The initial lineup was the band Bitch, Cirith Umgoo [!] and Pandemonium. However, soon after, before the show has started, Metallica replaced Cirith Ungol, and Hans Naughty replaced Pandemonium.
On this date in 1982: A showcase by a new independent Metal label called @metalbladerecords was booked at The Stone in San Francisco. “Cirith Umgoo” (the club misspelled @cirithungolband) cancelled the week before and another Los Angeles band called @metallica replaced them and made their first visit to San Francisco. The rest is history. Photo by Brian Lew from the pages of Murder In The Front Row.
