Metallica: Ride the Lightning (Mexico City, Mexico - March 5, 2017) 

Can we just appreciate the Mexico folks for a moment? Look at 5:08! There are almost no people recording with their phones, everyone's with their hands in the air, cheering and having fun! Fucking amazing!!

“WHERES RIDE THE LIGHTNING!?!?” Right here Kirk

Kirk finally got Ride the Lightning 🥹

drum sounds great james is never getting older kirk nailed that solo Metallica 😘

Damn Kirk destroyed that solo. So nice to see him nailing it

My dad left my mom when i was 6 but now i realize how much metallica was like a father figure for me. All 7 of them with cliff, jason, and dave

James: his voice is getting better and better! Kirk: Actually nailed the solo! Rob: Awesome, keep it up, great bass player, better than Jason in my eyes. Lars: Can't understand why people pick on him, he's a hell of a drummer. And the crowd: YES!

Finally drums and bass are mixed properly!

Yeah, the sound quality in this one is way better then the previous upload!

Look at that freaking crowd!!! Also, people who most likely couldn’t touch Kirk on guitar make their snide remarks. Kirk is a legend. His solos are completely memorable and he is an absolute gift to Metallica. Horns up!!!

Kirk looks elegant in every show these days 😂😂

damn Kirk was on fire .. that solo was lit AF..

This is the best version live. Crowd was in it, band was in the pocket, everything came together. Even Kirk nailed the solo.

The best experience of my life♡

Love seeing the crowd like this it makes metallica hyped

It seriously sounds like they've been practicing and taking rehearsal seriously. The solo was nailed, the rhythm sections are just tight if not even tighter. The bass and drums are just thundering just like a lightning storm. These boys are seriously dominating songs. Good job, and please do keep it up.

Great performance! I feel like Metallica is the most over analyzed band ever for their performances. They're still amazing, who cares if they don't play perfectly? Christ guys get over it

you guys do realize this song was made in 1984, 33 years ago, created 8 albums after that and you expect them to play this song EXACTLY as it was meant to be played? you guys are nuts!

this song never gets old... Metallica then now and forever \m/

Mr. Lars Ulrich ladies & gentlemen! The poor guy gets picked on a lot, but that was a stupendous performance. Credit where it is due!

Presente en el concierto, de poca madre, hasta adelante, viendo a la banda tocar!!!!

The ultimate kings of live performances

Got tickets for next months show in Sioux Falls SD! All my prayers have been answered! Can't wait!!!

OMG kirk just NAILED that solo holy shit :D That was awesome

still shredding after all these years, love it

Lepard shirts and painted nails. Well.....Kirk has always gone through dressing phases. Rock on brother.

Thank God we still have Metallica, Megadeth, Testament, Anthrax, Iron Fucking Maiden, Judas Priest and Overkill from the old school to delight us with their music.

Thanks Metallica for showing me and others what you can achieve if you take time and learn. Rock on 🤘

Insane crowd. Love it! Great performance ♡

Anyone notice the huge fcking trays of beer just slowly moving through the crowd at 5:00 😂😂

1:37 - James' best vocals since the 80's!

Metallica ruleeeees! 35 years and still kicking ass!! the best in Mexico City

from 4:26 Lars is actually double-kicking :-O I am impressed

am i the only one who directly listened to the solo before listening to the entire song??

Kirk Hammett did awesome on his solo

Kirk's performance is stellar here.

Probably one of my most favorite song! Sounds amazing!

Metallica still kicking ass in 2017, Cool as ever, thank God.

You can rat on Kirk and yes inspiration currently maybe low.........but the guy created iconic solo's and still shreds them. Yes there maybe some fluff notes but music to me aint about perfection, it s about conveying an emotion.

stay strong and rocki'n metallica!!! rock nroll never die!!!

Who's watching in 1948?

I love the work they put in

This is really a great performance , very tight and on point to the album.

Every Metallica song I listen to from that era , I am like “this is probably their best song” .. same with you all ?

Viva Mexico 🇲🇽

Metallica was one of my first love in metal bands.I can enjoy pretty much on this performance,but this drumming just killing my joy even thou everything sounds great.

Mexico will always be your home!!!! Metallica

This is one of the best performances I've seen from them in these hardwired tour videos. Kirk fucking nailed that solo. Lars was playing pretty damn good, and I could actually hear the double bass run.

Viva Metallica cabrones!!!! 🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟

Ride the Lightning 🤘🏻🤘🏻❤️

James' singing is awesome! With the proper mix, James' voice sounds like his voice in 2009-2013, and btw, Lars an Kirk are making a great job! Hope they keep this proper sound mix.

Afortunadamente tuve el gran honor de asistir las 3 fechas y tengo que decir que fueron de los mejores días de mi vida, pues igual era la primera vez que los veía, gracias Metallica por tu música y espero verlos más. 🤘🏻

Viva México cabrones!!!!❤

Finally!!!! This is good and perfect sound!!!!

wow Kirk really nailed that solo!

They are amazing at live concerts

Solo: NAILED

Aguante Metallica!! 🤘

Timeless.

Good performances again after 25 years!!

"Where's Ride The Lightning" *Kirk about 3 years later* YAY!!

Listening to this song for 18 years, and it still makes me want to mosh through that entire audience \m/

i got goosebumps after kirk played the solo

Love Metallica 🤘💓🤘

I Love you Metallica 🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸

Metallica: Ride The Lighting Guilty as charged But damn it, it ain't right There is someone else controlling me Death in the air Strapped in the electric chair This can't be happening to me Who made you God to say I'll take your life from you Flash before my eyes Now it's time to die Burning in my brain I can feel the flames Wait for the sign To flick the switch of death It's the beginning of the end Sweat, chilling cold As I watch death unfold Consciousness my only friend My fingers grip with fear What I am doing here? Flash before my eyes Now it's time to die Burning in my brain I can feel the flames Someone help me Oh please God help me They are trying to take it all away I don't want to die Someone help me Oh please God help me They are trying to take it all away I don't want to die Time moving slowly The minutes seem like hours The final curtain call I see How true is this? Just get it over with If this is true, just let it be Wakened by the horrid Scream Freed from the frightening dream Flash before my eyes Now it's time to die Burning in my brain I can feel the flames

Awesome song will not stop loving this song

I feel like they need a heavier guitar tone

Oh Yeahhhhh !! METALLIA is the God of metal band forever !! Please come to Japan again !!

nice to see kirk not being so sloppy ! i wish the best for metallica \m/

I wanna be at a Metallica show. In Mexico. You guys kick ass, big time :D

Kirk being our guitar hero for many years, and now some are bashing him. "Way to turn your backs on your hero, traitors!" Judge and criticize a legend, with a great personality.

Cant wait to see them in Baltimore! this is a bucket list thing for me definitely! love them!

05/03/17 my first concert and it was metallica

How could I live 15 years without this?

Kirk is on fire!!!

love metallica.

The Day That Never Comes please :'v

Kirk's been practicing! Fuck yea man!!!

KILLER SOLO!!!!!!! (AS ALWAYS)

Kirk, man you're looking great!

Una de Mis Favoritas ride the lighting me Encanta el Sólo de Kirk Hamet lo Amo Flaco hermoso❤

Am I the only one who thinks that James' voice ages well compared to his other Big 4 contemporaries?

Os fã do México são mais empolgantes! Chega dar arrepios!

Kirk the Destroyer of Solo's! \m/

Unos de mis solos de guitarra favorito

GOOD GOD!

I love how they all stayed around lars while kirk was hammering that solo out like letting him have the stage 🤘

James sound pretty damn good after 30 years
