First Look At METALLICA's Pop-Up Store In New York City (Video)

May 14, 2017

METALLICA is bringing back the pop-up store in select cities throughout the North American leg of the band's "WorldWired" tour. The grand opening is being held this weekend (May 12-14) in New York City at 96 Spring Street.

A five-minute video overview of the METALLICA pop-up store in New York can be seen below (courtesy of Piercing Metal).

METALLICA drummer Lars Ulrich said: "We did a pop-up store when we played up in Minneapolis last summer. It was off-the-chart cool. We went down there, hung out. The kids were psyched. There was a lot of, obviously, t-shirts and regular merchandise, but there was also some different things that we had unearthed from our storage units and some different, crazy things that some of the super-hardcore fans were getting into. Then we had another pop-up store when we did a week's worth of shows in Copenhagen in February. And we're gonna have a pop-up store every weekend across this great country as we… Wherever we are over a weekend, we'll have a pop-up store happening. So there's some special t-shirts and some other stuff that's only available at the pop-up store."

St. Louis, Missouri: June 2 - June 4
Houston, Texas: June 9 - June 11
