What We are Lovingly Calling ‘Metallica Meat Weekend’

We've got SO much Metallica and SO much meat for you this weekend. Here's what's up.

Saturday (8/29) is the day we are showing the totally new Metallica drive in concert at the Pharaohplex in Hamilton! Gates are at 6:30 for VIP, 7:30 for everyone and the show starts at 9 p.m. with Three Days Grace. Get there early to get in line to score freebies from KC & Shawn. Still need a pass? It's $115 for a carload of 6, get yours HERE.

To get you pumped for the show, and to celebrate the release of S&M 2, we are airing the album in it's entirety from 7 to 9 p.m. on Saturday. Tune in on your car radio for your Metallica tailgate, or tune in on your Blaze app wherever you may be on Saturday night

Metallica and the San Francisco Symphony's September 6 & 8, 2019 S&M2 concerts were historic on multiple levels: they served as the grand opening of San Francisco's Chase Center, reunited the band and Symphony for the first time since the 1999 performances captured on the Grammy-winning S&M album, and featured the first-ever symphonic renditions of songs written and released since those original S&M shows. The sold-out shows were filled with 40,000 fans who traveled from nearly 70 countries.Our two-hour radio special features exclusive interviews from James, Lars, Kirk and Robert giving a behind-the-scenes account about joining forces with the SF Symphony. You will also hear the story of Scott Pingel's tribute to Cliff Burton during"(Anesthesia) - Pulling Teeth" and Avi Vinocur providing vocal harmonies on the single "All Within My Hands."

So where does the meat come in? That's Sunday. I will be broadcasting from noon to 2 p.m. from the Southgate Mall parking lot where Essential Foods will be offering 20 USDA steaks for just $40. They've got mega deals on seafood, chicken and steaks galore. Come by, I will have free downloads of the entire S&M2 album and more deals than you can shake a stick at.
