Video: Metallica Play Surprise Intimate Club Show
On Thursday, September 16, Metallica played a surprise show at The Independent — a club with a 500-person-capacity — in San Francisco, CA.
The band announced the show on social media earlier in the day:
“Hey! Gonna let you in on a little secret .. We’re playing tonight at The Independent in downtown SF. Grab a $20 bill and get your ass to the box office right now! Proof of vaxx is required to get a wristband and it’s gonna sell out fast. One ticket per person, cash only!”
In addition to the vaccination requirement, attendees were obligated to wear masks to the show.
Unsurprisingly, tickets sold out immediately.
You can watch fan-filmed video from the show below. The setlist was as follows:
1. “Whiplash”
2. “Ride the Lightning”
3. “The Memory Remains”
4. “Now That We’re Dead”
