Attorneys Ethan Bearman and David Bruno join 'Fox News @ Night' for the latest edition of 'Night Court'
Metallica performed their 1986 song "Master of Puppets" during the first day of Lollapalooza and wowed the crowd with a tribute to the popular Netflix show, "Stranger Things." The popular TV show has introduced an entirely new generation to 80s music and the heavy metal band's hit song is back on top of the charts 30 years after its release.
In the show, Eddie Munson, played by Joesph Quinn plays "Master of Puppets," while he and the other "Stranger Things" characters are all in the Upside Down trying to destroy the season's villain, Vecna, during the show's season four finale. The clips of him playing the guitar went viral on social media and brought millions of streams to the 80s song.

While playing at Chicago's Lollapalooza festival for the first time since 2015, the band gave a shutout to the Netflix show. They closed out their set with "Master of Puppets," which was accompanied by the Eddie Munson scene playing behind them and of course, some fireworks. Videos of the moment started circulating all over social media.

On July 10, the "Stranger Writers" Twitter account posted a video captioned "practice makes perfect" of Quinn rocking out on the guitar playing the song. Speaking with Collider, Quinn said that in the actual show, it was a combination of him playing and a guitar double Aidan Fisher, saying that the closer shots of the hands are Fisher's while the wider shots are him.
"It was a combination of both, really. I played the guitar since I was very young, so I was lucky that I had foundation there," he said.
