Metallica will make available single song downloads from every show on their upcoming North American tour.
Full shows can also be downloaded within hours of each show ending but in addition, single songs from each show will also be able to be downloaded for 99c a track.“This is the next logical step in a process that began back in 1991 when we first implemented the “Taper Section” at our shows, where our fans were encouraged to bring in their own gear to record the show, and then take home their very own ‘bootleg’ of the concert they had just seen,” says Metallica’s Lars Ulrich. “This technology will enable our fans to get the best possible recording of the show, without having to hold a microphone in the air for the entire night!”
This next leg of touring will see Metallica heading outside North America to perform the songs from Death Magnetic.
The North American dates start tomorrow, October 3rd in Tampa, Florida.
