Metallica Announces Orion Music + More

At the least, they couldn't get Lamb Of God or Trivium or something halfway bearable?

Yeah I mean I don't understand why they wouldn't at least get some bands that are in a similar genre. I mean I guess A7X makes sense (sort of), but the rest?

Da_Muffinz

Machine Head should've been there.

What makes it worse is that they admitted to "hand picking" these bands.

Why the hell couldn't they get their all time biggest influences like Mercyful Fate, Iron Maiden, Diamond Head, Black Sabbath, Blue Oyster Cult ect. that would've been killer!

the only reason why i kinda want to go is that i bet metallica plays a BEAST of a setlist....but James would still sound like shit

The line up makes no sense whatsoever. Wouldn't they also do more than one stop?

It's going to be an annual event at different locations each year.

They're playing The Black Album and Ride The Lightning in it's entirety. Along with Master of Puppets material no doubt. I think James still sounds good, it's just when he tries to reach those high pitched notes that his voice cracks.

I would even go all the way to NJ to see them, but too many hipster bands.

The rumor was true! How pathetic this is... I'd rather see a Metallica cover band at this point.

The Sword sucks. big time. I saw them and they were awful.

Not surprising Metallica would put together a shitty lineup.

I have no clue where there is a field in AC?!?

It did say there's more to be announced, maybe those are gonna be really good?

I'm just looking forward to their next new album and them going on tour.
