Great Britain was the first country in the Europe where Metallica promote
their album Death Magnetic. I'm not
counting, of course, promotional concerts
in September 2008 in Berlin and London. On this part of European Tour Metallica were
supported by The Sword and Machine Head. Just like the previous Madly
In Anger With The World Tour the band toured in the two week system -
two weeks tour and two rest at home. Because
Metallica has arrived to Europe in the late winter, all concerts were at indoor venues.
The first part of the UK Tour consisted of five concerts. The tour began on February 25 in Nottingham and
the band played during this concert for
the first time Judas
Kiss. Next concerts were in
Manchester February 26, Sheffield
February 28, London March 2 where Metallica played
Too Late Too Late for second time ever! and
Newcastle March 3.

concerts held in Birmingham
March 25 with premiere of new song My Apocalypse. March 26 band played in
Glasgow and March 28 in London, where
the setlist contains rarely played The Outlaw Torn (played for tenth time ever!).

If anyone missed any of
the eight concerts of Metallica
during the winter-spring tour in UK had a chance
to see the band at the Sonisphere Festival in Knebworth, which
took place on August 2.
