Metalica

Sign in to disble this ad
My daughter gave me two tickets to see Metalica next week because she cannot go. She says that the tickets are in the seventh row from the stage. I've never heard Metalica yet know who they are. I'm 59 and my wife is 55. The last time we went to Key Arena, David Gates and Bread were playing and we were in the second row, and IT WAS LOUD!

I'm wondering if I should sell these tickets because I don't like to listen to music that is too loud anymore....or should I go and wear earplugs? My daughter thinks that I should go just to hear the bassplayer.

Ebay them or pay 20 bucks for a supporting membership on here to sell them.

It will be loud, inescapable loud and heavy.

Probably not your cup of tea.

Go to youtube.com and search for Metallica. Then multiply the volume by 'goodgodbejeebuzzz'.

If you're not a fan, or fan of that type of music, or fan of that type of metal bass sound I'd sell the tickets ASAP.

Sell 'em for more than what your daughter paid and give her the $$

It's METALLICA.

7th row.

People will pay.

Man, went to the concert last week here in Houston. I couldn't imagine 7th row tix - I had nose bleeds and it was still kickass. They are definitely a good show even if you don't like the music 100%. Earplugs a must..

Trujillo isn't that fascinating to watch either, to be quite honest, unless you're Jane Goodall.

That's what I was afraid of, that it's going to be loud. It's been years since I last attended a rock concert too. My wife's ears are already damaged so much that she wears a hearing aid. I guess I'll sell these...

Get a pair of ER20s from ebay (your earplugs), and go and enjoy the show!

'tallica put on a fantastic show, and you may as well catch them at least once in your life if you're a musicician.

Volume issues? Pfffft, ER20s for the god damn win!

Hey now, Ms. Goodall went a long way towards bettering our understanding of man-ape relations and the genetic similarities between Homo Sapiens and Gorilla Trujillo. The species is easily recognized by the low-slung, heavy gait and the terrifying grumbling that represents it's mating call.
