Hello Everyone

Post by Metrock »

Hey, I'm Chris and it is good to be here. I have been a fan of Metallica since '91 when I was 9 and my brother pounded the Black Album songs into my head. After I saw them for in concert for the 1st time in '96, I started to follow them even more closely. At that point I was around the age where I could go out on my own, buy my own music, etc. So I went out and got all the Metallica albums that I was missing. I was soon to become known by my friends as "the guy who only listens to Metallica."

However, I'd say in maybe the past 4 or 5 years I have diversified my music selection a bit. I listen to a lot of different kinds of music. I have a collection of music dating back to the 30's that includes many genres: Rock, Rap, R&B, County, Oldies, Big Band, Bluegrass, Pop, Big Band.

But when it comes down to it, Metalllica is still my favorite current band. They are the only ones that I will go see in concert again and again. No other band I have seen can compare. Bands like "Rush" play some incredible live music, but they are dead when it comes to interacting with the audience. What Metallica does best is getting the audience to interact with them. this is what makes going to a Metallica concert fun.

Last Metallica concert I went to was 2 days ago at the KROQ Weenie Roast. For a radio show, it was still a very good performance and song selection. I was up on the lawn, but it didn't matter. The energy coming off that stage penetrated through me as if I was in the front row. But I must say that my highlight of the night was being a winner of a Meet & Greet. All the guys were so cool. I just wish I didn't forget everything I wanted to say. It sure went by fast.

Well, thats just a bit about me and such. When I get around to it, I'll post a more thorough concert report.

See you on the forum!

-Chris
