Metallica is getting ready to head out on tour with Avenged Sevenfold, Volbeat, and Gojira, which means it's time to dust the cobwebs of some of the classics. Though this pre-tour ritual won't be performed privately, but instead in the public eye via a Facebook Live stream titled Now That We're Live on Tuesday, May 9!
The event will be available on Metallca's site and Facebook, and if you're a part of the Fifth Member Fan Club, you might get invited to the rehearsals in person!
"We’re coming down the home stretch before the North American WorldWired tour starts in Baltimore next week and we are beyond excited to see all of you out there on our first proper tour of this part of the world since 2009. To kick off the celebrations, we’re inviting you to get a sneak peek of what to expect this summer by checking out our rehearsal the night before the first show via the magic of streaming video on Facebook Live. In a little show very cleverly titled "Now That We’re Live" we’ll bring rehearsals on Tuesday, May 9th live to your computer, tablet, mobile device or any other way you reach the internet at 9:00 PM EDT."
Here's hoping Metallica tosses in some obscure tracks or lesser-played songs into the tour! The hits are great alone, but the new songs all deserve a chance live too.
