Get ready for an unforgettable night as Metallica takes the stage at the Beyon Al Dana Amphitheatre in Bahrain! One of the biggest-selling acts in American history, Metallica will bring their iconic sound and explosive energy to the region for a powerful, career-spanning performance.Metallica was born on October 28, 1981, when drummer Lars Ulrich and guitar player/singer James Hetfield got together via Ulrich’s LA Recycler newspaper ad. Soon, the two recruited Hetfield’s friend and housemate Ron McGovney to play bass, Dave Mustaine to play lead guitar, and they took the name Metallica after a suggestion from Bay Area metal scene friend Ron Quintana. Their ascent was to be relatively quick, driven by sheer work-rate, effort, and a rare musical chemistry. After hitting the opener’s circuit in LA (where they supported the likes of Saxon), they recorded their first-ever demo, No Life ‘Til Leather. The tape-trading circuit went wild for it, and after repeatedly well-received shows in the Bay Area, Metallica found themselves relocating there after convincing bassist Cliff Burton to leave his band Trauma and replace McGovney.
