Metallica
I'm always looking forward to getting back out on the road

Why see Metallica?
m72 tour 2025
Thrash metal monsters Metallica are shaking things up on the M72 tour where they'll be playing two back-to-back electrifying concerts on each stop.
Among their many metal classics are 'Enter Sandman', 'Nothing Else Matters' and 'Master of Puppets'. While fans might expect to hear the hits at every night, the band promises something new for the M72 tour; no two nights will be the same!
Formed in 1981 by James Hetfield and Lars Ulrich, Metallica have been stalwarts of the American metal scene ever since, breaking through into the mainstream with the double whammy of ...And Justice For All (1988) and their self-titled eponymous fifth album (1991).
With support from Pantera, Five Finger Death Punch, Ice Nine Kills, Suicide Silence and more (check local listings for your city's acts.)

Once they played, great
Great show. Not a huge fan, but BF is. Once
they actually started playing, it was
awesome. Still can put on a show. However
they said show started at 7:30, no opening
band, so we got there only to listen to a
hypeman jabber on for an hour and 15
minutes. It got really old after about 20. Wish
they would have just said show starts at 8:45
and not waste my time.
The venue was great. Kohl Center doesn't
have a bad seat. ... Read more

Opening act terrible
Metallica were amazing, The stadium act was great
and gave a good experience for all sides of the Kohl
center. 5 stars for Metallica .Lstening to Bruer doing
his best to stall for hours was a major disapointment.
He lost the crowd and was heartily booed... ... Read more

Overall--Excellent
Good music over sound system prior to band taking stage--ace of spades, live wire,
to name 2. Once band came on, excellent energy but first 3 songs were marred by
bad audio mix. Unforgiven at song 4 (setlist says song 5, maybe I spaced) was really
good and quite a surprise. Sound dude seemed to get his stuff together at this point
and was spot on rest of night. Video and stage lighting was state of art with dozens
of smaller units in sync and colors were bathing arena in reds/oranges. Song 5, now
that we're dead had a drumming sequence that was amazing. Each of the band
played on a unit that came up from the stage. Never done before I don't think. Fade
to Black mid-set was so freaking powerful. Band was 100% there all night. They flew
through Master at 1st set end. Crowd was fully engaged singing every word. Half the
song Hatfield was away from mic.
Encore first song Spit out the bone was epic. Then "nothing else matters" cooled
things off too much IMO. Sandman was average. Rock on! ... Read more
