Enter Sandman by Skillet/Red Acoustic Scranton, PA April, 15th 2010

Ben Kasica starts out with acoustic solo. The rest of Skillet comes out to do an acoustic version/cover of Metallica's Enter Sandman in Scranton, PA April 15th. Michael from Red helps out on second verse.

This concert was AMAZING!

[@xHybr1d]

A tour with RED and Skillet is amazing, too bad they didn't come to my area.

Great video! I was there, blown away when they played this. Heard John from Skillet on 97.9x before the show, said this is his #1 favorite rock song. Hope to be posting videos later today.

@crossfade4590 i was working out in lehighton,pa for roughly the last month.That radio station 97.9x is probably one of the best stations i've ever listened too.It kicks PGH 105.9x's ass.I never heard a bad song in the month i listened to it!!!

@markswartzvids... I was in the 5th row center, having trouble converting my videos, hope to figure it out this weekend as well.

@Emcmillin09 well yea enter sandman is the theme of hammerstein ballroom it debuted in it

[@offerror44]

i was in row R, right side orchestra, i forgot to bring my camera

@OrganicDad Like someone else already said, it's not terrible to play a song like Enter Sandman even if you are a Christian band. As long as the song isn't vulgar, then I don't see one problem. And just look at some of Skillet's own songs they play. John said he wrote Believe as a love song to Korey. John's also said that not every song on every record is just about Christ. They write songs about Christ along with other parts of life. I think that's how the band is able to reach so many people.

@Invisable08Racing Heck yea, Saw them too in lansing

[@markswartzvids]

@crossfade4590 Thx...It was a great show. I recorder in 1080p but it takes 2hours to download each song. I may do it this weekend. I think this still looks pretty good for being converted sown to 360 and 480. I have many more....check them out. Where were you sitting?

[@Songwriter4God]

Lol, John droped his pick. That's why everyone should have pickholders! (That sounds like an ad.)
This made me learn Enter Sandman, I thought it sounded awesome acoustic and so I learned it. I don't like the plugged in version as much though, and John sings it better than the Metallica guy, I think.

[@markswartzvids]

@texasmusicaddict34 At 2:48 you can see him looking on the floor for it.....

[@immortalheid]

@OrganicDad Just because you are a Christian Rock Band doesn't mean you were not inspired by bands like Metallica. Often times bands like to do covers of popular songs from their inspirations to pay tribute. If I had to guess I would say that is what Skillet was doing here.

[@evansa7x]

@oblivionfreak1115199 He finger picks on the bass, so he wouldn't need a pick for that. And for the acoustic part he needs one.

[@NilsPotter]

@markswartzvids anyways, it was epic :D

[@SteveEHarrell]

@markswartzvids do it man!! this was awesome footage, plz do it 4 me =)

[@manyppI2]

@oblivionfreak1115199 cuz he didnt think he'd lose it? lol,idk,maybe it's cuz he's normally a bass guitarist?i saw skillet live so... xD but as a bass guitarist(who generally doesnt use a picck)i can see how he wouldn't think to have a back up except with the other guitarist(when red's lead singer comes out you can see him going to her for one xD)

[@ateamdestroyers1]

1:50 "you dont say!?"

[@Emcmillin09]

lol alot of the audience from knew the song

[@littlepunk759]

@xHybr1d

[@markswartzvids]

Sorry make that 2:58...hit wrong key.

[@hollowgroundxX]

Wow lol a christian rock band playing a cover of Metallica Enter the Sandman...idk why this shocks me but Metallica is a Thrash and now Nu-Metal band and for skillet to do a cover is...Pretty damn cool (Coming from a Metallica Fan) (= you go Skillet.

[@stevek4423]

Black should be black, and white should be white. Being lukewarm isn't what He prefers.

[@sarah5allsports]

Then stop watching them..

[@XxDEMONSxHALFBACKCKx]

Should have done it harder

[@FlyingV555]

Still not as good as MTV Unplugged.

[@sicdullboy]

If having one shitty band ruining a good song wasn't bad enough then have 2 shitty bands butcher it. Cliff Burton is turning over in his grave

[@peytonstewart2831]

Not a big Skillet fan these days but if you can listen to Of Beauty and Rage and tell me Red is a bad band, you're brain dead

[@Ryan-1999]

U lack in music taste
