Robert has been the bass player for 20 years. Cliff for 4 years. The comments here are talking about Cliff. Goes to show what a huge impact he had. But also, guys, Robert has been killing it for 20 years! Respect

Rob has been killing it for at least 33 years. Suicidal Tendencies, Infectious Grooves, Metallica. One of the best to ever do it. Overqualified for Metallica, but deserves the paycheck.

@@johnyoungsman7752 Hmn. There is no reality where Metallica anywhere infinitely > than Suicidal And i'm pretty sure every single member of Metallica would agree on that. I know that Metallica has done Ozzy Era Sabbath cove4rs and done them well, ...not least with with Trujillo on board> But have never heard that in the reverse. Not least his bass playing in Infectious Grooves, which alone is leagues above anything Metallica has ever done with any bass player. they ever had. James isn;' a fan of bass. It's; quite apparent on basically ever album since Master. There is basically Zero bass. Not that is sounds bad but just a reality. And another reality is that Robert is a better musician than all of them combined. Almost hilariously.

Absolutely incredible groove! May Cliff Burton rest in peace.

The hardly strayed far away from the drum riser and really played together. It was particularly nice to see James having such a good time, laughing and joking. A o cool thing adopt download, was that on their first night, there was weird atmospheric conditions, a layer of cold air got trapped close to the ground by a layer of warm air. This meant the sound bounced down off the warm air and traveled further than it should, lots of reports of being able to hear the gig clearly 20-30 miles away lol

It's amazing how the guys are playing better every day... James' energy and joy invigorates us.

Pretty sure I'm right on this but there are actually 5 legends in this video as I think thats rock photographer Ross Halfin in the bottom left (mostly at the start of the video ) with the camera with the long lens. That guys a legend for sure, an untold amount of his photos have adorned bedroom walls for decades.

thank you for sharing. It's so good to see James so into it up close like that. RIP Cliff

I was listening to the first part of Orion on the way to my high school graduation last month. After graduation and on the way to universal studios I listened to the 2nd part. It feels like a theme song to when you complete something in your life.

That kiss from James to Cliff at the end. Nice.

Can't wait for August to get here. I've got tickets for both nights in Arlington and L.A.

Erynn you are killing it with thess up front posts Bro....this is alot of our dreams to be there,i was once in 1993 at monsters of rock in Houston Texas and James slapped my hand during the preformance....it was a memory I'll never forget! Thank you!❤

Metallica is so well rehearsed. you can really tell with this song. All the subtle time signature changes. Prog rock helped shape Metallica's sound for sure.

Great footage, thank you. 👍

What an awesome way to start the show off with Orion as the day ends with a spectacular sunset.

One of my favorite songs of all time. Just amazing.

I love that the mic picks up the guy in the front row singing along at 5:43. I feel his joy watching this - makes me happy.

Such a great video. The view angle makes it seem like some thing kind of trivial thing. It pulls off the legend, and brings close the people they are. Being so close to them, with this kind of soft/deaf sound, which gives the recording a unique ambience. So good seing James playing and re-feeling this amazing song, truly and deeply enjoing playing it alive, in front of this audience. It doesn´t feel like a massive concert, but a bunch of friends meeting. So much love and tenderness...

I heard Orion for the first time live last week at Download. That middle section had me streaming in tears. There is just something so special about this song, and with Cliff’s passing it just has this mythical feeling to it. You can see the band’s connection with Cliff through this song, especially James. It’s a great way to honour their fallen brother. RIP Cliff Burton you were truly special 🤘🏻

This is a sacred Metallica instrumental that very few have seen live ever! Even watching on yt made my entire day. Thanks uploader!!! \m/ \m/

This makes me think of cliff. Very emotional.

such a fun melody , one of the best tunes ever put together. this song takes you on a journey

See you in November! Can’t wait. Saw them in the 80’s & 90’s but this time my son is going. Definitely a weird concept to grasp

Love it 🤘🏼💯👌🏼 Nice spot . The are absolutely #Legendary aren't they 🇬🇧💌

Well done for capturing this on video. 👌 It is as good as it gets. Pure quality from Metallica. Lars is simply brilliant. Awesome song and awesome delivery of it by the band.

They let the original intro play. This song is the meaning of the word tribute, hands down. Cliff's sound engineering is unrivalled to this day, 40 years after his death. Rob filled his shoes perfectly. Respect to both.
