METALLICA played the second show of its “M72” world tour last Saturday (April 29) 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. Support came from ICE NINE KILLS and NIGHTWISH lead singer FLOOR JANSEN, who boasted a guest appearance by opera singer Henk Poort.

METALLICA launched today’s 16-song set in Amsterdam with “The Call Of Ktulu”, and also performed three new songs from the “72 Seasons” album: the title track, “If Darkness Had A Son” and “You Must Burn!”, the latter of which marked the first time that song had been played live.

METALLICA‘s setlist for the April 29 concert at the Johan Cruijff Arena in Amsterdam, Netherlands was as follows:
01. The Call Of Ktulu
02. Creeping Death
03. Leper Messiah
04. Until It Sleeps(first performance since November 3, 2008)
05. 72 Seasons (first time in front of a live audience)
06. If Darkness Had A Son (first full live performance)
07. Welcome Home (Sanitarium)
08. You Must Burn! (live debut)
09. The Unforgiven
10. Wherever I May Roam
11. Harvester Of Sorrow
12. Moth Into Flame
13. Fight Fire With Fire
14. Whiskey In The Jar
15. One
16. Enter Sandman

METALLICA is visiting a total of 22 different cities around the world and playing 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.
