The show itself took place on July 26 at the Cosmopolitan Music Hall inside Cosmo Music in Richmond Hill, Ontario, Canada, which is the single largest musical instrument store in North America. The gig coincided with the opening of "It's Alive! Classic Horror And Sci-Fi Art From The Kirk Hammett Collection" at the Royal Ontario Museum in Toronto, which is running through January 5, 2020.
Hammett and Trujillo were joined by Whitfield Crane and Joey Castillo, and they performed a variety of songs by the likes of Motorhead, Black Sabbath and AC/DC. Check out a selection of the fan-shot videos below!
