This set was the fifth of five shows played that winter in LA, and it also happens to include the only live performance of “Leper Messiah” in the 90s, as well as the infamous “Am I Evil?” instrument switch.

We’re teaming up with The Metallica Black Box to bring back their Black Album Archival Livestreams series! Streaming for free and exclusively for nugs.net subscribers, we’ll be re-airing the ten rare, Wherever We May Roam performances unearthed from the Metallica Vault last year. These aren’t like the professional productions you see today; these original recordings are a true snapshot of the time, including video from Betacam tapes with the occasional camera dropout and raw soundboard audio. All content has been digitally transferred, and audio has been mastered by Reuben Cohen at Lurssen Mastering, but the standard definition charm remains.
