Feliz 2010 \\ METALLICA Bassist Says Touring South America Is 'Special'

The Pulse of Radio reports: METALLICA recently announced an early 2010 tour of South and Central America, with the band visiting two cities — Panama City and San Jose, Costa Rica — that it has never played before. The group will also hit Lima, Peru, for what promoters are expecting to be the biggest musical event ever staged in Peruvian history. Bassist Robert Trujillo was blown away when The Pulse of Radio told him that. "Wow. The largest concert in Lima, Peru," he said. "I didn't know that, so this is special. For me going down there is special anyway. The fans are always next level. Getting down into Lima and further down into Brazil, Argentina — we've got three shows at Argentina Riverplate Stadium — to get into that region of the world and check out the culture down there is very exciting for us."

The Lima show takes place on January 19, with more South American dates expected to be announced soon.

The band played Mexico City for the first time in a decade in June, with the group keeping the shows on its schedule despite the outbreak of swine flu that originated in the area.

AVENGED SEVENFOLD and a Mexican act called RESORTE served as the opening acts.

Comentários: No México, os caras contaram com a abertura do Avenged Sevenfold, mas aqui no Brasil, do jeito que sempre tem um bando de "Shreck", aqueles ogros ignorantes, os caras com certeza seriam hostilizados pelo público. O jeito é contar mais uma vez com o bom e velho Sepultura, pra esquentar a galera, pra variar...
