Setlist: Yes

To start this off....WOW!. What a show! Absolutely the most amazing thing I've ever witnessed. As soon as the lights went off and Michael Kamen came out, there was already a great vibe in the air. While they did the same setlist, it didn't matter much. The first half of the show they did some of their hits like Master of Puppets and Hero of the Day, but the second half of the show is where everything kicked in. The second half swarmed with amazing heaviness while the orchestra played rhythms and melodies behind them. The highlight of the night...without a doubt....For Whom The Bell Tolls. From the heaviness of Master of Puppets and Sad But True, to the melodies of Nothing Else Matters and Hero of the Day, it was all around the best of the 5 Metallica shows I've been to and the best of any concert I've been to. Adding a little comic relief to the show was Hetfield when he starting playing the ending part of Enter Sandman before he was supposed to. Only two complaints from the whole night......1) Nobody I talked to could really hear Kirk's guitar that well, neither could I. 2) The chick in front of me smoked more than a chimney and it was getting annoying. But not even those factors could ruin the greatest concert in music history.
