I was at that show in the pit! At 16:21 you can see me in the yellow bandanna and yellow and black vest walking to the left in the pit! Next time bring your kid into the PIT as he’ll get a real James sweatband!

I was in the pit and Robert came down the steps!

your son is going to remember this forever. youre a great father and role model.

Thank you my friend-making memories is what life is all about.

@@RelaxingRealityHow was the show? I’m really excited for the show. I’m 12 so I can relate to your son lol. I’ve loved Metallica, KISS, etc since I was 4. I have tickets next year about where you sat for this. View looks okay but I’m kinda scared if it’ll be good or not. Were these good seats?? Also did your son get any special benefits? Btw seek and destroy & harvester of sorrow are my fav songs so I’m excited to see they played them on the Friday night. Every concert I go to I lose my voice. Seems like your son made it through. My voice will be toast just after Pantera 😂

@@rhodeislandrocks10 show was amazing and we had an amazing time.! We were seated at the very top of the stadium but had an awesome view of the stage, lights and the massive projection screens show the band members. Have fun!

How’d ya like it?

[@bryanammeter4450]

@@NDB469 It was great!But what surprised me was Ice Nine Kills they stole the weekend for me 🤙 👍

[@NDB469]

Yea I’ve heard they’re good. Unfortunately I’ve never actually seen Ice Nine Kills, the storms on August 4th in foxborough kept them off stage! FFDP played a few songs and then Metallica played! Everyone tells me INK is outstanding though! Glad you had a good time!

[@TheEdorizo]

Every concert I have gone to I stand up most of the time.

[@guyhopewell3748]

Love that u got to share this with your son. I got to do this with my son for Sevendust. I’ll be seeing Metallica for 2 nights in November at ford field Be my 6&7th time and I can’t wait 🤘🏾🤘🏾

[@mrscoolwhipp]

I'm seeing them Friday & Sunday. I've waited for my entire life for this moment. Thank you for detailing your wonderful event with you & your #metallicafamily. Cherish these moments forever.

I'm taking my nephew to see Metallica at Foxborough. This year, his first concert, this was his 30th birthday gift from me.

[@RelaxingReality]

We will be there, it’s going to be incredible!🙂

Im 23 and my dad and I have been going to concerts together since i was 6. Cherish the moments. My first show was the stones at the old giants stadium in 2006 on the bigger bang tour. We also went to Metallica at Metlife as well. Sunday show was packed. Awesome experience for us.

Making memories with loved ones is what it’s all about!

[@RelaxingReality]

Thank you my friend-that’s amazing you have seen them from the very beginning! I’m so grateful I got to go and experience the concert with my son.

[@lindenskywalker6881]

Just watched your Edmonton videos. I just thought I’d check out your M72 2023 experience 🤘

[@rhodeislandrocks10]

Awesome video!! Love the quality and even though the seats are up high, you can see everything well. What camera did you use to record this Vlog? I’ve always been trying to find a good and cheap camera but it’s tough..

[@RelaxingReality]

Thanks my friend--we had a great time! I was using an iPhone 13 Pro Max.

[@BigDaddyChumChum]

[@FarzinR666]

Good stuff ! really cool that you got see them with your son, he is gonna remember this forever. My best friend and I got tickets for Edmonton next year and are super excited. Watching them live has been my biggest dream ever since I live and breathe Metallica. Our seats are pretty similar to yours, way at the top, watching your vlog gave me an idea of what to expect. Can't wait !! and yes , PARENTING DONE RIGHT !

[@RelaxingReality]

Thank you my friend!

[@sonicmojo]

You guys are so cool! It's nice to see one of my favorite bands of all-time still here, still making us fans happy. A lot of people talk crap about Metallica, you know the usual, oh they sold out...The Load/ Reload debacle. The hatred over Napster/ downloading, which time told that they were right about it, but let's never mind that! I'm a musician and I've been listening since 83 pretty much being that I was born in 1969, which is crazy, I've been alive since the birth of Heavy Metal! LOL. And of course the classic full-on hatred of both St. Anger and Lulu. Personally I like both records specially St. Anger, once you get past the drum and production sound it's actually not a bad record at all. There's actually a lot of great songs on there like the unnamed feeling, purify, all within my hands, frantic, St. anger & some kind of monster! All these are amazing songs. And it makes for one hell of a background soundtrack to their documentary while they were making it! I mean, the documentary and the music goes together like rum and coke, that's really wild! And as far as Lulu is concerned, I've always been a Lou Reed fan and Velvet Underground for that matter so Lulu was welcomed as far as I'm concerned! So, bring the table, bring more tables!!! I am the table 😂😂😂 Keep on rocking guys and thanks for your amazing documentary!!! 🤘☠🤘

[@RelaxingReality]

We had an amazing time and it was incredible to share the experience with my son!

[@sonicmojo]

​@@RelaxingRealityThat is truly amazing man. I never got to have kids, so I just get to live vicariously through my friends & band members. LOL Im just happy that theres a new generation of fans out there keeping Heavy Metal and Metallica alive. We are sooooo lucky to still have them. Every new album is a blessing and I always look forward to it and I always buy it, in physical form because i want them to be around as long as they can possibly be around! 😊

[@marie-claudeblanchet7384]

Thank-you for sharing your experience. Now it feels like I went too.

[@proatmope8764]

Great video cool that you guys saw all 3 bands I only ended up seeing Pantera and Metallica. I was also there with my dad, we also did the same parking strategy and it was worth it took us not even 2 minutes to get out of the parking lot. This was actually my second concert at MetLife Stadium but this time was my first time tailgating at a concert. Unfortunately it took us a long time to get to the stadium from Long Island, we wanted to try to get there by 3 pm but we ended up arriving at like 4 pm due to a lot of traffic mostly in the Bronx.
