They played the Roanoke Civic Center Coliseum (SW Virginia).  Yes, I kid
you not.  (I was expecting them to tear off masks to reveal Garth Brooks,
lReba McIntyre, Clint Black et al, and reveal it all to be a cruel hoax,
but no.;)

You can find out their upcoming tour stops by browsing the TicketMaster
WWW site (http://www.ticketmaster.com/); look off the "Box Office" link.
I note from the listing from there that they are due to play two dates in
NC:

METALLICA

 11-APR-97  CHARLOTTE COLISEUM              CHARLOTTE      NC

 12-APR-97  GREENSBORO COLISEUM COMPLEX     GREENSBORO     NC


(Btw, looking at the tour dates listed, it seems that, unlike Hawkwind,
Metallica are not averse to playing in the South.)

Cheers,

Paul.
