Yet here you are commenting on that very performance that someone else was nice enough to film for you with their phone, and upload for you to watch 🤦🏼
Fr. Thankfully people like this person are so tied to their phones that we get to see it. I would never record more than a few seconds. Too busy thrashing around acting a fool for that. Gotta get into the music and forget the phone
@@alexsilady9906 You and the 25 fools that like your comment act as if watching that contradicted @Scipio s opinion. Which is bullshit, and you know it. What you also know is that there was a time before every fool took pictures and videos of shows. What you don't know is, is how great and wild concerts were in the pre-smartphone era. And frankly: one can watch this out of curiosity. Not because it'd be a cinematic highlight.
@@KNEESOFBEES1989 mate I was about 5 people back from the stage, half of the show we were watching an empty stage, they were all on the other side, or one of them will come over for a minute or two and then move on around the stage again. I legit had a view of Lars for 4 Songs both nights before he moved to another drumkit and was completely out of view. We didn't even see the four of them all together at the same time, you only watch one of them (who's ever turn it is on our section of the stage). For such an expensive show, it was honestly kind of disappointing
@@KNEESOFBEES1989 honestly I think the further back you are, the more you will see. There are also some raised platforms as part of the stage, try not to stand in front of one of those and get in front of a lower lying part of the stage, I would guess that it would be much easier to see what's going on from there.
its my all time favourite song, yesterday morning i wondered about how cool it would be if they played it and then i was sitting in that bench telling myself to not be disappointed if they didnt play orion and then those bass chords started...
I was totally flabbergasted it took me seconds to know what they were playing because it was like so so unexpected, truly mind blowing. I was as close to the stage a bit to the right. I went totally nuts
Big fan of everyone who is just experiencing music with their mobile phone in their pocket and being one with the band. I completely identify with them
Awesome! I’ve got tickets for me and my best friend next year in Seattle at the last stop of the US Tour. My friend just retired from the US Air Force after 27 years and this is my retirement gift to him. He did the same for me when I retired from the Air Force in 2018-we saw them front row in Sacramento. It was one of the coolest things I’ve got to do in my entire life.
Say what you want but Metallica keep doing whatever they want. Opening with Orion is so perfect and that is the perfect tribute to Cliff each and every time they play it.
I'm gonna see them next year in Foxboro. First time ever. I don't even give a shit that I have nosebleed seats. I've wanted to see them live for 23 years and never could. This just amps me so much. THEY STILL GOT IT
Jesus Christ those guitar harmony parts are right on the money. Love it when James and Kirk mesh like that. Gives me goosebumps from head to toe. Long live Metallica, and thanks guys for continuing to be there for all us 80's metalheads. Have a safe tour. See ya in Atlanta!
You are one the luckiest people to watch this legendary band my guy!! Orion for the opening, really not expect it. Anyway what makes me can't stop smile is that yellow drum set for Lars Ulrich..hahah!! I just can't stop smiling to watch this legendary band..Metallica rules!!!!!
I'm tired of all the Lars hate. He has my respect just for the fact it's 40+ years after the band started and he is still playing huge sets with heavy songs. It isn't identical to the recording; who would want that anyways? But he still serves the songs and does them justice. It's rock n roll at its finest. Tbh, w Lars, I think a lot of the elitists just don't want to admit that it takes more than being technically precise on an instrument to write a good fucking song.
Absolutely and I am too getting sick of the lars drumming hate and the Kirk wah pedal hate aswell. Seriously annoying, it doesn’t matter what these guys do… there will always be someone hating it
@@Mattube1983 It's so lame to surf around on the web looking for different ways to insert "Kirk wah joke" or "Lars's drum fill wtfff". I wish those people would log off and make a band of their own if they're so damn enlightened.
@@Takkun1138 I don't think those people could form a band, they probably can't play music. They just like criticising other people. It's rock'n'roll, it's live music, it's played with passion and it's awesome. I love it!
Totally agree, back then there weren't people standing around filming the band on their phones, people were just totally lost in the music which is how it should be. Take a photo then put your phones away people. Enjoy the moment. The band will appreciate it too. They want to look out from the stage and see people having a great time, not standing round. Enjoy and mosh till you drop. And I hope they play Orion ❤ when I see them in June 🤘🤘🤘🤘
Lars has been using a click for a few years now, thatd why you don't hear that much nonsense filler and why the band doesn't slow down or plays faster anymore.
Wow..great to see them boys back on stage for this new world tour🤘🤘..the stage is awesome unique🤘😎..great shots filmed from the snakepit..You lucky..🫢 awesome setlist..i was hopping to see more songs for the 72 seasons record..but..they sticked to the old school songs more..none the less..great to see them boys back on stage full force🤘🤘🇺🇸
seeing Kirk playing the 59 LP he just got is awesome .. so good to see it getting played instead of some rich accountant (medical professional) locking it away in a vault
I was there. I can safely say listening to Orion live is one of the most exciting concert experienced I have ever had in my life. It carried all of their power and mystique and became a whirlwind of memories for everyone there.
@@michelwr8535 No I was in the front of the general floor. Bad sound, everything around me thought the same.. :(. Last year at festivals was waaay better

Wow! I was not expecting the first song of the night to be Orion!!! That's awesome though!!! Hope you enjoyed the show!
Spettacolare e inaspettata ❤🎉
I've actually thought about that idea before if I was ever in a band, opening a show with that song. Definitely interesting!
I've seen them 5 times, never have they played Orion. I was lucky once when they played call of ktulu, which was AMAZING
@@davidstockdale4187 i didn't see you there.
Cliff is proud and listening from the sky! One of the most epic songs of all time!! Love and Respect forever and ever Metallica! ❤🤘❤
Cant imagine Metallica bursting onstage and opening with arguably the greatest heavy metal instrumental alltime only to commence holding my phone up.

This is the best voice of a 60 years old man i’ve ever heard.
its ok ronnie james dio sounded better
@@Septicshites true, James sounds good but Ronnie is one of the greatest vocalists of all time.
James has a great voice but there are many that are better than him even at that age or older.
Fanbois gonna fanboi tho
@@Septicshites boooo
@@YomommasStankPoon or everyone has a different opinion. Prob the ones you like suck in my opinion. But you’re a fanboying
WOW THAT STAGE SET UP IS HUGE
Yep and it sucks ass for floor tickets
@@bradsefton414 Why do you say that? I got floor Tix for Chicago

holy shit opening with orion is amazing they barely even do that song or open with it
its my all time favourite song, yesterday morning i wondered about how cool it would be if they played it and then i was sitting in that bench telling myself to not be disappointed if they didnt play orion and then those bass chords started...
@@thebushmaster0544 I can only imagine how you must’ve felt when you heard the intro tape
Well they are doing the "2 nights, different set list" thing, so I'm sure we'll be hearing songs they haven't done live in a LONG time.
I was lucky enough to see them playing Orion live in 2011
You can tell they wanted us to react to Orion being played first
The yellow drums really suit Lars. And how cool is that, Rob was facing you during the solo?!
I was totally flabbergasted it took me seconds to know what they were playing because it was like so so unexpected, truly mind blowing. I was as close to the stage a bit to the right. I went totally nuts
Opening with Orion is really unique and interesting. Very cool. They sound very good. That stage is massive!
Regardless of how you feel about there new album/direction, you gotta love Orion opening the entire tour.
I was there and I got so excited when I heard Orion, it's my fav song and they rarely play it
same!
Also my favourite
Just home from this show, opening with orion blew my fucking mind. Cant wait for Saturday
Lars has a yellow drum kit.
So awesome!
Metallica is special, and this tour is going to be special. Kicking off with Orion, the 360 stage, unique set lists… the boys are going all out!
When the main riff hits & the crowd explodes…literal chills. For Cliff!!!!!
Big fan of everyone who is just experiencing music with their mobile phone in their pocket and being one with the band. I completely identify with them
first time as an opener in 12 years!
In whole world.
Always here for Orion. Can't get enough of it.
Awesome! I’ve got tickets for me and my best friend next year in Seattle at the last stop of the US Tour.

Say what you want but Metallica keep doing whatever they want. Opening with Orion is so perfect and that is the perfect tribute to Cliff each and every time they play it.
They will be opening the entire tour with Orion, The Call of Ktulu, Suicide and Redemption and To Live is To Die!!! Mark my words!!!
That was awesome!! Nice tribute to Cliff
They really should play more instrumentals it would help preserve James vocals if they want to continue.
How awesome that Metallica is getting together so many people around the globe! Perfect and big greetings from Ru!
every age group, every race, color, and creed, everywhere on the planet , come to see Metallica.
I'm gonna see them next year in Foxboro. First time ever. I don't even give a shit that I have nosebleed seats. I've wanted to see them live for 23 years and never could. This just amps me so much. THEY STILL GOT IT
You'll love it! Download will be my 5th and 6th time seeing them, and they never disappoint live
It’ll still be great. The one time I seen them in 2019 we were up as high as you could possibly sit and it was still an awesome show.
Opening with Orion is sick as hell!
Just got home from the concert. It was amazing!!!!
i didn't see you there.
Jesus Christ those guitar harmony parts are right on the money. Love it when James and Kirk mesh like that. Gives me goosebumps from head to toe. Long live Metallica, and thanks guys for continuing to be there for all us 80's metalheads. Have a safe tour. See ya in Atlanta!

I didn’t expect to see Aurora at 7:54 rocking with Metallica haha

He is rude, conceded and ignorant
@@legiski9374 The irony of you calling someone ignorant when you can't spell "conceited"...
Orion is such a powerful song. Is also the name of my deceased son who must be there, high among the stars of Orion !
So sad to hear that brother.
I named my one only son Orion in tribute to this masterpiece 😬
pretty mellow crowd, in 86 when i saw master of puppets all you could see was hair and headbanging every seat in the house

@@yourmetalsister2958 Lets goooo Sis!!! Thatagirl!
The disbelief was real, cried my fucking eyes out. Only makes me wonder what song they will open with tomorrow?!?!
Played accurately like on the album. Even Lars is doing well.
Lars has been using a click for a few years now, thatd why you don't hear that much nonsense filler and why the band doesn't slow down or plays faster anymore.
@@homerc9101 yep. Was gonna say he’s clearly playing to a click & he’s actually on time
@@joshkorin7547 what does that mean?
@@diegaspumper8501 he has a click track in his in ear monitor basically a metronome to help him keep time.
@@joshkorin7547 oh ok thanks I understand now.
The last solo in this song is Kirk's best all-time imo
Wow..great to see them boys back on stage for this new world tour🤘🤘..the stage is awesome unique🤘😎..great shots filmed from the snakepit..You lucky..🫢 awesome setlist..i was hopping to see more songs for the 72 seasons record..but..they sticked to the old school songs more..none the less..great to see them boys back on stage full force🤘🤘🇺🇸
Great footage Erynn!! They sound better than ever! Ageing like good wine. Cheers from Argentina bro!
Metallica for life baby!!!!!!
seeing metallica live for the first time after listening them for 9 years, and them starting the show with orion was overwhelming as fuck
Still my favorite song! I crank it every time I hear it
Love Metallica. Great quality video. Thank you for filming this! 🙏
wow, I was there too. Its amazing seeing them and hearing they're music irl
i didn't see you there.
Thanks for posting!!
This is hands down my favorite song by them ! Great performance ! 🖤
Thank you for posting this. Went to every NHRA National event in Sonoma growing up. So many memories.
Wow!!! Orion!!! thanks for sharing.
Opening with Orion... that right there lets you know you did the right thing by buying a ticket to the show.
This is going to be their biggest tour- we may be saying goodbye to our favorite band. Opening with Orion sends a message.
They won't stop trust me, they love it too much 🤘
IT WAS FIRE master of puppets was a great ending and i hooe i will be there saterday too
Amazing!
Damn that was epic.
seeing Kirk playing the 59 LP he just got is awesome .. so good to see it getting played instead of some rich accountant (medical professional) locking it away in a vault
Was there, great concert, loved every minute.
i didn't see you there.
They are all so far apart in these stadium shows. I’d love to see them on a smaller stage again
Legends, what a song to open up
I was there. I can safely say listening to Orion live is one of the most exciting concert experienced I have ever had in my life. It carried all of their power and mystique and became a whirlwind of memories for everyone there.
First time ive herd them play the entire song from start to finish. The intro was epic af. Took me straight back to my high school days.
MIRA ESAS CARAS SABES COMO ESTARIA LLORANDO DE LA EMOCION YO, GRITEN SALTEN VUELVANSE LOCOS
Si en el resto del mundo no saltan, si no es Argentina o Chile el público está muerto.
I love this song!! Thanks for sharing, by the way, great spot!
Awesome view! Thank you for uploading 🤘
Wow the best thing ever starting with Orion!!
Thx for the upload
Yours Truly,
🤘🤘
Ah man what an amazing experience. Thank you for this treat 💪🏽
Best way to start the tour
TY so much for sharing
Simplesmente espetacular, não há palavras para definir uma abertura de show com Orion!
That drum kit is beautiful
Waw great vid' mate ! Thanks for sharing it
This was excellent! Thank you for sharing!
Wow! What a blessing! 🤘🏼🔥💪🏽
I had a great evening and this was the perfect start. Too bad that most of the evening the solo's by Kirk couldn't be heared.
This is beautiful to listen and watch, thanks for sharing🤘🏼
thank you for recording and sharing this. super cool. cant wait to see them in september for my 9th time
omg what a song list!!!
Man I can't wait to see them in august!
thanks for sharing! What a treat to start the show with Orion 😭😭😭
Was so cool!! Unfortunately the sound was really bad in the Arena but to ‘know’ it is Orion was cool!
In the Snake pit you will hear the monitoring sound. In the other area's the sound was great!
@@michelwr8535 No I was in the front of the general floor. Bad sound, everything around me thought the same.. :(. Last year at festivals was waaay better
Phones everywhere and hardly anyone moving. How times have changed. Thats Metallica playing Orion....!
I love Orion and to open with it is bad ass!! The greatness of Cliff🤘🏽🤘🏽
Opening with Orion is such a flex.
Can't wait to see them this September 🥹🥹🥹🥹
Wow thanks for sharing! 🎉
Chills down my spine! Started with a bang! Just wow Metallica! I Fucken love you!!!!
Magnificent
That stage set is so cool
It's really not, if you're not in the 'snakepit', you can't see anything and have to watch the screens most of the show
amazing man!! great footage, a year since i saw theme here in Chile, hope they come back soon lml
Kirk and James
that opening is sick!!!! epic show!
Thanks for sharing.
Chills!!!!!
Epic dude Epic I can’t wait to go see Metallica in Arlington TX also will you be seeing them again on April 29th
Yes I’ll be there tomorrow April 29th!
so weird how the sound quality changes when the cell camera zooms in and out
Welcome back dude! Hope you are posting King Nothing as well.
so cool man because i was not expecting to be able to watch any of this for about a month or two
Damn that’s epic
Awww, I want to go to a Metallica concert! Hurry up and come to Aussieland!
Sick, they sounded amazing!
