During the second night of their intimate 30th Anniversary shows at the Filmore in San Francisco (December 7), Metallica performed yet another song that was recorded during the Death Magnetic sessions but never released. And just like with “Hate Train,” the song performed during the first night, a rough mix version of the song called “Just A Bullet Away” was emailed to members of Metallica’s fan club following the show. And now you can listen to “Just A Bullet Away” in the video above.

Anyone thinking, though, that performing these unreleased songs was Metallica’s way of trying to make fans forget about Lulu can guess again, because one of the many surprise guests during last night’s show was none other than Lou Reed. Luckily, though, the short set of songs from Lulu wasn’t the only surprise for fans in attendance last night. Also joining the band on stage were members of Mercyful Fate (including King Diamond), Kid Rock, Ray Haller of Sweet Savage, Anthrax’s Scott Ian, Marianne Faithful and John Bush of Armored Saint (who were one of the openers that evening). And like the first show, former bassist Jason Newsted joined the band for a few songs as well, while another lucky fan got to perform with Metallica on Budgie’s “Breafan.”
