Metallica Makes Fans Dance to Norteño Classic ‘La Chona’ at Mexico City Concert: Watch
Metallica bassist Robert Trujillo performed the Los Tucanes de Tijuana classic "La Chona" on Sept. 20 at the GNP Seguros Stadium in Mexico City.
Metallica gave its first concert in Mexico City in seven years on Friday (Sept. 20), and the band’s bassist, Robert Trujillo, took the opportunity to pay tribute to his Mexican roots by performing a peculiar song: “La Chona,” by famous corrido group Los Tucanes de Tijuana. Since then, the band has maintained a very close relationship with the country, where they recorded their live DVD Orgullo, Pasión y Gloria(2009), which portrays three spectacular nights at the Foro Sol (today GNP Seguros Stadium) in June 2009. Metallica’s production team filmed the entire show on Friday and, according to the Mexican newspaper Reforma, next week it will make special shots at tourist spots such as Teotihuacán, the Historic Center, Chapultepec, Coyoacán, and San Ángel.
