Metallica concert chronology |
The Damage, Inc. Tour was the third concert tour by the American thrash metal band Metallica. The name of the tour is taken from the last song on the group's third studio album, Master of Puppets, which was obviously the album that they were promoting for the tour. It began on March 27, 1986 & ended on February 13, 1987. Metallica supported Ozzy Osbourne from March to August, headlined a string of U.S. dates between May 23 & June 7 with Armored Saint while Ozzy toured Japan alone, and were the main act throughout the fall & winter with support from Anthrax in September & Metal Church from November to February. Roadie John Marshall, who also played guitar in "Metal Church," filled in for James Hetfield on rhythm guitar between July 29 & September 25 following Hetfield's mid-tour skateboarding accident which resulted in a broken arm. Hetfield, Cliff Burton, & Kirk Hammett had decided to dismiss Lars Ulrich upon completion of the tour,[1] but all plans were set aside upon the death of Burton on September 27, 1986 in an accident with the band's tour bus near Ljungby, Sweden while en route from Stockholm, Sweden to Copenhagen, Denmark. Performances that were scheduled for October were postponed & the band hired a new bassist, Jason Newsted, to complete the rest of the tour. Metallica also became the first band of the Big Four to cross the Iron Curtain, with 2 concerts in Katowice, Poland on February 10 & 11, 1987. [2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10]
