Metallica concert chronology |
The M2K Tour was a short concert tour by American heavy metal band Metallica. It ran from late December 1999 to early January 2000. During the tour, "Trapped Under Ice" was requested to be played by a fan when they were in Chicago . The song was only played two other times: on November 17, 1984, in Belgium, and on November 18, 1984, in Paris. Metallica also played the New Year's Eve show in Pontiac, Michigan, at the Silverdome in front of 50,000 people. At the show, Metallica broadcast the Times Square Ball Drop, ushering in the year 2000, and played the classic Kiss track "Detroit Rock City" alongside Ted Nugent, Kid Rock, and Sevendust. The setlists for these tour dates, like their Sick of the Studio '07 tour, consisted of old songs and songs that they had not played in many years.
