      It's literally the same as getting upset and butt hurt because a band dressed up as Thor and Loki 😂 this planet is covered in idiots.... Either way, the source material is complete and utter nonsensical fiction, conjured long long ago, by men that sniff books.

      Ghost, the band, ended in 2016. Tobias is great, and while he was always the primary songwriter, he wasn't/isn't "Ghost." The BAND was Ghost, they were one of the greatest bands to come out in the last decade, and they are sadly no more.

    I can't imagine someone leaving a Ghost performance and not leaving as a fan! That doesn't even seem fathomable in my mind! I felt like they reached out to me on a whole other level when I saw them live. I had seen performances online prior to seeing them live, but being there is a whole other thing. There is so much energy in the room. It IS a spectacle like no other! I can't imagine another rock band coming close to putting on a show nearly as visually stimulating as Ghost. It was like nothing else. It's fantastic! My only regret is not having a floor ticket! Next time I will know better!

    I'm weeping for Tobias right now. Kirk fucking Hammett just described the process that Ghost goes through before going to stage as an "event". And the fact that he GENUINELY seemed humbled and awed by that process...I can't even imagine the brain tingles he is getting by having one of his idols recognizing him in such a way. You guys...I am SERIOUSLY crying! Sebastian, I genuinely hope you can see this. He's made it. He's done the things you've inspired him to do. If there is an afterlife, PLEASE let him know that you can see what he's done. Not just for Tobias, but for all of us that question the great beyond. 🖤

    Tobias was spot on about making a fan of an "on-the-fence" person at a live show. This was my experience with Iron Maiden. I'd heard plenty of their songs before and respected the talent but they weren't in my top 10 bands. Then I saw them live at an Ozzfest show and it made my ears, brain, and balls explode, and every subsequent listen to one of their songs has (still to this day) taken me back to that amazing live energy and I can't for the life of me remember why it was that the music alone hadn't had that kind of impact on me. Now if they'd phoned in their performance and half-assed it I would have never been taken to that next level of love and respect for their work.
    When I saw Ghost live (Prequelle tour) I was still in my infancy on taking in their catalog at that point but the mystique of the stage show and Tobias' charisma left little room for me to not love what I was seeing and hearing. Ghost is still by far my favorite modern era band- not one of but THE favorite.
    Sorry, Metallica, your live show didn't win me over- it didn't have to. I was already heavily invested in your evil devil music at that point. I can't even pick up a guitar without at least riffing something from a Metallica track- they were literally a part of my musical education (by choice) and a massive influence during my teen years. Getting to see them live was just icing on the cake. They were such a big part of my life it was almost like seeing your buddy's band playing and taking pride in how bad ass their show was.

    Funny thing, I totally connect what Tobias is saying. The first time I saw Ghost, was at a Iron Maiden show they where opening for them and I wasn't much into Ghost I only like one song and didn't even knew who played it, any way after leaving that show I fell in love with te band you could almost feel he stare at you and kind of make you sing or move you know it was a little intimidating but awesome!. Second time I went to see them I brought my fiancé with me and she absolutely loves ghost now and she don't even like rock music, so any way this is the power of our music, it connects people, welcomes every kind of people and makes you feel part of something greater than you.
    And of course Metallica is my absolute favorite band you can also connect alot with them, James, Kirk and Cliff are my role modes in terms of attitude style and musical taste, even though I don't know them personally I've alway felt that they are a type of family to me and always will be in my heart... thank you very much for all this beautiful music and experiences you have given me!

    Been a huge fan of Ghost for a couple years now. Finally got to see them live for the first time last night in Worcester, MA. (Spectacular show! The best show I've been ever been to!) My lovely boyfriend bought the tickets as one of my birthday gifts. He wasn't like a die hard fan or anything like me. But certainly would hear me play them, and enjoyed hearing it, but probably didn't listen to them outside of me playing them. He bought their merch after the show last night :) I think their presence live is amazing and truly entertaining. The show felt so magical yanno? I think he felt it too and is a much bigger fan now because of the theatrical, whimsical, fun performance they put on. If someone leaves a Ghost show not a huge fan... They just have bad taste.

    Considering that Ghost is a huge fan of Metallica, i love how Metallica was willing to bring them under their wing. For a band that has only been at it for about 10 years, other bands would die for this kind of recognition from Metallica that’s been around for 30-40 yrs maybe. And the relationship between both groups is something music lovers should appreciate. Especially in the hard rock and metal industry.
    That being said, both bands should cover each others’s songs. (I know there was one for Enter Sandman with Candlemaas)
