Going to see Metallica

I was helping train some of my new staff this morning when one of the guys at work come up to me and asks if I would be interested in some tickets to see Metallica out here next week.  I tell him sure, ask him how much, and he just asks again if I want to go and how many tickets I want.  So I tell him sure and ask when it was (its Monday), so I tell him 2 tickets.  Then I ask how much again, and he tells me...free.  Well, um...gee I guess so. 

His wife has some connections and is able to get comp tickets sometimes at the venue Metallica is playing at next week, so lucky me.  He hooked up a few other guys too, so should be a good time.  I would normally take my son, but since its on a Monday and he has school, plus he lives 150 miles away, I gave the ticket to a friend. 

Like I said, it should be a good time.  I'm not too thrilled with their newest album, but from the setlists I've seen online they are playing a lot of old stuff too...sadly nothing from Load or Reload though, I liked those albums.

So I have that to look forward to next week.  I'll pick the kid up a t-shirt, at least thats something.  :D
