  • Little known fact about that concert: Pantera's breakdown for "Domination" was so heavy that the Soviet Union collapsed under its weight.
  • @TheBC313
    That Harvester Of Sorrow performance is legendary. Especially the part where Hetfield stops, hocks up a loogie, spits it out, and goes "ALLLLLLLL HAVE SAID THEIR PRAYERS!!!!"
  • @rendyandrian7149
    Lars is Metallica encyclopedia. If he writes biography book someday, I won't be surprised if it is a thousand pages long.
  • @moderusprime
    What's insane is that Moscow took place roughly 10 years after Lars met James.
  • That live recording of the 1991 Moscow show it is probably the best Metallica live show of their whole career.
  • @metalhead-mf2zf
    4:33 What Lars says here really is the true essence and beauty of a heavy metal concert. The fact that anyone from anywhere in the entire world can get together for a common cause and leave everything else outside the arena really does speak to the true testament of the power and captivation of heavy metal.
  • @calacestar
    As a Russian-German, this made me tear up. Especially the part where he talked about the concerts in Saudi Arabia. We need to unite more flags all over this world through music!
  • @anFy81
    that concert is the most impressive live concert video I have ever seen epic
  • @vvitchtripper
    Pantera's Domination in Moscow is the definitive moment of metal live history
  • Metallica played a gig in Lubbock TX in the early 90s. The band kept trying to end the show, Lars would not stop playing. The band caught on, and played and played and played. It was well over four hours. Never seen a show like it.
  • 2:32 Sikorski makes helicopters for NATO not Russia. The helicopter Lars is referring to is a Soviet Hind Gunship helicopter and they're no joke.
  • I was at that concert and it was absolutely epic. Saw Metallica again 26 years later in Seattle. I am still going through video and trying to find myself as I was right by stage.
  • @QuantumBraced
    I just checked out the concert, absolutely epic. I'd forgotten how amazing James Hetfield's voice is, he just has the perfect metal voice. You gotta put it in the context of the time, when the first McDonald's opened in Moscow, 38,000 people went through it the first day, waiting for hours in line.
  • Even at at the age of 47 I want to jump through the screen right into the crowd, what a badass show
  • The creeping death performance of that concert is the most badass thing I’ve seen
  • I think that's the longest I've ever heard Lars go without saying the F word.
  • @kryptonian5539
    I remember being 15 years old and renting that concert on VHS almost every week for months just to watch it over and over again. Truly legendary show.
  • @kman2975
    Amazing stuff. The world needs Metallica. Lars is a champ.
  • @erikl1447
    Say what you want about Lars and his drumming....he's the drummer of the most successful and most popular metal band of all time....and he can tell a great story too.
