The setlist is freaking awesome dude As are the guest appearances, especially Jason. The biggest surprise though for me is carpe diem baby, even bigger than the unrealesed DM song.

Jörg, are you attending those shows?

No Andi, didn't win. But honestly, first I was totally pissed off about it, but now it might be better, since I have no time and other priorities. But we have an member there. Nicolè is banging her head for us.

Pretty nice one . For me also Carpe Diem is a bigger surprise than already overrated Hate Train. What I think is that on the other shows they will play another three outtakes and we will have a digital EP with four unreleased Death Magnetic songs (there's already a title Beyond Magnetic) . That would make sense.

Holy shit, these four shows were so spectacular that I'm just totally speechless . It's great they invited Bob Rock to play some St. Anger songs, also Jason on Whiplash, Ozzy, Dave and even the most memorable version of Hit The Lights ever with Ron and Lloyd. Who else does that? Fuck, Metallica never fails. I hope there will be an official DVD with all the shows because every performance of every song was a history.
