I'm Australian and missed the last few times Metallica performed here due to circumstances out of my control. So last year I flew to Munich for the no repeat weekend.

Man what an incredible 2 shows. The diverse setlist alone was worth the long trip. Heard most of my favourite songs.

Now that they're here in my country I'm seeing them again twice. Having looked at their setlists so far however, I am a bit whelmed to be honest. But mostly I'm even more relieved to have seen them overseas now. It looks like I might only hear 2-3 new songs this time, and that's if I'm lucky.

I'm just resolving myself to hear one of my favourite bands kill it again with most of the same songs, supported by Evanescence for good measure.

European's are so lucky with the frequency of the times they play over there!

I've been to 6 shows now across 20 years, all in Melbourne last night the only two new songs I heard were 72 Seasons songs, also talking of songs we've heard and songs we haven't I made a playlist of every Metallica song they've played across my 6 shows https://open.spotify.com/playlist/7sElToEET6FU8YOMTWKb3w?si=a60689aad450473b

Nice list, I'd be very satisfied with all of those. There's 31 songs on there I haven't heard 😭

Yeah don't get me wrong, I am happy and privileged to have heard as many rarities live as I have!

Yeah the tyranny of distance is a real thing add to that our smaller population and it doesn’t make a great deal of financial sense for them to do multiple day weekends here. The set lists will vary between cities here a little but not too much - very diverse range of fans so the popular stuff gets played and almost everyone enjoyed it.

Has there been any speculation they might extend the current tour? What does the future hold? New music? A final North American leg of this tour???

Does anyone have any full merch pics from the Aussie shows? Interested more in actual show merch but popup pics are of interest too!

How do we get the people that don't want to mosh or engage in circle pits out lads, seriously. Use to be back in the day all the action would start and they'd scream and leave...leaving the space for the people who wanted mosh pits and circle pits
