Metallica will perform an intimate show at Los Angeles’ Fonda Theatre in Hollywood on Thursday, December 15th. The band made the announcement on Wednesday (Dec 7th) as they prepare a trip to the Southland for media appearances in support of Hardwired…To Self Destruct.

“If you’ve been following along, by now you’ve figured out that while interviews and photo shoots are great fun, we can’t visit without playing live too!” the band writes on its website. “So, we’re back to invite you to join us at the Fonda Theatre in Hollywood next week on Thursday, December 15th for our second to last show of this year.”

Fifth Member fan club members can win a chance to purchase up to two tickets in a special pre-sale that begins Friday, December 9th at 9 am PST lasting only an hour.
