Very cool over all, but note that second listed act. Metallica. The Bridge School is an acoustic show. Hard rock acts have played it before, usually with great success. However, I'm wracking my brains to figure out what the loudest garage band in world will play when the guitars are unplugged. The "headliners" get 3-5 songs.

Enter Sandman is a given. Nothing Else Matters would lend itself to the setting, I think. [livejournal.com profile] kshandra suggested The Memory Remains (and wouldn't it be cool to get Marianne Faithfull out to do the "na-na-na" parts?) I'd love to hear them pull out a speed metal classic like Hit The Lights or For Whom The Bell Tolls.

So, fellow metalheads.. what would you like to hear Metallica play acoustic?
