Live Shit: Binge & Purge
Template:Use mdy dates Script error: No such module "Unsubst-infobox". Template:Album ratings Live Shit: Binge & Purge is the first live album by the American heavy metal band Metallica, released in a box set format on November 23, 1993. The initial pressings contained three CDs or two cassette tapes, featuring songs from concerts in Mexico City during the Nowhere Else to Roam tour, as well as three VHS tapes, one of them with a concert in Seattle from the Damaged Justice Tour from 1989, and the other two with a concert in San Diego from the Wherever We May Roam Tour from 1992, split in two parts. It was originally packaged as a cardboard box designed to resemble a typical tour equipment transport box. In addition to the audio and video media, the box featured extra bonus material, including a booklet with photos, typical tour correspondence exchanged by the band and their management, internal documents, and handwritten notes; a recreated copy of an access pass to the "Snakepit" section of the tour stage; and a cardboard drawing/airbrush stencil of the "Scary Guy" logo. Live Shit: Binge & Purge has been certified 21× platinum by the RIAA as a long-form video format.
When the set was reissued in a 3-CD / 2-DVD format (with the San Diego concert in one DVD), the box was replaced with a jewel case format. The booklet that was included in the initial set was made available as DVD-ROM content.
