Ron McGovney:

This is the show that the “Metal Up Your A**” live tape was recorded. It was to be included in the expanded release of No Life til Leather but…well y’all know what happened.

November 29th, 1982: Metallica played their first headlining gig in San Francisco.
The lineup was James Hetfield, Lars Ulrich, Ron McGovney & Dave Mustaine.

Kirk Hammett’s band Exodus supported on that same gig.
