That’s right, Quebec City.

I’ve been to Quebec, and I’ve gotta hand it to you fucks: your women are glorious. I went up there once for a snowboarding trip, and I swear I was walking around with a plank in my pants the whole weekend.

There were gorgeous chicks everywhere, and they all spoke French, which is kinda sexy. They could be dumber than a box of rocks, but they were delectable.

Anyways, guess what, Quebec?

Metallica’s coming to play two “special” this September.

Says the band:

“We’re excited to be heading back to Canada this fall for what promises to be a very unique historical pair of shows as we have been invited to usher out the legendary Colisée Pepsi and welcome the brand new Centre Videotron all in a three-day period!”

I was invited to do that, too, but I was busy.

“On September 14th, we’ll be taking the stage for the final event held at the longtime mainstay Colisée Pepsi, the classic hockey arena that made its debut in 1949. Our first appearance there was in 1989 and since then we’ve played seven shows in the arena, including the two shows filmed for the ‘Quebec Magnetic’ DVD release. Two days later, on September 16th, we’ll open the doors to the brand new Centre Vidéotron for the first event to ever be held there. How cool is that?!”

That’s cool. The paycheck will probably be pretty cool, too.

Metallica adds that Quebec City has always been “one of our favorite places to visit” and is “home to some of the most rabid ‘Tallica fans anywhere. It only seems fitting that we share this special passing of the torch with you! Each show will be a completely different experience right down to where we set up the stage. Look for one night with the classic end stage, the other in the round, different set lists and even different opening bands…two totally different Met experiences in one 48-hour period!”

Tickets go on sale this Friday.
