Featured Review

Being a professional philosopher and having written a chapter for 'Metallica and Philosophy: A Crash Course in Brain Surgery' I'm always ready to ROCK, but also ready to have my mind BLOWN! Metallica live never disappoints by not only bringing the heaviest sound my ears, but also having a set list that highlights the profound themes they've explored lyrically over the last 26+ years -- from 'One's meditation on phenomenological solipsism and euthanasia to 'Master of Puppets's Manichean picture of a bifurcated will to 'Cyanide's expression of existential nihilism.

This show kicked ass from start to finish. My only complaint was that they didn't play long enough and there were no encore performances. Worth every penny I paid to travel over 700 miles in two days and see the greatest band of all time.

Two and a half hours of classic Metallica. The songs were tight and well performed. The special effects were over the top.

Hands down, this has to be one of THE MOST incredible events of any kind I have ever seen and I'm 47. I have been a Metallica fan since '84, thru the years with both Cliff and Jason and seen them play many times. I travelled with my 16 year-old son over 800 miles to see Metallica play and they simply blew away everything we expected, in every way.
I am amazed that Metallica has come up with a show that will blow the fans away as well as ever after over 30 years of playing and still keep it fresh. If you are a Metallica fan, you owe it to put their new show at the top of your must do list. Do not miss their new stage and show that goes with it.
There was not a slow moment the entire two and a half hours they played, it felt more like 30-45 minutes. They played songs from almost every album (unless I missed it, no St. Anger) and it was virtually non-stop. Amazing how much effort they put into the two shows in Vancouver.
I definitley will go next time and won't miss an opportunity to see them again.

well i guess we all get a little older ,and so does the Band.
The Sound was amazing ,and the Stage show, like always great....just what you expect from a Major player.
I have seen them quite often, and quite frankly the Vancouver Audience is a lame duck....
the Concerts in Europe are by far better, and are way more fun!!!
Don`t really know why the choose Vancouver for the Movie shot...got some special deal or some??
anyways good luck with the Movie!
after all...Metallica are always a great Band for a a live Concert !!

For this show, it was an all day festival in which bands would play on the main stage [Metallica was the closing band] and I stayed at my spot on the rail for 9 hours until Metallica played and it was worth the wait. Metallica had an amazing setlist and pyrotechnics and they were full of energy and you could tell they loved doing what they do best \m/. They sounded great live and Hetfield's voice is sounding great! There is a good bond between the band and the Metallica family, and it was just the most fun I've had at a concert! Next time they have a show in their own backyard, SF, I will be there!

Third time I've seen Metallica. Last time was on the Black album tour. This show was truly amazing. We are so lucky to be one if four cities to be chosen for the Full Arsenal. Best stage show I've ever seen and I've been to a lot of shows and of course they rocked like we all knew they would. Thank you Metallica and I can't wait for the DVD o the show !!

Being aged to almost 50 and blessed to have grown up in a major metropolitan area, I have had the pleasure of seeing all the big metal bands from Judas Priest and Iron Madien in the early years to the likes of Metallica and Megadeath in my later years. I can honestly say that of all the live shows I have seen, Metallica takes a back seat to NO ONE! Simply put, THEY ARE THE GREATEST METAL BAND OF ALL TIME! I have seen them 7 times now and have never been dissapointed. They continue to put on an aggressive and powerful show that keeps you on your feet for hours. If you think its not worth the money, you have never been more WRONG! Spend the money just once and you will be begging to spend it again as soon as you possibly can.

Metallica puts on the best show you could possibly imagine, no other band even compares to be in the same league as 'Tallica. I last seen them perfom in Indianapolis in '09. If Elvis himself was at a Metallica show, his mouth would drop. I'm flying almost 1,000 miles from where I live to go see them at their "orion music and more" festival. They're literally that epic live!!
