METALLICA has posted another video as part of its new concert series, "#MetallicaMondays", where the band is streaming a complete live show for fans on the group's YouTube channel and on Facebook every week. The latest concert to be shared was recorded exactly 20 years ago, on frontman James Hetfield's 37th birthday, on August 3, 2000 at Starplex Amphitheater in Dallas, Texas. The band's setlist was as follows: 01. Creeping Death 02. For Whom The Bell Tolls 03. Seek And Destroy 04. Fade To Black 05. Fuel 06. Sad But True 07. No Leaf Clover 08. King Nothing 09. Mastertarium 10. Battery Encore 1: 11. Nothing Else Matters 12. I Disapper 13. One Encore 2: 14. Turn The Page (Bob Seger cover) 15. Enter Sandman Encore 3: 16. Last Caress (MISFITS cover) 17. So What (ANTI-NOWHERE LEAGUE cover) 18.
