At which airfield did Metallica play the September 28, 1991 Monsters of Rock concert in Moscow?

Metallica played the September 28, 1991 Monsters of Rock concert at Tushino Airfield in Moscow.

The performance took place during the touring cycle associated with Metallica and the Monsters of Rock festival. It was described as the first free outdoor Western rock concert in Soviet history, making the event notable beyond Metallica's own career.

Attendance estimates vary considerably. Contemporary and later accounts commonly cite figures between 150,000 and 500,000 people, while some unofficial estimates were much higher. The uncertainty comes from the enormous open-air site and the difficulty of counting a free crowd of that scale.

The Moscow show is sometimes confused with the Wherever We May Roam Tour, which was the first tour directly intended to support the album. Metallica's 1991 Moscow appearance was part of the Monsters of Rock setting, but it became one of the era's defining concerts in its own right.
