Rockin’ in Russia: Heavy metal rockers AC/DC and Metallica headlined a free “Rock Monsters” concert Saturday on an airfield just outside Moscow in what was hailed as a celebration of “the victory of democracy in the U.S.S.R.” Thousands of young Soviet rock fans crowded the airstrip for the daylong concert, which also featured the Soviet heavy metal band E.S.T. The venue was surrounded by militia and cadets to keep order.
