Metallica Announce M72 World Tour 'Takeover' Events
Metallica have announced a number of “Takeover” events in connection with their M72 World Tour.
The North American leg of the M72 tour will kick-off in East Rutherford, New Jersey, on August 4.
On each Saturday between the two “No Repeat” weekend shows, there will be various “Takeover” events, including film fests, pop-up stores, Ross Halfin book signings, and AWMH-sponsored opportunities to give back. The events will be accompanied by live music.
The lineup making its way through North America with Metallica includes OTTTO and Bastardane, along with tribute bands Damage Inc., Motorbreath, and Sandman.
“A few more acts will join the fun in individual cities,” according to the metal legends.
