Metallica does it right. One of the coolest souvenirs from a concert is not a black shirt, a poster, hat, or picture with the band. It is a live recording from the concert. When we attending the Metallica show at the Rose Bowl during our Rock n Roller 17 tour we ordered a cd of the show and it arrived a couple months later. We did the same at our recent visit to Portland to see the band.

When you pop the cd into the player you are immediately taken right back to the show. All of the emotion, sounds, feelings come rushing back and you get to re-live the show as if it was happening all over again.

What an experience. I am surprised more bands don’t do this. Before you say anything about cd’s are dead or there is nothing like a live show. I agree with you but these cd’s special.

Here is the set list from the show:

1. Hardwired
2. Atlas, Rise!
3. Seek & Destroy
4. Holier Than Thou
5. Welcome Home (Sanitarium)
6. Now That We’re Dead
7. Creeping Death
8. For Whom the Bell Tolls
9. Fade to Black
10. No Remorse
11. Fuel
12. Moth Into Flame
13. Sad But True
14. One
15. Master of Puppets
16. Spit Out the Bone
17. Nothing Else Matters
18. Enter Sandman
