monsters of rock la coliseum 1986 their best show


watching them completely blow ozzy off the stage in 85/86 was a thing never thought possible, with cliff they were probably one of the best bands of all time., no one could touch the energy and power they played with. it all came to a head at the la coliseum at monsters of rock, musta been summer of 1986, the crowd rioted and tore the entire infield fence down that kept the people in the stands from entering the floor of the place, once the fence fell the crowd stormned the floor and the staff was picking out people to brawl with, one on onefights everywhere, was totally insane, crowd started throwing the metal barricades and chairs, metallica started playing damage inc ,the staff finally abandoned the crowd and just surrounded the stage. the entire coliseum was a free for all, no security anywhere except the stage. I counted 7 slam huge slam pits...hetfield says " I see you guys are a little restless out there hahaha cool"
