New shit in my collection #2


Over the past few days, the postman brought two nice package with some new tickets. As usual one from TMCC member and one from eBay. Tickets are from the years 1989-2004 and represent not only different Metallica lineup but show how the tickets design has changed over the years.

The first ticket of 1989 represents one of my favorite periods of the band. Mammoth Damaged Justice tour from the years 1988-1989 is probably vocally and visually in my opinion, the best live band period. Although tickets for this period are not especially interesting somehow always enjoy my interest. In 1989, Metallica played 156 shows up and it means that someone who wants to complete all the tickets of the year will have to perform the mammoth job.
nice addition from Damaged Justice Tour

Another ticket came from 1993 American leg of the Black Album Tour. Actually, it was the decline of the tour on American soil, where the peak was in 1991-92. If anyone would like to complete all Metallica tickets from one year and we are not talking about the early years of the 1982-1985, probably year 1993 will be the most difficult to complete. Why?. In 1993, Metallica ended Black Album promotion and toured with monster show literally all over the world. So, We have a U.S. leg, then concerts in Mexico, which hit later on Live Shit Binge & Purge and then it's total madness: Hawaii, Japan, Australia, Indonesia and around, South America and all of Europe at the end with the final concert in Werchter, Belgium. Together the five continents from January to July. Ufffffff….

end of the Black Album Tour on American ground
The third ticket is a typical "Fuckinticketmaster" from North American Load tour in 1997. It was one of two concerts that took place at the U.S. Air Arena in Landover. From today's four this ticket is probably the least interesting for me and saves him just that this is the full ticket.

The last of the new acquisitions is a ticket from 2004 from the Canadian part of the Madly In Anger With The World Tour. Tickets from this tour, provided that they have been releases from Metclub are one of my favorites. Very nice design, which we have seen in the booklet of St. Anger album here has been reproduced in shades of red. Additionally, Metallica logo as a hologram does looks very good. From this period, mean years 2003-04, I suggest looking for tickets from Metclub - classic tickets from Ticketmaster, unfortunately, are a nightmare.
I'm madly in anger with You....

Next blog entry will be a jubilee. I wonder, do you know why?
