On August 30th, Pantera opened for Metallica at Lumen Field in Seattle, Washington. Those in attendance were treated to an unexpected surprise when the Seahawks Blue Thunder Drumline joined Pantera on stage, adding extra percussive flavor to "Walk". Amateur video can be enjoyed below.

Not your typical drumline, Blue Thunder uses a variety of rhythms and visuals, incorporating rock and roll drumming alongside drum corps style, endearing them to Seahawks fans of all ages. Blue Thunder is also available for parades, parties and corporate event appearances.

Some of the more prominent guests include: Alan White (Yes, John Lennon, George Harrison), Chad Smith (Red Hot Chili Peppers), Will Calhoun (Living Colour), David Garibaldi (Tower Of Power), Byron McMackin (Pennywise), Mike Derosier (Heart), Scott Rockenfield (Queensryche), Steve Smith (Journey, Vital Information), Yuri Ruley (MxPx), Matt Cameron (Pearl Jam, Soundgarden), John Tempesta (The Cult, White Zombie), Charlie Benante (Anthrax), Mike Portnoy (Dream Theater, Avenged Sevenfold), Tim Alexander (Primus), and Ray Luzier (Korn).
