Metallica headlined the Rock In Rio festival on Friday night, and video of the band’s full performance is available.
The group opened the 18-song set with the 1983 track “Hit The Lights” before steamrolling through classics like “Master Of Puppets”, “Sad But True” and “For Whom The Bell Tolls.”
Metallica topped Friday’s bill that also saw performances by Alice In Chains and Ghost.
Up next, the band will guest on The Howard Stern Show on SiriusXM this Monday, September 23, as they promote their new 3D film, “Through The Never.”
A couple of months ago, Stern Show Executive Producer Gary Dell’Abate revealed Metallica will perform two of its classic songs live on the program.
Following its recent premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival, "Through The Never" will debut in IMAX theatres across North America for a one-week engagement starting Friday, September 27; it will then expand into additional theatres on October 4.
The movie tells the story of a band crew member named Trip (played by Dane DeHaan) who is sent out on a mission during Metallica's live set in front of a sold-out arena: to meet a disabled truck and retrieve a particular item. However, the routine task turns into a surreal odyssey when Trip's van is hit by another vehicle, and he subsequently finds himself up against a death-dealing horseman. As Trip flees through desolate streets, he has only his wits to help him avoid the deadly horseman and deliver Metallica's cargo.
