METALLICA To Play Beijing For First Time Ever In January 2017

According to an update from Metallica, the band is due to play Beijing, China for the first time ever on January 18th, 2017:

"It’s officially Hardwired... week and we’re kicking off an extremely exciting, crazy week with the announcement that we will be returning to China and for the first time ever playing in Bejing! As you may know, we’re going to get the new year started right with a trip to Asia and we’re beyond excited to add Bejing to the WorldWired Tour schedule on January 18, 2017 at the Le Sports Center.

Tickets will be available on November 17th starting at 2:00 PM through the ticketing hotline 400-610-3721 and online via Damai.cn.

Those of you who are astute watchers of the schedule will notice there are still few dates open, between opening night in Seoul and the Singapore show. Keep watching..."

Metallica's "Atlas, Rise!" debuts at No. 22 on Billboard's Mainstream Rock Songs airplay chart dated November 19th, giving the legendary metal act three songs on the chart simultaneously. It's the first time an act has tripled up since… Metallica did it eight years ago, reports Kevin Rutherford.

"Atlas" joins previously released tracks "Moth Into Flame" (No. 6) and "Hardwired" (No. 23) on the chart, marking the first time that an act has charted at least three songs on Mainstream Rock Songs simultaneously since Metallica on the September 27th, 2008-dated ranking. That week, "The Day That Never Comes" was amid its seven-week run at No. 1 and was joined by "Cyanide" (No. 35) and "My Apocalypse" (No. 40).
