Concert of the Year Countdown: #5 Metallica
Show: Metallica at Jobing.com Arena on October 21
Unlike Niki, I'm not much of a metalhead, but this should was truly brilliant. In fact, I found myself listening to Death Magnetic for weeks afterwards, and was fond of saying things like "I feel like I just discovered this new band... Metallica! They're awesome, if you haven't heard them, check them out!" It was an amazing three hours of thrashing, headbanging, firework-and-laser accented awesomeness, the only low-point coming, ironically, when they played their biggest hit. Hell, I even left with a new appreciation for that douchenozzle Lars. --Martin Cizmar
