Metallica / Avenged Sevenfold / Volbeat / Gojira Tour • Page 2

Anyone know the venue for Dallas?

 

Me too. I have never seen either band live. I don't mind Volbeat not playing Chicago.

 

AT&T Stadium

 

Just saw that it's at AT&T. I'm torn now. I swore I'd never go there for a concert but I've been a Metallica stan for 20+years.

 

a7x fucking kills it live ive seen them like 6 times live

 

I'm so happy they decided to have it at Jean-Drapeau when it was rumoured to be at the Olympic Stadium (which is a piece of shit).

Man, I'm super bummed now.

I can't justify paying $200 for a ticket to see them at a GIANT stadium with terrible sound. Plus parking is a nightmare and will be at minimum $50, no hyperbole.

 

Do they plan on a lot of these dates selling out? There are plenty of off dates.

 

I doubt it. I'm not sure of the size of these other venues, but there's no way they'll sell out AT&T stadium. It holds like 100k.

 

im pretty sure the enitre tour will sell out. its fucking metallica and they havent done a proper us tour in 7 years

 

According to Alt Press, Gojira is on the last six dates along with Avenged Sevenfold.

 

Let's goooo.

Last time they played the Festival D'Ete de Quebec (in 2008) they hit well over 100k and had to start turning people away from what was technically an open venue. On their Death Magnetic tour they played the Bell Center (the biggest arena in the NHL) two nights in a row, both sold out.

I'm not risking it and buying my ticket early.

 

I'll pass. I hate stadium tours.

 

united center in chicago holds more people the the bell center. the united center has been the leader in attendance per game per seasons since like 2009 when their massive sell out streak started. now where metallica is playing solider field that holds 65k but idk what for concerts it all depends on the stage set up and how much of the stadium they use

 

You're 100% right, I should have specified seated capacity.

 

The off dates are likely a combination of them being old and not wanting to bang out shows in a row, the necessity to move a massive stage, and probably some added shows if and when others sell out. But they won't add many more, I don't think.

 

I dunno guys. On the Death Magnetic tour, the venue they played here was a 20k cap and almost sold out, but there were still seats in the upper balcony available. Not sure how they're gonna sell out 100k venues now. Maybe in some markets...

 

I'll go to the Chicago date if I can score some cheap seats on Stubhub or Craigslist.

 

I think I've heard in interviews that they had intended to structure it this way to maximize visits home with family

 

pretty unexcited to spend like $200, but I haven't seen Metallica in about 15 years. I need to get field tickets for this one

 

Lol your outta your god damn mind if you think your going to find cheap tixs on stub hub for this. Why not just get tixs when they go on sale on Friday
