Another Video Trailer Released for Metallica’s “Orion Music & More” Festival
Although many Metallica fans have had mixed feelings about the band’s most recent endeavor with Lou Reed, entitled "Lulu", many are still thrilled to have the opportunity to see the band live again this summer in a festival setting. The "Orion Music and More Festival" will be hitting Bader Field in Atlantic City on June 23 & 24. Today a new video trailer was released to promote the festival event.
'Orion' will feature several stages including the Damage Inc. Stage that will be completely devoted to punk and thrash music. The festival will feature not only music, but also comedy by Jim Breuer among other non-musical acts.
Metallica will be headlining both nights of 'Orion'. The first night they will be playing “The Black Album” in its entirety and on the second night “Ride the Lightning” front-to-back. This is sure to excite any die-hard Metallica fan, especially because this will be the only time they will be playing these albums in North America in 2012.
Tickets for Orion Music and More are currently on sale for $150 for a two-day pass including all fees. Visit www.orionmusicandmore.com to buy tickets.
