i was pissed. actually, if they play more than half of Master Of Puppets like they've been doing a lot lately, that'd be swell. Battery, Master Of Puppets, Welcome Home (Sanitarium), Disposable Heroes. yes!

[Wooderson]

Nick Cave is great but Metallica are shit?

Haha

[willutalk]

An hour and a half of Metallica hits on other and then to Arcadia and Shangri La. What a perfect night at Glasters that'd be. \m/\m/
