In Colorado Metallica History... 08/25/1989 & 08/26/1989...
Metallica played two Sold Out shows at Red Rocks Amphitheater. The Legendary Shows, and the only time Metallica ever played at Red Rocks.
One of the most magical concert experiences of my life. Absolutely incredible. There was an amazing lightning show over Denver as the backdrop.
Who else was there?
