i think i might have a wee bit of that gig on tape somewhere

If you do and can digitise it i would be most appreciative​. I put a good chunk of the '96 show on YouTube off of an old bootleg tape i had.

Great stage in fairness,my first Metallica show. I've never come across a bootleg of it though, would love to listen back to it now.

The worldwired stage looks the same size as that and that stage fitted into the old point, so why can't the worldwired stage work in the 3arena ???

Prob MCD didn't offer enough $$$$$

I may have a copy on tape - RecordCollector on Wicklow St. in Dublin used to sell bootlegs of it way, way, wayyyyyyy back in the day. Of course you'll have to wait until I'm next back home in Ireland to have a rummage for it.

Was it Freebird next to the Bus Stop newsagents on Eden Quay? I used to buy them from Record Collector myself or the guy on O'Connell Bridge who had them in a big suitcase.

Got my bootlegs on O'Connell bridge,used to be a place down a steep stairs on Wicklow street and also upstairs next to Borderline in temple bar.

That's on Nassau st., there was another place called Record Collector on Wicklow st. nearly opposite where Tower Records is that had a lot of rare stuff and bootlegs.

Yup the arena is uses Eventim as a ticket seller so they'll likely have a bigger allocation than TM.

Degag

No tickets available. :mad:

All tickets gone everywhere. What the ****

Probably bought up by the re-sellers, same búllshít that goes on over here.

Every gig like. Seating and standing.

psychozeb

Got standing for Sunday in London on Ax's,had two seated and buddie asked for them for him and his son.

hidinginthebush

Genuinely surprised it sold out everywhere. The last time they played here I tickets were ten a penny, and that was with Alice in Chains supporting!

feylya

Somehow managed to get two standing for London. Had to select split seats though... **** it, I'm going though

psychozeb

£12.75 in fees on axs that was ridiculous was £9 on Ticketmaster.

Wrongway1985

Eventim for Manchester and AXS for London are official selling partners, TM are saving their allocation majority for seatwave

psychozeb

Still single seats on Ticketmaster for Sunday gig.

wolfyboy555

Managed to get standing through livenation for birmingham

lord lucan

Ended up getting a standing ticket for Glasgow,skipped the presale as i wasn't really too fussed on seeing them again at those prices.

Tbh the prices for an indoor show are ridiculous now. I went to 8 shows across the US, UK,Ireland and Europe on the World Magnetic Tour and they were nowhere near that expensive. I'll do one date on this tour as i really don't fancy waiting for a potential outdoor gig here, getting too old and annoyed by outdoor gigs these days.

D.Q

Managed to get two tickets standing for London on the Sunday. Through AXS. Ticketmaster are a disgrace.

psychozeb

Just wondering for standing tickets did people just go best available? While in the waiting room it was showing standing sold out so I just went with best available. Didn't realise I managed to get standing till I received the e-mail confirmation.

Would be some gimmick to have Metallica on a standard stage... Lars in the middle on a small riser.... Rob on the left... Kirk on the right James hetfield in the middle....

I went with standing and the best tier of seating, with split seats. Got two standing in the end.
