Metallica Announce First European Tour In 13 Years

It's been a long time since Metallica went on tour in Europe. Since 1996 in fact. Since then the only other appearances have been one-off gig's and appearances at the odd festival. But hey, it's not like anybody was complaining that much, because Metallica weren't exactly churning out any good records during this 13 year period. But hey, now that the band are back on form with Death Magnetic, maybe it'll be worth some of your hard-earned pounds and euros to catch them live.
