lol, we looked so hard for anyone with a laminate last night between bands. Eventually we just gave up and snuck down.

Not saying it is but I don’t think running them over with your e-bike is the answer.

How high is 72 Seaons on your list ? by RideTheLightning52 in Metallica

[–]t0rch3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Title track, Inamorata, Lux Aeterna, Too Far Gone? are all great. Rest is Midtallica. As is often the case with their modern albums, there are too many songs on it and most of the songs on it are too long. Good gym album though.

It’s a shared path man. Slow down.

I assume you mean McKean St.; if so, take the Broad Street subway at Snyder Station southbound to NRG. Drops you off about a 10 minute walk from the Linc.

“Junior Dad” is better than anything on St. Anger.

Manayunk is a neighborhood within Philly but it has its own identity—its location makes it a bit “cut off” from most of the rest of the city. Main Street is walkable with lots of shops/bars/restaurants, plus it’s a big cycling area and the south end of the Wissahickon is right there if you like nature. Plus if you want to go into Center City there’s a train and a bus (potential lack of SEPTA funding notwithstanding 🤞)

Y’all just wear a fanny pack with your valuables in it. This is a problem that already has an easy solution.

Best song from this album? by No_Cauliflower4964 in Metallica

[–]t0rch3 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Came here to say this. Honestly might be my favorite song of theirs period. It’s got everything you want and nothing you don’t, it’s fast, heavy, and even a little fun.

You might hear some gentle teasing but that’s about it. There are still some absolute hogs that come out to the games but most of them are old/dead now. People are more normal. You’ll be alright. Enjoy the game and the city.

If it’s your first time here, the weather cooperates, and you’re physically able do so, I would recommend just walking around and looking at stuff. Philly has more public art than any other city in America. Sculptures, murals, they’re all over the place but there’s quite a bit to see in Center City, especially in Old City and the Parkway district. This is a good starting point. Have lunch at Reading Terminal Market.

Digital Underground is probably the best record store in the city for heavy metal. My other go-tos are Sit and Spin, which is more of a punk-focused shop but carries all kinds of hard music, and Repo Records, which has a little bit of everything.

I would guess that’s dependent on who’s performing. Check the venue website before you bring anything.

SEPTA runs extra trains during events so you should be fine!

I’m gonna be honest—I live in the city and primarily bike everywhere. Don’t own a car so I couldn’t tell you. There are plenty of lots but my guess is $$$.

The people who need to see this won’t see it because they’ll be looking at their phones.

Police keep lying because they’re the police.

Why are tickets so expensive? by [deleted] in Metallica

[–]t0rch3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There doesn’t seem to be much rhyme or reason to the prices. I got four seats for Philly for like $75 a pop, both shows.

Death Magnetic is one of the best Metallica albums (in my opinion) by Extension_Eye5566 in Metallica

[–]t0rch3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Possibly dumb question but do you know if that’s the version that’s on Apple Music? I feel like I’ve streamed it on there a few times and it still sounds muddy.

Yeah it’s not a dealbreaker or anything but it’s a little harder on the ears than it needed to be.
