METALLICA Fan Who Helped Bring Band To Christchurch Gets Shout-Out From The Stage

September 24, 2010

According to The Marlborough Express, METALLICA frontman James Hetfield dedicated the song "Broken, Beat & Scarred" during the band's September 21, 2010 concert at the CBS Canterbury Arena in Christchurch, New Zealand to Jamie Woods, one of many hard-working fans who campaigned to bring METALLICA to Christchurch.

"I was hurled off the ground because a couple of people recognized me. I was the only one up in the air," Jamie said.

"James pulled the horns at me. I had a big grin staring up at the stage."

Woods organized a petition to bring METALLICA to Christchurch, which was distributed around the South Island in May, and gathered 11,285 signatures in one day.
