Watch Metallica Play Caifanes’ ‘La Negra Tomasa’ During 2nd Show in Mexico City
Metallica played Caifanes' "La Negra Tomasa" at Estadio GNP Seguros in Mexico City. Watch.
Two days after firing up the crowd with the Norteño classic “La Chona” by Los Tucanes de Tijuana, bassist Robert Trujillo — who is of Mexican descent — and guitarist Kirk Hammett once again delivered a powerful performance of a Latin song to a cheering audience of 65,000 people who packed the Estadio GNP Seguros, according to figures from promoter Ocesa. Metallica’s history with Mexico began three decades ago with the tour of its Black Album(1991), which included five dates at the Palacio de los Deportes in 1993. Since then, the band has maintained a very close relationship with the country, where it recorded the live DVD Orgullo, Pasión y Gloria(2009), which portrays three spectacular nights at the Foro Sol (today Estadio GNP Seguros) in June 2009.
