Michael Monroe joined Metallica’s Robert Trujillo and Kirk Hammett for a performance of his 1989 single, “Dead, Jail Or Rock 'N' Roll", at the Hartwall Arena in Helsinki, Finland on May 9, and the band are streaming professional video from the event.
The tune, which appeared on the Hanoi Rocks’ singer’s second solo record, “Not Fakin’ It”, made headlines when it was originally issued with an accompanying video that featured Guns N’ Roses singer Axl Rose and secured rotation on MTV back in the day.
A legend in his native country, the Finnish rocker’s latest release is 2015’s “Blackout States.”
The May 9 stop in Helsinki is the first of two dates in the city, as Metallica prepare to wrap up their current arena tour of Europe with another show at the same venue on May 11.
Metallica will enjoy a break from their WorldWired tour in support of “Hardwired…To Self-Destruct” this summer before launching a North American arena run this fall.
"Following last summer's sold-out 25-date stadium run,” says the band, “this year we're bringing the in-the-round production currently being seen in European arenas to the U.S. and Canada kicking off on September 2, 2018 in Madison, WI.
“Along the way we'll be visiting 34 cities we did not go to last year, including a few we haven't been to in decades, including Grand Forks, ND (nearly 30 years), Sioux Falls, SD, El Paso, TX, Birmingham, AL (nearly 26 years) and State College, PA (20 years). About time, wouldn't you say?!”
