The Outside Lands concert was METALLICA's first in Golden Gate Park, with the band's drummer, Lars Ulrich, tells Rolling Stone, "There's a long, long, long history of experiences and culture and music [in Golden Gate Park]. It's a history that dates back to the '60s, when bands like the GRATEFUL DEAD and JEFFERSON AIRPLANE would perform free shows in the park."

Ulrich has told Rolling Stone that the band's Orion Music + More festival, a two-day event featuring more than 20 bands which took place in late June in Atlantic City, New Jersey, will definitely be back in 2013 and won't be moving far from its original location. Ulrich said, "We had a great experience in New Jersey, and as we look to 2013, we're definitely looking to keep it in New Jersey or to keep it on the East Coast." Even though the band is based on the West Coast, it staged the event on the other side of the country to make it easier for European fans to come.

The two shows on June 22 and June 23 sold a total of 24,000 tickets, according to The Press Of Atlantic City.

METALLICA will spend the rest of the summer working on its 3D feature film — which will involve unveiling a new stage show at some gigs in Canada that will be filmed for the movie — before finally starting work on its 10th studio album in September.
