Location: Anaheim, CA
Date: 27 Nov, 2004
Venue: Arrowhead Pond
Other bands: Godsmack
Report: Chris Capriccio
I went to Anaheim show last night. It ruled. Metallica kicked ass as always.
James messed the lyrics up on Holier than Thou but it still sounded awesome.
Metallica played a pretty varied set list. There were a bunch on songs in there
that I had never heard live (Disposable heroes, god that failed). Rob played a
small bit of orion during his bass solo.
The weird part:
As Godsmack was finishing their set up, some wanker that looked like ryan
seacrest jumped up on stage. There was a film crew filming him. They had
dumped a bottle of water on him earlier to make him appear sweaty. He climbed
up onto the far corner of the stage with a crappy strat and started hoppin
around. He tried to make it look like he was playing (mind you, he was not
hooked into the pa, he was just strummin away). At the end of what looked like
a guitar player having a seizure, he muttered something like "goodnight
chicago." He climbed off the stage and kissed some blonde chick. Everyone
around me was simultaneously said WHAT THE FUCK.
Any idea what that was all about...seems unrelated to the other movie posting on
