This year's first Metallica concerts are now behind
us and the first tickets from
2013 are in my collection. Metallica
began five concerts
in Australia, which took place in February and March on
Soundwave Festival. Getting the stubs was
not easy, helped me a friend who was
at all five concerts, and one Australian fan and
collector, who trade two Soundwave
tickets for guitar picks. I still miss one of the
tickets – from the Melbourne show. If anyone has
a spare ticket from this show,
please let me know.
Four of Five
For next concerts the four horsemens went to the Middle East and Africa. The April concert
in Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates was the second Metallica concert in this country. Another ticket
in my collection from this year come from this
show. I failed so far to get tickets from the
concerts in South Africa .... but I'm working on
it.
Sheiks, camels and Metallica
The last of this year (so far) ticket and perhaps
the most unexpected for me,
comes from a short gig that band gave during Revolver Golden
Gods Awards 2013
ceremony at Club Nokia in Los Angeles. The
band played a short set containing songs -
Disposable Heroes,
For Whom The Bell Tolls, Rapid
Fire (Judas Priest cover)
ft. Rob Halford
and Seek & Destroy. Ticket
is very difficult to find because it was not a huge venue
- sold only
about 2,300 tickets. In less than a month Orion
Music + More Festival
in 2013 .... more tickets to come
? ;)
