When you get a ticket online you get an email with directions and a code or something along those lines, seems more fair

Rehashing the same auld stuff year after year. "Die! Die! Die!". I'm 37 almost, and the Die! Die! chants got old for me in 1995 or thereabouts. I've seen them play these live a few times, I've seen countless live videos of them playing those live. Again and again and again.

I'm 39 and i ****ing love the Die! Die! chants,one of the highlights of any Metallica show imo. This stills sends shivers down my spine 6 and a half years on.

Perfect apart from Ain't My Bitch & Bad Seed(imo)

I'd love to hear The Call Of Ktulu actually - WITH the orchestration.

I've loved Ain't My Bitch since the Point show in '96,it rocked live. Not sure why i have a soft spot for Bad Seed,maybe it's because of the intro to the Cunning Stunts dvd or i just like it. At least it rocks along,i've no time for Ronnie or Mama Said,they should be consigned to the history books imo.

They played it at Knebworth in 2011(without Orchestra obv.) and it was savage,bum notes aside.

Fair enough. Mama Said is a great track imo. Will never be played live though!?

Cock!. Haven't seen em since 2008 so......

jack presley

I can't believe 2 people going to Knebworth voted for Poor Twisted Me.

Acidflash

Prague looks decent at the moment, few songs there i wouldn't mind seeing live.

The Frayed Ends of Sanity
To Live Is To Die
Orion
The Outlaw Torn
Dyers Eve
Creeping Death
Master of Puppets
Fixxxer
Battery
The Unnamed Feeling
I Disappear
For Whom the Bell Tolls
Trapped Under Ice
The Unforgiven II
Human
Until It Sleeps
The Call of Ktulu

Vienna isn't bad either. The rest I could leave, surprised at the amount of votes for whiskey in the jar at the 4 others though.

I can't believe the people going to Knebworth have voted for what they have voted for.

Prague & Vienna only open to metclub members on presale at the mo I think prob a huge factor why those sets are looking like that!!

Seen that yesterday myself, massively disappointed, as I was checking regularly for a Dublin announcement.

Was dying for a good gig to go to next summer after going to feck all this year. Seen them 4 times already but still, the fact you can vote on songs makes it even better. Plus they always bring brilliant supporting bands too.

Annoys me that the UK get a show and we don't. Won't blame the band as I'd imagine their management handle all this stuff.

Don't think I can get the money to make the show in the UK. Kicking myself for not making the Download Black album anniversary gig last year.

KH25

Frayed Ends live has to happen this year. I just wonder if they can still play it with the intensity the recorded version has. And by 'they' I mean Kirk and Lars.

Mattyz69

where can you see the songs that have been voted for?

Very disappointed in the fact that Metallica haven't announced an Irish date, might have to start saving up for Sonisphere next summer

Like it or not, Metallica have pretty much crystallised into what they're going to be until they stop. One thing that they're not going to be is the band who's going to 'take a moment to slow things down' and dig out the acoustic guitar so, no, I don't think Mama Said will ever come back into their rotation. Would they ever do it as a once off? That's something that can never be ruled out. Should they be allowed to retire on their own terms, they might do something extra special like play every album in it's entirety and we'd hear it then. We can only hope.

i would disagree with that...er..sorry Edit...i would say they'd have no issue with playing mama said on rotation as they've always had that atitdude of doing what they want

What they seem to want to do these days is be a crowd pleasing act, Lulu aside, although they weren't touring that so it's moot. Mama Said's not a song that's going to energise a crowd that's thousands strong so it would get left off mainly for that reason, I think.

It is but you still need the hunger out there for certain underplayed songs off of Load to get it on the list.
