One Off Show for Big 4 in the U.S.

One Off Show for Big 4 in the U.S.

Big 4
Metallica has announced the details of the U.S. leg of the "Big Four" tour, which unites Eighties thrash metal legends Metallica, Slayer, Megadeth and Anthrax on stage for the first time. Disappointingly, however, there will only be a single North American gig for now, on Saturday, April 23rd at the Empire Polo Grounds in Indio, California -- the same location where the Coachella Festival takes place every year.
Metallica said in a statement, "You've probably heard us all say it . . . the vibe was just so incredible at last year's 'Big Four' shows that we can't stop now!! So we're finally bringing the love to our home turf . . . this is indeed the only scheduled stop in America this go around, so we're hoping that you can head West to join us."
Tickets go on sale this Friday (January 28th) at 10:00 a.m. PT. Metallica fan club members are encouraged to check out MetClub.com for pre-sale and VIP package info.
The "Big Four" tour first played selected dates in Eastern Europe last summer to an fantastic response, which led to the scheduling of shows this year in the U.S. and the U.K. There's no word yet on whether more "Big Four" events are in the works.
