Disposable Heroes - Live Performance

Live Performance

The song premiered live on 9/14/1985 in St. Goarshausen, Germany, before the actual release of the album. Present day, it is still played occasionally, though not as often as the band's best-known songs. It is believed that the song was played live with Cliff Burton only two times: 09/14/85 and 12/31/85. The song was played acoustically two times for the Bridge School Benefit at the Shoreline Amphitheatre, the lyrics are the same, but the structure was changed (October 27 and 28, 2007). The song features on live album Orgullo, Pasión y Gloria: Tres Noches en la Ciudad de México, recorded in June 2009.

Famous quotes containing the words live and/or performance:

    “Is money money or isn’t money money. Everybody who earns
    it and spends it every day in order to live knows
    that money is money, anybody who votes it to be
    gathered in as taxes knows money is not money. That
    is what makes everybody go crazy.... When you earn
    money and spend money every day anybody can know the
    difference between a million and three. But when you
    vote money away there really is not any difference
    between a million and three.”
    —Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)

    “Having an identity at work separate from an identity at home means that the work role can help absorb some of the emotional shock of domestic distress. Even a mediocre performance at the office can help a person repair self-esteem damaged in domestic battles.”
    —Faye J. Crosby (20th century)
