Lars Ulrich Reflected His Thoughts For The 40th Anniversary Shows of Metallica
As the regarded band Metallica celebrated its 40th year anniversary just recently with a historic pair of 40th-anniversary shows, its drummer Lars Ulrich has reflected his thoughts and feelings, thanking the fans, through social media.
While the celebrations of Metallica’s 40th year anniversary have slowly come to an end, its bassist Robert Trujillo talked about the shows which were held at San Francisco’s Chase Center on December 17 and December 19. During the shows, Metallica played at least one song off each of their studio albums to honor its 40th anniversary, including the ones that have never been played on stages as well, while tons of fans from all around the world also flocked to the concerts in San Francisco all weekend.
And after their historical two-night celebration event, the talented drummer of Metallica Lars Ulrich has posted a few photos from the incredible two-night weekend on his Instagram account, reflecting his gratefulness to fans that have supported their way through this very day for 40 years. Right down of his photo, Metallica drummer also attached these words, down below:
“Overfuckinwhelmed!!
It’s taking me two days just to start coming down from this otherworldly experience…
Over the course of the last week, you’ve heard me do a few speeches and say a lot of things, so since I don’t wanna repeat myself (too much!), I’ll keep this one on the short side.
THANK YOU!
Metallica is not me or you. METALLICA is all of us. It’s a state of mind that we all share, it’s a destination we all seek out, it’s an element that keeps us alive, it’s our common purpose.
You keep this real. You keep us inspired and alive. It is because of you this thing exists.
40 years?! Who would’ve fucking thought that this, whatever this is, could live and breathe this long, could still connect people, could still be somewhat relevant and still exist forty years later??!!
Thank you to each and everyone of you for making it happen.
Thank you to each and everyone of you for believing in the possibility of music.
Thank you to each and everyone of you for being Metallica.”
During the celebrations, Metallica got on the stage at Chase Center after a long time, their last performance on the September 2019 S&M² concerts. As there were tons of fans from all around the world flocking to the concerts in San Francisco all weekend, the special two-night shows of Metallica reportedly grossed more than $4.1 million, unsurprisingly. In addition, the regarded metal band also curated other events all around the city, after the long four-day weekend of celebrations started on Thursday, December 16, which included a film festival, photo exhibit, and curated lineup of smaller venue shows featuring other acts.
