Location: Rosemont, IL
Date: Aug 28, 2004
Venue: Allstate Arena
Other bands: Godsmack
Report: Greg Dittburner
Godsmack started at 7:30 and were a lot better than i
expected. Sully got the crowd going before he gave
the stage to Metallica after about an hour. They
opened with Battery, then James got the crowd into it
by leading into Fuel, before dedicating Leper Messiah
to the boys in Godsmack. They left the stage for
about a minute after playing 10 songs, including
Frantic and St. Anger from the new album, before
returning with Master of Puppets and One among others.
The pyro for One was kick ass. They played a few
more then left, but came back to play Jump in the Fire
and close with Dyers Eve. It was my first metallcia
show and it lived up to what ive been told about the
amazing live show.
