DENVER — Metallica closed their M72 World Tour with a fantastic showing in Denver this past week — and we’re not just talking about their two sold-out shows.
The heavy metal band brought over 152,000 fans across two sold-out nights to the stadium on Friday and Sunday, with the back-to-back performances setting a new two-show attendance record for the venue, according to LiveNation.
As if that wasn’t enough, the band’s All Within My Hands foundation and the Denver Red Cross partnered for a blood drive that also made history, a spokeperson for LiveNation said.
