Herring & Herring; Danny ClinchThis Thursday, November 9, Metallica will headline the Band Together Bay Area benefit concert in support of those affected by the recent Northern California wildfires, the deadliest in recorded state history. Now comes word that the show, which also will feature Grateful Dead spinoff group Dead & Company, will be streamed live online.

You’ll be able to watch the show — which takes place at San Francisco’s AT&T Park — beginning at 5:45 p.m. PT on Thursday via Metallica’s YouTube channel and Facebook page, as well as Metallica.com. Viewers will be able to contribute money to the cause during the concert by clicking the “donate” button on the live stream or by texting “TOGETHER” to 20222.

Other artists playing Band Together Bay Area include Dave Matthews & Tim Reynolds, Rancid, G-Eazy and Raphael Saadiq. All proceeds from the show will be donated to the Tipping Point Emergency Relief Fund, which supports low-income and vulnerable communities impacted by the fires.

In other Metallica news, the band has posted a video of a July 1986 performance of “Master of Puppets” from Denmark’s Roskilde Festival on the group’s YouTube channel. The footage will be included in the upcoming Master of Puppets deluxe box set reissue, which arrives November 10.
