METALLICA's official YouTube channel Metallica TV has been updated with fly-on-the-wall footage shot by a MetOnTour.com reporter on July 6 at the U.K. edition of the Sonisphere festival, which was held at Knebworth Park in Hertfordshire. The 11-minute clip includes footage of "Fuel" and "One" from the show. The band's setlist for the concert was as follows:01. Battery02. Master Of Puppets03. Welcome Home (Sanitarium)04. Ride The Lightning05. The Unforgiven06. Fuel07. Lords Of Summer08. Sad But True09. Fade To Black10. Creeping Death11. One12. For Whom The Bell Tolls13. Blackened14. Nothing Else Matters15. Enter SandmanEncore:16. Whiskey In The Jar17. ...And Justice For All18. Seek & DestroyAs previously reported, METALLICA stars in the latest ESPN "This Is SportsCenter" ad. The clip, which debuted on Monday night (July 14) during this year's All-Star Home Run Derby, plays off the idea that the band members don't know what to do with themselves since Yankees star reliever Mariano Rivera retired last season and took his "Enter Sandman" entrance music with him — so the band begins a desperate search for something else to do. Drummer Lars Ulrich said, "Sometimes it can be quite freeing to put yourself at the mercy of others. ESPN's commercials have a tendency to be hilarious. We were like, 'That sounds like a good time.' The whole thing had an overriding impulsivity to it."The long-running series of comical "This Is SportsCenter" ads promote ESPN's "SportsCenter" sports news show.The commercials, which debuted in 1994, are presented in a deadpan mockumentary style, lampooning various aspects of sports and sports broadcasting.After completing a recent European festival run, METALLICA has just one show on its calendar for the rest of 2014, at the Heavy MTL festival in Montreal on August 9.The band is slated to enter the studio and begin recording its 10th studio album this fall.
