Metallica performed at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, California Saturday and the band decided to play a little of Van Halen’s “Runnin With The Devil”. The shortened version of the VH classic was a tribute to the group that formed in Pasadena. As reported in the Blabbermouth story, James Hetfield told fans “That’s all I can sing”…”That’s a little homage to the Pasadena boys, Sorry you had to put up with that”.
