Both Metallica's No Repeats weekend and My Chemical Romance's 20th anniversary Black Parade musical theatre reimagining hit UK stadiums, plus Damon Albarn beefs with an unlikely underground metal…
Sam DignamHost... you know, Metallica big no repeats type, uh, stadium shows been going through the UK and My Chemical Romance stadium show doing 20 years of The Black Parade.
So I guess the first 30, 40 minutes, whatever ends up being, of this show is gonna be talking all about those.

So my f- I had a friend who had the, the ticket, had the two tickets to no repeats, 'cause again, I couldn't afford to drop 200-odd quid on, like, two Metallica shows.

It's like, I think, like, given two shows, the bill they were bringing along with them, I think that is, you know, fair money for Metallica to be charging for these shows.

But I just couldn't at the time given the amount of other stuff I'd got going on this summer.

I was like, "I, I can't afford it." And then when on the day, my friend who'd been to the, the, the first show with Gojira and Knocked Loose was like, "I can't make it to the one stage.

You can just take my ticket, and I'll do you, like, a mate rate for it." I was like, "Sound.

Yeah, I'll take that," because I, I've, I haven't seen Metallica in over a decade.

The other thing of the support bands for this one, I mean, I've mentioned Avatar who might- Just be the worst band I've seen this year.
They, they get really shown up by every other band on the poster, right, when you put the two of those together
