7. Metallica's Live Shows: Engaging The Fans
http://youtu.be/ZpKetOQ-wLo?t=3m16s There is no live concert experience like seeing Metallica perform. For over 30 years they have grown from a small bar act to one of the few bands that can continue to sell out arenas on multiple nights for multiple shows. And as they have grown over the years, so has their live act, from the early days of only the amps and guitars, to the now-legendary performances that continue to fill stadiums across the globe. And this is all due in very large part to the special relationship that the band has with their fans, and how they keep them involved in the show each and every night. From mid-song sing-alongs to interactive enclosures like the Snake Pit to most recently the giant Metallica-logo'd beach balls that pour out the top of the staging, there is always something new to experience when you see Metallica live. No other band engages their fans and their live crowds quite like Metallica, and their performances are now a thing of legend - something that no other rock act can consistently live up to.
