Artist	City	Date (dd-mm-yyyy)	Source	Vid Quality	Audio quality	Gen Info	nr of discs	TV-system	Xtra's	Remarks
1983
Metallica	San Francisco	19-3-1983	AUD	C	C	3rd	1	PAL	None	"Bleix" 3rd Gen transfer. Don't expect too much from this one qualitywise, the show sucks both videowise and audiowise. On the other hand it's the earliest known video of 'tallica and the only one with Dave Mustaine and Cliff Burton playing together, and piece of history
1986
Metallica	Detroit	4-4-1986	AUD	B-	B+	Low	1	NTSC	None	One of the most anticipated releases in a long time, here is Detroit '86. Original audio has been replaced by a new way better source, making it a lot more enjoyable. The video is a bit generated and skaky, but this is by all means a valueable piece of 'tallica history released by CjCooter
Metallica	Uniondale	28-4-1986	AUD	B-	B-	Mid Gen	1	NTSC	None	"Battery" is somewhat cut. This is one of very few quality-wise watchable video's with Cliff Burton on it.
Metallica	Uniondale	24-4-1986	AUD	B+	B+	1st	1	NTSC	None	From the DamageInc Classics Series comes a better transfer of this classic Cliff-era show, and I must say it's a shitload better to watch compared to the other version I had, by far not as much red color bleeding and the audio seems to be a bit better too. Get this one
Metallica	Anaheim	9-11-1986	AUD	C+/B-	C+	Low Gen	1	NTSC	None	A fairly mediocre vid, probably shot from a tri-pod…which is uncommon for '86. Close-Up's and zooms are nice, but when the camera is zooms out it's difficult to see what’s happening at times in additions the the somewhat generated quality of it all
Metallica	Quebec City	5-12-1986	AUD	B+	B+	Low Gen	1	NTSC	86 Photo Gallery	SPAWN UPGRADE. This one knocked me flat the second I watched. Excellent video probably shot from Tri-Pod. Nice zooms and close-ups. Too bad the venue is so dark….which degrades the quality a bit, still GO AND GET THIS ONE.
Metallica	Quebec City	5-12-1986	AUD	B++	B++	1st	2	NTSC	None	Upgrade from a true 1st Gen source. Steady video and nice audio. Still, as with other versions it's quite dark.
1987
Metallica	Gothenburg (2-cam mix)	13-2-1987	AUD/SNB	B-	C/A+	Mid Gen	2	NTSC	None	2-cam mix of this show. Video is quite generated and shaky and overall not too happening, but the added soundboard audio (where it was available) makes this one very cool nonetheless.
Metallica	London	20-8-1987	AUD	B+	B+	2nd	2	PAL	None	For a 2nd gen it looks surprisingly good. Video is a tad obstructed sometimes. There's a power outage on Fade to Black. The only time Crash Course In Brain Surgery was played. + a girl screaming like a PIG sometimes. Debut of Leper Messiah live
1988
Metallica	East Rutherford	26-6-1988	AUD	B+	B+	Low Gen	1	NTSC	None	This is a very cool show. Taped from the pit about 5 or 6 row from the front. The video can be a bit shaky at times, but has some very cool close-ups. The audio however is great. Too bad "Sanitarium" is cut.
Metallica	Dallas	3-7-1988	AUD	B-	B-	2nd	1	NTSC	None	Somewhat rough to watch. Overall rather steady filming, but the audio is rather distorted and had drop-outs all over the place.
Metallica	Olso	18-10-1988	AUD	B-	B-	Mid Gen	1	PAL	Gentofte '91	I's only apartial show, quite a bit blurry, shaky and cut up, but the Pro-Shot clips from Gentofte '91 make up for it quite a bit
Metallica	Bruxelles	29-10-1988	AUD	B-	C	1st	2	PAL	None	Actually the video itself is pretty decent if not for a bit of blur here and there. However what really hurts this one is the scratchy and distorted audio. It could have been a lot better if it wasn't for the audio.
1989
Metallica	Tulsa	28-1-1989	AUD	B-	B-	Mid Gen	1	NTSC	None	A somewhat scratchy, shaky and generated show that doesn't quite live up to the standarts set by the likes of Hartford '89 or Middletown '89. An audio upgrade of some sorts would make a lot of difference though
Metallica	Philadelphia	12-3-1989	PRO-Shot/SNB	B+	D-	Mid Gen	1	NTSC	None	This could have been a real gem, if only the audio hadn't been SO SHITTY. The audio is just crap, very much distorted. There's also a lower gen copy, but that one also suffers from CRAP audio. The video that would not be.
Metallica	Philadelphia	12-3-2009	AUD	B+	B+	2st	2	NTSC	None	SabKissCrue/Norbinho 1st gen transfer. IMHO to be preferred over the Pro-Shot version of this gig because it has better audio. This new transfer is also a tad better then the deadbase transfer.
Metallica	Troy	15-3-1989	AUD	B-	B+	1st	1	NTSC	None	A bit shaky at times, and also a quite blurry with severe levere light glare in spot, however the audio isvery nice which makes up for what the video lacks in spots
Metallica	Troy	15-3-1989	AUD	B+	B++	1st	2	NTSC	None	1st Gen upgrade, and what a difference it makes. Lifts this show up from a collection filler to a must-have. Awesome shit.
Metallica	Hartford	17-3-1989	AUD	B+	A-	Low Gen	1	NTSC	None	Awesome video, with suffers from a minor bit of obstruction, but has excellent audio to it. For "old shit" fans this is….well…..the shit to go for
Metallica	Toronto	7-4-1989	AUD	B-	B/B+	Low Gen	1	NTSC	None	Pretty decent vid, it's a tad distant though so no real closeups. The audio ua pretty good too, just a hint of distorion here and there, but nothing too disturbing
Metallica	Middletown	14-7-1989	AUD	B+	A-	Low Gen	1	NTSC	xtra bootleg clips	This vid is great, but a bit shaky at times. Contains some excellent close-ups shot almost in front of the stage. But what makes this xtra good is the audio, which is nearing soundboard quality. Too bad a few songs are cut. Still GET IT
Metallica	Sao Paolo	7-10-1989	AUD	C	B-	High	1	NTSC	None	Rather crappy video, and distorted audio, but the vibe is totally awesome for some reason imho. If only a master source came out of this show
Metallica	Sao Paolo	7-10-1989	AUD	B+	B+	2nd	2	NTSC	None	Full show w DAT-audio. A lot more enjoyable to watch then the 1-disc version I got first.
1990
Metallica	Zwolle	16-5-1990	AUD	B/B-	B/B+	Low Gen	2	PAL	None	Interesting but still a tad shaky and blurry video at times, the audio is quite good though. 3 Audio streams are included, all of 'em pretty decent. Too bad "The Shortest Straw" and "....And justice for all" are missing
Metallica	Leiden	20-5-1990	AUD	B	B	1st	1	PAL	None	Interesting show. WVMonster audio upgrade. Taping is rather shaky at times and the audio remains a tad muddy here and there, but still good to watch every now and then
1991
Metallica	Kopenhagen	10-8-1991	AUD	B+	B-	MASTER	1	PAL	None	Suffers a bit from obstruction early in the show. Also audio ain't that happening, but when there no obstruction taper has a pretty good shot a thing's happening on the stage.
Metallica	Kopenhagen (2-cam)	10-8-1991	AUD	B+	B+	MASTER	1	PAL	None	Interesting 2-cam mix taken from two MASTER sources. Both angles are a tad shaky here and there, but not too disturbin all in all.
Metallica	Donington	17-8-1991	AUD	B+	B+	Low Gen	1	NTSC	None	This is the "stage shot" version of this gig, which is a shitload better then the distorted screenshot version. A tad blurry though and the audio can be just a little distorted in spots and also some obstruction here and there, but overall this is a very enjoyable vid.
Metallica	Hasselt	30-8-1991	AUD	B-	B-	Mid	1	PAL	None	Rather rough to watch with it being s mig gen copy.
Metallica	Dortmund	18-9-1991	AUD	B-	B-	1st	1	PAL	None	Pretty sweet video. Video has some "block-noise" too it, but the audio on the other hand is quite nice. Pretty steady taping overall
Metallica	Moscow	28-9-1991	PRO-Shot/SNB	A-	B+/A-	1st	1	PAL	None	Upgrade concerns mostly the video, the audio is still rather muffled but somewhat better compared to other versions I've seen. Still, from historical point-of-view a "MUST HAVE"
Metallica	Peoria	29-10-1991	AUD	B+	B+	MASTER	3	NTSC	None	"DamageInc" MASTER. First FULL ON show of the "Wherever We May Roam" tour and all that in nice quality noth audio and video-wise. Although the video is a tad shaky up 'till the bass solo, but after that the taper finds a better spot, and seems to use a Tri-Pod great show
Metallica	Detroit	3-11-1992	PRO-Shot/SNB	A-	B+/A-	MASTER	1	NTSC	None	Awesome recently surfaced Pro-Shot thx to Dave Jr. Too bad only a part of this show was allowed to be released, but notheless an awesome addition to the collection.
Metallica	Minneapolis	8-11-1991	AUD	B+	B+	2nd	2	NTSC	None	Decent show to watch with rather enjoyable audio and video quality, but there's better shows out there from this particular era
Metallica	Toronto	15-11-1991	AUD	B+	B+	Low	1	NTSC	None	Overall a rretty decent Black Album era show, but I've seen better.
Metallica	Uniondale	20-12-1991	AUD	B+	B-	1st	2	NTSC	None	UPGRADE. Nice vid. Nice mix between screenshot and stage. Audio can be a tad scratchy, but not too disturbing.
1992
Metallica	Sacramento	10-1-1992	AUD	A-	A-	Low Gen	2	NTSC	none	This is VERY cool vid. Has a minor bit of grain to it, but it can’t be other then a low-gen transfer. Likely tri-pod shot, some cool closeups and the audio is awesome too….WOW
Metallica	Los Angeles	6-1-1992	AUD	B+	B+	Low Gen	2	NTSC	None	Very nice and steady vid with a good mix of stageshots and screenshots. Audio is very nice good too. When the camera is zoomed out it's a tad blurry though
Metallica	Albany (2-cam)	28-2-1992	AUD	B+	B-	1st	2	NTSC	None	WVMonster release. Very nice and long ass show. Partly screenshot too. Nice and steady camera work and audio is great also. Pretty much a must have if you ask me
Metallica	Carbondale	4-3-1992	AUD	B+	B	1st	2	NTSC	None	A rather muffled and muddy video compared to other gems from early '92. "Am I evil?" is cut and "Damage Inc." is missing. Maybe a master source could make this one a whole lot better to watch.
Metallica	Champaign	5-3-1992	AUD	B+	B-	MASTER	2	NTSC	None	Video is hella nice, clear and steady. The audio is a tad distorted, which degrades the overall quality a bit, but in general this one is very pleasant to watch
Metallica	Chattanooga (2-cam?)	12-3-1992	AUD	B-	B-	Low Gen	2	NTSC	None	Supposedly a 3-cam mix, tho I haven't been able to spot more then 2 angles. It looks all a bit generated. In addition the audio is quite a bit scratchy too. One to fill up the gaps at this point nothing more
Metallica	Jacksonville	15-3-1992	AUD	A-	A-	1st	3	MTSC	None	One from the DamageInc Classics series, and boy does he deliver once more. Excellent audio and great steady video. Must have
Metallica	Orlando	16-3-1992	AUD	A-	A-	MASTER	2	NTSC	None	Invaders release. 2nd angle, totally different from St. Metal's version. Awesome show all in all. Pity NEM, Larz' hot-ass Drum Solo and Kirks guitar solo are missing, but still an awesome addition to the collection.
Metallica	Pensacola	24-3-1992	AUD	B+/A-	A-	Low	2	NTSC	None	Invaders release. Pretty good video and awesome audio, tho the video somehow looks a tad generated. Still a worthy addition to any collection
Metallica	Binghampton	12-4-1992	AUD	B+	B+	MASTER or 1st	2	NTSC	None	Very awesome vid. Good steady taping, nice closeups, very nice audio and a great setlist (as ever on the "roam" tour).....yeah better get this one if u don't already have it
Metallica	Pullmann (2-cam mix)	6-5-1992	AUD	A-	B+	MASTER + 1st	3	NTSC	None	An awesome 2-cam mix of a MASTER source and a 1st Gen source plus awesome audio all in all. Very cool addition to the collection
Metallica	RFK Memorial Stadium out-takes	17-7-1992	Pro	A-	A-	Low	2	NTSC	None	Year-And-A-Half out-takes that didn't make it to the final cut. Color-Upgrade version.
Metallica	Oakland	24-9-1992	AUD	B+	B+	1st	2	NTSC	None	Pretty cool show, tho the video is a bit distant. Audio is quite nice all in all. The only video bootleg with John Marshall playing guitar.
Metallica	Gent	22-10-1992	AUD	B+	B+	1st	2	PAL	None	Another pretty cool show from late '92. First gig of the European leg of the tour. There's better bootlegs out there, but also a lot worse. In general a worthy addition to the collection
Metallica	London	24-10-1992	AUD	A-	B+	1st	2	PAL	None	Shot by Niclas Swanlund. Nice steady taping. Great close-ups. Too bad the audio can be a bit muddy at times, but still very much worth getting
Metallica	Rotterdam	8-11-1992	AUD	B+	B	2nd	2	PAL	None	Pretty decent vid. Overall nice steady taping with some occasional shakyness, but not too disturbing. Audio is pretty good too. I've seen worse but also much better video's
Metallica	Den Bosch	7-12-1992	PRO-Shot/SNB	A	A+	MASTER	2	PAL/NTSC	5 tracks from Basel '93	You can’t go wrong with this one, Awesome video and audio and a kick ass setlist. Too bad about the blackouts in between the songs, but even that can't stop this video from being probaly the best video bootleg from the old days
Metallica	Gothenburg (2-cam)	12-12-1992	AUD	B-	B-	Low Gen	1	PAL	None	A bit of a rough ride here. It's a 2-cam mix, but both angles are rather shaky and the audio ain't to happening either (echoy and distant) It's a pity, but despite this being a 2-cam mix, it's ain't more then a collection filler IMHO.
Metallica	Olso	14-12-1992	AUD	A-	A-	MASTER	2	PAL	None	MASTER uprade. Awesome show all in all, excellent shot from the stands using a tri-pod most likely, cool close-ups, and very cool audio. GET THIS.
Metallica	Helsinki	16-12-1992	AUD	B	B-	1st (?)	2	PAL	None	I dunno wether this is a legitimate or a VCD transfer. The sound is kinda VCD-like bad but the video could well be a legitimate 1st gen transfer. Need to look into it sometime. Whatever it may be, the quality IMHO lacks compared to other gig of this tour. Consider it a filler
1993
Metallica	Hershey	26-1-1993	AUD	A-	A-	MASTER	3	NTSC	none	AWESOME 3-DVD. Great steady filming and great audio. A hint of grain to it and a bit dark at times, but other then that there's not much to complain about. About as good as it gets for an audience recorded show IMHO. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
Metallica	Amherst	15-2-1993	AUD	A-	B++	MASTER	2	NTSC	None	Quality stuff. Must have. Awesome sharp and steady filming and very nice audio
Metallica	Charleston	17-2-1993	AUD	A-	B/B-	1st	2	NTSC	none	Amazing video. Rock steady taping, obviously from a tri-pod. Too bad the audio is a bit muffled, but overall you can;t really go wrong with this one
Metallica	St. Peterburg	19-2-1993	AUD	B+	B+	Low	2	NTSC	None	Another interesting vid from the TBA era. Decent audio and video quality. A 4-disc MASTER source from Damage Inc./SabKissCrue is also available, so better look for that one if you want this show
Metallica	Melbourne	3-4-1993	AUD	A-	B+	MASTER	2	PAL	Meet 'n Greet with Jason	Another interesting INVADERS release. Pity it's really cut up. Nearly all songs on the 1st disc are cut. Video can be a bit shaky too. Possibly is a 2nd source of this show, but INVADERS can't confirm neither deny this, since the taper hasn't responded to his questions about it.
Metallica	Melbourne	4-4-1993	AUD	B++	B++	MASTER	2	NTSC	None	Awesome audio and video quality here, but some kind of weird effect seems to have been applied to the video with degrades the overall quality a bit imho.
Metallica	Perth	8-4-1993	AUD	A-	A-	MASTER	2	PAL	None	This is a REAL GEM. Rock-steady taping, obviously from a tri-pod, VERY COOL close-ups and all this in AMAZING quality, both video and audio-wise. Too bad it has some obstruction at times though. You just can't go wrong with this one.
Metallica	Osaka	22-3-1993	AUD	B+	B+	MASTER	2	NTSC	None	Quite a nice recording with some cool closeups…although a bit shaky at times and it has a few cuts…due to the fact that security caught the taper, but he was allowed to continue filming in the end. This is the "DON'T SEND TO JAPAN" show
Metallica	Sao Paolo	1-5-1993	AUD	B-	B	Low Gen	2	NTSC	None	A rarity here that Elmoz let out recently. Part of it is supposed to be out but this is the the full show. Quality is OK, tho the video seems a tad generated and shaky to me and the audio is rather distant. But still, it's nice to see a rare show coming out.
Metallica	Santiago de Chile	4-5-1993	PRO-Shot/SNB	B+/A-	A	1st	2	NTSC	None	Somewhat grainy Pro-Shot. Multiple Pro-Shot video sources with excellent audio under it. Overall it's a somewhat dark video, but still very nice. The excellent audio makes up a lot for what it may lack video-wise
Metallica	Santiago de Chile	4-5-1993	PRO-Shot/SNB	A-	A	MASTER	2	NTSC	None	MASTER upgrade, with better video quality, event though over the years the MASTER tapes appear to have degraded in quality a bit. Audio is excellent soundboard. Overall a kick-ass show I'd recommend to anyone out there
Metallica	Basel	20-6-1993	PRO-Shot/SNB	A-	A-	1st	1	NTSC	None	I must have gotten myself at least 4 versions of this onem but they all had bad-sectors or errors of some sort. But finally I have this show withour errors or bad sectors. What's left to say, overall great show.
Metallica	Torhout	3-7-1993	AUD	B+	B	1st	2	PAL	None	Pretty cool vid, although a bit shaky at times because it was taped from the pit. Audio is quite nice too. A bit special since it's almost the last show of the "Roam" tour
1994
Metallica	Syracuse	5-6-1994	AUD	A-	B++	1st	3	NTSC	None	release from the DamageInc classics series and compared to the other version this is the shit. Quality stuff. Awesome video and audio
Metallica	Allentown	7-6-1994	AUD	A	A	MASTER	2	NTSC	None	DamageInc/Sabkisscrue MASTER. As usual with DamageInc/Sabkisscrue top-notch quality all the way. Great steady camera work and sweet audio.
Metallica	Wantagh, NY	8-6-1994	AUD	B	B+	Low/Mid (?)	1	NTSC	None	This is a pretty decent show, although there are better ones from this particular era. The video seems a tad generated, but the audio is quite good. Hope to get the 2-disc version sometime though 'cause that one appears to be a lot better
Metallica	Wantagh, NY	8-6-1994	AUD	A-	A-	MASTER	3	NTSC	None	DamageInc/Sabkisscrue MASTER upgrade. This upgrade makes this show from collection filler into a must-have. This one is up there with the top shows of '94
Metallica	Mechanicsburg	15-6-1994	AUD	A-	B-	1st	2	NTSC	None	Tri-pod shot, supposedly with Lars'explicit permission. The video is awesome, nice and steady. Too bad the audio is a bit scratchy, and "breadfan" is cut. Still, plenty to enjoy though.
Metallica	Middletown	17-6-1994	AUD/SNB	A-	A+	Low Gen	2	NTSC	4 audio streams	The video is a tad generated, but still very goog at that. The thing that makes this one really stand out is the fact that there's no less then 4 audiostreams to choose from (including soundboard and excellent auudience recordings) RECOMMENDED
Metallica	Austin	6-8-1994	AUD	A-	B+	1st	2	NTSC	None	Awesome AUD tri-pod shot show. A bit shaky when taper focusing on a different spot of the stage, but overall you can't go wrong with this "Summer Sh*t" show
Metallica	Houston	7-8-1994	AUD	B+	B+	MASTER or 1st	1	NTSC	None	Pretty awesome but at times a bit shaky vid. Aud is nice. Too bad the last three tracks are missing.
Metallica	Saugerties	13-8-1994	PRO-Shot/SNB	A-	A+	1st	1	PAL	3 Irvine '96 tracks	Awesome Pro-Shot vid, although my version has weird white lines on both sides. Also 3 excellent Pro-Shot tracks from Lollapallooza '96
Metallica	Saugerties	13-8-1994	PRO-Shot/SNB	A+	A+	MASTER	1	PAL	None	Tad better quality with no weird lines on the sides. In addition a re-mixed and re-mastered 5.1 audiotrack had been added to this version to ultimately combine the best videosource with the best audiosources out there. Can't go wrong with this one
1995
Metallica	London	23-8-1995	AUD	B+/A-	A-	1st	2	PAL	MTV '95 stuff	Very nice vid shor from tri-pod. Excellent close-up's. 2 audio streams, of which the first one sucksm but the 2nd stream is great. Overall….great show
Metallica	London (2-cam)	23-8-1995	AUD	A-	A-	MASTER/Mid	2	PAL	None	This is an amazing vid. The right angle is a MASTER source and the middle common angle most likely a mid/low gen source, and together with beautiful audio they make a great show to watch. Glad this one is no longer NFT
Metallica	Donington	26-8-1995	AUD	B+	B+	MASTER	2	PAL	Full Blindmans Ball '97	Full 2 disc Master copy of the awesome Escape from the studio '95 show at Donington. Very nice quality considering it's audience recorded.
1996
Metallica	San Jose	4-6-1996	AUD	B-	B	MASTER	1	NTSC	None	Daytime Truck-LOAD show at Tower Records Parkinglot in San Jose.Video can be incredibly shaky and the audio a bit distorted here and there, but compared to the version that was out there, this one is much better videowise.
Metallica	Sacramento (2-cam)	4-6-1996	AUD	A-	A-	MASTER	1	NTSC	Irvine '96 Pro-Shot clips	A nice 2-cam mix of the MASTER tapes. Truck-LOAD show from Tower Records Parkinglot in Sacramento recorded in the evening. Nice vid and nice audio too.....a bit short, but well worth getting
Metallica	Rockford	30-6-1996	AUD	B+	B+	MASTER	1	NTSC	None	Pretty distant but rather enjoyable video if you like Lollapalooza. Audio is decent, but there's no real zooming on this one, so it's all a tad distant
Metallica	Quebec City	7-7-1996	AUD	B-	B	1st	1	NTSC	none	Pretty decent "Lollapallooza" show. Audio is quite enjoyable. Too bad the camerawork is a bit shaky at times and has some obstruction too it here and there, but still a rather enjoyable bootleg video of an early LOAD era show
Metallica	Irvine	3-8-1996	AUD	B+	A-	2nd	1	NTSC	None	Cool show recorded on Jaymz' birthday. Most interesting thing thougfh is the fact that Lemmy comes on stage and plays 'Overkill' with metallica doing the bass and vocals.
Metallica	Brunssum	10-9-1996	AUD	B+	C+	MASTER	1	PAL	3 LOAD era live tracks	Show in The Netherlands for a Motherload contest winner and his buddies in a Local Pub in Brunsum. Video quality is very acceptable with a little bit of opstruction here and there, very sad the audio is quite a bit distorted
Metallica	Dublin	9-10-1996	AUD	B+	B-	Low	1	PAL	None	Pity this show is not complete. All songs after the Kill/Ride Medley medley are missing. This is however a rather enjoyable show with pretty interesting shots and fairly decent audio
Metallica	London	13-11-1996	PRO-Shot/SNB	A++	A++	MASTER	1	NTSC	Interview	Short but sweet, nothing much to say really. WVMonster version of this video with correct aspect-ratio and a short interview Jools Holland did with the band added. Pity the interview stuff look quite a bit worse then the music, but atleast now it's complete
Metallica	Stockholm (errors on DVD's)	16-11-1996	AUD	B-	B-	Low (?)	2	PAL	None	A bit shaky and somewhat muffled sound IMHO, but I'm awaiting a soundboard upgrade that will make it a shitload better to watch. Also this one is quitye a bit rare I think
Metallica	Helsinki	19-11-1996	AUD	B+	B-	1st	2	PAL	None	Pretty decent show all together. Too bad about the obstruction here and there and rather distant audio.
Metallica	Kopenhagen	27-11-1996	AUD	B+	C/A+	MASTER	2	PAL	none	Very cool show. 2 audio streams available (one being shitty audience, and the other excellent soundboard audio) Too bad a few songs are cut, and the video can be a bit shakey at times, still awesome bootleg vid.
Metallica	Fresno	19-12-1996	AUD	A-	B+	1st	2	NTSC	None	Overall nice show. Filming is excellent nice close-ups and such. Audio sounds a bit muffled, but not distorted or whatever…great show
1997
Metallica	Chicago	9-2-1997	AUD	A-	B+	Low Gen	1	NTSC	None	Nice vid, most interesting because "Fuel" was played for the first time life.
Metallica	Hamilton	24-2-1997	AUD	B++	B++	MASTER	1	NTSC	None	Just a great straightforward "Poor Touring Me" show from Canada. steady taping (especially when you consider how far away in the stands the taper is), great audio. Too bad "the first part of "So What" is missing, but still a highly recommended show
Metallica	Quebec City	29-3-1997	AUD	B++	B++	1st	2	NTSC	None	Yet another awesome show from Canada. Rock steady tri-pod taping, awesome audio. In short all that it takes to make this a GREAT video....Highly recommended once more
Metallica	Albany (2-cam)	6-4-1997	AUD	A+	A+	Low	2	NTSC	None	This is quite something here.....2-cam mix, with both angels in exc ellent quality, and on top the audio is top notch too (it is audience recorded, but it sounds close to soundboard) Get this one if you can...you will not be disappointed.
Metallica	Greensboro	12-4-1997	AUD	A-	B+	Low	2	NTSC	CoC set	Awesome show, too bad the audio is a bit low/distant but just turn up the volume and you'll be alright. A 30 minute CoC set comes as a bonus prior to 'tallica hitting the stage
Metallica	Stuttgart	23-8-1997	PRO-Shot/SNB	A-	A+	MASTER	1	PAL	None	WDR broadcast. This show is also available on VHS in one of the FanCan's
Metallica	Stuttgart	23-8-1997	PRO-Shot/SNB	A+	A+	MASTER	1 (DL)	PAL	Interview stuff	Swedish broadcast of the Blindman's Ball show put on a dual layer DVD. Videowise it's a bit of an upgrade because a dual-layer DVD allows a  much higer bitrate, and all in all the vidoe looks quite a bit better, even tho the other version isn't at all bad, this one is just a tad better
Metallica	Reading	24-8-1997	PRO-Shot/SNB	A-	A+	1st	1	PAL	None	Nice Pro-Shot vid. I prefer this one over Blindmans Ball because the audio seems to be mixed a helluva lot better
Metallica	Reading	24-8-1997	AUD	A-	B+	MASTER	1	PAL	None	We all know the Pro-Shot version of this gig, but this audience shot version is totally awesome too. Very nice video and the audio is great too. Too bad 'bellz'  and 'motorbreath' are cut, but this is a massive upgrade over the audience version that was already out there
Metallica	Philadelphia (2-cam)	11-11-1997	AUD	B+	B-	Low	1	NTSC	None	Nice to see this audience shot 2-cam mix. Taping is pretty solid and sharp for handheld overall. Naturally you have a bit obstruction here and there. The audio is a bit distant though, so that could have been better IMHO
Metallica	Philadelphia (FanCan)	11-11-1997	Pro-Shot/SNB	A-	A-	1st	1	NTSC	None	The free Parkinglot Gig they did in Philly. Video is a bit grainy and audio has a few drops here and there. Still hoping to get a better transfer. FanCan VHS-DVD transfer.
Metallica	Hamburg	15-11-1997	Pro-Shot/SNB	A+	A+	MASTER	1	PAL	various Pro-shot clips	Awesome Pro-Shot bootleg video. Accompanied by various interesting bonus clip too. If you don't already have it, go and get it..it's worth the effort of getting really
Metallica	Kopenhagen	16-11-1997	AUD	B-	B-	Mid	1	PAL	None	A bit of rarity that showed up recently….too bad the quality isn't that good. Video is OK-ish tho with some half-decent zooms and all, but the audio flatout sucks.
1998
Metallica	San Francisco	21-3-1998	PRO-Shot/SNB	A-	A+	MASTER	1	PAL	Fuel @ NSL & Promo clip	Cool Pro-Shit vid. Latin American version which has 2 different song compared to the North American version. Great stuff
Metallica	Seoul	24-4-1998	Pro-Shot/SNB	A-	A-	1st	1	NTSC	None	Cool show from South Korea. Too bad the Kill/Ride medley is cut and one of the acoustic tracks is missing. Also Jaymz voice is a bit difficult to hear is spot, but apart from those three things you really can't go wrong with this one.
Metallica	Philadelphia	23-11-1998	AUD/FM	B+	A-	2nd	1	NTSC	None	Video is a bit too dark for my liking, but the FM audio makes it up a good deal. Quite a nice "Garage" show, but I still prefer the New York show of the next day.
Metallica	New York	24-11-1998	PRO-Shot/SNB	A	A	1st	1	NTSC	None	Full covers-only show at Roseland Ballroom in awesome quality both video-wise and audio-wise. Can't go wrong with this one. Too bad the chapers are put in the right spots, but that's all
Metallica	New York	24-11-1998	PRO-Shot/SNB	A	A	1st	1	NTSC	None	Basically the same full live-covers show, but with garage-style menu's en chaptermarks where they're suppose to be. Audio also remixed as this version seems to have a little more high-tones hearable (cymbals and such)
Metallica	New York	24-11-1998	PRO-Shot/SNB	A+	A	1st	2	NTSC	None	Killer upgrade to an already excellent show from DamageInc./Sabkisscrue. Killer audio and video all the way, making this the best version out there as of now
1999
Metallica	Bogota	2-5-1999	PRO-Shot/AUD	B-	C+	Mid (?)	1	NTSC	None	Rather shitty Pro-Shot with audience audio, NO SOUNDBOARD. Audio is especially choppy and messed up. In addition the transfer to DVD is somewhat shitty. So until the actual pro-shot surfaces I'd say AVOID THIS ONE
Metallica	Santiago De Chile	12-5-1999	PRO-Shot/SNB	A-	A+	Low Gen	2	NTSC	None	Appears ot be an upgrade over the 1-disc version. Overall the video is a tad generated but not too disturbing, but the audio is crisp and clear.  But hell...what am I complaining about it's am awesome PRO-Shot I'd recommend to anyone.
Metallica	Rock Im Park 1999	21-5-1999	PRO-Shot/SNB	A	A	MASTER	1	PAL	None	Incomplete but rather enjoyable Pro-Shot covering the last part of the "Rock Im Park" show in Nurnberg, Germany. Crisp video and audio, too bad it's incomplete.
Metallica	Plovdiv	11-6-1999	PRO-Shot/SNB	A-	A+	MASTER	2	PAL	Pre-show interview	"Otto" master upgrade. Sweet Pro-Shot, although it's a bit grainy in spots. "Of wolf and man" is missing for some reason…still very much worth getting
Metallica	Kiev	27-6-1999	PRO-Shot/SNB	A-	A-	1st	1	PAL	None	The best and sadly also the least complete version of the Kiev Pro-Shot. Video is pretty awesome and the audio too, tho some songs have a few glitches or are cut up
Metallica	Kiev	27-6-1999	PRO-Shot/SNB	B+/A-	B-	Mid	2	PAL	None	The good thing is this version has only 2 songs missing, the bad thing is the quality is considerably worse. While the video still looks pretty decent for a mid-gen the audio in particular sounds really muffled and low
Metallica	Kiev	27-6-1999	PRO-Shot/SNB	B+/A-	B	Mid	1	PAL	None	Yet another version of the Kiev gig, a 1-disc version this time around. The video looks OK, but the audio also sound rather muffled and low, tho a tad better then the 2-disc mid-gen version listed above. Also has 2 songs missing
Metallica	Kiev	27-6-1999	PRO-Shot/SNB	A+	A+	Very Low	1	PAL	None	To conclude the Kiev package here's 10 minute TV report from Ukrainian TV. Quality is awesome. The usual interview stuff and some live bits here and there. If only the whole gig was available is this quality
Metallica	Paris	7-7-1999	AUD	B+	B+	Low	1	PAL	'96 backstage video	With '99 being the year of the Pro-Shit it's hard to find a few decent AUD recorded gig. However this one is rather enjoyable. Pretty steady taping and rather decent audio.
Metallica	Rome, NY	24-7-1999	PRO/Shot/SNB	A	A	MASTER	1	NTSC	None	Digital Broadcast version, which is the best out there. Nice Pro-Shot not much to comment on really.
2000
Metallica	Seattle	23-6-2000	PRO-Shot/SNB	A-	A	1st	1	NTSC	None	Pretty decent FULL version of this show. The audio is excellent. Too bad the video has some kind of flickering to it, maybe has something to do with the "wrong" field-order. Will look into it sometime.
Metallica	Baltimore	4-7-2000	PRO-Shot/SNB	A	A+	Low Gen	1	NTSC	None	Nice Pro-Shot video. Too bad there's an occasional black-out and the intro of "King Nothing" is cut. But overall it's an awesome "Summer Sanitarium 2000" video.
Metallica	Baltimore	4-7-2000	PRO-Shot/SNB	A	A+	1st	3	NTSC	None	Another killer upgrade from DamageInc/Sabkisscrue. Outstanding quality for both audio and video. Best version out there. 'King" still has a minor cut in the intro tho
Metallica	Sparta	8-7-2000	AUD	B++	A-	Low	1	NTSC	None	No Jaymz this show due to problems with his back. Vid quality is OK but a tad distant, the audio is great though. Not too fond of the guys helping out the band, but it's an interesting event to watch IMHO
Metallica	San Francisco	14-7-2000	PRO-Shot/SNB (webstream)	B/B-	B+	1st	1	NTSC	None	Another "Summer Sanitarium 2000" show. Quality-wise a bit of step down compared to the Baltimore show, but still quite watchable. If this one had only been a TV broadcast instead of a Webstream.
Metallica	Cicero	22-7-2000	AUD	B-	B+	2nd	1	NTSC	None	Rather enjoyable. The video is somewhat shaky with frantic zooming in and out here and there, but for a 2nd gen vid it's pretty awesome all in all
Metallica	VH1-Awards	30-11-2000	PRO-shot/SNB	A+	A+	MASTER	1	NTSC	None	This is an amazing 11 minute gem….Jason's last performance including in MASTER quality. Also including scene's of band receiving award and some other shit from VH1 award show. "Fade to black" sounds WAY better on this version…this is history
2003
Metallica	Nurburg Ring	8-6-2003	PRO-Shot/SNB	A	A-	MASTER	1	PAL	None	Full MTV sourced TV boradcast. The video is great, but the audio mix is somewhat messy at times (see also v2)
Metallica	Nurburg Ring	8-6-2003	PRO-Shot/SNB	A	A+	MASTER	1	PAL	None	Pretty much the same as the above version, except the WDR audio is put on this one (including "sad" and "sandman") which is IMHO way better then the MTV audio. Still looking for the 2-disc WDR FULL broadcast though.
Metallica	Barcelona	21-6-2003	AUD	B++	B++	MASTER	1	PAL	None	Awesome recording aal in all, too bad it's taken from quite a distance, a little more close up front would have been nice, but nonetheless very much worth getting
Metallica	Roskilde	26-6-2003	AUD/SNB	A-/B+	A+	MASTER	2	PAL	None	Awesome some with excellent FM broadcast audio punched in. Too bad the video has some obstruction and shakyness to it here and there, but overall this is a very cool show to watch and listen to
Metallica	Toronto	5-7-2003	AUD	A-	B+	MASTER	1	NTSC	None	Pretty cool show. Video is most excellent for an audience recording, too bad the audio is somewhat low and muffled. If you like this era this is a must have I guess
Metallica	Tokyo	6-11-2003	AUD	A-	B++	MASTER	1	NTSC	None	Another damn cool show from the St. Anger tour. Video angle and quality kicks ass, but the audio is somewhat low and muffled. Nonetheless a worthy addition to the collection
Metallica	London	20-12-2003	AUD	A-	A-	MASTER	1	PAL	None	This is killer AUD video. Amazing quality video-wise and audio-wise. Too bad it can be a bit shaky and has some obstruction to it every once in a while, but still a worthy addition to the collection
2004
Metallica	BDO '04	23-1-2004	PRO-Shot/SNB	A-	A+	1st	1	PAL	None	A tad generated, but with most excellent audio. BDO '04 selection broadcasted on TV.
Metallica	Melbourne	28-1-2004	AUD	B-	B-	Low	1	NTSC	None	quite a bit good but nothing special all in all.
Metallica	Uniondale	20-4-2004	AUD	A-	A+	MASTER	1	NTSC	None	Pretty damn cool show. #1 angle of this show. LM.com audio mixed into it as well. A 2-cam mix is also available so if you want it better grab that one, but nonetheless this one is pretty cool too.
Metallica	Lisboa	4-6-2004	PRO-Shot/SNB	A-	A-	MASTER	1	PAL	None	The video has a minor bit of grain to it, and the audio is only 128Kbps so a better version (2 disc version anyone) would be nice, but overall it's very nice
Metallica	Donington	6-6-2004	AUD/SNB	B+	A+	MASTER	1	PAL	None	A tad shaky at times, but with LM.cm audio on it and this show being special due to Larz' absence this is quite a cool show to watch. Video is pretty good despite the occasional shakyness.
Metallica	Gelsenkirchen	10-6-2004	AUD	B++	B++	Low	1	PAL	None	Rather enjoyable all in all. Video is nice and steady. Audio is good and clear as well, but since I find this tour rather lame I can’t say too much about it really.
Metallica	Zaragoza	19-6-2004	AUD	B+	A+	MASTER	1	PAL	None	A highly incomplete show. Video is rather shaky. The tracks included on this video do have LM.com audio mixed into it to make this one a little bit better tho
Metallica	San Jose	28-11-2004	AUD	B++	A+	MASTER	1	NTSC	None	Incomplete recording of the last show of the St. Anger tour. Available tracks go with LM.com audio which makes this one somewhat more enjoyable, but nothing too special all in all.
2006
Metallica	Centurion	18-3-2006	AUD/SNB	B+	A+	MASTER	2	PAL	None	Finally, one of the South Africa '06 shows on DVD. Part screenshot and part stage shot, with LM.com audio synch into it. Pretty amazing shit all in all. Too bad the video is a bit dark here and there, but that doesn't really hurt this one too much.
Metallica	Nurburg Ring, Eifel	3-6-2006	PRO-Shot/SNB	A+	A+	MASTER	2	PAL	None	WDR digital broadcast of Rock Am Ring. Mint quality. I've replaced the original audio with LM.com audio…which is WAY better IMHO
Metallica	Arnhem (3-cam)	8-6-2006	AUD/SNB	A+	A+	MASTER	2	PAL	MetOnTour vid	3 excellent video sources put together into one awesome 3-cam mix, not to mention the LM.com audio. In one word…stunning.
Metallica	Donington (multi-cam)	10-6-2006	AUD/SNB	B++	A++	MASTER	2	PAL	None	Excellent multi-cam mix. Too bad the angles of the different sources don't differ all that much and there's not a whole lot of zooms in there. This one has LM.com audio on it, which  adds a little extra to this one
Metallica	Nickelsdorf	15-6-2006	AUD/SNB	A-	A+	MASTER	3	PAL	3 audio streams	A very cool, but sometime a little shaky and obstructed video. However the addition of LM.com audio makes this one a must-have"IMHO
Metallica	Tokyo	12-8-2006	PRO-Shot/SNB	A	A+	1st	1	NTSC	None	4 tracks recorded in Tokyo broadcasted by MTV Japan or something. This video has some weird grey lines on the sides, but overall the quality is very good, too bad it's only 4 songs though
Metallica	Seoul, South-Korea	15-8-2006	PRO-Shot/SNB	A++	A+	MASTER	1	NTSC	None	AMAZING HDTV -> MPEG2 rip….stunning quality. "sanitarium" and "roam" weren't broadcast and thus missing
2007
Metallica	London (Live Earth)	7-7-2007	PRO-Shot/SNB	A++	A++	MASTER	1	PAL	None	A bit of a project of my own I guess. I downloaded the original HD files, downscaled them to DVD and in addition I added an extra audio track containing the LM.com audio, which is mixed way better then the original audio from the broadcast which sounded muddy at times
Metallica	London (4th source)	8-7-2007	AUD	A-	B+	MASTER	1	PAL	None	Pretty decent recording of the headliner gig @ Wembley stadium, still aiming to get the multi-cam version one of these days tho.
Metallica	London 13-cam mix	8-7-2009	AUD	A+	A+	MASTER	2	PAL	Photo-Gallery	Nothing short of amazing 13-cam mix. Also includes multiple audio stream. When it comes down to multi-cam boots, this is a MUST-HAVE without doubt
Metallica	Moscow	18-7-2007	AUD	A	A+	MASTER	3	PAL	None	Totally awesome 4-cam mix covering Metallica's return to Moscow. 4 decent angles, nice audio including LiveMet. What do you want more. MUST HAVE if you ask me. A 4th disc with bonus-stuff is also available, but I didn’t download the fourth disc
2008
Metallica	Irvine, KROQ Weenie Roast	17-5-2008	PRO-Shot/SNB (webstream)	A-	A	MASTER	1	NTSC	None	2008 Turns out to be another great your for Pro-Shot recordings, and it all started with the Weenie Roast gig. Considering it's authored from a Webstream, it's most excellent 'cause there's plenty to enjoy watching this show, let alone a few digital glitches here and there
Metallica	Chorzów	28-5-2008	AUD	B++	B++	MASTER	2	PAL	None	MASTER source from Krzych. Somewhat enjoyable, but it doesn't particularly stand out between all the Pro-Shot of the same period. Video and audio are both rather distant too.
Metallica	Landgraaf	30-5-2008	PRO-Shot/SNB	A	A-	MASTER	1	PAL	None	Recorded from ip-TV here we have a stand-out but unfortunately incomplete video of the PinkPop gig. Too bad the audio-mix is a bit lame, but hey there's still plenty to enjoy here.
Metallica	Lisbon	5-6-2008	PRO-Shot/SNB	A+	A	MASTER	1	PAL	None	Totally kick-ass Pro-Shot from Rock In Rio. The audio is a bit low here and there but a must-have nonetheless.
Metallica	Nurburg	7-6-2008	PRO-Shot/SNB	A+	A-	MASTER	1	PAL	None	MTV broadcast from Rock Am Ring. While the video is most excellent MTV magages to fuck up the audio mix (as usual) but LM.com audio could make this one into a MUST-HAVE as well
Metallica	Nurburg	7-6-2008	PRO-Shot/SNB	A+	A+	MASTER	1 DL	PAL	LM.com audiostream	DL version of Rock Am Ring 2008 with additional LM.com audiostream available, which makes this one all that much more enjoyable to watch and listen to
Metallica	Manchester, TN	13-6-2008	PRO-Shot/SNB (webstream)	A	A	MASTER	1	NTSC	None	Damn awesome web-stream from the Bonnaroo gog. Another Pro-Shot from 2008. What more can u ask for (besides more Pro-Shot recording ;) )
Metallica	Reading	24-8-2008	PRO-Shot/SNB	A	A	MASTER	1	PAL	None	Partial but very enjoyable Pro-Shot from the Reading Festival. Can’t go wrong with this one I guess
2009
Metallica	Rotterdam	30-3-2009	AUD	A	D	MASTER	1	PAL	None	Highly incomplete recording of the Rotterdam show from Rogier/Sailinghome, but since I was there I just had to have it. Only 'Life' and 'Sandman' appear to be complete.
Metallica	Rotterdam	30-3-2009	AUD	A-	A	MASTER	2	PAL	MetOntour + 2 liveclips	Finally a complete recording by DEEP666SINGE of the show I went to. Synched up LM.com audio and an additional excellent audience audio recording. Also includes MetOnTour clip from this gig and 2 clips ("Life" and "Sandman") from the Rogier/SailingHome with LM.com audio on it
Metallica	Cleveland,OH	4-4-2009	PRO-Shot/SNB	A+	A+	MASTER	1	NTSC	1080i HD file	TOP NOTCH 1080i HD file covering the Rock n Roll hall of fame induction ceremony. Amazing to see the guys hammering it out with Jason, and a cool all-star jam with some of the best musicians ever.
