The week of August 23, 2023 on The Metallica Report...\n\nSteffan and Renee check in with Robert for his thoughts on night one in Texas, just moments after he left the incredibly energetic AT&T Stadium! And with LA on the M72 horizon, the West Side native talks about his upbringing steeped in beach and skate culture and his later-found appreciation for the East Side.\n\nNext, we stay in LA but flash back to Metallica\u2019s early days with Metal Blade Records president, Brian Slagel, for a first-hand account of the excitement (and errors!) surrounding the band\u2019s first break. And finally, we hear the first installment of our newest feature, Crew Tips, kicking off with Foster, the woman who transforms backstage at each venue into the band\u2019s home away from home.\n\nThe Metallica Report - your official, weekly guide for all things Metallica, straight from the source. New episode every Wednesday.\n\nLinks:\n#M72LA Interactive Map: https://m72map.metallica.com/losangeles\xa0\nLive Metallica: Arlington, TX - Two ShowBundle: https://metallica.lnk.to/arlington-live-met\xa0\nMetal Blade Records\u2019 \u201cMetal Massacre\u201d: https://www.discogs.com/master/63482-Various-Metal-Massacre\xa0\nWanna be featured on a future episode?
