VIDEO: Metallica perform 1988 classic in Winnipeg



Metallica performed their 1988 classic, “Blackened”, at the Bell MTS Place in Winnipeg, Manitoba on September 13, and the band are streaming professional footage from the event.

According to CBC News, the band set an attendance record by playing before more than 17,000 fans at the Canadian venue.

Metallica also donated $10,000 to the city's food bank, Winnipeg Harvest, as they have done on other stops on the WorldWired tour in support of “Hardwired…To Self-Destruct.”

“A big thank you to everyone attending #MetInWinnipeg for helping us raise money to support @WinnipegHarvest,” the group’s All Within My Hands Foundation posted, “a local organization dedicated to focusing attention on hunger within their community and moving toward long-term solutions.”

“Blackened” is the opening track from Metallica’s 1988 album, “…And Justice For All”, which will see its expanded 40th anniversary release arrive on November 2.

The remastered reissue will be available in multiple configurations, including a Standard Double 180 gram LP, Standard CD, 3 CD Expanded Edition, cassette, Limited Edition Deluxe Box Set and digitally as a Standard album (available to stream and download), an Expanded Edition (available for download only), and a Digital Deluxe Box Set (available for streaming and download).
