On this episode of the That Sound Podcast, hosts Gavin and Luke break down Metallica’s killer Night 1 performance at the Sonic Temple Festival in Ohio! We’re joined by special guest Shep, a die-hard Metallica fan from Detroit who just hit her 25th Metallica show — and trust us, she’s got some WILD stories.
From volunteering at the festival to fund her spot on the entire North American tour, to hopping the rail with James Hetfield’s guitar tech ‘Chad’, Shep takes us behind the scenes. Hear how she helped set up those iconic inflatable beach balls, snagged a backstage pass, and even had her mom chat with Chad on the phone at a show!
Tune in for setlist reactions, backstage moments, and insider Metallica tour life you won’t hear anywhere else.
