Three more dates have been added, including festivals in Germany and Austria.
“As you may have picked up already, this year's European trek has a theme,” posts Metallica. “Each night we will be playing 'The Black Album' in its entirety to celebrate the 20th (ish!!!) anniversary of its release in August of 1991. We know, we seem to be big on these anniversary things lately... any excuse to get out and play!”
“We're just getting started here... look for more show announcements next week.”
