Metallica Stops in Winterpeg

James and the boys played Winterpeg on Canadian Thanks Giving. And according to a local review, fans had reason to be thankful.

I didn't get to the show but apparently the gig was no turkey. Here's a write-up about the Metallica show in a local paper.

As for the opening act, here's what the reviewer who penned the article had to say about Lamb of God. I would've loved to have seen these guys. Randy Blythe is wicked.

"Prior to Metallica, Richmond, Va. quintet Lamb of God set the tone with a crushing 45-minute set. Their in-your-face sludgy southern thrash, with some demonic death metal howls courtesy of vocalist Randy Blythe thrown in for good measure, prove these guys are the worthy successors to Pantera."

Minus Dimebag Darrell (RIP)... but I couldn't agree more.
