Metallica Returning To School [ 9/4/2007 ]
Metallica will play the 21st annual Bridge School benefit next month.
Does
two acoustic gigs in our hometown mean that we're sick of the studio
again? Nah . . . not really . . . but we are honored that we have been
invited to appear at the annual Bridge School Benefit concerts. Held on
October 27 and 28, 2007 at Shoreline Ampitheatre in Mountain View, CA,
this will be our second time participating in the all acoustic shows,
and the 21st year that the benefit has been held in the Bay Area.
As usual, the line-up is stellar and we're looking forward to
seeing Tom Waits, Eddie Vedder (with Flea & Jack Irons), John
Mayer, of course Neil Young, and others perform those days. Tickets are
on sale this Sunday, September 9, 2007 at 10:00 AM and for more
details, please see the official press release below.
Started by Neil and Peggy Young, the Bridge School is a
non-profit organization assisting individuals with severe speech and
physical impairments achieve full participation in their communities
and is an internationally recognized leader in the education of
children who use augmentative and alternative communication. The annual
benefit concerts provide the majority of the funding for the school's
operation. For more information, check out http://www.bridgeschool.org/
There will be a special ticket pre-sale for Fan Club members
only on Saturday, September 8 at 10:00 AM PST. The Club has held a very
limited number of tickets that will be available in the 200 section of
Shoreline Ampitheatre (map here).
Limit two tickets per member. The Bridge School organizers hold the 100
section seats, and if you are interested in lawn tickets, please go to
the general public on-sale on Sunday, September 9 at 10:00 AM PST.
PLEASE READ CAREFULLY: In order to purchase Met Club pre-sale
tickets through Ticketmaster you will need a password. That password
will be posted on the Met Club tour page just before the
pre-sale begins, so you will need to obtain it there first. We'll give
you a link directly to the pre-sale in the tickets section of the
MetClub tour page, where you will enter the password and proceed with
your purchase.
We're looking forward to seeing some of you Clubbers out at Shoreline in October!
P.S. - There is no meet and greet scheduled at this time.
