Metallica and their “S&M2” shows will be taking place September 6 and 8 at the new Chase Center in San Francisco, but if you’re not local to the area or weren’t able to secure tickets, you’ll still have the opportunity to see this show.

Per the band’s official website, the “S&M2” shows will be recorded for a concert film that will screen in over 3,000 theaters worldwide on October 9.

Theaters are still in the process of being secured for this screening event, but tickets tentatively set go on sale starting August 7. Fans interested in being notified about ticket information when it becomes available can sign up for alerts at Metallica.film.

8 ’80s Metal Albums Everyone Should Own

• Metallica – ‘Master Of Puppets’

  Share

  More like 'Masterpiece of Puppets.'  Everyone should obey this album.

• Dio – ’Holy Diver’

  Share

  The late Ronnie James Dio was 5’4”, but his voice could move mountains, and it’s on full display on this iconic metal album.

• Motorhead – ‘Ace Of Spades’

  Share

  We’re certainly born to lose, but we live for this Motorhead album.
• Iron Maiden – ‘The Number Of The Beast’

  Share

  It was difficult to pick just one album from Maiden to include on this list, but we picked The Number Of The Beast for its historical significance of it being the first Maiden album to feature Bruce Dickinson. (FYI:  Runner-up was 'Powerslave.')

• Megadeth – ‘Peace Sells…But Who’s Buying?’

  Share

  Speaking of “buying,” BUY THIS ALBUM RIGHT NOW IF YOU SOMEHOW DON'T HAVE IT!

• Slayer – ‘Reign In Blood’

  Share

  If someone creates a “best metal albums” list and a Slayer album isn’t on it, does it actually exist?  No…it doesn’t, and if your metal collection doesn’t include this iconic album, it’s just sorely lacking.
• Judas Priest – ‘British Steel’

  Share

  Like actual steel, this Priest classic is f*cking solid.

• Motley Crue – ‘Shout At The Devil’

  Share

  Badass and glam-influenced and proud of it! Also, that title track, though…
