The weekend concerts of METALLICA at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey, featured pre-show performances. PRONG took to the stage in the G section of the MetLife parking lot on August 4, followed by OVERKILL on August 6, both at 3 p.m. Access to these exclusive pre-concert events required a valid ticket.
A fan-captured video of OVERKILL‘s performance can be seen below.
On Friday, inside the stadium, PANTERA and MAMMOTH WVH played as supporting acts, starting the music at 6 p.m. The Sunday show was opened by FIVE FINGER DEATH PUNCH and ICE NINE KILLS.
The M72 tour, initiated in late April in Amsterdam, Netherlands, showcases METALLICA performing two separate shows in each city they tour. Each show, known as a “No Repeat Weekend,” presents entirely unique setlists and supporting acts. The tour is also characterized by a daring new stage layout that moves the iconic METALLICA Snake Pit to the center of the performance area.
OVERKILL‘s twentieth studio album, Scorched, was released on April 14th via Nuclear Blast Records.
