Crew member? They say in the statement a member of the Metallica family, if it was James or something I think they'd say so, plus they haven't cancelled the shows for the next week or so so maybe they need to find a replacement and it was too short notice for this show? Sucks big time, I'd be biting my nails down to the bone right now if I had tickets for Friday.
I think this is most likely scenario...not a band member but someone they rely on and now need time to source a suitable replacement.
And this folks (more people on Metforums) is why somewhere like Australia is too risky to include in tour destinations for now.

So I just watched some of the recent tour videos on YouTube and wow, the band is on fire these days. James sounds great. Lars is playing better than he has in a while. This is awesome.

Really wish they would change up the setlist more between nights like in the World Magnetic days. It's like they're rotating the same 20 songs.

They started to, then just reverted back after a couple of shows. They did the same thing back in 2016, brought out Cyanide, Unforgiven 3 etc... played them for a couple of shows then went back to Roam, Bells, Fuel, etc...

Yeah it always feels like theyβre about to start shaking things up, then just revert back to normalcy. It makes it cooler when they do pop a rarity up but worse for all of us watching the sets from home. I really love this set format though.

It kinda helps not following anything they do anymore. Before I knew exactly what song they were about to perform, from the guitars, placements, interactions and so forth. This time I had no idea what songs would come, other than Whiplash in the beginning.

It's just harder for bands like Metallica that I'm at 'superfan' level for.

Also hard when they only tour your country once every ten years

Should Hetfield shave off the mustache?
I think so.

The mustache makes him look older. Maybe, but it gives him even more character. You can't have a Hetfield without it! Lol.

He needs to either grow it or shave it⦠this super short stubble mo looks weird and like a teenagers dirty fluffy upper lip
Not as bad as when he dyed his hair that super bright yellow a couple of years ago though

I liked the Lulu era look with the Mohawk. He looked old but young and cool at the same time.
