Metallica Is Selling a $7,000 "Enhanced Experience Package" for Their New Tour.
If you want to get the most out of Metallica's M72 tour next year, you're going to shell out . . . and that's even BEFORE Ticketmaster's "dynamic pricing" scheme kicks in.
Metallica will play TWO shows in every city on tour and with an entirely different set list and a different opening band each night.
They're offering several "Enhanced Experience" ticket packages, and they're not cheap.
The Cadillac of the bunch is the "Lux Aeterna" Private Platform Experience. It costs just over $7,200 . . . but that's for up to EIGHT people. You get a private viewing platform, a cooler of soda and beer, access to a pre-show party . . .
One merch item for everyone in the group, and the ability to pre-order merch and have it delivered to you so you don't have to stand in line for it.
The cheapest of these packages is the "Frantic" Early-Entry General Admission Package. It starts at $414 and gets you early access to the general admission section for both shows, plus a limited-edition piece of merchandise and a drink.
There are also packages that give you a seat in the "Snake Pit" . . . which is a standing location in the MIDDLE OF THE STAGE.

Fall Out Boy Hints At New Album
A mysterious newspaper ad has the music world buzzing. A full-page ad appeared in the Chicago Tribune with “FOB 8” in large letters, followed by the phrase “If you build it, they will come” below.
The phrase is a reference to the Kevin Costner-baseball film “Field of Dreams.” And fans are speculating that “FOB 8” is a hint that a new album from Fall Out Boy, which would be their eighth, is coming.
It’s also worth noting, as "Loudwire" points out, that the "Chicago Tribune" is “one of Fall Out Boy’s hometown papers.” The pop-punk group came together in Wilmette, a Chicago suburb. If the hype is correct, this would be the band’s first full-length album since 2018.
