June 27, 2007, 17 years ago
MACHINE HEAD have been added to the METALLICA show on July 8th at Wembley Stadium in London, England. Also scheduled to appear are H.I.M. and MASTODON. Machine Head are replacing BULLET FOR MY VALENTINE as frontman Matt Tuck was due to have a tonsillectomy mid-July, but due to unforeseen complications, the operation had to be moved forward. Matt is recovering well but has been ordered not to sing for a minimum 4 week period, which means that the band have no choice but not to play their previously scheduled shows.
