UK FANS OFFERED CHANCE TO WIN VIP ACCESS TO METALLICA'S UK SHOWS!

Metallica are offering their UK fans a "money can't buy" prize.

This is how it works:

Fans insert their (UK bought) CD of the new album "Death Magnetic" into their computer which links direct to a Metallica mini site.

Winners will be one of two couples who receive tickets to the show and get to meet the band backstage. They will also walk out into the auditorium with the band, and watch the first 2 songs from the pit at one end of the stage. (Metallica's live set up is in the round on this tour). (There is no transport or accommodation included in this prize).

The tour dates are:

FEBRUARY 2009

Wed 25 Nottingham Trent FM Arena
Thurs 26 Manchester Evening News Arena
Sat 28 Sheffield Arena
