As we all know it was Veteran's Day, and what better way to celebrate than with some good ol' Metallica?

The band played at the National Mall in Washington D.C. in front of tons of vets and fans alike. Three songs were played and can all be seen, as well as a great introduction by the one and only Jack Black, right below this text.

HBO and Starbucks came together and put the event in the works, a great, classy move by both companies.

The reason rocks, the band rocks, and all you veterans rock!
