Metallica Pause WorldWired Tour To Open Venue With San Francisco Symphony This Weekend

Currently touring the world on the WorldWired Tour Metallica put the huge tour on hold for the weekend to open the brand-new Chase Centre, in San Francisco.

The venue, that will be the new home for NBA's Golden State Warriors housed thousands of Metallica fans to see the second instalment of S&M; the world's biggest metal band perform with the San Francisco Symphony Orchestra.

First performing in 1999 they brought back this show for hometown fans to mark the special opening.

The original concert that has gone five-times platinum is a fan favourite, showing the diversity in the band's sound.
