HOW IS THIS EVEN POSSIBLE?! 🎵 Metallica Enter Sandman Live Moscow 1991 Reaction

- Опубликовано: 5 сен 2024
- Thanks for checking out our Metallica reaction. This concert was mind blowing. It's crazy to see that 1.6 million people showed up to watch them rock out! Enter Sandman is a good song and it would have been so cool to see it live, back in their prime. That crowd is a little too big for us, but it's still cool to see.

We just got back to our car, this was a great concert.
Traffics gonna be a nightmare
Seriously under-rated comment.

@@vaughanbranch8376 Thanks, I stole it though, not even gonna lie haha
lmfao
You have to appreciate the time that this occurred. The Cold War with Russia had just ended after 40 years and the Berlin Wall had just fallen. To have an American band in Moscow was impossible up to this point in history.
Right after the wall fell? Maybe '89, '90?
so what was the commissars(former?) doing at this time? loading and unloading their makarov while chewing air in frustrating?
Against all odds (and my own personal 👎) I’m still rooting for the Swede from Joizey living in Oz @swedishlina on this one.
@@Belnick6666 if I had to guess, they were listening to ABBA. Secretly & with their closest comrade. Then again, I’m admittedly biased. 🇺🇸 privilege. Ahem. 🤷♂️
Not totally impossible but only two others played there before. One was the Rolling Stones. I don't remember the other.
_"You know I've definitely heard this song, I don't know where"_
Answer: Every sporting event since 1991.
Mariano Rivera's walk-out music..
haha. you aren't joking. you can't even get on the gravitron on the boardwalk without hearing it.
Virginia Tech Football!!!!
And to think, when they first came out, they couldn't even get their music on the radio. They refused to play it. Their popularity was mostly word of mouth.
Wouldn't happen today.
This was back in 1991 right after the Berlin Wall came down and was the first concert allowed in that area of the world. The army was there in a security capacity but got in a lot of trouble for partying and not doing there job. The helicopters seen in the video were there actually misting was on the crowd because it was like 110 or 115 degrees and a lot of people were collapsing due to heat exhaustion. Definitely a concert that will never duplicated🖤🤘
@@thrreenil Especially since Moscow isnae in Germany lmao
Lex had a great question that's never been answered which is, How many people died?
It's a Million and a half people. Definitely a couple people died, but it's Metallica. If they achieved 5-7 times more record sales of each record the band release throughout their career they would LITERALLY BE Dethklok now. Governments would change because they wrote a song about, I don't know... Duncan Hills Coffee.
@@CoffeeAndPaul I believe it was confirmed 3, which is insanely low to me.
yeah I think like 70 to 80 people actually died
@@CoffeeAndPaul I think like 70 to 80 people died.
This was a huge historical moment. The USSR was collapsing and this was one of the first times this type of concert was allowed in the USSR.
Yes exactly! This event is strongly connected to fundamental historical breakthrough in our country. This show is legendary. Sad I wasn't there.
Thank you for the info I was already wondering how in the world was there a concert with 1.6 million people attending. I was born in 91 and had a bit different taste in music so I didn't know all of this.
Ow and I'm from a small Island in the Caribbean, I wasn't exposed to much.
@@MattyDready that I know, I don't like most of the new stuff even from older artists I prefer the older songs and every day I learn about a new song and get to experience it for the first time and I like it.
@@monkey_ish4117 technically they stopped counting at 1.6mil
I like this girl. She says what she’s thinking. And doesn’t seem to over analyze beforehand. Feels genuine.
And she’s adorable
Yeah, but she's my girlfriend.
Totally agree. 👍
She’s very animated lol
They compliment each other. He's reading the lyrics, and she's jamming.
“YouknowwhatImean?” 😜😄
Can you imagine being in front of 1.6 million people inhaling their first taste of freedom to your band?!? Absolutely epic!
Imaging having to pee and being front row.
@@KimchiYeo Just do it man. Just do it.
freedoms just another word for nothing else to lose big up Russia 30 years on probably less rules and regulations than the woke western world ha ha it is what it is
Yep. Moscow.
@eka putra dude it’s Russia those crazy bastards would most likely eat the shit
Lex makes me so happy. Her energy is infectious.
me too I like her
She's digging it! ❤😂
Lex is by far the coolest woman doing reactions on here. She just experiences the music. Doesn’t try to over analyze it. It’s fun to watch.
It's like they're both taking this musical journey across the Grand Canyon...
but Brad is typing up a spreadsheet on his laptop while Lex has her face pressed up against the window looking outside. Her enthusiasm for the music is contagious. =)
Absolutely agree! 💯
@@jamesanthony8438 that's a perfect summation of them. Lex is the best!!!!
That’s why I subscribed after watching their reaction video for the first time! She’s a hoot!
Lex needs to show Brad how to really rock and feel it! 💕🎼🎸
I love how Lex is always hyped and living the vibe, Brad is so analytical, and neither of you are bothered by the other being in a different lane.
Yes absolutely! It's one of the main reasons why I love this channel.
Same here
Modern narcissistic psychology is making people want to date mirrors and not be challenged, but sadly it just doesn't work, you need someone to challenge you and balance you out
@Tony that is a really interesting point. I (Lex) always felt that way, like i was drawn to my complete opposite. Just so much more growth potential if you can get past the monumental differences 😂🔥👊🏽
^ This is why I subbed. ^ Amazing couple.
This was in Russia, those kids were starving for music. Rock On, young people ❤️
yep, or technically USSR for two more months until December 1991. and I mean it was cool gig and all but I think majority of the audience was attending it for more than just music
Bread would be better.
Loved the Pantera performance
@Miles And this is relevant to this video how?
@@dilbertdoe601 or vodka
I saw this concert at The Great Western Forum in Los Angeles in January of 1992. An average concert is around an hour and a half.... Metallica played, with no opening act, for nearly four straight hours with not one, not TWO, but THREE encores.. It was one of the most metal experiences of my life.
Russian military choppers flying overhead makes this show even more bad ass, lol.
That looked like a HIP-8 transport helo
The helicopters were to keep the crowd from overheating.
Choppers want to see metallica too.
Epic
The first part was played in one of client Eastwood s movies. A fist full of dollars I think
This is one of the greatest moments in rock history.
Music history*
*history
Russian army bopping always gets me
This is the moment in rock history
Sorry is, is the greatest moment in rock history.
"I feel like in my head, this is what a rock star would be like."
Actually...right on point...
Absolutely. Metallica owned that entire crowd.
No question!!! Metallica took over with the Black Album. I’d like to see what she says were they to see Van Halen back in the day. Unchained Oakland 🤘🏼
I'm an old school metalhead and I love Brad and Lex. I just wanna give them a big bear hug!!
no, you're
weird.
The look of disappointment on her face when she realized this experience was unachievable in modern times just shows how timeless this genre of Rock is...
Hardly "unachievable". Just not worth it.
I'm sure being in that crowd was an incredible experience, but when they do the wide shots, I like to play a little game called "How many of those people have shit their pants so far?".
To experience a vintage mosh pit again!
@@peasantsarerevolting9343 rocks gonna come back, nirvana came out of no where when rock was basically dead, its bound to happen again only a matter of time
@@imahacker4086 The only thing that sucks about rock is when bands try to reinvent themselves... Kinda like kiss. They went from rock, to disco, to rock opera, to hair band, and back to rock. They basically became a kiss cover band now.
Plus, it was Moscow and so much excitement for Russians to experience Metallica, and rock is popular in Russia and still is.
The helicopters buzzing the crowd get me every time. Absolutely insane.
Concert was at the airport and its free.
Soviet safety standards were... Soviet.
@@stuartmidgley1 The best answer this week! Ya in America some officials would freak
Welcome to Soviet Union 1991 it probably will never happen in today's Russia in this day in age. METALLICA RULED THAT DAY.
The helicopters were to cool off the crowd lol...no really,they were 😋
Hey guys. I was born in Moscow in 1980. And i remember this event so well! That was a history. The history of music and brotherhood! I’ve lost my friend. Police was so aggressive…However, we were aggressive too…It was a revolution. Braking the wall! And rock’ roll forever!!! That was epic…
Sorry for the lost of your friends
On the other hand. 💊I'm sharing Acts 2:38 also look for oneness about Jesus with anyone who wants it bless

@@itstheotherwhitemeat It was common. I was 12 at my first rock concert. Huge venue.
she's brilliant and her energy is gorgeous, he looks smart and sharp. Good guys
You literally can’t put into words the energy that exists at a concert like this .
It’s 100% energy and 100% love.
50+ people were killed and there was Mafia hit that happened also. So let's just be conservative and say 99% love 😉
I was just about to comment on how there is no energy in the universe like rock show energy... And here you were. Truth is truth!
I might argue that the energy at a small venue is just as good. But this is awesome.
ruclips.net/video/MzxWkxTnG0E/видео.html
I was 16 when I first heard Metallica. It scared me. I was into rock but rush, AC/DC, I listened to whiplash and I though it sounded evil. Now I wish real heavy music was being made in the us. There’s some Norwegian metal but ehh.
She finally witnessed a band that were actual ROCKSTARS. Their performance live made her visualize the meaning of the word.
I beg to differ , not rock stars. Rock Gods.
@@lisalotwin3154 totally, when you see James Hetfield, he just look like a freaking North God (is hair, is presence, doesn't seem impressed by the crowd...)
well theres a very good reason for so many soviet citizens being present
still, as a testament to Metallica's popularity; anywhere they go there is never enough space because they are one of the very few artists in the world that would perform a concert almost anywhere in the world and still literally have millions of people show up if tickets availability was unlimited
this was true then and is still true today
You haven’t lived until you have been to a Mighty METALLICA show!🤘🤘🤘
This was the first time a western band toured the soviet union. They dont make them like this anymore.
Don’t worry Lex, the entire world will never see a concert like this again. This was a once in a lifetime show. Nowadays, you have to go to Brazil or Japan for 300,000+ people at a metal concert
Agree, this was only possible because the Soviet Union just collapsed and Russians were getting their first taste of freedom EVER.
That is too real
War for Terri Tori.
The Iron Curtain could only fall once
I feel like 300,000+ in Japan is still a stretch. Don't get me wrong, bands like BABYMETAL and Band-Maid, as well as others have made huge strides in bringing metal back in Japan, but it's still miniscule compared to the J-Pop/Idol system of music there that just keeps churning out artists/groups disposably for consumption. It is on an upwards trend for metal there, though.
At the same time I have to remember that BABYMETAL sold out the Tokyo Dome (55,000 seats) two nights in a row back in like 2016/2017, but I wonder how many people were there both nights since they ran through their entire song catalogue for those concerts.
Many ppl will say their gen is best….but the truth is….the 80s, were a different era, a different feel. The electricity, the happiness, the friendships, the music. Hell, even the sun and stars seemed to shine with a brighter sense of happiness and relaxation. The 80s were truely a very very special time. I miss it dearly…because it was, untouchable. It was love in its purest form.
GenX forever! The 80s were pure magic!! Once in a millennia.
Yeeeah, and this was in 90´s... 1991, as told above.
Gen X ❤
Yeah, concerts today are just a few thousand kids holding phones to record it instead of experiencing it.
The history involved with this show was intense. The iron curtain had just fallen and the Berlin wall just came down. This was the first time western metal had played in the USSR. These fans were finally free for the first time 🤯
wasnt there a concert before this one put on by doc mcgee...had pantera, motley crue, bon jovi, cinderella and the scorpions? Moscow Peace festival i think it was called?
@@markherring3513 youb are correct sir, but the crowd was not nearly this big for that show
The US flags were actually contraband.... was epic event.... crowd was actually about 1 million... not 1.6.... but still🤯
I am Russian, what do you call freedom ??? after the collapse of the USSR, plants and factories all over the country began to be closed, unemployment and famine set in. People died as during the war against the German fascists, I will remind you that 39 million people died. and this is in "peaceful", as you say "free" time. The country defaulted, the money depreciated and the crisis came. Western and Chinese consumer goods poured into Russia, as well as drugs, the population was drunk and everyone died from low-quality alcohol and drugs. the streets were filled with homeless people and street children, the country had large debts and came under external control. Is that what you call freedom? Thank God that the terrible 90s are over and Russia has begun to revive. The collapse of the USSR is a tragedy for the entire people of Russia.
Actually there was the Moscow Music Peace festival prior to this in 1989. And the Scorpions who played western hard rock but are from Germany did few shows in Russia prior to that. Scorpions are big in Russia.
When I was 14, my brother (17) took me to see Ozzy in Houston in '86. Metallica opened, (Master of Puppets/"Damage Inc. tour") and it changed my life. The whole way home, my brother just kept repeating: "That shit is next level. OMG." We bonded bigtime.
i don't see him much these days, but when we do get a chance to chat, it always leads back to Cliff and how lucky we were to see him.
Wish I could have seen Cliff. I saw them at The Monsters of Rock in Dallas in 1988
That is pretty cool my older brother who is 6 years older took me and my best friend at the time to Metallica on the And Justice For All tour in 1989 when I was 12 years old The Cult was the opening band.
Saw the Same tour in Denver when I was 16. (same thing... changed my life musically, being able to say I saw Cliff Burton play live. It's something I'll never forget!)
I have an old pic. of me wearing that Ultimate Sin tour jersey. I remember Cliff doing the head whirl and wondering how the hell he could play so fast on a bass.
Lex always has the best reactions. Her passion for the music is infectious.
And she’s gorgeous too.
@@redmeat2ndamendment695 She's got great intuition as well.Probably a high IQ
Very.
That's more than awesome.
It's historic.
AC/DC and Pantera were also on the bill.
Imagine that... 🔥💥🔥💥🔥💥
Damn!
OMG! I saw Metallica with Guns N’ Roses in 1992 in Houston. It changed my perception of music, but it was nothing like that. They had military helicopters on crowd control flying over, and the soldiers in the crowd are just as wasted as everyone else.
I’m 55, I saw Metallica many times back in the day. The energy they bring infuses into the crowd like nothing else. It’s impossible not to bang your head, jump up and down, swing your hair, and scream!!!!!
Watching them swing their hair makes me think of Beavis and Butthead whenever a Metal song was played!
Ive seen them many times as well and my neck still hurts!!
Rocked
Seeing them twice in 3 days next year, can't wait!
@nymom8204 - I'm 53. I remember hair.
Can we just mention that Lex is the most adorable rocker since the 80's 🤣❤️🇨🇦
At the risk of sounding like a dirty old man....yes Lex, you are absolutely cute as hell! Rock on darlin
💯 love watching good people rockin out to good music
I remember being at the England leg of this 'Monsters of Rock' tour at castle Donnington. I am a Scotsman now living in Texas, still have the ticket. This Russia show was damn crazy. The cold war ending, the Soviet union ending. These kids finally letting loose at a free show. By the time Metallica came on the count had stopped at 1.7 million and was estimated to be over 3.5 million. Freedom is powerful

I was in this crowd. I was not 14 years old. It was cool. The empire of the USSR collapsed, and we threw off the shackles of communism. We thought there would be world peace. All countries will be friends. Insane euphoria. In a few years I will be sent to war. I will kill people, and they will not always be terrorists with weapons in their hands. In wars, innocent people often suffer. Many of my childhood friends will die. But then we were all alive. So happy and free as I will never be at this concert again. It was crazy. I got a Metallica denim jacket from those days. I'm already gray-haired. But when I watched your video, I became a teenager again. Thank you. I do not know English well, sorry if I wrote it incomprehensibly

@@keetahbrough Was this ONLY a metallica show or was it a monstoers of rock show with multiple bands? If was a mosters of rock, what other bands played?
Legendary band, legendary song, legendary concert
Seen Metallica 8 times, they never disappoint, even last year, and they are pushing the age of 60. Main difference to me concert wise is the price, last year the price for a floor pass was a least $1,000. In the late 80’s early 90’s it was a general admission ticket, 25-35 bucks, and you could push and claw your way to the stage or go sit up in the stands. Never thought I’d be saying, oh man, the good old days.
That’s so crazy! Born 94 so not as old buy I feel the change so drastic, the times before so much technology was something else
You forgot, "Get off my lawn, punks. Your music can't hold a candle to my generation's!"
I paid $36 for a pair of tickets to see Pantera and Typo Negative in 94. Sunken Gardens in San Antonio, TX. $70 for a pair of Metallica, Fight and Suicidal Tendencies.

Wowwww that is alot of inflation!!!
Here's your chance Lex - Metallica is playing two nights in Orlando in November, see you guys there!
Oh I hope you guys goooooo, you will have the best night of your life.

This was a "Monsters Of Rock" all-day concert. It was free to attend the show, hence the very-large crowd at an air force base outside Moscow. Metallica appeared early in the day. AC/DC was the headlining act at the end of the night (their music was banned in the USSR for many years).
AC/DC played for an estimated 500k while Metallica for half of that
Logic and knowledge would would make a person ask:
If Metallica which was NOT the main attraction and played for 1.6 mil- 2 mil, then the main act AC-DC played for what number ?
The truth is AC-DC played for most people there which was 500k.
Metallica played for half that ~250k.
Russians estimated 1.6 million people were present over the course of that week-end. NOt at the Metallica show.
This was a 3 or 4 day music festival, there were 25 or 26 bands that played thru the weekend, was in a critical moment in history, since a week or 2 later cane the fall of the U.S.S.R. and this was the first concert allowed to be put on as the country was changing
@@jimmylealand801 no it wasn’t
@@robertphelps1574 Wow, good argument.
The Historical significance of this concert cant be overstated. This was the first American Metal Tour through the Former Soviet Union. The Cold War was ending.. There had just been a failed Putsch in September.. The Berlin wall had come down and this crowd of former Soviet Citizens... was waving the American Flag rocking out to quintessential American Music.
It was Awesome.
It wasn't the former Soviet Union. The concert was September 28 1991. The Soviet Union fell December 8, 1991
@@ikeknightsnevertheless it was the time of significant changes in my country and western metal groups performance like that is the sign of that era.
You know at that time there was more hope for a better life than now.
And it’s all gone now.
these are real musicians, no pre recorded beats, just raw talent.
This was a time when in Russia you didn’t get to see these bands, it was a amazing moment in time. Nobody wanted to miss this opportunity
And I also was impressed by the balls it takes to play in this arena. This is not normal, it is amazing 🤩
Yeah there's now 1.6 million people who can say there were there that day :D
The funny part here is that it wasn't even an Arena, it was an airfield lol!!!
Pantera-Domination at the same concert is a must see!!! Dimebag Darrell is an absolute guitar God and Pantera is legendary
First introduction to pantera should (in my humble opinion) be a studio version, and then later the live stuff from moscow. I LOVe that But Its a bit Chaotic. Do fully Agree on Dimebag, the best guitarist ever! Rip Brothers

Took my son to see them in Rome, Italia for his 16th. It was wall to wall. Great time. They perform solid; no bs; they take their performances seriously.
This show was actually a HUGE stepping stone in the close of the Cold War. Still blows my mind, though, how in front of 1.6 million people, they still performed like it was just another day at the office... Got out there and did what the do... Put on a hella show! You know they had butterflies before they took that particular stage.
"According to various sources (the exact figure cannot be given, because the entrance was free), on Saturday, from 300 to 400 thousand people visited the airfield in Tushino.

This generation will never understand but that's the god of rock right there performing in front of 1.6 million people. Rock on!
Ok millenial (And yes I'm aware of this being an old comment if you were planning on saying something.)
I'm really glad you're seeing this and getting that feeling. I saw Metallica on this tour, not to 1.6 million, but to a 20,000 jam packed arena concert. James Hetfield is an incredible front man and lead singer. That was a great concert. I'm older, but I still love to Rock!!!!
She gets it and yes this is the epitome of “Rock Star”. But the bigger picture is Metallica in Russia. This is historic for that country and the band, and it’s likely more like 2 million ppl.
Ac dc and panterra also played there, ac dc were already so well established
True! Also great bands. For some reason I can’t get past Metallica. They hijack the pleasure sensing part of my brain and I see nothing else. They are hypnotizing. Truly, the song Enter sandman in Moscow is a force to be reckoned with. But...I probably have dain bramage.😵
Acdc just pip it for me, the energy they bring along with their stage presence, also still goin to this day bringing out another top album! And Angus 👌🏻 like Brian Johnson said, he's got the devil in his fingers n the blues in his soul 👍🏻
🤘🏻For sure. AC/DC got me through some serious physical training back in the day. ⚡️ENERGY! As a woman ....I tend to relate to musicians that can show vulnerability. sucker for a metal ballad. No lie. Also, Metallica songs don’t seem overt with the sexual stuff. Which I don’t mind cause I get it. Metallica songs might be intellectual or deeper. And I dislike the word “intellectual” 🤮lol -but NO disrespect at all. Truly. You clearly have good taste.👌🏻
I love how she gets into it having fun
I had an older Russian friend, and he said back then, the cops would jam on the breaks, get out, and beat you into a pulp because you had long hair and a Metallica shirt. So he came to USA, and was disappointed in our waning metal scene, lol. Boris was legendary.
Your comment immediately made me think of this: Olaf... Metal! lol.

This is when a band had to be the same live as they are in the recording studio. Real talent.
guns and roses.... sorry ya lost the whole argument because of them. lol total shit live if they even showed.
not the same, they had to be better.
I think up to the 1950's the main recording process was to just put the entire band in the studio and do it as if it was live.
Editing was much limited and ammounted to basically changing equalization switches.
What brought a tear to my eye? The fact that the intro was from the soundtrack of the movie "The Good, the Bad & the Ugly" first album my Dad ever gave me. Metallicas influences/inspirations are endless. Sniff... :)
This girl has such an adorable personality. Awesome overall video guys.
I'm So happy you noticed the Coolness of Hetfield and his Power Stance
There’s nothing like the thumping beat of the music pounding through every ounce of your body at a true rock concert, especially when the band starts playing your favorite song and everyone knows the words for a massive sing along. The energy is incredible!
My first was AC/DC!¡!!!
@@montanamangum4026 I saw them on ball breaker tour, great concert, no Metallica but probably my 2nd favorite concert outside of the Metallica ones, and I have saw a lot
@@gunsgoodtime thank God for great music!!
I like to say it gets my blood boiling. That's when the fun starts
If you didn't grow up in this time period (I was in High School when this concert happened) it can be difficult to understand what this, the crowd's energy and size was all about. This was the Monsters of Rock concert that was organized after the fall of the Berlin wall, and collapse of the Soviet Union. Western albums for these groups had been black market for decades and the people of the former Soviet Union finally saw that change. It was a crazy period of hope after what we thought was the end of the cold war, and this was just one of those iconic moments of the energy of that period. Again, it is just hard to understand unless you were around in the time period before and during all these events. It was an amazing period at that time. Sadly, I rarely see reactions to this video/concert, that even mention what exactly led to this moment/concert but it is important to have that context to truly appreciate it.
I might have heard this song before. Lol Dude this is one the most famous, often played, rock songs in the world. Might be top 5 most famous. Hard to think of many songs more famous.
If you never really listened to metal like that you really haven't heard it. 🤣
I love that Guitar Hero seems to be the catalyst for new people to 70-90s rock. At the time it was just cool to play, I never once considered there were kids out there being exposed to music they never would have heard without it. Shout out to Tony Hawks pro skater as well. Definitely helped rock/metal spread to new ears, pretty awesome.
If you ever saw a Yankees game you heard this song. It was closer Mariano Rivera’s song. They played it every time he came out.
@@juicesghost8501 Oh hell yah. We bought ROCK BAND for our PS3. My daughter was 7 or so. She started learning the drums. Anyways, it exposed her to all the great rocknroll I grew up on. Old boston for instance REO, Joan Jett, Tom Petty, etc. etc etc. So we do this for about 4 years till we tire of it. But her knowledge of good music was huge.
Fast-forward to high school - she's in school band and going to her shows riding in cars driven by other student's parents. They're listening to the music they grew up on (same as mine) and my daughter knows all the songs! Her friends just look at her like she's an alien, and the parents in the front think it's the coolest thing and keep turning up the volume cuz she knows it all. That's awesome.
Yeah he used to play football - no doubt he heard it over the PA somewhere in some stadium.
I've seen Metallica back in the day 3x. The first time was in '88, then '91, and '95. They are 3 hours of pure energy and me losing my voice from screaming for a few days after. It's a total energy release for anyone at the concerts too. So hard to explain - it is just amazing fun! I'd like to see them again at least once more!
same..I caught the and justic for all tour and black album twice..once with jame's burnt arm (the guns and roses arena tour) and then they swung by later after the arena tour and came back to town and did their own concert...james arm was no longer in a cast and he was playing guitar.....that first one i seen, and justice for all, i was exhausted just sitting there watching.
I attended 8 Metallica concerts in the late 80s, early 90s. My ears are still ringing, literally.
That is actually pretty unfortunate :( Tinnitus sucks! Can't imagine how awesome those concerts were though.
I've seen them 3 times, but if you thought your ears were ringing after their concert, you should have gone to an Iron Maiden concert. The ear ringing after was worse.
@@douglaslunsford7052 nope... metalica's ear damage is definitely worst compared with Iron maden....especially if standing very close
Uhm ... Manowar...
I guess it depends on the venue. Where I saw Iron Maiden, they were definitely louder then Metallica.
you have to understand the history of this time period. This was just before the fall of the Soviet Union and communism. This was a free event called Monsters of Rock, and basically it was the first time, that western, american(!) bands visited. Nobody suspected this much people to attend. And this music then was not just music, it was basically the start of something new and free. Imagine being there, never hearing anything powerful like this, knowing, that the world you knew is about to change.
Wrong. Go back 2 or 3 years EARLIER to a thing called The Moscow Music Peace Festival and a slew of '80's hair bands including Bon Jovi, The Scorpions, and Motley Crue. It was 1988 or 89. It was also aired on almost every radio station in America at the time. Look it up.
@@michelleruffalo4385 hmm.. thanks for the info, learning a thing every day:)
@@danielszomor5025 oh me too. I just happen to be old enough to have heard the event I spoke of on the radio. I was still in school and couldn't listen to all of it because of bed time and because of school.
The Moscow Music Peace festival was in 1989 and Scorpions and Bon Jovi were co-headliners… Scorpions were absolutely ridiculously worshipped in the USSR (which is funny, because Russians and Germans haven’t exactly gotten along over the years)
I’m gonna keep pressing…lol.You must experience Iron Maiden-Hallowed be thy name.One of the most amazing songs ever recorded.Up the Irons!
I second this
Fear not Darrell - I chatted with lex the other night on Discord and emphasized doing that song - she said the next one would be Metallica - moscow, but she noted that Hallowed is a must watch/listen.
@@Frostrazor Awesome..since they started doing Metal reactions and by seeing how much she is feeling the instrumentation of heavier music I have been imagining how much Lex is going to feel the melodic Greatness of Hallowed be thy name.Thanks for the response!
The Trooper and Run For The Hills! Ohhh yeah.
Hetfield crushes Steve Harris!
I had a couple of friends in high school who attended that concert. It was so talked about for about 2 years afterwards. It was crazy.
It’s still being talked about.
I've seen Metallica live 12 times... It's awesome live.
Still worth it now ? Because I’m new to it and I’m love with a few tracks
@@kingofthepond6612 I'd say absolutely
Imagine the adrenaline pumping getting 1.6 million people into the music! Definitely a record number of people in any concert anywhere EVER, wow!!!!
It was for a long time until a concert in Rio on NYE 2016 had 3.6 million. I think it was Rod Stewart???? But this was pretty revolutionary :)
This is the year I was born, and this is the year my great country broke the hand cuffs of communism (And has been rebuilding ever since). I want everybody who is reading this to appreciate the beautiful sight of American flags flying in the crowd. People were finally allowed to express their emotions and opinions. Bands such as these were allowed to finally enter the country and perform. Rock n Roll as a whole no longer had to be underground. These people in that crowd have NEVER seen anything like this.
Can only imagine how that felt...
THE GREAT PEOPLE OF RUSSIA!,AND THE GREAT SACRED HOLY MOTHERLAND OF RUSSIA!.DASVIDANIA CAMARAD!.
Great comment Pavel. I read your words with openness and appreciate their meaning. What an absolutely euphoric feeling it would have been for the people at the concert.😃
Only music can bring so many people together. ❤
@@LouisCypher1976 He's lying! There were no communist handcuffs. Because there was no communism! There was socialism! That is, the welfare state. Apartments were supplied free of charge, and free medicine was provided with work. The state took care of its citizens and the Soviet people were the freest and happiest. There were excesses when foreign groups were not allowed in. But mind you, if people did not know, they would not have come in such numbers. He was born in 91 and cannot know how it was!
Lex is totally amazed by James! I love it. This concert blew EVERYONE away. Absolutely amazing.
My sister was involved in the underground metal scene in the 80's and we were friends with lots of bands. We saw Metallica play in many clubs in the San Francisco Bay Area back then, including my sisters living room! Those were some great times!
🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
You win lol
One guess to what your sister was doing to earn that
Without a dope
My bands managers son was a good friend of James. The camping trips I'd get invited to were lit.
Thanks! Love u guys and Lex’s reactions!!!!
Panter Domination from the same concert!!! Dimebag was the epitome of a metal guitar player.
Domination isone of the BEST LIVE songs ive seen
Yes! Pantera are the kings
Dimebag was the gold standard for guitarist. Matter of FACT, nothing has changed and he Still is! Rip dimebag
So glad I got to see him before he was killed. Saw Pantera on the Trendkill tour. Amazing.
@@warwithin7 their best album for me... heavy and gritty as hell.
I saw this band when I was 20. 3 years ago, I took my 20 year-old daughter to see this band, and they were just as good as I remembered when I was a kid. It was EPIC!
Y’all should also check out Pantera- “Domination” from the same concert
Definately
This.
And Creeping Death, the next song after Sandman Really wild listening to millions of people chant die die die.
Indeed. It would have to be the best live version of most songs I’ve seen. I’m a massive Tallica fan, but Pantera absolutely wipe the floor purely with this song alone and the SOLO!!!!!🤤 Dime da 💣 baby! My Boi!!!!!
Hell ya
We all know that Metallica is a masterpiece of a band, but let’s talk about this freaking amazing video!
This video is artistry at its best, capturing the very essence of music where it brings people from everywhere and all cultures. I haven’t researched, but who else had a concert with his many concertgoers. Discounter proves that no matter where you are on this earth we’re all the same.
The Moscow video is incredible/legendary. I can't believe the amount of people to this day.
I don't know if people understand/still remember what this concert meant at the time as well.
I got to see Metallica during the Reload tour in Pittsburgh. Great live venue and crowd. They were still just about everything you would hope for live back then.
Yeah, ruzzia was just got their 1st McDonalds, and one the first "actual rock bands" there was Metallica!!! Such a greatness there at that time.
Lex was right tho, never again. Icon curtain is back. 😅
They were Awesome at Tampa Stadium Florida Also this song never gets old!
I understand. 1991, the year the USSR fell. This concert would have been impossible before then.
Brad, if you’ve ever watched a Virginia Tech football game on tv, they enter the stadium to Enter Sandman. Their entrance is on RUclips....
Just down the road from VT!! 🤘🏻
Also Mariano Rivera the famed New York Yankee baseball closer used this as his walkout song.
@@BrodiemanAXT I lived close to Blacksburg. Beautiful part of the country. Living in Florida now. GO HOKIES
Same!!! Brings back so many memories of college! LETS GOOOOO!
Don’t forget this is way before technology..
Metallica was on their prime.. one of the greatest Rock bands all time..
@@octavius8562 ooo you must be the other genius did not get the memo..
HJ technology.. you got that.. what a moran.. what are you public school graduate.. I have to drove diagram for you..
@@muratyucel9011 drove your car? It's draw not drove smart pants.

@@muratyucel9011 Oof. I am on your side here ,dude, but saying "moran" is not a great look for you about school graduating. There are also other errors in you grammar, so maybe not throw stones in a glass house?
Disclaimer. If you are not a native english speaker, i will take back everything i said. Just so you know.
@@muratyucel9011 rude... or in your case rood
Metallica was my first concert . My brother and I went and I've been privileged enough to have seen them 3 other times. The energy in the crowd is really something else.
The late 80’s and 90’s was the pinnacle of rock concerts and rock music in general. Everything was epic back then.
The early 80's definitely had some major Epic factor!.. Sabbath - Born Again '82, Priest - Screaming for Vengeance '82, Motley Crue shout at the devil opened for Ozzy Bark at the Moon '83, Van Halen - 1984 at The Garden was so sick! Maiden - the Powerslave tour '85.. It was a little before my time for going to concerts, but the entire decade of the '70s may very well have contained The Epitome Of Rock-n-Roll Epicness!
Ever heard of Woodstock? That's where it all started.
@@randerson7761 You must be on what they were back then.
Music peaked with 80’s/90’s rock/metal. We live in a musical wasteland now
@@randerson7761 Yes it was the beginning but not the pinnacle.
I was lucky enough to see them 3 weeks before this was recorded, also open air, also on an airfield.
They were preceded by The Black Crowes, Queensryche, and Mötley Crüe. They were followed by AC/DC!
Great memories ...
this was the Monsters of Rock tour correct?
@@ehouse430 Yes, it was. One of the best concerts of my life.
Pantera was the first band
Great reaction, Lex is a metal head for sure, need to show more of her rocking out. You can tell she wants to. Grew up listening to Metallica. Need to check out Megadeath, I bet she likes them too.
Megadeth..But yes,they are an ABSOLUTE must..You can literally pick any song from any album and it will blow ur mind as to the technicality..🤘
@@deanleonard9984 Technicality does NOT always equal good. 😉
“Of to never never land”
😂😂🎶😂😂
So true how you guys feel
💪TRUTH 💪
Even rappers want to be rock stars, look at that crowd and energy.
So do it rappers! Grab some instruments, learn them, and let’s get rocking again! We need it!!!
@@jamesleverentz6294 Yeah I'm seeing a huge demand and opportunity for these artists to step up and start rockin.
Yep, but it pisses me off when rappers call themselves rock stars. It couldn't be further from the truth. Rock stars as far as I'm concerned have far more true musical talent.
Lex exudes pure musical joy! Makes me enjoy this band even more!
Yes, I get the same feeling.
I’ve seen them LIVE twice.
It’s incredible. The energy is the best of any live show.
Same here, I saw them in 1999 and then in 2019 and the live energy was something else
Ive seen them 4 times,Dori!! Just fabulous!! Uve ever seen Iron Maiden???
AC/DC is comparable...I've seen them 7 times
Agreed, and I have seen a ton of bands
@@ST_DCT I have them below Metallica, but actually 2nd, ball breaker tour. I saw a ton of bands too so that's saying a lot for ACDC
Imagine being IN Metallica and seeing this many people singing this song back to them. Legendary
Brad: How do you prepare to perform for 1.6 million people?
Answer: You just be Metallica.
One the GREATEST bands ever!
For real they commanded that stage like it was nothing, made it look easy, legends.
I think they used drugs and alcohol...
I'm pretty sure the big 4 was there, not just Metallica. I'm not sure if Megadeth was there or not though.
Nope this was AC/DC show not anyone else's and they did It for free and paid the other two bands . Facts . They didn't even know who the first openers was this band In the video and the other band
This concert was added last minute at the end of the '91 Monsters of Rock tour. The fall of the Berlin wall, the fall of communism in the Soviet Union and massive student protests, the new Soviet regime promised the students a Western Rock concert, which had never been allowed inside the CCCP before. They asked if AC/DC, Metallica, and the rest if they would consider doing this concert for free, they all agreed, this concert was put together in two weeks and added to the end of a long world tour, and the rest is literally HISTORY! Just a few years earlier we were still in the cold war, living in fear of a possible nuclear war with the Soviets, so for these groups to be allowed into the Soviet Union, made possible by all these students who fought for their rights, notice there weren't any women there, or not many anyway. Still a very scary time in the world and there. The bands themselves didn't know what to expect and were scared, military everywhere.
Still 5 women got raped during this concert, it was a dangerous time so I am kind of pleased that there wasn’t more women there. I still would have given my left arm to be there though.
the crowd interaction in Creeping Death is EPIC
As good as Sandman is Creeping Death is better. The energy is much higher.
Magic
Creeping death is next level, islets like our anthem at this point
Yup A+++
Metallica was in their prime in the '89 Seattle show, the fans knew it was being recorded .....and they went ballistic!
Try “For whom the bell tolls” live in Oakland 1985. Cliff shreds the bass in the intro
Monsters of Rock in moscow in 1991 was among the top 5 greatest music festivals EVER GIVEN IN MUSIC HISTORY ; and you can definitely see why ; many great artists rocked this stage ; the russian militairy had to be put in place to keep everyone at bay (there is a video of Pantera's performance during this show where you can see police and militairy beating on people , the video is called "Primal concrete sledge (moscow 1991)
Gotta check out the Seattle 1989 concert. Literally start to ending ALL of their songs are preformed so well with so much energy. Their best concert *in my opinion* ..
Yup
“The thing that should not be” from that concert. Wooohoo! Badass!
That’s because they were fueled by drugs, alcohol, and hate that night. Legend has it Hetfield’s guitar is still “getting fukt.”
@@Ryan-sb5pc Lol, pretty funny.
@@michaelhoilman6897 Thank you. I wasn’t kidding about the drugs and alcohol part though they said in a later interview they were messed up.
yes lex, it was amazing to be a teenager in the 80's and young adult in the 90-2000. So many amazing shows and it was so cheap to buy tickets. Absolutely the best time to be a fan in the history of rock music.
The Sandman is a mythical character in European folklore who puts people to sleep and encourages and inspires beautiful dreams by sprinkling magical sand
Not exactly… Sandman is a character from a story by Ernst Hoffmann, a 19th century German writer. Sandman comes at night to the kids who refuse to sleep and throws sand into their eyes until they bleed. Then he takes them to the moon where he feeds them to his children… I guess those who watch RUclips on their iPhones instead of sleeping should know: one of those nights he will pay them a visit!
Sandman is also death, and the DC comics graphic novel.
Morpheus could be another recipient of that name, Greek God of Dreams.
Imagine this: it's 1983, you're in a band called Metallica, the members of your band are in their early twenties, and you have just recorded your first LP entitled " kill em all" and you are giving copies away to anybody that will take one while you're playing any local bar that will give you a gig that night. 8 years later and you're in the most popular metal band in the world playing to 1.6 million people, and as you look off the stage into that sea of people that are banging their heads like crazy and singing your lyrics back to you. It's the dream of every kid that ever bought their first instrument or stood in front of a mirror air guitaring to his or her favorite band. It happens, but first you have to buy an instrument. Guitar hero's play real guitars.
People who learned English literally from bootleg tapes of your albums because up to this point they were technically banned in the country you were playing in at the moment.
They weren't there just for Metallica, it is part of the Moscow Peace festival.
I love Lex's reaction. They definitely are the epitome of rock stars!! and their stage energy and presence is off the charts.
Probably one of the most important and badass events that ever happened. Chills every time just seeing the crowd and copters flying over. We take so many things for granted in the US.
