Pantera Performs "Walk" with Seahawks Drumline During Seattle Concert: Watch
Pantera, a legendary metal band, treated fans to a special performance during their set supporting Metallica at Lumen Field in Seattle on Friday, August 30th. The band was joined on stage by the Seahawks Blue Thunder drumline for a rendition of their classic hit "Walk".
Unforgettable Collaboration
As Pantera began playing "Walk", the crowd was unaware of the surprise that was about to unfold. After the second chorus, the Seahawks drumline took the stage, receiving a thunderous cheer from the audience. Pantera drummer Charlie Benante stayed locked into the song’s deliberate and precise rhythm, as the drumline fell in around him.
The collaboration seemed to be a loose rendition, potentially unrehearsed, with the drumline members and Benante freely improvising along with the song. Despite not being exactly on time, the performance added to the charm, as everyone involved seemed to be enjoying themselves.
Benante’s Previous Appearance
This performance with the Seahawks drumline reprises Benante’s previous appearance alongside the Blue Thunder drumline in January 2023. At the time, Benante was a guest of the Seahawks at Lumen Field, appearing during their game against the Los Angeles Rams to play "Walk" and Anthrax’s "Indians" with the Blue Thunder. After the performance, Benante praised the drumline, calling them "a great drum line" and stating that he even "learned a trick or 2".
