Today will be about Metallica concerts in the
Czech Republic. To date, Metallica has played eight concerts in this country. A
few days ago after many years of searching I managed to get ticket from the
band’s first concert in the Czech Republic, so now I have the whole set and it
became possible to write this text.
The first concert in the Czech Republic took
place in Brno in 1993 during the Nowehere Else to Roam Tour and as a support
before Metallica played The Cult and Suicidal Tendencies instead of Alice in
Chains (who was on the bill). It was also Metallica's only concert in this
city. As a curiosity I will add that together with the ticket to the concert I
managed to get a bus ticket on the route Liberec-Brno-Liberec with cool
graphics. Can You imagine something like this nowadays …. the wonderful 90’s.
Concert and bus tickets
For the next concert of The Four Horsemen, the
Czechs had to wait three years until Metallica visit Europe indoor arenas
promoting Load album. In September 1996 the concert was held in Prague at
Sportovni Hall (Sports Hall). Sadly, poster You see below the tickets is not mine (photo
stolen from Carol from Metallica Rulez).
After another three years during Garage Inc.
Tour Metallica again visited Prague at Atleticky Stadion Slavia Praha. Below
You can see a nice big ticket, along a little flyer from this concert.
In 2004, during another European tour promoting
St. Anger album Metallica performed in Prague T-mobile Park. Below ticket, is photo
of a big poster from the Prague concert from my collection.
In 2008 Metallica again visit the Atleticky
Stadion Slavia Praha and performed with Machine Head and Gojira. Along with the
ticket photo of the info flyer.
The BIG4 Tour that took place in 2010 did not
miss the Czech Republic. Metallica, Slayer, Megadeth and Anthrax performed at
the Milovice airport near Prague. Below ticket and flyer from this concert.
Another visit also in Prague took place two
years later in 2012 when the band celebrating the 20th anniversary of the
release of the Black Album. Along with the ticket You can see photo of the
flyer from the concert.
The last concert in the Czech Republic to date
was a concert on the By Request Tour, where one of the supports was mighty
Kvelertak, one of my favorite bands. Poster glued to the pole on the street of
the Prague (no chance to bring it with me ….argghhhhh).
