Representatives of the band alongside with organizers of the tour are very sorry to report that there will not be a second “Metallica” show in Riga, Latvia as originally scheduled for April 18, 2010. Due to a recent unprecedented economic downturn in Latvia, there simply was not enough demand for tickets for two shows and band have decided therefore to consolidate them into one. “Metallica” is looking forward to their night back in Riga after a fantastic vibe in the rain in the summer of 2008 and sincerely hope this does not inconvenience too many of fans.

The night of April 18 will now see “Metallica” traveling to Tallinn, Estonia to “Saku Suurhall” for an indoor show. The last time band was in Tallinn in June of 2006, it was the largest live music event there ever. “Metallica” is very psyched to be heading back.
 
The ticket holders of the show in Riga on April 18 have three options: 1) may exchange them for the Riga show on April 17, 2) may exchange them for the Tallinn show on April 18, or 3) may obtain a full refund. There are no more standing tickets available to the first show in Riga, therefore the second show standing ticket holders will be able to exchange their tickets for seated tickets of higher value to the first show on April 17 without additional payment.
