Metallica's M72 World Tour rolled into Atlanta on Tuesday for a one-off concert at Mercedes-Benz Stadium. Guitarist Kirk Hammett and bassist Rob Trujillo showed Georgia love as part of their “Kirk And Rob Doodle” segment.

The “Doodle” gives Hammett and Trujillo a chance to jam in the middle of each M72 Tour concert. The pair often fit excerpts of covers into the free-form sequence. Recent segments have included tributes to Rush in Toronto, Fugazi near Washington D.C. and a pair of songs associated with Philadelpia in the City of Brotherly Love.

Last night, Kirk Hammett and Rob Trujillo began the “Doodle” with a taste of “No Remorse” from Metallica’s 1983 debut studio album, Kill ‘Em All. Trujillo cut off the jam after a few minutes and addressed the crowd: “No, no, no. We’ve got to do something for Georgia! Hang on a second.”

Hammett then broke out a slide and fired up “One Way Out” accompanied by Trujillo. The blues song penned by Sonny Boy Williamson II and Elmore James was a staple of The Allman Brothers' live repertoire throughout the legendary Georgia-based band’s 45-year career.
