    I will say given by how many non-pj shows I've been too last year and this year, they're sub $100 ticket prices seem insanely cheap compared to what their peers are charging. Metallica, U2 (except for floor seats), Elton John, Guns N' Roses... they're all pushing or exceeding $200 these days.... I thought it was bad a few years back when ticket prices were pushing $100 :(

    I have never seen Metallica before and have been wanting to see them for a long time. I don't think they've played NC since 2004 and I had to miss that show. I did the cheapest VIP GA for Atlanta which came to $260. Regular fan club GA was $210 after fees. Figured it was worth the $50 more for the poster, merch item and separate entrance. Can't wait to check out the new stadium as well

    2004 was at the old Charlotte Coliseum. They played Time Warner Cable Arena on October 18, 2009 (My older brothers first Metallica show). In 2000 they played at Rockingham Speedway with Korn.

    Enjoy your first Metallica show. :rock_on:

    Last saw them when they did the Big 4 at Yankee Stadium but before that it had to be in the late 90's. I'm looking forward to the show, got GA at MetLife.

    I do not...But you can try and contact ticket Master about switching if they still have seats. May need to wait til the general on sale though. Ticketmaster has an exchange policy. I was able to upgrade my gnr seats for pit last year in Philly. Foxborough might not participate in it but it's worth a shot. Good luck!

    They were bought off the Fan Club sale, means ticketbastard has nothing to do with them. They would need to contact TicketsToday, and see if they'll switch them out, if any are still available. CUSTOMERSERVICE@TICKETSTODAY.COM 1-800-594-8499

    Saw them in 06 and 09 but not interested in a stadium show so not going this time. They put on a hell of a show so if you haven't seen them I highly recommend going. Hoping they play some arena shows later in the year.

    well that was probably the most i have spent on a ticket (not including festivals). Got GA/pit for philly though so i'm content. Took awhile was in the "waiting room" for about 5 minutes then tr4ied clicking on tickets and they said there were none available. Just kept on tryign and eventually got through after about 10 minutes or so.

    Scored a pair in fan club pre-sale for Soldier Field. $175 face is easily the most I have paid for a non-festival concert.

    Excited to see them for the first time. I'm still kicking myself for skipping Lollapalooza two years ago when they were here.

  • My buddies and I bought $55 buckers.

    We just want to be in there. I've seen them three times already. I didn't want to miss them, but I didn't want to spend a shit load of cash to see them again in such a massive venue either.

  • You can pre-order the audio recording (bootleg) for the upcoming shows. That is pretty cool
