Their useless album after Load, which wasnt great either.

Agree they should play stuff from ride the lightning and master of puppets, but somehow I have a feeling it will mostly be stuff from their useless new album Death Magnetic.

I am seriously pondering to give this a miss !

Seriously, Metallica haven't released a good album since the "...and justice for all" album in 88, that's 23 years ago.

If you haven't seen them before DDS, you don't have much to lose.
I'll be checking out the reviews from prior concerts to see what they play.
I'll like to say that they will change the playlist since they haven't been to UAE before, but this is unlikely.

Well seeing that they haven't actually come up with anything really worth listening too in over 15 years and considering the pricey tickets and all that faff about buses, parking etc etc and I don't believe I'm going to say this because 15 years back I would've killed too.

I'm going to give this a miss.

Turn away now Chocs,
but it has to be done to avoid disapointment.
the setlist will probably go something like this:

1. Creeping Death
2. For Whom the Bell Tolls
3. Fuel
4. Ride the Lightning
5. Fade to Black
6. Cyanide
7. All Nightmare Long
8. Sad But True
9. Welcome Home (Sanitarium)
10. Orion
11. One
12. Master of Puppets
13. Blackened
14. Nothing Else Matters
15. Enter Sandman
Encore
16. Am I Evil?/Hit The Lights/Battery/Last Caress
17. Seek & Destroy

Theres at least a dozen good songs there, so it might be worth going after all.

Hmmm...where did you get this list from ? If this really is the case, then it might be worth it after all. But just to show how soft they've gone here is a preview ! LOL

Got it from a metalica website. Same list for the past 3 shows, except for the first encore which varies.

Have to say that Metallica totally rocked it last night! Because it was their first time here, I think they felt obliged to play all the old stuff, and so they did, only playing one track off the new album.

They looked thoroughly delighted to be here, played for over two hours and put in an amazing show. If you had doubts and missed it, then you definitely missed out.
