"We're still stuck in the studio, but when we were invited to participate in the 21st Annual Bridge School shows, we just couldn't say 'no'. We're going to record both nights (October 27th and 28th at Shoreline Ampitheatre in Mountain View, CA) and have them (at www.livemetallica.com) for you shortly after.
"It's an acoustic show that NEIL YOUNG puts together each year in the Bay Area, and this is the second time for us. And all proceeds from the sale of downloads from these two shows will go to the Bridge School."
From Metallica's previous PR about the appearance: As usual, the line-up is stellar and we're looking forward to seeing TOM WAITS, Eddie Vedder (with Flea & Jack Irons), JOHN MAYER, of course NEIL YOUNG, and others perform those days.
Started by Neil and Peggy Young, the Bridge School is a non-profit organization assisting individuals with severe speech and physical impairments achieve full participation in their communities and is an internationally recognized leader in the education of children who use augmentative and alternative communication. The annual benefit concerts provide the majority of the funding for the school's operation. For more information, check out www.bridgeschool.org.
