f- metallica, crowds will be leaving early for this one. their time has come and gone. please go away Lars & co
with a lineup like that, they may have to evacuate irvine.
FUCK YOU METALLICA!!!! OH YEAH, YOU TOO LARS, YOU GREEDY LIL' BASTARD!!!!
Ass. Dont people know this by now? C'mon KROQ. You call yourself SoCal?
Wow, when I was younger I used to listen to KROQ because they DIDNT play Metallica. They deserve each other.
why are you guys all damn haters for metallica?? honestly.. people make mistakes they are all damn human beings... and yes.. lars has his issues but you can hate the whole band for whatever he does.... and metallica is old however, people still pay big bucks for them.. so calm down and go hate on someone else.. like for damn mother
HAHA.. Only reason i'm going is for metallica... Half the other stuff sucks anyways... Metallica may have cried in the past, It doesn't change the fact that:
They're one of the best selling bands of all time!
100 Million albums sold!
Gold or Platinum in over 40 countries!
7 Grammys!
Since 2000, Metallica's album catalog sales are only second to one band, The Beatles!
Their songs are most requested for Guitar Hero and RockBand!
Since 1990, Metallica are one of the 5 top touring acts, in tthe world!
They've played sold out shows in 50 states and in over 50 countries to more then 30 million people!
They're the number #1 artist at Rock Radio!
5% of ALL airplay consists of metallica!
It's going to be awesome..
If anyone here is planning on leaving during Metallica and you have good seats, could you email me so we can meet up and I can take over your seat? I got terrace seats and really NEED to be closer for Metallica - email me at thehmp@gmail.com
Thanks!
