METALLICA In Talks To Play Israel In September
- June 14, 2008
|
|
Ynetnews reports that METALLICA is in talks to play Nokia Stadium in Yad Eliyahu, Tel Aviv, Israel in Sepember. This will not be METALLICA's first time performing in Israel. In 1993, the band members had their first-ever concert at the Yarkon Park in Tel Aviv. Six years later, METALLICA returned to Israel and performed at the Amphi-Park in Rishon Lezion. METALLICA, one of the most popular heavy metal bands to date is supposed to arrive in Israel as part of its European tour making its way to Russia, Lithuania, Bulgaria, Germany, Turkey, Romania, Belgium, France and England. Nir Portzelina, Director-General of Sports operating the Nokia Stadium said in response, "We are indeed conducting negotiations surrounding METALLICA's arrival in Israel and we hope that they come to fruition. The outcome looks positive."

Yes, if you want power riffs then listen to Metallica. If you want complex compositions, then you listen to Megdeth.

Hey there dumb fuck, if Metallica died when Cliff died, Metallica would not have been 1981-1989. Cliff got smashed to death in 86, get your facts straight you little high school fuck! GOD is it cool to post shit about bands I don't like, obviously you listen to a lot of Metallica to list all of your opinions..... I bet my ass you have seen them at least 3 times also.

As much as I love and respect Metallica, they shouldn't play in Tel Aviv as long as Israel occupies Arab land and oppresses Arab people...

I guess the same argument might be made that bands shouldn't play certain Arab lands until they renounce terrorism.

You're absolutely right podoshj, but those countries that support terrorism wouldn't even grant them visas... I know what i'm talking about; I lived in one...

I'm absolutely dead after this. Metallica... Lithuania...in one sentence... I almost cried as I read it.
I knew that this day will come.
All 3 millions of our population would gather to see Metallica. God, even the emmigration might stop due to that.
Please, let it be true!!!

Well, yeah, I guess metal is not allowed in those countries. That's pretty sad. But at the same time, I can't fathom that all Israelis want to oppress the Palestinian people. It seems some of those right wingers over there have too much influence in the government. My guess is that the Israelis who listen to metal are not the right wingers who keep developing in the West Bank. I have a feeling the right wingers don't listen to metal at all.
Hmmm... what if metal bands played combined shows for both Palestinians and Israelis... that would be cool.

Slaves Hebrews born to serve, to the pharaoh Heed To his every word, live in fear Faith Of the unknown one, the deliverer Wait Something must be done, four hundred years
So let it be written So let it be done I'm sent here by the chosen one So let it be written So let it be done To kill the first born pharaoh's son I'm creeping death
Now Let my people go, land of Goshen Go I will be with thee, bush of fire Blood Running red and strong down the Nile Plague Darkness three days long, hail to fire
So let it be written So let it be done I'm sent here by the chosen one So let it be written So let it be done To kill the first born pharaoh's son I'm creeping death
Die by my hand I creep across the land Killing first-born man Die by my hand I creep across the land Killing first-born man
I Rule the midnight air, the destroyer Born I shall soon be there, deadly mass I Creep the steps and floor, final darkness Blood Lambs blood painted door, I shall pass
So let it be written So let it be done I'm sent here by the chosen one So let it be written So let it be done To kill the first born pharaoh's son I'm creeping death

Ladies and gentleman...it's called...
"Death Magnetic"
Hmmmph...too bad that I have to run off to work, as I'm sure the shit storm will be quite something to see once this gets headlined on Blabbermouth...Don't care for it myself, but maybe it'll grow on me. I can't wait to see the anagrams that all the haters create for this...So let it be written, so let it be done indeed...
