Metallica Plays Battery at Sphere Residency in Las Vegas
Metallica is revived older songs during its ongoing Sphere residency in Las Vegas, which runs for five months and continues its M72 world tour afterward.
Metallica has been playing Battery, the 1986 album opener, as part of its ongoing residency at the Sphere in Las Vegas, and a pro-shot video of the October 15 performance has been posted on its YouTube channel. The Sphere shows kicked off on October 1, and the band revived a number of older songs for the five-month run.
On the opening night, the title track of the 1988 album ...And Justice For All was played for the first time since 2014. At a later show, Devil's Dance from the album Reload was played for the first time since 2008. On a special Halloween show on Saturday (October 31), Metallica played Of Wolf And Man from 1991.
Metallica's Sphere shows have been a great success, with all of the planned dates there having long since sold out. Metallica will play two intimate shows at the Mohegan Sun Arena in Connecticut on November 19 and 21, celebrating the venue's 25th anniversary.
After the residency wraps up on March 13, the band will continue its M72 world tour with a leg of North American shows, supported by Limp Bizkit and Avatar.
