You might have heard that the Talica boys were going to play some heavy shit tonight. Welcome to Metal Up Your Podcast, I'm Ethan Luck, and this is yet another episode of Metal Tails from the Road.

And today we're going to be talking to our friend Chad Pollock about Boise, Idaho, at the Taco Bell Arena.

What's up, Chad?

Oh, how are you doing?

I'm well, man.

Did Taco Bell give out any free burritos or anything the other night?

No, we still call up the pavilion, which was what was called when we were kids so it's really

funny when big corporations like buy up arenas and they change the name like there's one in

louisville called the kfc yum center it just sounds silly well i understand that you know you got

to do it for money but still it's going to be the BSU Pavilion forever.

Right, yeah.

I remember the amphitheater I grew up going to in Orange County was always called Irvine Meadows.

And then once Verizon started buying all the amphitheaters up, then it became Verizon Wireless.

But yeah, it's always going to be the Irvine Meadows or like the where the Anaheim Ducks play was always just called the Anaheim Pond.

Right.

And then now it's the Honda Center, but locals now call it the Ponda Center.

But anyways, enough about corporate sponsorships.

Let's give you the people a little idea about you.

Okay, you're obviously, you're listening to the show, you're a patron, a good friend of the show,

but let's let the good listeners know kind of your history with Metallica and when you came

online with the band.

Well, I'm 46, so like most people my age, I came along line with the one video.
