This week we sit down with Matt Thomas, a pyro technician who recently worked on the U.S. Worldwired stadium tour. Matt gives us the details of what it takes to set up a pyro show for Metallica, the precautions taken, unpredictable weather, band involvement and so much more. Matt has become a good friend of ours and we can't thank him enough for taking time out of his busy schedule to chat with us. If you saw the Worldwired stadium tour, then you saw the result of Matt and his team's hard work day in and day out...with little sleep. E-mail us your thoughts at metalupyourpodcastshow@gmail.com
