If you’re still a little ticked off at the Grammy’s for messing up Metallica’s performance with Lady Gaga on Sunday night’s show, we have found a some relief.
As you know, during the 2017 Grammy Awards performance, James Hetfield’s mic looked like it wasn’t working, but that’s not ENTIRELY true. Apparently, shortly before the performance, a stagehand accidentally unplugged a mic cord leading to the main board that would be sending the vocals out to the crowd and to the TV audience. HOWEVER, if you were watching online, you would never know anything was wrong, as the audio was still connected to that sound output. There was a video of that avail;able for a short time, however, Metallica felt they owed the fans a perfect full performance. And lo, the metal gods conjured this: The complete and near perfect dress rehearsal. Thanks you to the folks who decided to film it!
So we’re in luck fellow Metallica fans! Kick it up full screen and crank it, cuz this baby is in HD! YES!
