METALLICA To Perform On The Late Show With Stephen Colbert Next Monday

Metallica are scheduled to perform on the Monday, May 15th episode of The Late Show With Stephen Colbert on CBS.

Says the band: “We’re psyched to be back on the East Coast kicking off the North American leg of the WorldWired tour and what better way to spend a day off than making a visit to The Late Show With Stephen Colbert? We’ll be hitting the stage at the iconic Ed Sullivan Theater in New York City on Monday, May 15th and we hope you’ll stay up late and tune in!”

The Late Show With Stephen Colbert airs on CBS at 11:35 PM, EDT. Check your local listings.

Metallica’s "Now That We're Live”, a live rehearsal special from M&T Bank Stadium in Baltimore that will stream exclusively on Facebook Live tonight, Tuesday, May 9th, at 9 PM, EST, the eve of their inaugural show for the North American leg of the WorldWired Tour 2017. The band will warm up the stadium stage with a full-scale rehearsal performance.

The rehearsal special will feature Metallica performing four songs in their entirety (including their current single, "Now That We're Dead"). The presentation will offer fans an early glimpse of the groundbreaking production elements of the WorldWired tour and will be available for on-demand viewing following the live stream via Metallica.com and the band's Facebook page.

Said Metallica's Lars Ulrich, "We are psyched to share some of our rehearsals and final pre-production run-through with our friends around the world, and we hope you'll come hang with us as we fire up the engines for the North American Summer run."

Viewers will also be able to donate on Facebook Live to Metallica's All Within My Hands Foundation, which supports a cross-section of national, local and Bay Area charities that the individual band members support, as well as music education programs and local food banks.
