- First Time Seeing Metallica - Enter Sandman LIVE in Moscow 1991!
I can't even fathom how many people were there. That would never happen for an artist today. It just goes to show how legendary Metallica really are!

More than just the sheer number of people there, the historic significance of this concert is next level. The former USSR had literally just undergone a failed military coup as one last hurah to try and restore communist control. After that coup failed, about two weeks later they held this concert. It was if I am not mistaken the first rock concert there (ever) and was the first time fans could legally listen to Western music.
its was the second major rock/metal festival in russia, the first was in 1989 with the moscow peace festival, which included, Skid Row, Cinderella, Scorpions, Mötley Crüe, Ozzy Osbourne and Bon Jovi
One guy in the audience with the long curly hair huge face was in the ACDC concert in Buenos Aires, Argentina i think...wow crazy this guy travels a continent 😮😮😮
Oh sorry ACDC live in Riverplate, Argentina 😂
I remember it when it happened. It was like America slapping their dick on the table and saying "See what you have been missing"
For me, the fact that there were around 1.6 million people there is belittled by another fact that the concert was free to attend. They didn't make a single penny from this in terms of tickets sold. This, for me, is the single most significant concert to date.
However, rumours are abound that people are still looking for their cars and they should be finished clearing the site in another year or two.
On a side note, I was at the Monsters of Rock in Italy 2 weeks before this show happened. I want to thank the US Marines who helped make my friend Marks', and my day, a considerably better experience.
Not totally free. That's been mistakenly reported even by the band. There were 50K paid entries(see the people toward the front wIth yellow wristbands) the rest were free.
This was a free concert and it wasn’t just Metallica. It occurred during the fall of the Soviet Union and was pretty much a “welcome to the free world” concert and it was the hard rock and heavy metal bands who welcomed them in.
Not totally "free"- that's a mistake, repeatedly told, even by the band. There were 50K paid entries (wearing yellow bracelets) The rest were free.
To those of us that lived through the Cold War era this was a historical event!
It truly was! Then there was hope! Faith in the future! Makes me want to cry how it has developed. :(
Your reaction is almost as epic as this concert. Monsters of rock. When I listen to Metallica my neighbors listen to them as well.
Same!
Even the soldiers were headbanbing 😮😮
Before 1988 Metallica was not played on any radio station. It was word of mouth that you and your friends found out about them. Metal Magazines, record stores, passing bootleg tapes, and seeing them when they came to your town was the only way to see them. They took Moscow by storm.
Look, I'm a 70s guy. ACDC, Areosmith, Stones, Beatles. Never been a super heavy metal guy until I saw and heard this video. This is without a doubt the greatest live rock video I have seen. Enter Sandman is now one of my very favorite rock songs.
Chills and tears on so many levels ❤
Such a historical event!!!!
Unfortunately 53 deaths. Concert held at Tushino Airfield outside Moscow. Metallica is the greatest band ever witnessed on this planet 🤘🤘🤘🔥🔥🔥. I have seen them 18 times….last time this June. Next one; Creeping Death from the same concert
Upvote this post. It answers a couple specific questions the poster asked in the video.
Kirk's solo made 34 ladies go on labor, and they weren't even pregnant.
This album was part of the soundtrack to my senior year in high school. 1991 was epic.
Pantera was there that day too.
And they made a video too.
And it's called..... DOMINATIONNNNNNNN!!
React to it!
My friends and I watched this on pay-per-view, Pantera blew everyone away.
I'm not crying. You're crying...!
Great vid.
Cheers!
Only found your channel recently but the minute I saw you reacting to Metallica I looked for this video, so glad it's here. Just mind blowing.
Once they ran out of printed tickets, it was a free show. You just had to show up. Little did they know, an entire country would show up.
The next song in this set is "Creeping Death" and it is incredible. Thanks for sharing!
I read somewhere that it was 2 million by the time AC/DC and Pantera came on. Kick ass concert!!!🎵🎼🎶🎸🥁🎹🎙🎧🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Pantera,, ac/dc, the black crowes, and Metallica performed at this show ( monster’s in Moscow ).
🤘🏼💀🤘🏼. 💥. 🤘🏼💀🤘🏼
Lovin' your reactions, nice too see a young person discovering old rock, Metallica at their best, Jason Newstead is a bass god, shame the bass is turned down.
We used to cover this in our band & it always went down a storm
This was Monsters of Rock 1991, AC/DC performed later, same night. The Berlin Wall had just fallen, Western Rock had been outlawed in the USSR until a year or so earlier. When announced, they sold 500,000 tickets, ran out of tickets, so the next 1.1million came in for free. It was held at a Russian Airbase just outside of Moscow (thus the heavy military presence), and the helos performed double duty... security, and air conditioning for the packed masses of people. Read somewhere that about a dozen people died (all from heat exposure). If anyone questioned whether the Soviet Union was in fact dead as a political force at that point in time, this concert erased any doubt.
Haha so glad you told me u did this one..this was great 😁😁😁😁😁💙💙💙
They've been using that opening music "The Ecstasy of Gold" since 1984.
This is one of most incredible live bands Ive seen every tour from Master of Puppets to the Black album in Toronto they rock for sure.Much love from Canada❤🇨🇦
Listen to the S&M album.... AWESOME!!! Totally appreciate your interest and enthusiasm for this awesome band, cheers from America
It was the first rock concert ever in the former USSR. There were other bands also.
My favorite ❤❤
Dude, chances are you wont even read this comment, but I only want to say I like your videos... NOT just cuz of the music, but because you watch OTHER CONTENT. You watch science, environmental, Games, glitches, all types of music, and most of all - you give your honest opinion and how it effects you emotionally.... from your head right out of your mouth, unfiltered. Good shit. HONEST REACTION, whether I agree or not, I like that the content MEANS something to you. Appreciation. Not enough people are honest like that, so props to you and your channel. Youre a human among many, many robots. So cheers... also, you see the genius of Metallica. Ive seen them live since "Kill 'em All"
Thanks for the kind words! I’m glad you enjoy my videos!
@@MollyBoyTV - I dont know where youre from, but its likely not America. Intelligence is getting hard to come by. Its cool to see someone with something to say. Ill keep watching my friend.
they weren't the only ones to play. Black Crows, Motley Crue and AC/DC also played.
Love this one!
Can you imagine being on stage in front of 1.6 million people inhaling their first taste of western freedom to your band. Absolute “Rock Stars”!!
THIS is the concert i was talking about, Pantera was here also. You gotta see them do domination at this show
I can't believe I didn't watch this video when you released it
Out of the million 58 people unfortunately died . The chopper was used to monitor the crowd and 58 people died unfortunately . The down draft from the chopper was also used to circulate the air for the crowd .
Thought that was another concert near the Kreml? Might be wrong though.
One of my favorite Metallica songs. 😊
Facts bro. ... You can't replicate that.
Hope you get into Iron Maiden as well.
This is the ultimate. This is epic.
Literally EPIC. ... never again to be duplicated
You gotta do Creeping Death from the same show 🔥
Hey ur piercing isnt on yet! Omg Nikki left my phones on you n its playing all ur vids. 😅 enjoying yhem again! Loopy af too. Hahaga
My favorite version of Metallica's songs are live is live from all different shows. For example Master Of Puppets live from Seattle 🔥 gotta check it out 🔥🍻
They sound better live, then on album....every time. Just check Metallica trhou out the years, now days James song is realy realy good and everytime I see them I just get more and more impressed.
Many people never made it home after the concert. The Concert is on the Runway of an Airport.
You weren't born yet I'm sure. I was there. Watching it gives me the chills.....and neck pain 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
You’re right. I was born in 2000 so 9 years too late 🤣
@@MollyBoyTV Not even a twinkle in your daddy's eyes yet! I'm just pissed we didn't have cellphones. Imagine the crowd videos from inside the crowd?
@@zedsdead6969 It’s genuinely hard to imagine
@@MollyBoyTV Not having cellphones or the amazing videos that could have been had? Maybe both. We had pagers and lighters when it got dark. Miss those good days.
@@zedsdead6969 Not having the footage we could’ve had
This concert was the first rock and roll gig allowed after the Berlin Wall came down.
The location of the concert was in the Tushino Airfield (airport) in Moscow.
And it was free for everyone. 💯😎
2nd there was the Moscow peace festival in 89
I think I was ~ your age visiting such concerts.
You should react on the Loveparade in 1996 in Berlin.
Can you imagine the power of the speakers to reach that whole crowd!!!!!
1:06 that's my favorite part of these reactions 😂😂😂
Say what you will about our old music, no one else pulls those kind of numbers, refering to crowd size!
Nice
1.6million people...that held in moscow airfield .
The music at the start is from the film the good the bad and the ugly its called the ecstasy of gold and metallica use it before every live show
I enjoy your reactions; have you reacted to Mike + The Mechanics The Living Years (official version)? You might hate me after you watch it but I'd love to see your reaction.
Jason Newsted 🤘🔥 ❤
No one sounds as good live these days!!
1,6 million people ...... no one else
I beg to differ. Do more research.
I grew up with this music! what good times 🤩
Rod Stewart at Copacabana Beach (1994) (3.5 Million)
Metallica, AC/DC, and The Black Crowes in Moscow (1991) (1.6 Million) ...
Love Parade in Germany (2008) (1.6 Million) ...
The Rolling Stones at Copacabana Beach (2006) (1.5 Million) ...
There's a few missing off that list, mainly Jean Michel Jarre with 3.5 & 2.5 mill
The Red Army acted as security and kept the crowd from rushing the stage.
My friend Cindy has seen Metallica live 47 times. No shyte.
Turn the volume up a little bit next time so we could bang our head and enjoy it with u 😅
you find that much land at tushino airstrip i believe
It is unbelievable that there were 1.6 million people at this concert.
Give Tesla What You Give, and Love Song live a listen!!
Might I suggest iron maiden "fear of the dark" live in Brazil? You won't be disappointed, peace.
Have to do the Pantera video from this concert as well if you haven’t done it. I feel it’s better than the Metallica video. Maybe just me feels that way 😂
There was like a brief period of cross-cultural sharing called Perestroika I think where the US and the former Soviet Union engaged in one another's antics and this fit the bill to a tee. It would be cool to revisit that spirit and time because it seems like more than a million Russians were down for this, and we may have been down for them. Let's go, music.
💪
Here's an oddity my son loved Metallica and Tenacious D and Vivaldi in High School
Eddie and prince to me were the best on guitar w SRV & jimi hendrix coming in close behind. But they were limited only by their own bodies. Needed more fingers ect.
Queen's pulled in over 1MIL. Rolling Stones in RIO 2MIL.
react to the whole gig
When you play this , speakers must be on full volume, my car shakes when i play this 😂 and listen to Whiskey in the jar by Metallica ,
I just want to try to answer the question you ask at 1:20, and I actually believe that Metallica could have gathered more than 1.6 million people, even though they are getting old. And its probably safer to gather such a massive audience for a live show now a days, since people don't let loose and go crazy like they did back in the 80's.. Nowadays, they just stand there with phones and filming, hoping to get likes on SoMe... Oh beleive you me I wish I was born in the 70's dude.. growing up to heavy metal and beeing able to go to concerts when they released the best albums...
And also, your reactions are awesome dude.. You should react to these songs, The Call of Ktulu, ...And Justice for All, The Frayed ends of Sanity, Sab but True No Leaf Clover and - Human
Keep up the great reactions dude :)
There were zero deaths at this concert. I googled it to make sure.
Is that Google US or Google Pravda?
I was there in ‘91, just got back. What did I miss?
😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂
it wont only kick your eardrums........... it will kick your ass
OK if you like the guitar in this go watch and react to "Holy Wars... The Punishment Due" by Megadeth.
No death and hardly any injury, russians can at least have credit for what they do well and crowd control is one of it.
Red Square is pretty huge bruvs
If aliens came to earth and asked what is rock and roll? I would show them this video
Yes it’s metal but it is the pinnacle of hard rock.
This entire concert was monumental
If I remember right on the number of deaths, there were 53 that died that day.
Really sad...
Over 50
If you want to hear a good cover, listen to the sound of silence by Disturbed. You might be too young to even know the original, but it's by Simon and Garfunkel. Go listen to the first and then react to disturbed's version
There's more than that. That's just where they stopped counting 😂. It's rumor that was twice😮
These were the same kids who were instrumental in the fall of the soviet union. The ones who climbed on tanks and shit. They had no idea who metallica was or what they were even saying. One thing for sure, they were ready to party after all the bloodshed and they caught on real quick!
This was held at a military Air base..hence the people in uniform
Yup, and people are still leaving as we speak 🤣🤣. got to be the largest record crowd at a concert ever!
Give or take a couple hundred thousand
And this was '91. Almost before the Internet. This is just fans. And the collapse of the Berlin wall 😊
I have heard the helicopters was to help cool the crowd.
FUN FACT: Metallica came to my town to perform a long time ago. During the show they shattered the glass ceiling!! 🎸 So needless to say they were banned from coming back. Which was bs.... What did they expect? IT'S METALLICA!!
Estimates put the number closer to 1.9 million, and I believe only 6 people died in that mass of metal heads
I don't know if anyone answered your question, but there were 50 deaths. That's sad and horrifying, but honestly, considering there were1.6 million people there, 50 isn't bad.
Oh there were deaths. Around 50 or 60 if I’m not mistaken.
Also if you ever want to be totally cool and outside the box checkout King Crimson “21st Century Schiziod Man”. It’s old but mind blowing and they are British and will totally hype up your channel 😊
there were deaths reported, People in the front row took so long to leave the concert they died of old age.
there was indeed no deaths in moscow 1991
It’s sad knowing how relations between the west and Russia have gone downhill after seeing the potential of how much better they could have been after seeing something like this.
Yeah bro
Rocking that red cap backwards
You ABSOLUTELY have to watch
“Break Stiff”
Limp Bizkit-
Lol
You’ll love it but the resemblance is not too far off !
Yes good concert bands were that good. Same as studio....or probably better. And yeah, show up for a concert, but you know we didnt have your options.
See: Hells Angels working a concert. There were injuries there.
