This annual event, which benefits from the participation of many personalities, aims to raise funds for the group's charitable foundation, All Within My Hands, which supports education, disaster relief and the fight against hunger .
This year, the concert saw the participation of renowned guests, including Sammy Hagar and Michael Anthony (ex-Van Halen), Joe Satriani and Kenny Aronoff (ex-Lynyrd Skynyrd). Classic duo SistaStrings also joined Metallica on stage, providing some memorable moments during the acoustic set.
