Metallica Bids Farewell to Mexico With La Sonora Santanera’s ‘Los Luchadores’: Watch


Metallica plays La Sonora Santanera's "Los Luchadores" in Mexico during its final show in the country. Get the details.

Bassist Robert Trujillo and guitarist Kirk Hammett once again surprised the crowd who gathered at the GNP Seguros Stadium (formerly known as Foro Sol) with a performance of another classic from the Mexican popular songbook: “Los Luchadores” by the legendary tropical music group La Sonora Santanera. With the band’s unique interpretation of La Sonora Santanera’s classic song, the quartet ended a series of performances in Mexico City that marked its return to the country after a seven-year absence. Since then, the band has maintained a close relationship with the country, including recording the live DVD Orgullo, Pasión y Gloria(2009), which portrays three spectacular nights in June 2009 at the Foro Sol (now the GNP Seguros Stadium).
