Metallica has announced that they will bring cameras to the August 24th show at the Rogers Arena in Vancouver, BC to film for the much anticipated Metallica 3D film. Thanks to MetalUnderground.com for posting the bands announcement...

"We're super excited to announce that the gigantic, massive brand new Metalli-show will head north following a sold out run of eight shows in Mexico City, with the first stop in Edmonton, AB on August 17 at Rexall Place followed by Vancouver, BC on August 24 at Rogers Arena.

"The Vancouver show brings a twist to the mix - you'll be a part of the show!! That's right, we will be filming this show all in 3D for... you guessed it, the upcoming Metallica 3D movie that we've mentioned on and off a few times this year.

"We couldn't think of a better place than Vancouver to end the three week new stage run with cameras capturing it all, so bring your nuttiest, craziest Metalli-self to the show, be a part of movie history, and show the rest of the world how much Vancouver rocks.

"Tickets for both the Edmonton and Vancouver shows go on sale this Friday, May 25 at 10:00 AM local time with a Live Nation pre-sale on Thursday, May 24 from 10:00 AM to 10:00 PM. Clubbers - your pre-sale starts on Wednesday, May 23, so log in now for all the details.

"For those of you wondering what lies ahead, the emphasis here is on 'end of our three week new stage run' as these are indeed the last dates that we are announcing for summer of 2012.
