This Wednesday (May 1) in Lisbon, Metallica kicked off its European run of the ongoing Worldwired Tour, performing an 18-song set in the capital of Portugal.
Apart from the classics, the group spiced the setlist up with several deeper cuts. These included the first performance of “Frantic” – originally released on 2003’s “St. Anger” – since December 2011, as well as the live debut of the final studio version of “Lords of Summer” during the encore.
Elsewhere in the set, the band performed 1991’s “The God That Failed” for the first time since June 2012. They also played 1986’s “Disposable Heroes” for the first time on the ongoing tour, which began back in 2016.
A JamBase report branded the performance of “Welcome Home (Sanitarium)” “a highlight of the night,” during which the guys “continued their tradition of a nightly open-ended collaboration, with last night’s edition featuring a cover of ‘Censurados, Xutos & Pontapés’ as well as originals ‘ManUNkind’ and ‘Orion.’“
