This
summer Metallica's WorldWired tour hits stadiums across North America.
The band has invited along special guests Avenged Sevenfold and openers
Volbeat or Gojira to join them through out the summer. However, as some
fans have noticed, there are a handful of cities (five to be exact!)
where only one band from the bill is able to join. Since Metallica have
had so much fun checking out local bands that fans voted for to open the
shows in other parts of the world (Central/South America, Copenhagen
and Mexico City), it only seems natural to invite fans to once again
voice their opinion and help choose a band. This time around, the group
receiving the most fan votes will hit the stage first on their own
five-city tour!
The "mini" tour includes these five dates:
May 19 - Foxborough, MA - Gillette Stadium (also with Volbeat)
