Metallica performed a cover of Rare Earth's "I Just Want to Celebrate" for the first time in seven years. It was last performed on October 28, 2007 at the Bridge School Benefit.
The boys performed their cover of Deep Purple's "When a Blind Man Cries" live for the first time.
Ozzy's favorite song by The Beatles is "In My Life," so it was fitting that the band performed it for him.
The night was capped off by a cover of the Ozzman's own "Diary of a Madman."
All net proceeds from the sale of downloads of this show will be donated to the MusiCares MAP Fund.
