The historical significance of this show is what makes being a part of this amazing. The Soviet military tried a coup against Gorbachev to prevent the fall of communism and to prevent this show from happening just days before the show. The concert was completely free also marking the first open air free festival in the u.s.s.r. A lot of significant things came after this show also.

The military had just failed at trying to kill Gorbachev and keep communism in power, and the people had enough of tyranny and oppression. You should hear the crowd when they chanted "die" over and over again during the song fade to black at the same concert. The crowd was so large, that they set off seismic sensors across that part of the world! A human made earthquake!

Alright, when you started talking about the "mosh pit" I just had to chime in....in 1984 I attended a Metallica concert at the Hollywood Palladium in West Hollywood, CA. At that time Metallica was still pretty much underground and hadn't gone mainstream. The place was packed, but at the age of 29, I was definitely the oldest person there. Somehow, I ended up in the "mosh pit". I made my way to the very front of the stage and for about 15 seconds I had my hand resting on top of James Hetfield's boot. We made eye contact for a few seconds before he moved off. I never imagined at the time they'd become the legends they have. True story.

[@Str8Homah]

I wrote a paper on this event & the #1 event, as far as crowd size. 1.6 million is a definite number at this event in Moscow. Crowd scan confirmed that but said there were most likely more up to 1.8 million as a ceiling. This is the 3rd biggest crowd for an open air concert in the world ever. #1 is Rod Stewart in Rio, a free concert celebrating new years in 1994. 3.5 million people. Look up the aerial photos of that...it is mind boggling. #2 was also in Russia with 3.5 million people. A French composer named Jean Michel-Jarre. I don't know much about that event as I do this one in your reaction video & the Rod Stewart show in Rio. The full event was on the Monsters of Rock tour. This event was called 'For Those About to Rock: Monsters in Moscow' featuring Metallica, AC/DC, Pantera, The Black Crowes & a hard rock Russian folk band called E.S.T. that was pretty popular globally in the late 80's & 90's. Sadly, 53 people died that day at the event. Mostly, so they said, from drug overdose. This event was 3 months before the sickle & hammer flag was lowered from the Kremlin for the last time. Replaced by the 3 color flag. Marking the final end of the USSR, or Soviet Russia. So awesome that you did a reaction to a vid from this event. Sorry for droning on...Just passing some knowledge.

In September 1991, only a few days after the August Putsch failed, 1.6 million rock music fans converged in Moscow to enjoy the first open-air rock concert, as part of the Monsters of Rock

If you like the great live vibe in front of tons of people, check out the Rush - "Spirit of the Radio" video from their concert in Toronto, (their home town). A lot of people rocking, Rush starts the song with the first part of Rolling Stones - "Paint it Black" then they switch to their "Spirit of the Radio", a song once again speaking of the music industry, especially the Music Radio industry. Lots of energy and a great song.
