Metal posers rocked out to Armored Saint and W.A.S.P however Metallica at the time was too HEAVY.  During Metallica's set and until the conclusion of their offering only a handful of fans (less than 20) were on hand and rockin out!!  The largest percentage of those left were Punkers.  Posers had called it an early night and bolted the scene... 

Recalling this show blows my mind; I stood inches from stage - right side and witnessed what became one of the most influential heavy metal bands of all time. 

Ride The Lightening remains my favorite album... call it a quality first impression driven fav.

Rock On!
