Metallica at Download. Picture: Mike Burnell Metallica have confirmed a show at Wembley Arena this summer as part of their 'Sick of the Studio 07' Summer Tour, Sound Generator can reveal. Set for Sunday 8th July, 2007, the tour is intended simply to give the band a break from studio sessions during the summer months as they work on a new album for release in 2008.
"Sometimes we get a little tired of staring at the same four walls of the recording studio, as well as the same faces that inhabit the studio day in and day out, and we need to get out and just PLAY!" said Metallica's Lars Ulrich. "This tour gives us a chance to stretch out a bit and jam in front of real fans.
Like just about any aspiring rock musician, we always dreamed of someday headlining the marquee venues around the world, such as Madison Square Garden, Candlestick Park (in our hometown of SF), Budokan, the LA Coliseum...
and of course, Wembley Stadium," he adds. "Any band who denies wanting to be up on that stage in front of that many fans is just bulls*%#*ing you." Tickets on sale now, priced at £40.
