"Just like the two completely unique setlists you have to look forward to in Edmonton, there will also be two completely unique posters—one for each show—designed by artist Kathleen Goff. (This is in addition to the Pop-Up Shop exclusive poster!)

"Like our last North American run, we won’t be receiving poster inventory throughout this tour, which means they won’t be available for sale online. So if you’ve got your eye on a poster, you better pick it up at the gig!

"If there are any leftovers when this leg is all said and done, we’ll collect them and offer a very small amount of bundles online."

Find Blackened in Venue:

"If you’re 21+, look out for signature Blackened cocktails at select bars and concession stands throughout Commonwealth Stadium so that you can enjoy Metallica's award-winning whiskey at the show!"

Photos & Videos from the Show"

"As always, photos shot by our #MetOnTour reporters will be posted on Metallica.com the day after the show, and videos will begin appearing on our YouTube channel after we receive the fancy professional audio mix back from our merry band of audio engineers."
