We are looking forward to heading back out on the road here on our home turf in North America and now that the pre-sales are over for Met Club and Mission Metallica members, we thought you might be interested in our little novel below describing just how to go about getting a ticket to the show.
First off, if you want to see where we'll be playing, click here . . . and if your city doesn't appear here...stay tuned, we will get to you eventually!
To start our somewhat confusing tale, the one simple fact here is that tickets for the North American Tour Dates go on sale September 13. All the usual methods apply - ticketmaster.com, phone orders, outlets, or your local arena.
However, and here's where it gets a little nutty, if you would like more than just a ticket, you may be interested in checking out the presale package we have put together.
The Death Magnetic Experience includes:
There is a four (4) tickets/package limit on all presales and a four (4) ticket limit on the public onsale.
The timeline for the pre-sales that include the ticket/album/download package are as follows:
September 3 - Local Radio Presale
Check your local radio station's website today for a link and a password to the presale. The Presale Package will be available until 11:59pm local time on September 4. You must start at the station's website in order to buy the Presale Package.
September 8 and 9 - American Express Presale
Head over to ticketmaster.com and order the ticket package using your American Express card starting at 10:00am local time. You have until 10:00pm local time on each day to take part in the AMEX Presale.
September 10 - General Public Presale
This is your last go around for the Death Magnetic Experience... your last chance to grab hold of the great seats, the new album, and the free live download of your show. You have from 10:00am local time on September 10 until 11:59pm local time on September 12 to purchase the presale package through ticketmaster.com. No fancy password required.
To Our Canadian Friends
Unfortunately, we are not offering the presale packages in Canada. Tickets to the Vancouver, Calgary, and Edmonton shows will go on sale on September 13.
One Final Word About the CD:
As you probably noticed, for each ticket you buy, you get a copy of the album. If you purchase 4 tickets, you get 4 copies of the CD. Don't need 4 copies? Give one to your friends, your mom, or a random dude on the street... just spread the new album to as many ears as possible.
See you on the road!
