22 Years Ago: Remembering My First Metallica Show

I remember it like it was yesterday, it was me and a bunch of my headbanger friends are taking final exams in our junior year of high school in Dover Plains, NY just waiting to get through so we can get on the road to see Metallica!

It was June 17th, 1994 and we had a convoy of several cars heading out on I84. You knew it was summertime when they were rockin in Middletown, and it was a hot summer day. The Concert: Metallica with guests Danzig and Suicidal Tendencies will forever be in my memory as one of the greatest concerts I have ever attended. I would go on to attend many more Metallica shows over the years, but none of them will ever compare to the show I attended on this day back in 1994.
