Beers!

Post by Luvbeers »

Hey there,
I am originally from California but have been living in Vienna, Austria for the last 8 years. My first show was 1994-07-23 at Cal Expo in Sacramento with Suicidal Tendencies and ahem.... Candlebox. Alice in Chains was supposed to open, but dropped out at the last minute because of a Staley horse binge. Needless to say Candlebox was practically booed and shoed from the stage. Kevin Martin even stopped the concert in the middle of Far Behind, in tears, to beg the crowd for a little respect. It was 100 degrees F that day in Sac and I think the crowd was a little anxious for Metallica.

Just looked at the setlist in the database... those were the days!

Setlist:
The Ecstasy of Gold
Breadfan
Master of Puppets
Wherever I May Roam
Harvester of Sorrow
The God That Failed
Kill / Ride medley
For Whom the Bell Tolls
Disposable Heroes
Man in the Box jam
Seek And Destroy
Kirk's solo
The Unforgiven jam
Nothing Else Matters
Creeping Death
Orion jam
Fade to Black
Whiplash
National Acrobat jam
Sad But True
One
Enter Sandman
So What!

I was right in front of the stage and was drenched with many of JH's half drunken beers.

Anyway I will be at the show tomorrow in Vienna. It will be my 10th concert and hopefully a good one! Please play creeping death!!!!

PS. I grew up in El Cerrito around the corner from the metallica house on Carlson Blvd. (3132) I think it was Kirk's mom's old house or something. Anyway after school I used to buy candy at Pic-N-Pac Liquors nearby on the way home and I would often see this crazy long haired rocker dude buying beer.... I am thinking this was 1983-84 and also the guy, as much as I could remember looked like James. On the RTL album there was even a special thanks to Pic and Pac Puke.

Doesn't look it like it and Pic-n-Pac hasn't changed since the 60's.
