Metallica threw their own music festival on Bader Field in Atlantic City in late June. Orion Music + More combined a surprisingly diverse musical lineup with film, pro skateboarding, spray paint art, horror collectibles, tricked out cars and more – basically, the various passions of Metallica’s members laid bare for their fans and curious spectators to rummage around in. Joe Russo waded into the first day of this two-day gathering to bring us this great set. Like the best live music photography, Russo makes us want to crowd surf his shots, wishing we could somehow join the raucous fun we see in his work.
