Does anybody know if Metallica will be touring in the near future?
reply or PM me.

They're playing Sonisphere festival next month - http://uk.sonispherefestivals.com/

They only toured a few months ago so highly unlikely there'll be a proper tour anytime soon. I reckon they'll do a festival (maybe Download) next year then that will be it until they put a new album out which could be years!

I'm on about seeing them LIVE. Do u know if they're touring near or in sheffield?
cos i don't know where knebworth is... and i think its short notice.

A festival is LIVE... and as Fantomas said, they have toured recently, so are unlikely to tour again soon, they may play festivals in europe next year.

What Fantomas is saying is that they will be playing festivals until their next album comes out which could be a long wait. This year they are playing the Sonisphere festival which is next month. Next year they could possibly be playing at the Download festival, or similar. Although which festival they play at is anyone's guess, I saw them at the Leeds festival last year.

OK so it could be a while then... :(

They seem to play one UK festival a year.

They played Sheffield about 2 months ago so unlikely to be hear again for at least another 3/4 I'd imagine.
