The legend band’s drummer, Lars Ulrich poured out his thoughts on the festivals and expressed his gratitude upon the opportunity to perform for his beloved fanbase. In a press conference, the 55-year-old musician talked about the upcoming performances,

“I really don’t think that much about the setlist that much in advance. We like to go deep and dust off things that we haven’t played for a while. It’ll be fun, it’ll be challenging, but we thrive on this shit – and any time we get a chance to do anything outside of the norm, Metallica are four very happy guys. I don’t want to freak anybody out, but it may not come together until about 24 hours before the first show, but it will definitely come together.”

He further added:

“I think that the beauty in this is that it will be special. I think that all five of these festival appearances, all 10 of these shows will be unique. Every set is different and, obviously, it won’t be the same five groups of two setlists, so all 10 of these shows will be different.”
