Bangalore has seen some of the best of international bands and artistes perform live. From Jethro Tull and Roger Waters to Deep Purple and Iron Maiden, they\u2019ve all come here and wowed the crowds. And for metal heads here, it is none other than Metallica that is next on line. The band will perform live in the city on October 30, after their performance in the capital on October 28.\nNews was out in the open when the band wrote on their site, \u201cAt this stage in the game, there are very few places in the world that we have not dragged our gear and crew to, so that makes this show announcement extra special… for the first time ever, we will be visiting India for two shows! It\u2019s about time, wouldn\u2019t you say?!?! Up first will be Delhi on October 28, 2011, at F1 Rocks, held in Leisure Valley, Sector 29, Gurgaon as we help to celebrate the first Grand Prix race ever held in India. Night number two will find us at the Bangalore Palace Grounds, Main Palace, Bangalore, on October 30 as part of the Sonisphere Festival.\u201d
\nWhile there have been major speculations about the bands visit over the past two weeks, the organisers at DNA Networks didn\u2019t confirm the same. When After Hrs contacted them, they just said, \u201cWe\u2019ve approached many people, but nothing has been finalised. We cannot confirm anything.\u201d
\nHowever, it looks like the band hasn\u2019t been able to contain their excitement, for India forms a big chunk of their fan base. The band also wrote that all the tickets will be general admission and that the information on the exact dates of ticket sales will be announced on the DNA Networks\u2019 website.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
