Metallica Live Performance of One in San Francisco
In November 2005, when Metallica rocked SBC Park in San Francisco, they were riding the wave of their latest album, *St. Anger*. Released in 2003, this album marked a significant moment in their career; it showcased a raw, unpolished sound that caught fans off guard. Unlike their previous works, *St. Anger* deliberately steered clear of solos, which was quite the bold move for a band known for intricate guitar riffs. During this live performance of "One," fans could feel the energy palpable in the air, as Metallica's musical evolution had led to a fierce live act, blending seasoned showmanship with the driving force of their newer material. Interestingly, this concert also highlighted their resilience and dedication, considering that just a couple of years earlier, they were grappling with internal tensions and lineup changes. Watching them in *San Fran* that night, it was clear: Metallica was far from done, ready to redefine themselves and their legacy on stage.
