METALLICA just completed their "most unique" show to date performing near the heliport of the Argentine Antarctic Base Carlini in Antarctica!

The band have issued the following statement:

"This was the most unique show Metallica has ever done. The band, contest winners, research station scientists (from Russia, South Korea, China, Poland, Chile, Brazil and Germany), and the ship crew, all crammed in this little dome out on the helipad of Carlini Station in Antarctica! The energy in the little dome was amazing! Words can not describe how happy everyone was.

The band cranked out ten songs for the small crowd including 'Creeping Death', 'For Whom the Bell Tolls', 'Sad But True', 'Welcome Home (Sanitarium)', 'Master of Puppets', 'One', 'Blackened', 'Nothing Else Matters', 'Enter Sandman' and 'Seek & Destroy'.
