7 headbangers + 47 minutes of circle mosh to Metallica’s 1984 album Ride the Lightning. In an attempt to generate enough static electricity to summon even more lightning, mankillers in the middle of the field. COT laying on the pavement, rain gently falling from the sky.
We were going to listen to the black album, but there were so many flashes and so much thunder from the oncoming storm that we had to pivot. Good times reminiscing about the old days when music was raw and cassettes needed rewinding. And after all that, the storm never came. Takeaway is: never wait on the rain. Ride the Lightning.
