Whoever came up with that must have been watching Floyd
I was at that Nirvana gig but they were not band of the day.
AC/DC were headlining. It's their stage.

He did something a bit different every night and I cannot find footage of the night I went.
Basically there was a column of dry ice smoke down from the ceiling. He had clearly climbed up through a trap door to stand in it.
The only lights that were on were UV. As the smoke rolled away he was wearing a white suit... and he was glowing in the remains of the smoke. He had his arms out in mix of crucifixion and Gozer. It was an amazing image.
The someone from the floor threw him a telecaster and slid a little pedalboard on the stage and he kicked into a brand new song at the time "Guitar".
It was a proper "I am the best and you damn well know it" moment. And for that night at least, he was right.

The first time I saw Metallica was Donington 1991 (again, as @fretmeister says, supporting AC/DC), but we were well back from the stage and could only really see the famed bottle fight.
The first time I saw them properly was Milton Keynes 1993 with Diamond Head, The Almighty and Megadeth. TBH, I still wasn't a massive Metallica fan - I think I'd only heard the Black Album - but I liked The Almighty (great band) and a bit of Megadeth, so I tagged along.
One of our party took us down towards the front for Metallica. When they played the opening riff to Creeping Death, I just remember being picked up and dragged forwards. @onlyonebradders and I gave each other a look which said 'fuck this', and worked our way back to just behind the main crush.
They absolutely blew me away that day. My first day off after that, I was in HMV buying their entire back catalogue.
Enjoy:
(Oh, and Radio 1 broadcast it live. I got my Grandma to tape it. I'm sure she appreciated James's opening line...)
As for "when am I ready?" You'll never be ready. It works in reverse, you become ready by doing it. - pmbomb

I wanna see a sea of hands out there
Let me see a sea of hands
I want everybody to kick up some noise
I wanna hear some revolution out there, brothers
I wanna hear a little revolution
Brothers and sisters
The time has come for each and every one of you to decide
Whether you are gonna be the problem
Or whether you are gonna be the solution (that's right)
You must choose, brothers, you must choose
It takes five seconds, five seconds of decision
Five seconds to realize your purpose here on the planet
It takes five seconds to realize that it's time to move
It's time to get down with it
Brothers, it's time to testify and I want to know
Are you ready to testify?!
Are you ready?!
I give you a testimonial
The MC5!
if I remember correctly the Sign O the times tour got cancelled in the U.K. so I missed that one but on the Lovesexey tour he drove on stage in a white thunderbird and went straight into Erotic City - show stopper right there
