The South American leg of the By Request Tour 2014

This year's Metallica South American and European Tour was under formula By Request. In short, it was just that the fans choose setlist. Of all the songs Metallica have ever been recorded the fans who bought tickets via the Internet could choose 17 songs played at concert. Eighteenth song was a new song "Lords of Summer" recorded by the band specifically for this tour.

 Unfortunately, what seemed like a beautiful dream, and only a unique opportunity to hear the songs has long since been played by the band turned into a “greatest hits” nightmare. Not that I did not like to listen Seek and Destroy (I like this song very much), but Nothing Else Matters smacked a little boring. The tour was divided into South American and European legs and in my opinion fans in South America have chosen a better setlist than fans in Europe.

As is usually the case in South America I knew would not be easy to get any tickets. All attempts to get tickets through my friends living in Argentina and Brazil failed. Fortunately my friend Piotr along with his wife Kasia and friends went to three concerts in Argentina and Chile. Getting firsts tickets from the tour became a reality. Another big part of the tickets from this leg of the tour fell into my hands suddenly quite late because after Metallica European concerts. As always helped Piotr, who put me in touch with a friend who had somehow come into possession of a number of tickets from South America. Tickets were unused and in mint condition. Thanks MichaƂ and thanks to Piotr and Kasia.

            Below all the tickets from South American part of the By Request Tour that I managed to get through the help of my friends. Unfortunately, the lack of any tickets on ebay, which would increase the chance of completing a full set of tickets from South America. If anyone has tickets from By Request Tour 2014, especially from Colombia, Ecuador, Brasil and Chile and would like to give them away, trade for other Metallica stuff or eventually sell, please contact me.
