Intro Creeping Death For Whom the Bell Tolls Welcome Home(Sanitarium) Harvester of Sorrow Whiplash Fade to Black Seek and Destroy Master of Puppets > Run to the Hills > Helpless jams Last Caress Am I Evil? Battery QUALITY: Ok, so the quality of this recording sucks. Die-hards only for sure on this one. Most of the shows from the '88 Monsters of Rock tour are pretty bad in quality, but this one has to be one of the worst. The LA Coliseum is huge, and the taper was definitely not close to the stage. In addition, it sounds like the recorder was underneath something, as it's muffled a bit. You can still tell what songs are being played, but it's a rough recording to listen to. Seriously, this a rough recording. Metallica is still considered the unknown on this tour. During Fade to Black some guy's girlfriend goes around looking for gum. Moments like this always add a certain charm to bootlegs... SOURCE: Unknown audience analog TIME: 73 minutes VIDEO QUALITY: The second show shot by Kirk's brother-in-law. this quality is not as good as the 7/16 show. The footage looks wavey. Either this really isn't 2nd gen, or there were some really crappy VCRs used to do the copy. SOURCE: Unknown camera VERSION: Biglow TRANSER: 2nd gen > DVD CORRECT SHOW: Yes, James sings "scanning the scene down in L.A. tonight" FLAWS: none BAND PERFORMANCE: Crazy show for sure. The video really helps fill in some gaps, as you can hear the crowd react to stuff on the audio, but can't really tell what's going on. During the opening the crowd rushes on to the floor, you see a little bit of that on the video. Apparently during whiplash, the sound was turned off to get control of the crowd. Which then causes the crowd to send all of the chairs and barricade fencing to the front. They get the show going again, and Metallica continues to crush. It's no wonder Dokken was boo'd during their set which followed Metallica. Also on the bill: Van Halen, Scorpions, Dokken and Kingdom Come
