Metallica has been making headlines lately thanks to their massive run of sold-out shows at the Sphere in Las Vegas. The band’s high-tech residency has been drawing fans from all over the world, and tickets have been some of the hottest and hardest to get!

When Metallica Rocked El Paso
On February 28, 2019, Metallica played a completely sold-out show at the Don Haskins Center, marking their first performance in El Paso in 27 years. The last time the band had played here before that was January 21, 1992, so it’s safe to say the crowd had been waiting a while!

I was lucky enough to be there myself, and it was my first time seeing the band live, so I knew it was one of those shows I couldn’t miss out on!…
