Metallica's 'The Day That Never Comes'cover from 'Death Magnetic'

I am proud to say that Metallica was the reason for me to like music and start playing guitar. Here I am posting a cover of 'The Day That Never Comes'. I know it sounds bad and I was needing more practice, but you know all of us guitar amateurs and metallica fans would like to play even a hundredth of what Kirk Hammet plays, it just makes me happy to be able to play the song and post it.

Metallica St Louis 11/17/08 @ Scot Trade Center: Review and my comparison with past concerts

A little of background first, this was my 4th Metallica's concert, and it was absolutely amazing, I am already looking forward for another opportunity to see the four horsemen again. It was of course very different compared to my first concert, that one was on my early 20's in Buenos Aires, with no doubt, the crowd was much more energetic and at that place usually they are hungrier for heavy metal concerts as they don't have a lot of concerts year round. But being a grown-up now, it let me appreciate this concert, in other ways. All of my other 3 Metallica concerts were here in St Louis. The first one was really special since I was on the floor and really close to the stage. In this very last one I was able to squeeze on a section about 50 feet away from the stage, and in front of one of the wide sides of the rectangular stage, but could not get to the floor which would had been incredible.
The last 2 concert tours I would say were pretty similar. Both in the St Anger's 2004 and now, they used similar stage layout where they are moving around all the time so at some point you will have them in front of you, also both were in the Scott Trade Center.
Disagreeing with several reviews from people that loathed the 04 tour, I would say that in terms of the set list, if you switch the 'St Anger' songs for the 'Death Magnetic' songs, the concert was the same. And that is the thing about Metallica concerts, discarding the songs from their last release, they will play the same incredible songs that made them who they are and that the fans want to enjoy when going to their concerts.
Other than the music, the lasers were pretty cool, the pyros on One warmed my face even being 50 feet away from the stage. Giant coffins were hanging similar to the ones on the Death Magnetic CD cover. And what about James asking to turn the lights on before the last song which was 'Seek and Destroy', so he could see us singing, while several black inflatable balls were falling.
I have to say the devotion they showed for their fans is not the norm coming from super stars at their level. I mean, who stays for minutes after the show is finished, greeting and shaking hands with their fans, and throwing them absolutely all of the picks not used by them, which by the way on both last concerts I was lucky to pick one of them.
I think throughout the show, they were really enjoying as much as the crowd, you could see that on their faces, they playing, and us banging our heads, singing along and making the "horns" in the air most of the time, not to mention the air guitar.
To sum up, 14000 people enjoyed on a Monday night two plus hours of the best thrash metal and live band in the world, not bad at all for 4 guys in their middle 40's.

I think that even they had a pretty bad run of releases, from 'Load' to 'St. Anger', considered the experimental or concept era of them, they have proven with this last release 'Death Magnetic', they still got it. I also like more the old stuff, but you can not pretend them to have out of their 9 studio records, all of them heavy metal jewels. They deserve all the respect, and the ones complaining about them at that time, must be eating their words now.
