Metallica have confirmed that they’re bringing their Escape From The Studio 2006 tour to Dublin’s RDS.
Tickets for the gig on June 11 go on sale at 9am on Thursday February 16 making them an ideal “Sorry, I forgot!” gift for anybody who overlooked Valentine’s Day two days earlier.
“We had planned for ’06 a year dedicated to nothing but writing and recording,” reads an official band communiqué. “Oh well, how the best laid plans can change!”
The official Metallica mailing-list suggests that the bash is a sister event to the UK’s Download festival, which is taking place at Donnington Park from June 9 to 11 and also features The Prodigy, Trivium and Bullet For My Valentine among its heavy hitters.
Needless to say, hotpress.com will have details of who’s supporting the Bay Area thrashers in Dublin ASAP.
