Ironically, more than half of the kiddos here who are always speaking about how they are strong, faithful fans and how they love the band and so on, have no freaking idea who that big guy, John Marshall is and the history behind him. Then, immediately, everyone is Googling so they can condemn me and curse me in the comments hahahaha and say, we all know who he is bla, bla, bla... hahahaha
@JPR17 I Don't Even Need Google & Started As A Roadie If I Am Correct Than Joined/Creates Metal Church Than In Late 80s & Early 90s He Filled In For James While He Had Injuries Sustand To Him & I Am Gen Z
This was about 4 months after James suffered 3rd degree burns from a pyro accident when Metallica was on tour when Guns n Roses in the summer of 1992. James couldn't play guitar while recovering from the burns. John Marshall did a great job. I saw Metallica twice in 1992. I can't believe it's been 32 years !!
I'm sure James felt weird without a guitar but at the same time a lot of relief to just concentrate in vocals. Also, Jason's bass sounded great here, Not like the album if you know what I mean...
Man, the camera crew goes to great lengths to show John Marshall as little as possible. Now, 30 years later, he is the most interest aspect of this performance (aside from James singing without playing guitar).
@@luisveas869John and Kirk have been lifelong friends, and as such, there are many photos of them together. Kirk *does* look like a hobbit next to him. 🤣
Read history. James slightly never wanted to play guitar. He wanted to sing. This short period of non-guitar for sure is the most interesting period for James.
To my knowledge, he doesn't like much singing or at least have an aversion to it. Especially, if that doesn't involve just deep voices and screaming. Still, he might have discovered his baritone later and encouraged himself to sing higher notes
I can't help but feel, those shows until he was able to play Guitar again, confidently live, would have been the hardest he ever did in his career, now just on full display, vocals only, and having to perform on such a huge stage, Figuratively and literally, no guitar to hide behind in his comfort zone. Utter respect and hats off to the man.
Though I was disappointed to see two of these performances (guitarless James) I did feel it would be a unique experience to be one of the few to be a part of… this looks like one of those very shows, trees in background look like the Rose Bowl 🤔
@@RoadWarrior77 He was recovering from the burn injury from the pyrotechnics. The guitarist is playing at the same speed, but is perhaps slightly off in the phrasing from how James attacks the riff. This sounds solid to me.
@handtogocam yes, I was at Download festival the year Lars was sick and Joey Jordison (mostly) Dave Lombardo n the Drum Tech played in his place. Despite being over n hour late to start, it was well worth it to see that unique night live too.
It wasn't the first time he had to do this live. On the Master of Puppets Tour when he injured himself in a skateboarding accident he had his arm in a sling and had to have John Marshall cover for him on guitar while he just concentrated on vocals.
He can play a fill for shit but hes a decent metal groove drummer. He just falls apart when he tries to get too cute with fills he is trying to make up on the fly. Unlike neil peart who meticulously constructed every fill and plays them perfectly, lars comes off sloppy bc i dont think he ever wrote a fill lol. Just wings it and fucks them up constantly. This song is a great example.
Gotta admit I miss Jason. He was like the color commentator of the group. He’d get the fans riled up and had amazing backup vocals with his own style. He certainly wasn’t just “the bass player”. A lot of guys in my high school had his same haircut with the shaved sides and long on top. It’s too bad him and James butted heads so much.
Why do you think? He is playing all of James' gear for obvious reasons! He always crushed it when filling in be it the Puppets tour (broken arm) or this short run during the back half of the GnR/Metallica Tour.
This was after James got burnt, I saw them in Minnesota where he just sang, the encore was enter sandman and he played the guitar for that one song. The crowd went fucking wild and you could barely hear the song. Hardly any internet, no social media back then so nobody really knew If he was gonna be able to play again.
Jason put a thousand percent into his time with Metallica -I don't think the guy knew or knows how to do anything half-assed. And John Marshall is so underrated as a metal guitarist. His time with Metal Church showed what a great writer and player he is. And yeah it's definitely weird to see James without his ax! Great video!
Just saw these guys over the weekend at Lumen Field in Seattle. Three decades later, they still kicked our teeth in with their classics. Papa Het is the man.
@@wicklash9065 Dude. Metallica was my favorite band since I was 2 years old. Enter Sandman was the shit. I learned how to play guitar at 12 years old and can play all their shit now! Still my favorite band ever. Created a metal band with my buddies in high school and we played some kick ass shows
James has the accident at the olympic stadium in montreal and in 2023 i seen them for the 1st time in the olympic stadium in montreal it was great to see him back there playing but at the same time wondered how messed up it must of been when the riot happened
😍🙏👍🌟♥ Is this for real? My God I can't believe I am finally seeing this. This is 32 years in the making. Thank you so much and God bless you a million times for posting this great and precious concert video. My friends and I were there. This was at the Pasadena Rose Bowl on October 3, 1992, coheadlining with Guns N' Roses with Body Count and Motorhead opening the show. This tour I truly believe was and is still the epicenter of late 80's/early 90's hard rock live music for so many reasons. The rock/metal community was delirious when this tour was announced. Montreal is evidence of that as the riot showed just how bad people wanted that tour only for Axl to pull out because of technical issues with the monitors. We showed up late to the Rose Bowl and I can still remember being annoyed with our driver. Our driver promised we would leave earlier as Los Angeles traffic is war in itself. It took us an eternity and a half getting from our car through the lines, security, and being lost once in the stadium to finally get to our seats. Motorhead started only minutes after sitting down. I can still remember getting out of the car in the parking lot and hearing Body Count playing their last songs suspecting that we were not going to be able to see any of Body County. Then our driver demanded we leave after GNR started "Paradise City" to beat the traffic to get out of the parking lot for us only to get to the car as GNR is kicking a** in the background to be stuck in the car/parking lot because of traffic for the next full half hour trying to leave. That was it, I never went with him to a concert again, ever. This concert was the concert of all concerts and we are being plagued by Murphy's Law. What I would do to be able to personally tell Metallica, Body Count, Motorhead, and Axl "Please from the bottom of our hearts, release the entire pro shot concert video of this show or at least from other UYI tour shows we haven't seen." 🏁🏁🏁
I was sad last year after James play Fade to Black in the Olympic Stadium in Montreal for the first time 31 year after he burn i didn’t said anyting to the crowd !!!!
This will sound weird, but seeing James just focusing on his vocals and not doing both vocals and guitar was interesting. In an alternate world, lets say James just focused on singing and not singing / guitar playing... Watching this makes me feel he could deliver more with his vocals without having the guitar on him.
Yeah, this was round about the time when James had that accident with the pyrotechnics on stage at Montreal, Canada, during the performance of Fade To Black! Jamesie boy must've felt weird not having the explorer guitar in His hands, man! 😅 He still pulled off a great job though! 😉👍🤘
Seeing James without his guitar is like seeing Batman without his utility belt! Still cool but still not quite right haha. This was Marshall's second go with this. John filled in for James also in 1986 when he broke his wrist! James is clearly weirded out too not knowing what to do with his hands or how to act. Haha

You mean the tin can amps? 😂
@@joseesparza7488no, the amount of no bass in the album go hard
@@jauws4200 I give you that. It gives it a rustic no frills feel
They always had good bass live and up till the black album studio recordings lacked bass even in the cliff years outside of KEA maybe.
Oh yeah we see... such a pity. I always feeling un confortable for him when listening to that album
Man, the camera crew goes to great lengths to show John Marshall as little as possible. Now, 30 years later, he is the most interest aspect of this performance (aside from James singing without playing guitar).
Yeah, it's like Kirk is the only one on guitar in this vid
And when James has his Axe they never show Kirk! So fascinating
It has a simple answer....Marshall is 6 ft 5 inches tall...Hammett and Ulrich would look like hobbits at his side....
it could be that they only had so many cams and really could only get so many people in the shots so naturally they went with the main members
@@luisveas869John and Kirk have been lifelong friends, and as such, there are many photos of them together. Kirk *does* look like a hobbit next to him. 🤣
Yep. The people who edited the footage are complete idiots.
James like "I don't know what to do with my hands"
Lars: Ditto!

@@youfilin it's the opposite.

There were 2 important people:
weird James without guitar
interesting john marshall hated by cameraman
I don’t think the cameraman could look up that high❤
@@mztweety1374😂😂
What I hate is when during the GUITAR solo they show every other band member excepth the guy playing the GUITAR.... also Larz is wearing a diaper.
Yep. Whoever edited the footage ought to be fired without pay because they did a terrible job.
this is soo funny..
Mr. Marshall. A true trooper. And playing with his family’s amps😂
I'll make sure He starts playing with Your amps anymore of it, Mister! 😤

the way that even without his guitar james still does the scoliosis back bend that he does when having to use the mic stand
Habit
Jason Newstead the type a guy who will wear a Metallica t-shirt to a Metallica concert
It’s a Pushead so it passes
Thor without his hammer
Don Blake
His hammer is the microphone, genius!
George Floyd without crimes
Zakk Wylde looks more like Thor than Hetield and because that guy have huge arms muscles like Arnold
Absolutely 👍🤘( lion has to roar )
Man, Jason's energy is unmatched.
Metallica screwed up treating him like shit, massively under used talent.
James was channeling his inner Glen Danzig here. I dig it.
I loved watching young Lars behind the kit. He gets a lot of shit but he was a solid drummer in his younger days & was fun as hell to watch
This
People really forget just how great he was. Coke or not that dude put alot of energy into his playing
He can play a fill for shit but hes a decent metal groove drummer. He just falls apart when he tries to get too cute with fills he is trying to make up on the fly.

I actually think he’s playing real well now. Newest Hit the Lights video he’s was awesome!!
*Somehow I find this lineup just utterly satisfying.*

@murilo why was he filling on this tour?
@@coyrex1250This was after James was in The pyro accent I believe.
Yup, lit up in Montreal, saw them in Toronto later in the summer, he had healed up enough to play the encores, crowd went nuts

James is the best frontman ever and Jason is my favorite bass player.
We can only agree here
@@Tiredsoverytired yes they’re great too, just different tastes
so we all hate Cliff now?? Cliff is one of the if not the best bass player of all time
Finally!!! Can hear the bass!!!🙌🙌🙌🫡
James without guitar looks like an mtv grammy award salesman
is anyone gonna talk about how Lars is pretty much performing in a diaper?
Omg! Literally was going to type that!
Coked up in his underwear. Playing like he actually wants to play the song.
That's actually a pair of Ted Nugent loin cloth briefs. 😆
He's European.
I love the guitar tone on the Black Album tour
John Marshall did a great job on this! If you were just listening, you wouldn't know it wasn't James.
😂😂😂🎉
Agreed.
Further proof that a very skilled guitar player with James’s set up, doesn’t come anywhere near to sounding like him
Bullshit
bro, lars at minute 5:24 is tired and james starts singing and lars plays the same but is super exhausted LOL
Its staged.
Its showman ship.
He did that all the time
Uh no
I f****** love that drum kit. I don't know much about instruments but Metallica always had such cool gear
I was listening to that Kirk solo at the end saying to myself - I know that from somewhere!! Thankfully you added the hint at the end for me!!
Weird to watch James without a guitar :(
Love the growls
So weird watching him with no guitar..
He doesn't know what to do with his free hands...
Apparently he's not used to be without his guitar
SOUND IS PERFECT🎉
He sings even better without guitar here, he can now focus on his singing more.
Stunning audio quality for a 93 concert.
It's not '39
Why is it stunning?
There are Elvis performances that sound 'stunning'

I went to the Foxboro Show and John filled in tremendously... He just Towered over everyone and filled the stage up which was actually pretty cool.
Brutal performance 👍👍👍
Nothing could stop this epic tour...not even JH not being able to play guitar.
RIP 80’s era Metallica
This was early nineties
I saw this show in Oakland and what a show it was!
🤘😜🤘
John Marshall of Metal Church filled in right after that Accident in Montreal Guns N' Roses/Metallica Tour
This show is the pasadena show, one of their best full version is on youtube
Wow, gran presentación del este quinteto en su segunda etapa con Khon Marshall, gracias por esta gran versión de HOS
Some rock stars look weird without a guitar - James Hetfield
While some rock stars look weird with a guitar - Layne Staley
Jason was a beast, really great crowd work.
Nice video and Happy New Year!
John Marshall mandou bem, foi sacanagem o cara mal aparecer nas filmagens.
Terrible video editing.
Metallica were troopers for continuing on with the GNR despite all of the chaos
너무 멋있어 ❤❤
Almost wish John Marshall would have been added as permanent 3rd guitar, like heavy metals Lynyrd Skynyrd.
You mean like iron maiden? It's been done already lol
Harmonies would sound great with a third guitar. Always sounds thin during puppets and justice.

John plays it exactly like James. If i didn’t see that it wasn’t games playing, i wouldn’t have know the difference.
While a great performance, this just shows how much James is the sound of Metallica. No god crunch.
Damn thank you for this! Been trying to find this for years!
I was at this show. This was my first concert.
I miss Jason in Metallica he fit like a glove!
John is playing the Man Into Wolf Explorer - if I had my choice of James' guitars to play, that's the one I'd choose, as well. 🐺 💕
5:24 so cool
Andreas Kisser do Sepultura quase tocou nessa ai. Teria sido fantástico
Jesus Christ :49 Jasons Pushead shirt and absolute pure heavy fucken metal. Sound engineers killed this. Where was this??
Jason’s energy. He’s a beast
To think that James didnt play the guitar and sang only, for a while, its batsh1t crazy. Whoever doesnt know how that did happen must be wondering...
WOW. JASON ... WE MISS THAT GUY ........ JASON WAS MORE METALLICA THAN METALLICA ITSELF

this was after james got burned on stage
@Shaquille O'atmeal there was a pyro incident where james got burned really bad, you could hear guitar strings popping from the heat
Yeah, it was the night they played in Montreal with Guns N Roses, I think. Pretty sure a riot broke out that night, because Axl couldn’t hear himself.
