METALLICA KICK OFF THIER WORLD TOUR IN AMSTERDAM TO 60K PUNTERS – GET SET LIST HERE!

Posted on by Oran


METALLICA kicked off its “M72” world tour earlier tonight (Thursday, April 27) at the Johan Cruijff Arena in Amsterdam, Netherlands.

The trek sees the band playing two nights in every city it visits — with each “No Repeat Weekend” featuring two completely different setlists and support lineups.

The “M72” tour features a bold new in-the-round stage design that relocates the famed METALLICA Snake Pit to center stage, as well as the “I Disappear” full-tour pass and the debut of discounted tickets for fans under 16 years of age.

METALLICA launched the 16-song set in Amsterdam with “Orion“, marking the first time that song has opened a METALLICA concert since December 2011. The group also performed two new songs from the “72 Seasons” album live for the first time: “Screaming Suicide” and “Sleepwalk My Life Away“.

 METALLICA’s setlist for the April 27th concert at the Johan Cruijff Arena in Amsterdam, Netherlands was as follows:

01. Orion (first time as an opener since December 10, 2011)
02. For Whom The Bell Tolls
03. Holier Than Thou
04. King Nothing
05. Lux Aeterna
06. Screaming Suicide (live debut)
07. Fade To Black
08. Sleepwalk My Life Away (live debut)
09. Nothing Else Matters
10. Sad But True
11. The Day That Never Comes
12. Ride The Lightning
13. Battery
14. Fuel
15. Seek & Destroy
16. Master Of Puppets

METALLICA is visiting a total of 22 different cities around the world and playing for two nights in each city.

Opening acts include FIVE FINGER DEATH PUNCHICE NINE KILLSMAMMOTH WVHPANTERAARCHITECTSGRETA VAN FLEET, and VOLBEAT.

METALLICA promises fans who purchase a two-day ticket that they won’t see the same song twice for a total of over 30 songs spanning the band’s 40-plus-year career.

Each weekend offers a variety of “Enhanced Experiences“, ranging from access to a meet-and-greet, production, and stage tour, food and beverage in the “Black Box” lounge to early entry into the venue and the Snake Pit. The very popular “Black Laminate” is back, now known as the “I Disappear Ticket“, and is the ultimate pass for the fan who wants to run away with METALLICA for multiple weekends.

A single “I Disappear” ticket purchase gives you access to as many of METALLICA’s 46 headlining tour dates across Europe and North America in 2023 and 2024 as you choose. You decide how many shows you’d like to attend around the world, and for how long, and METALLICA will make it as easy as possible.
