We've been having such an amazing time on the road that there is no way we're stopping now! So in the first of what will be quite a few announcements of 2010 dates, we are super psyched to confirm that we will indeed be visiting South America in the first part of the year. It is extra special because we're actually going to places that Metallica has NEVER played before, including our first show in the new year in Lima, Peru on January 19, 2010 at Estadio San Marcos.

Tickets go on sale on Sunday, November 15 at 11:00 AM local time. Met Club members should check the Members Area for information about their pre-sale.

This is just the beginning . . . in fact, we're pretty sure that if you check back here in a few hours, you'll see a few more shows. Your hint for now . . . more places we have either never played or only been to once.
