-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I went to this show, because I loved Metallica and had never seen them yet, and this was as close i was going to get. I did see the real thing in 2004.

I didn't know what to expect from this band, but i thought they did a really good job.

I hated the set list and wanted to hear material from the Cliff Burton era. I don' t like anything after 1992.

At one point I had to use the men's room, and i accidently tapped the stop button, but instead of it being shut off,

it just slightly moved the record head away from the tape and the tape kept spinning but wasn't capturing any sound.

About 10 minutes later i flipped tape. Only later did i realize i missed 1 or 2 songs.

As i was running out of tape, I decided to pause the recorder between songs to save tape. I think i left after my tape ran out.

During track 11, the singer talks about how they were recently asked by Metallica to be their opening act on 5 dates in November 1998.

Dates of the GARAGE INC. Tour. Venues include:

11/17/98 The Warehouse Toronto ON
11/19/98 Aragon Ballroom Chicago IL
11/20/98 The State Theater Detroit MI
11/23/98 Electric Factory Philadelphia PA
11/24/98 Roseland Ballroom New York NY

The quality is just good enough to listen to. nothing great. remember this is a small, dumpy little bar that was packed and loud.

Luckily my recorder handled the volume without getting distorted.

I never thought I'd transfer and upload this, but I just wanted to put something related to Metallica up on Dime.

This is as close to the MET, that we'll see here.

This isn't the greatest set list or recording, but it is what it is.

Check out the samples and decide if you want this.

I'm sure there are plenty of Dimers that have seen this band and know they do The MET justice.
