      @sdarbs Год назад +6

      That’s just not happening. Kirk was nailing this. There’s no wobbling. The sound mix on this video is heavily weighted to stage right due to the camera mic position and also the wind. Kirk looks at the others in the band at various points to keep time, as all band mates do. Have you ever played in a band? Don’t let your narrative get in the way of what’s actually happening. These guys were fkn tight at this point and they’re all playing their roles.

I've been asked a few times over the years what concert I would want to see if I had a time machine, and I realize it's that one. I'd love to go back in time and see the show again and appreciate Cliff.

Long live Metallica 🤘👍

  • @andysalter7192
    @andysalter7192 Год назад +32

    This concert was such a big deal for the boys , Cliff being a San Francisco local and going to Day on the Green concerts for years it was a moment of realising that he had " made it" , he had a deal with his parents that they would pay his bills for 3 years and he would go full time with his music and if after 3 years he hadn't gone anywhere he would pack it in and get a " Real " job , so this marked a moment that he could see success and his parents ( Jan and Ray ) knew he was going to be alright.
    There is also the story of James and his mates trashing the Backstage trailer they were staying in that day and being called into notorious San Francisco promotor Bill Graham's office to get yelled at , James totally maned up and said " we are young and dumb , we meant no harm and we are sorry ,I will try and do better!" To which Bill respected and appreciated James from that day forward , on there return to the Day on the Green in 91 , Bill had put plastic coverings on EVERYTHING including the Beer bottles , the couches, the roof , the fruit bowl as a joke.
    Legendary concert and a HUGE day in Metallica history.

      They just recorded it so you'd have to imagine how precise they have it at this point when you didn't have pro tools or fl studio

    Give Kirk props for always delivering the goods when it comes to his guitar solos over Hetfields riffs. Kirk pretty much note for note plays the solos just like it was recorded on the albums and that's what fans love to hear and SEE when checking out their favorite band play live in concert. Good job guys!
