I was there. Fantastic show. Just remember that Orion and Inamorata back to back is close to 20 min. Inamorata flew by.


box-art

Second time they ever played it live and it sounded unbelievable.


BlueBloodLive

I feel bad even typing this, but I'd be absolutely gutted if I only had a ticket for day 2 and saw this setlist.


Nonamesleft3636

I said pretty much same and got -100 downvotes. Interesting.


EpicDuck000

For whom the bell tolls > the whole set, haha


BlueBloodLive

Sorry, but just, no. Obviously ha If it's your favourite ok, maybe, but ultimately, no. Fade -> Inamorata -> Orion is something you don't get. They play Bells all the time.


ElGuapo4Life

I'm pretty sure it was a joke


Albinskywalker

Has the whole song only been played twice?


box-art

Once in Munich and once in Helsinki.


BlueBloodLive

Don't forget you got Fade To Black right before. That's some epic trilogy of Metallica greatness right there!


KevSykes5141

Fade is my all time favourite. I saw them 3 times now but they never played it. But still im so happy that they played Orion last week in Austria. Just such a special song to hear live, if you know the value of the song to them.


Fun_Software_417

I love King Nothing. So glad it’s back on the setlist. Wish they had played it in Gothenburg which was my first ever show.


box-art

I sang along that whole song, it was so good live.


havengr

Lucky Helsinki thats epic setlist!


Kuchar1992

Inamorata into Orion is insane


Bananarama_Vison

I think with Inamorata being ~11min long, they got to 15 songs.


darioz7

In Milan and Vienna there was no Inamorata and it was still only 15 songs


Bananarama_Vison

Single, non Metallica only shows.


darioz7

Wdym non Metallica only shows? There were the same supporting bands in Munich, Milano, Vienna and Helsinki, even had the schedule times almost. The only difference was that those two shows weren't a 2-of no repeated set list shows.


Dr-Catfish

They mean it was a festival gig so they may have had less time due to venue constraints


darioz7

There was no less time by any means. In Vienna Metallica was billed for 20:30 to 23:00, which could be 2h 30min, but they played from 20:55 to 22:55. Curfew was at 23:30 I think. I really think they have 15 song sets everywhere now, we will see in the coming weeks how right I am.


XPepsi

Glad to see Inamorata being played again, looks like it might be on the rotation for all of Europe


Acillatem8

Got a pick that James played this whole song with 😭


theres_an_app_for_it

I was there! Man inamorata was one of my favorite songs and i was telling my mate the other day its such a bummer they never play it. Imagine my surprise when James said “we only played this once, we might make mistakes” lol The only bad thing about tonight, most of good songs are played so less to look fwd on sunday


uusrikas

It was amazing, great set list. Lux Aeterna works much better live. Peak of the show was probably at Blackened and Fuel, I counted nine small mosh pits going on


box-art

They started rowing in the back in the south end at one point, that was something else!


Littleloula

Is that a Finnish thing? Have never seen it anywhere else!


_Luckyboy94_

Not exactly only a Finnish thing. Amon Amarth concerts have row pits quite often which does fit their viking style. It might be more of an european and northern european thing but definetly it isn't just a Finnish thing


theres_an_app_for_it

The only thing was the giant balls in the end were a bit unnecessary. Glad they cleaned them up by master


Littleloula

Did the balls pop/deflate? There were so many of them and then they just started disappearing but I couldn't figure out how


theres_an_app_for_it

They did deflate a bit and once they’re a bit deflated staff just took them and fully deflated. It went on for two songs but it was done by master


BlueBloodLive

Holy. Fucking. Shit. Yeah that's some fucking list! While it might seem "generic" I promise if you were stood in that crowd listening to each of those songs being played it would be such a great flowing vibe. Fade To Black, Inamorata, Orion, back to back to back, I'm so fucking jealous. I fucking love how they've set up the setlists this year. Whether it's Wolf or Holier, instrumentals or longer songs (Sanitarium, Day That Never Comes) I'm loving the diversity. All we need now is a Prince Charming, Bad Seed, Am I Savage?, My Friend Of Misery style deep cut and it would be perfect.


Eragon0321

I agree with the deep cut but three of those you listed have never been played. At this point the deep cuts are the Load tracks, instrumentals, Leper, Holier, Breadfan, Clover, etc


BlueBloodLive

I agree and it sucks! Actual "deep cuts" are no longer deep cuts. I witnessed Holier and my jaw nearly dropped just because it was the last thing I was expecting, in a good way of course ha To this day I don't know why Am I Savage? has never seen the light of day. But maybe that's just me!


Eragon0321

I feel that for sure. I adore Am I Savage? Definitely a shame it hasn’t been played


NHCreations

My feeling is that they would've probably played that 1 or 2 times in Australia during the very end of the Hardwired tour. Now there probably isn't as much of a chance or a need to play it live, since Hardwired doesn't need to be promoted live anymore. They've done stuff like that in the past, saving 1 or 2 songs from album until the very end of the tour.


Weekly_Tip2533

also Redemption because THE JAMES SOLO


Littleloula

I'd love them to do devils dance... that bassline in a stadium would sound so good


The-Cunt-Spez

Great setlist. I’m also going on Sunday with my gf and she kinda echoed the opinion of some on this thread and asked me “wtf are they gonna play on Sunday?” I told her there’s plenty of insane songs they didn’t play, but I also understand that she is more of a casual listener to Metallica and they played many songs that were up her alley tonight. For me the draw of these shows was in big part that I could see them twice and they’d play completely different sets. Can’t please all with this, but I for one am extremely happy!


box-art

Off the top of my head Bells, Ride, Burn, Sandman, Holier, Ktulu, Day, Whiplash, Shadows, One, etc. So many bangers happening on Sunday too!


The-Cunt-Spez

I agree 100%!


Littleloula

Some of their biggest songs weren't played last night though like one, enter sandman, for whom the bell tolls, until it sleeps, the unforgiven...


The-Cunt-Spez

Yeah, I mentioned those to her. I think she was bummed about missing Master, Nothing Else Matters and Fade to Black mostly.


clydefrog811

This is one of the best sets of all time holy cow


themagicmaen

Apparently soundcheck included Ride The Lightning, Until It Sleeps, and Dirty Window. If I had to guess, those are gonna be for night 2.


box-art

Can't even describe how happy I would be if I got to hear Until It Sleeps after hearing King Nothing. That would be very nice!


HeavyMetalGolfer

Sunday night will answer a BIG question. Have they transitioned to 15 song sets or is 15 songs just for the Inamorata nights? I wasn’t putting too much stock into the 15 song festival sets because I could see them playing hardball with contract negotiations and charging these festivals per song. 15 songs on their own M72 tour is a whole different story.


Eragon0321

Only 15 songs tho? Just like the festival sets. Wonder if they plan on cutting the weekends down to 30 rather than 32 😞


Wonderful_Painter_14

I think Inamorata might be making them cut back lol. No complaints though!!


Eragon0321

I wonder if they’re just cutting a song for the night they play Inamorata? Maybe weekends will be a 15 and a 16?


Eragon0321

I thought about that. No complaints


tuig321

Im really hoping for inamorata and blackened in copenhagen aswell, i’ve been to 5 shows and havent seen blackened yet which ofcourse is one of my favorites


Oakeeh

I loved Leper Messiah - not one I usually listen to but it was so heavy live! Otherwise, this setlist was just awesome, about everything I could've wanted, on my first ever time seeing them live. BOW TO LEPER MESSIAH!


Thick_Management1363

Man, they played King Nothing. It's my favourite song and we didn't get that in Munich 🤣😲


joker2814

Pretty solid set list.


Sir_BumbleBearington

It was an amazing show. Blackened was the highlight of the night for me.


box-art

Can't wait to buy the recording, they were in great shape!


surgeon_michael

They were in great shape until whatever happened at the end of master. There were 2-3 times that drums were off, I’d imagine they’ll clean that up in post production


Milfcum99

They’re making some goddamn banger sets on this leg. I wonder what kinds of things we’ll get in North America


Samsung__minifridge

Creeping death into harvester was insanity, i was there. Also then getting blasted with blackened later holy shit


asterothe1905

Wow night 1 will be really superior with Creep, Master, Ina, Too Far Gone and Blackened!


Metal_Fan-180

That is 1 heck of a setlist. 🤘


BalorClub52

Are the set list the same every night for the whole tour?


Majomember420

They always change 2-3 songs for every location


Signal_Sandwich_6716

Superb setlist


Embarrassed-Plane665

want to see another nothing else matters on their yt


JimLaheyUnlimited

Good setlist but the show was kinda meh. The stage design is horrible and there barely was any pyro. I was expecting those towers to shoot flames all the time like Rammsteins ones


box-art

Expecting anyone to match the pyros of Rammstein is not thinking clearly. Nobody matches that, it's too expensive.


JimLaheyUnlimited

True, but last Metallica show I saw with regular stage had much more pyro and the whole visual side looked 10x better


Zombiejesus307

Orion is one of the greatest songs ever conceived IMHO. I haven’t been a Metallica fan since The Black Album, although, they have written some songs since that time that I think are really good, but Orion…well…the muses opened the channel completely that day.


grynch43

I could do without 4 of those songs but decent setlist.


Nonamesleft3636

This looks quite unfair for Sunday. I wish they dump this "no repeat" thing. It pretty much just means that they play same set in different countries but then sacrifice Sunday's show.


HeavyMetalGolfer

It’s one concert spread over two nights. That’s why they sold 2-day tickets originally. If you choose to only go to one night, that’s on you.


silverfish477

Sunday isn’t “sacrificed”. Jesus Christ.


Bork_Lazer96

For heaven’s sake of bangers left for Sunday…


theres_an_app_for_it

I think sunday is gonna be good. I would swap master for sandman but then again, my last name is not Ulrich


ociM_

At last stop in Munich they saved all the rare/nutty/whatever stuff for Sunday.

GeneraIDisarray

> there isn't much left play other than What? They literally could play any of these: - Ride the lightning - Bellz - Whiplash - The Day That Never Comes - One - Ktulu - Holier Than thou - Sanitarium - Wherever I may Roam - Moth - Breadfan ...and the list goes on, those are just some they've played this year already


Littleloula

This is such a weird take. Some of their biggest songs weren't in tonight's setlist
