METALLICA Play Abbreviated Set At First Copenhagen Show Due To JAMES HETFIELD Falling Ill

Metallica's first of four shows in Copenhagen, Denmark at the Royal Arena, on February 3rd, did not go as planned due to frontman James Hetfield falling ill. The band ended up playing an abbreviated set, dropping two songs, although Hetfield could have cut the set shorter due to his condition. He let the audience decide how the evening would play out; check out the video clips below. 

The setlist on the night was as follows:

"Hardwired"
"Atlas, Rise!"
"For Whom The Bell Tolls"
"Fuel"
"The Unforgiven"
"Now That We're Dead"
"Moth Into Flame"
"Harvester Of Sorrow"
"Confusion"
"One"
