LAMONT’S MUSIC NOTES-JULY 22, 2019…METALLICA PLAYS SHORELINE IN 1994 ON THE ‘SH** HITS THE SHED’ TOUR. THE TOUR SAW METALLICA PLAY 51 SHOWS IN NORTH AMERICA IN 1994. SUPPORT ACTS FOR THIS TOUR WERE DANZIG,CANDLEBOX, FIGHT, AND SUICIDAL TENDENCIES. IT’S INTERESTING TO NOTE THAT ROBERT TRUJULLO WAS THE BASSIST FOR SUICIDAL TENDENCIES, AND 9 YEARS LATER, HE WOULD END UP JOINING METALLICA.
ANOTHER THING TO NOTE WAS ALICE IN CHAINS WAS SUPPOSED TO BE THE WARM UP ACT ON ALL THE TOUR STOPS, BUT DUE TO LAYNE STALEY’S DRUG ADDICTION, THEY WERE FORCED OFF THE BILL. THE OFFSPRING WAS REPORTEDLY OFFERED TO REPLACE ALICE IN CHAINS ON THE TOUR, BUT THEY TURNED DOWN THE OFFER, WANTING TO CONTINUE PLAYING IN CLUBS.
CANDLEBOX WAS EVENTUALLY CHOSEN AS THE REPLACEMENT FOR ALICE IN CHAINS.
