Metallica fans lashed out recently as the official Instagram of the thrash-metal legends posted a video of the group performing twenty years ago in Detroit to celebrate New Years’ Eve 2000. Various superfans of Metallica were quick to point out that Jason Newsted wasn’t in any of the shots! Metallica icon allegedly ‘busted’ with alcohol by cops.
Instagram user Josh_C_Denver wrote: “Did they cut Jason out from this video???” While kmilomillerockman questioned: “Where’s Jason?” and indra_itu_armand stated: “I don’t see Jason.” However, all of this was one big miscommunication as the official Metallica Instagram account responded and explained what exactly was going on. The account assured each superfan that the link to the full video is on youtube as well as linking to it in their Instagram stories – also assuring everyone that Jason Newsted did perform that night.
