New shit in my collection #10

This is the last topic in my blog this year. Traditionally begin with the oldest of the new tickets in my collection. This time it's about really old ticket because of a concert which took place on August 22, 1983 in Tyler on tour Kill Em All For One. I must admit that at first I had concerns about the authenticity of this ticket, it surprised me even perfect condition. My fears dispelled my friend and Metallica ticket collector stating that I have no reason to worry.

Kill Em All For One

Next ticket comes from Damage Inc. Tour during which Metallica supported Ozzy Osbourne. You can see that the ticket was printing ink with glitter - I have a few similar Metallica tickets, most of the second half of the 80's.

Unused ticket from July 22, 1989 from Meadowlands Arena in East Rutherford during the Damaged Justice Tour.

I was looking for that ticket for a long time. It is a ticket to the third consecutive concert in Rosemont Horizon in Chicago where Metallica played three nights in a row during the tour Wherever We Roam 91-92 May.

Ticket from Summer Shit Tour 94. This is not really a new ticket in my collection. This one is just a whole and in better shape than previously held.

The last two tickets are from a ticket presale for Metclub members (those are Metclub tickets) and comes from two concerts at The Forum in Los Angeles during American leg of the World Magnetic Tour.

Coffin twin

At the end I wish You all a happy New Year 2015 and only rare tickets, posters, flyers, records etc. in Your collections.

New shit in my collection #3

Lots of new tickets so, time for some new shit in my collection.

Orion 3D pass & wristband

I really wanted to have in my collection this 3D pass from the Orion Music + More 2012 festival. Pass looks really cool and believe me the photo does not show of how cool a piece of Metallica history it is. In addition to the ticket is Metclub Ultra wristband. If someone had to sell / trade hard ticket from this edition of Orion, please contact me.

Rock me Amadeus

Another ticket is a ticket from the concert, which took place in Vienna, Sep. 6, 1996. It was the first show of the European part of the Poor Touring Me Tour. During the concert band played for the first time Bleeding Me (one of my favourite songs ever) and Wasting My Hate. For the last seven years I saw this ticket for sale just once.

Better this than nothing

Ticket from Riverbend Music Center in Cincinnati from huge Black Album Tour. As a rule, I trying not to buy tickets in poor condition (like this) but this one was from trade with another collector, and I did not have it in my collection ….so, better this than nothing.

Anger from Canada

Cool Metclub ticket from Toronto (Canada) from Madly In Anger With The World Tour. I don’t know why, but when it comes to tickets from North America always more gladden me these from Canada than these from US. Well, also they are harder to find than the American.

From "Greatest Hits" set

The last of today's entry is ticket from a concert in Sofia (Bulgaria). The band was just before the release of the Death Magnetic album and played short European Tour with  "greatest hits" set of the first five albums. During these concerts, to my disappointment Metallica did not perform any songs from Load, Reload and St. Anger albums. Shame

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.

"Fuckinticketmaster"

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?
