Metallica

Metallica ! I think there is no person on the earth who have not heard about Beatles … the same will be true about Metallica. They were so famous ten years ago, nowadays they have faded. I like their ballad songs, but not really the fun of the hard ones. This summer they were performing in London’s biggest and newest stadium, Wembley, I think it can host almost as many as 80,000 people ….

When I was told that an extra ticket is available for their concert I took it without hesitation. The ticket was for a seating place, 40pounds, which is quite expensive.



We came to the concert with a friend of mine. Arriving there we have spotted that the standing area is better but unfortunately it was impossible to get into it. The people who had the special tickets for this privileged area were getting special silver hand bands…. which were checked….
With a bit of thinking we faked the bands by cutting a piece of newspaper and rolling it on the hand. We have covered it with the coats and as soon as we were asked to introduce it we just flashed it a bit, without really showing it … it was really stressful to pass all the security but it was worth it. We found ourselves almost in front of the stage ! It was still far away, we couldnot really see anything ….





I would say that the concert was brilliant, it was a bit mad with a lot of strange people but it was worth the effort. It is not my type of music, but they were great … a bit old ….. but definitely great !

It was really a surprise for me to find the stadium transportation so easy and well organized. As soon as the concert was finished we simply walked all the way to the tube and got inside the train without stopping …. which was amazing.
