Thanks for sharing this.

Was really thrilled to hear about Metallica but found ticket prices are steep at 150+

Perhaps that is the price you pay for true class. Need to check if budget permits. cheers

I was surprised that the more expensive Metallica tix were for General Admisssion....with the exception of outdoor concerts and limited mosh pit areas, I didn't think this was done any more....I'll be there in the heart of it all (with my earplugs, praying that all 5'2" of me doesn't get trampled)!

Oh, and don't forget about Justin Bieber for the F1 Finale! Beebah Feevah!!!

[the lynx]

Coming up in August as well: Linkin Park in KL (19th)!
