Whether you are a big fan or not, going to see Metallica in concert is an event. While the days of playing in small, hot clubs are decades behind them, Metallica is still able to pull off an intimate feeling, even if you are seeing them with a crowd of 60,000 in a massive stadium. So what can you expect at a Metallica show? You can expect a two hour-plus show filled with a massive stage, thousands of banging heads, fire, and a whole lot of your favorite songs, whether you like new Metallica or old Metallica (or a little bit of both).

When it comes to Metallica 2011, the band continues its history of hitting the stage to Ennio Morricone songs (a famous Italian composer who is known for scoring Spaghetti Western films) before launching into “Hit the Lights” from their album “Kill ‘Em All.” With 25 years of music under their belt, Metallica has enough songs for a week’s worth of concerts, though their set’s tend to focus mostly on their most beloved songs such as “Master of Puppets”, “Seek and Destroy”, “Ride the Lightning,” “Enter Sandman” and “Fade to Black,” before ending their set with the classic “Creeping Death.”
