Fuckin love Jason Newsted! My favorite Metallica bassist. His energy, presence, and his unique vocals are unmatched. Really hope for a new Newsted album, and hope they put their last album on Spotify one day. Love this!
@@denverscott37 opinions. That's what they are for. Cliff is one of the bass greats, but for anyone under 50, Jason or Robb are probably the faces they associate with Metallica. Cliff died more than 35 years ago.
@@murfdog19 it's my understanding according the band the current obstacle is lack of management or major record label representation with deep enough pockets to cover studio time or something. Basically their material is ready, it rocks, and the right person needs to pull their head out their ass and book the studio time and get the touring deal. That's my understanding. Fingers crossed
@@Whisky_4_1 That is definitely not the issue. Jason Newsted's net worth is 60 million dollars. He has a studio built into his mansion and has had it for many many years. He continues to receive royalties worth hundreds of thousands per year for the albums he contributed to in Metallica. Jason can fund his own project with no problems as money is not the issue. He has so many contacts in the music industry that securing a solid management company to handle booking, touring, album pressings , production shouldn't be a problem either. There is however another issue and none of us are in "the know". I'm leaning more towards commitment. I don't think he's committed enough to want to tour an album and with 60 million dollars, why should he be? He's been there, done that.
@@MetalMcfly fair point, but i do recall 10 years ago Jason mentioned he did not want to, and I'm paraphrasing, hemorrhage cash in order to just tour and support his project. Plus in a recent interview he expressed hope to be signed by Qprime management for tours, promo, logistics....it's hard running a whole road show solo
He said it will be a 'new project' not the Newsted band with the old guitarist/drummer, new members, new material and probably new name, this was a one off concert to mark 10 years since their only album
@@mikerauter1859 Wow it's been ten years since that release??? I just remember seeing him perform in NYC at the high line ballroom like it was just a few months ago. Wow. Glad I have the concert shirt to rock.
I'm so happy that he's going back to his roots and restarting the Newsted project. Not only that, but that he's actually playing Metallica songs! Here's to hoping he plays with Metallica in the upcoming future, because Creeping Death just isn't the same without him!
@@cleidiomaralves4132 I wouldn't call him the face, James Hetfield is the face of Metallica, but the band is definitely not the same live without him. He had the best energy on stage and the best backing vocals!
@@jack_the_pug5213 every Metallica show is not the same and doesn’t have the same energy and intensity without him. His appearance in the 30th anniversary shows is a testament to that. It seems to bring out the A game in all of them.
Jason still looks and performs great! Felt like he was channeling his inner Lemmy on the 3rd verse. Always a joy to see these guys still doing their thing and enjoying bringing great music to the masses.
For me Jason will always be my favorite of the 3 bassists from Metallica, he had it all man! He brought so much energy to Metallica his playing was always totally on point and his vocals were intense! Newsted fuckin rules!
It hurts knowing Jason is still playing hard as ever and he’s not even doing it in Metallica. I really hope there’s some kind of one off show they could do with him one day, cause I’d be there without a second thought!
the sentiment is understandable, but he is the one who walked away. and rightfully so! i dont think anyone really expected metallica to still be around and actually relevant in 2023. \O/
that was so so so good, he has always been an awesome performer 🤘🏻 and back in the day Jason's "windmills" w/his super long hair were some the best parts of those live shows 😂
what does cliff have to do with it? stop romanticizing everything. cliff is not among those who wrote the song. jason is a much more successful bass player than cliff. if cliff hadn't died, it wouldn't have been so exaggerated. like I said, stop romanticizing everything.
Bro you still kick ass. For me Cliff was gone by the time I truly discovered Metallica and you were the bassist from my early years. I love Rob for sure but you will always be the og in my book. You were the only real choice post Cliff. Thank you for all the kick ass memories and rock on bro!!
Rob is a great guy and a helluva bassist, but Newsted’s scowl, intensity and insane backing vocals were Metallica’s spark plug onstage. He made a HUGE difference to the band.
I am glad he gets to play this and lars not step in for the royalties haha. Glad that Jason is alive and thriving, he is a class act and has the heart of a lion 😎🤘🔥♥️👏
Very good performance of Whiplash by Newsted in Ft Lauderdale. I would have liked to attend it but I don’t live in Miami anymore since I moved back in Oct 1995. I haven’t been down there since 12/2008.
I used to headbang hard at every show I went to for over 20 years, but when I hit my 40s, I had to stop. I never injured myself, but I’ve had back issues and I knew it was only a matter of time if I didn’t pull back and acknowledge that I’m not 25 anymore. I just didn’t want to go through what guys like Newsted, Anselmo, Araya, Mustaine, Hetfield, etc went through with surgeries, pinched nerves, stenosis. I miss it but it’s not worth the risk. It seems like the older guys who can still bang (Angus Young, Kerry King, Scott Ian) are all short. Lower center of gravity?
Great statement brother, I'm w you on all that. On the rare once a year death metal show I get to I'm slowed and more fearful of the pit, etc. Fuckin Sucks.
Yeah, but Injuries happen, we recover - minimize the risk (by being in good shape, strength, cardio). 40s are fine, nothing like 20s, but what to do - Hetfield/Rob are pretty active on stage at 60. One leg squats, jumping, playing on knees, etc... Not bad. I would say all is worth it, not place for the fear, just little bit more careful :)
@@jutjub22 I'm in pretty good shape...I'm just saying that headbanging is a dangerous activity as you get older. It's really not good for you at any age, but goddamn is it fun. Hetfield stopped headbanging in the '90s and he still needed surgery...he does it a little here and there nowadays but it's controlled...he's not whipping his head around like it's 1989.
@@keefriff99 never thought that it is that bad to head-bang. Guess you are right, I did some research on Hetfield. Still they did so many shows, as crowd, we witness few concerts here and there a year..
Anyone remember that time Jason got on stage with Metallica to play Seek & Destroy and a Faster badass version with Pantera ? Definitely worth the watch! Dimebag on vocals too!
I recall reading an interview from Jason a while back saying he just wasn’t physically capable of playing these tunes. I’m very glad that he’s found the energy and ability to keep on 🤘🏻🤘🏻.
he didn't say he couldn't play the songs, just that he couldn't do the same level of touring with the same amount of energy he had in his 20s. but then again neither can the rest of metallica at this point
He can play the songs, but he can’t headbang nonstop with a heavy bass strapped to his shoulder for 2-1/2 hours. He had injuries from the headbanging that he had to have surgery for and let heal. You can see how he can “nod” a bit but the days of throwing his head back and forth with abandon are over. That’s what he meant mostly.
Jason newsted is the reason why Metallica black album was so popular.... the bass guitar lines are heard and played well 👌 Jason newsted is one of my favorite bassist
Sorry,... that is inaccurate. He contributed one bass intro to that entire album. Fun fact, Bob Rock had to really guide Newsted on what and how to play many bass parts. This has been mentioned by Newsted himself.
@@ernieball7567 newsted played those bass guitar lines and the team recorded the bass guitar lines and mixed the bass guitar lines and Jason newsted is listed as the bass guitar player on the album right ...so I am confident that I am correct ... and many people I know told me if it wasn't for the bass guitar lines and bass guitar tone on the album they would have never bought it...
@@shawnhuff3920 I am referring to your comment “Jason was the reason …etc..etc.” I get it, he’s your favorite bass player, fine. But he is is not the reason. Particularly when Hetfield and Ulrich were driving the whole thing.
I love how Jason basically inherited this song..
He was always great when he got a chance to sing this. Yeah he does own it!!
And Creeping Death, too. He always sounded great on early Metallica material.
He has owned the song.
Well...no.
He got it in the divorce XD
I got serious Lemmy vibes coming from this performance. This was intense!
Clearly ! Awesome vocals !
Motorhead covers this on the undercover album. Its fucking awesome
Me too !!!! Right away as soon as he sang!
It’s Jason bro. Why do people always say dumb shit like this “getting serious Lenny vibes” or etc. it’s Jason only Jason vibes.
@@DrDanka69 You are 100% tone deaf if you can't hear Lemmy in Jason's vocal approach to this song. That's a "you" problem, not everyone else's.
And Justice for Jason!!! A truly remarkable musician 🤟
A True legend!
🤘
Fuckin love Jason Newsted! My favorite Metallica bassist. His energy, presence, and his unique vocals are unmatched. Really hope for a new Newsted album, and hope they put their last album on Spotify one day. Love this!

@@SMVoid Jason is my fave, too!
@@denverscott37 Yes, he said Jason. Let's give Jason his props. Cliff gets plenty of love already.
Jason is 60 and he still got it🔥🔥🔥
I was not aware how much I missed his voice on a Metallica song, fuck yes man, still amazing!
Listen to S&M vs S&M 2. Newsted's backup vocals make a huge difference.
It's the one thing I think Metallica really miss: Rob and Kirk try but just don't have the vocal ability to do backing live.
The live shows are so lacking now without Jason’s backing vocals
I always loved it when Jason would take the mic for this song because he gave it that attitude factor.
I had the privilege of being there. Wow. 2 hours straight, mostly kick ass new stuff. Can't wait for the new album to drop. Absolutely zero filler.
Is there a new album coming?
@@murfdog19 it's my understanding according the band the current obstacle is lack of management or major record label representation with deep enough pockets to cover studio time or something.

In my opinion, Newsted was Jason's best project outside of Metallica.
Agreed wish it was more successful jason is a power house his vocals kicks ass underrated he's a perfect.front man
Echobrain were pretty good
No, Voivod was.
@@gregmeir
His vocals are generic and one-dimensional - he should stick to bass or actually expand his vocal range beyond one octave.
All his projects are weak,newsted was the best.
Thank god metallica royalty’s put the food on his table
So happy that Newsted band is back, hope they release a new album
Jason has already announced that He has been auditioning some guitar players and drummers and He ready to make Heavy music again

Jason is a treasure! Protect this man at all costs, we need new music.
I remember the Black tour in the early 90s. Jason made Whiplash and Seek and Destroy his own. Glad to see heavy Jason back!
So good to make this music living and to see Jason again, thanks a lot for the sharing ❤
Still oozing with energy and health❤! Stay healthy as always Jason Newsted!!!
Jason was the reason I even got into Metallica to begin with. What an awesome dude and great musician
Same here!
Same!!!
Pure Heart and Soul - always has, always will be
Best version I've heard in AGES
Glad to see you enjoying playing music again, Jason. You'll always have full support from fans like me. Please keep it up!
great to see Jason playing again. thanks for the footage.
Hopefully this might be a comeback for what ever he's up to
He's up to this.....
For me Jason will always be my favorite of the 3 bassists from Metallica, he had it all man! He brought so much energy to Metallica his playing was always totally on point and his vocals were intense! Newsted fuckin rules!
Correction 4, although Ron never appeared on an album
Same man. The Jason era of Metallica is what I grew up on and I was In awe of the man's stage presence. When he left my interest faded in the band
Hell yeah! Jason and the fellas!!! Bring back the Newsted band...Metal needs you! 🤘💀🤘
Metallica needs him too ;)
Jason Newsted still rocking!!!!! Hi Is the man!!
Jason...such a cool dude. Nothing but respect!!!
Goddamn the metal worlds needs Jason Newstead to keep making metal!!! Newstead jams hard!
It hurts knowing Jason is still playing hard as ever and he’s not even doing it in Metallica. I really hope there’s some kind of one off show they could do with him one day, cause I’d be there without a second thought!

@@RavenSnore You're probably the only one who thought/thinks that lol Because we definitely did
@@rbeforme even Metallica is surprised they are still relevant. :D
@@rbeforme Probably not. They were on the verge of collapse when Jason left.
If he didn’t leave we’d never get the song colossus
Thanks for posting, Scott. It's remind me 1992..
that was so so so good, he has always been an awesome performer 🤘🏻 and back in the day Jason's "windmills" w/his super long hair were some the best parts of those live shows 😂
A bit sad he can’t do that windmill shit anymore… the pain must have been real 😢
Now we have Trujillo doing the spin on seek n destroy.
😂 it’s so stupid
I am so glad that Newsted reactivated in 2023!
what a perfect little song. every note right where it should be. brilliant
Thank #DaveMustaine
Motorhead vibes!!Jason is fantastic!!!
🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟...fans from Malaysia
Очень Хорошо Исполнил! Newsted это тот еще человек который заставил нервничать металлику в 2000х! Молодец жму вам руку!!!
Hearing how Newsted combined vocals and bass, I finally clearly see Motorhead’s tremendous influence on this song!
Sucks to see Jason get old, he was the WILD man on stage, just as much as CLIFF!! I miss those old days!!
The dancing shoes bit reminded me of Hetfield 😂 they had such an amazing chemistry on stage it was insane
I thought the same thing 😂 Seattle 89 lol
My favorite musician. Glad to watch Jason again🫡🤘🤘
Long hair is coming back!! Hell yeah
Cómo amo ver a Jason tocar ...
This is one of my favorite songs, thanks for the upload, totally awesome
NEWSTED ETERNO!!!
O VERDADEIRO METALLICA!
O único NEWTED!!!
Thanks for posting
So glad to see he reactivated the band. I own the debut LP, "Heavy Metal Music" they released back in 2013. Jason is THE man! Hails! \m/
Having Jason as a FL resident just makes me so happy!!! He’s a huge reason I’m the player I am today!! We luv ya Jason!! What a Faqking Legend!!!
Jason King!!!
Way to go, Jason.

Jason’s basically the most brutal bass player ever
No. Lemmy was. And forever will be.
