So very cool brother happy you got to experience that!! I got to hang with Metallica for two days in 2008 here in LA. I was staying out here helping Rita (Dime's hag) start up the Dimebag hardware company. Long story short Metallica played a venue here called the forum (where the stadium concert scenes from the movie "rock star" were shot) two nights in a row on the death magnetic tour. They put us on the bands "friends and family" list, we saw the show front row and had access to the F&F room where it was open bar and every music and movie star you can imagine was hanging out. Most epic part was seeing the guys get off stage, toweling off then chatting with them all about the set each night as they cooled down. It was the most amazing experience of my life, i'll prob never top it and thats okay too. The guys were all class acts, very nice and man they still bring it live. Thanks for the post, I'm going to share with my FB friends!
My first show ever was Pantera at Fair Park Coliseum in 95 I think. It was the most amazing show. Where the Dallas Freeze played hockey. No one has ever knocked that show out of the top spot for me.... until maybe now.
What a fantastic experience for both of you. Ryan you even got to touch you rock legend and play his actual guitar, that's insane fun. Thanks for sharing Ryan.
maybe so. There was a a contest a couple months ago for an indie band to go on this tour for a few dates. Mothership was set to win, but Local H made a final push on the last day and stole the win. Not sure if the Dallas show was part of that leg of the tour, but seeing Local H gave me McKayla Maroney face.
Dude, awesome! I hope I win snake pit passes. I also donated a bunch of money on crowdrise to increase my chances. Hopefully I don't win one of the prizes that is just seats. I already have tickets! Happy for you man, that had to be amazing.
16:00 interesting. Justin must be controlling the wah backstage. Weird. I'm guessing because it's tough to run a controller out there. Do you recall seeing any on the outside of the snake pit? edit: just wah I think. no idea, the one metallica song I've never tried to play. edit again: I just saw the wah part. weird. wonder why he didn't control the wah himself for the I disappear part.
Weird. Wonder why he didn't do it himself for the I disappear bit. I can't wait until the 7-29! It'll be my 10th Metallica show. Hopefully I finally win snake pit passes or M & G.
joseph fonseca I was on the same side as you, and I agree. most of those people acted like they were at a funeral. I even had a guy threaten me for standing in his wife's "spot" I was like wtf dude this is GA I can stand wherever I want.
I hear AT&T Stadium is a horrible place to see a concert due to the poor acoustics. I'm guessing it sounded OK being up close? Awesome concert, lucky you!
This video is amazing
dude i was literally like 2 people in front of you! best day of my life
It was a great concert!

+blackenedmartyr everywhere there was a mic there was a wah next to it

My friend won the snake pit upgrade from the 5th member fan competition. It could happen!
I’m seeing them in Chicago in a couple months
That up close beautiful Warwick bass action. Brings a tear to my eye.
It was crazy!!!
I admit I'm to cheap to spring for good tickets...what do ones that close go for these days? Congrats!
+Brick Breaker I have no idea, my friend won the upgrade to SNAKE pit through the Metallica fan club.
Ryan the luckiest guy in the world.
I'm jealous about you...unfortunately I have not ticket for their German tour beginning next year :-(
My friend was the lucky one! Through Metallica's fan club he won the upgrade to snake pit and the Hardwired Experience!
I was there! Across from the other side of the snake pit. With the normal not cool people. 😂🤘

It was an amazing show. I've never been that close to a band in 20 yrs of concerts!
Awesome man! I saw them a couple weeks ago when they were in Colorado. It was a fantastic show. I definitely couldn't afford the snake pit though lol.
neither could I! Ronnie won the upgraded tickets through Metallica's fan club!
EPIC!
It was insane! Thanks for watching!
Metallica and Cowboys! Love it!
Awesome vlog!!!! 🤘🤘🤘
Thank you so much!

+Jake Hogan were in Canton Texas. About a hour east of Dallas on I 20
i'm jealous ! i wish I could go to see them but no, i have wounds goddammit! i love that intro song ecstasy of gold by ennio marcone
It was incredible.

+DiMo28 there was a ton of bass where we were. There were wedge monitors on the stage by us with only bass coming through
Better video and audio than @MetallicaTv ...
haha It was super bass heavy where we were!
