VIDEO: Metallica share Abu Dhabi footage

Metallica have offered up some more video goodies for fans.

This time out, it’s the usual Met On Tour highlight package, with meet n greet stuff, tuning room jamming (“Cyanide”), and a live performance.

The footage is from the band’s October 25th gig at Yas Island in Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates.

The featured live song is “Ride The Lightning.”

The band were looking forward to playing in the country for the first time, as bassist Robert Trujillo told Gulf News.

“This is a whole new adventure for us. Within a tour cycle, we usually play for a couple of years, and usually play a lot of the same venues in Europe and the US. This [show] is great, because we have never been to the Emirates, and we've never been to India [where Metallica are heading to after Abu Dhabi]. We know that there are a lot of fans there who have never seen Metallica live before.”
