Why celebrate an album that happened 20 years ago; why not move foward with music rather than get stuck in the past?Leighton wrote:Why not select their last concert? Don't worry about answering, we already know. Given it was a 20th Anniversary celebration, it's little wonder there are more songs from outside the last 15 years. But the 12/19 itself ruled out your notion of "almost entirely" old school setlists.
And why not choose their last real tour? 2004? Again, don't worry about answering.
And on another point, if you don't like where they're coming from musically now, why sieze on today's setlists to try and back you up? Surely their new slant on their style would turn an old fan off seeing them performed now on the new school stage.
The only time an old-fan rambling makes any sense is when they were there and saw it themselves. Other than then, I just have a good chuckle at them.![]()

Re: What Does It Take To Be A Fan?
danallica does have a point... they never play all those great songs from load/reload no more. i mean i'dd love to see fixxxer, wasting my hate, bleeding me, hero of the day, where the wild things are, attitude, ... live, but they just don't do it. the weird thing is, how cool they sound on the album, they sometimes sound bad live, like until it sleeps and unforgiven 2... those didn't have the best sound live imo.
but like I said, i'dd love to see many load/reload songs live, but i dont think metallica wants to play them

Re: What Does It Take To Be A Fan?
thats just like after touring AJFA,they got fed up playing them i suppose,songs were too long and repetative...they didnt like most of the songs come 91
They didnt play most songs from St Anger,as they were the same...plus they werent very good..
Nowadays,they just play songs what they like,and what fans dub as *Classics*
Which they are,its not so bad is it?

Re: What Does It Take To Be A Fan?
So step outside of the Metallica box and think about this question in reagards to other bands. Are there other bands that you guys consider your selves fans of, yet only like some of their music?

Re: What Does It Take To Be A Fan?
That rarely applies to me, I'm huge fans of many bands, and love about 98% of all the material that they put out. But one band that would fit in there would be Exodus, some of their mid-day stuff I am not too fond with. I love TOTD and SHKM however!MetDream wrote:So step outside of the Metallica box and think about this question in reagards to other bands.
