I’m happy for anyone excited about seeing Metallica! 🥰
Personally, I’m hoping for something that will be popular with more people…
….like immersive content from a Star Trek convention 🤭🖖

Probably one of a few bands that have tried to push media boundaries in a different way. They've had recording sections in arenas for eventual live performance tape swapping. I think it was possible for many, many years to download an MP3 of any tour stop they did since the late 90s (The napster offence was always about studio recorded music being given away. -Not wanting to side with the poor millionaires, but I get that argument... Control how it is distributed, and give the more obscure artists chances to show the record labels they sell(?). iTunes I'd imagine helped fight some of that). Their Poor Touring Me DVD from 25 years ago I think was one of the earliest to let the watcher choose which band member to follow on camera during the concert. They did a concert/movie probably fifteen years ago now in Vancouver that oddly had long breaks between songs while camera crew got ready for the next shot.
Now a couple songs in VR? Interesting. Though picking arguably the most expensive consumer device option for your musings is a misstep.

You might not realize that their first album was on 1983, and oneof their most famous albums was in 1992. You did not watched TRL at MTV?
The crossovers of geezers that still like Metallica and Vision Pro owners must be like half a dozen people in the entire world.
I am not a big fan of the weekend but really enjoyed their immersive music video. So maybe I will try the Metallica experience.
Gotta go further back than that, I'm afraid. Haven't been good since the Black album.
If Metallica is "intense" for you, then you'd poop yourself listening to the metal I listen to.
Based on their pre-Load catalog. Nobody goes so they can hopefully hear them play 'Lux Aeterna'. I'm 50, Metallica was one of my entry points into thrash, but among most metal heads, they've been past their prime the entirety of the century and just phoning albums in.
Sure. Ghost and Sleep Token have rapidly become two of the biggest bands in hard rock/prog rock/metal and have picked up quite a non-traditional metal audience.
Yes, the archival application of the AVP and other VR headsets is going to be huge going forward imo.
What?! Steel Panther didn’t arrive til like 2010! The world hasn’t needed anything else sense.
Maybe I will bootleg it. Metallica doesn’t get my money ever since they helped shut down Napster.
Metallica was right though....artists have the right to choose how their music is distributed, as that is largely what happens now.
metallica is an extremely mainstream band. their audiences are all ages 🤷♂️
only if you listen to FM radio and don't remotely explore the absurdly vast amount of new rock coming out. there's more new rock today than ever in history... I get dozens of new albums every year but I love music and look for it.go look at the recent releases under hard rock on apple music every week. plenty of awesome stuff.
I love Metallica, and any band that knows how to play their instruments! I probably should have said "Throw the VisionPro out the window!"
