Lars filmed this on a camcorder. Unpolished chaos from peak 'Justice' era Metallica.
Filmed on Lars’ personal camcorder at Irvine Meadows Amphitheatre in Irvine, CA on September 23, 1989. Don't expect some fancy pro-shot video this time around!
Practical Effects
Shaky camcorder footage feels more real than any slick production.
Sound
Newsted's bass cuts through with unexpected clarity for a bootleg.
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Irvine Meadows was demolished in 2016; this footage is now a ghost of the venue.
This captures Metallica at their most inaccessible—right before the Black Album made them household names.
