'Enter Snowman,' Metallica To Play Antarctica

Metallica

ANTARCTICA (RADIO.COM) - Metallica is a global phenomenon and have played every continent but one.

That's going to change when the thrash metal legends cross Antarctica off of their to-do list for a one-off show, when they play the Argentine Antarctic Base Carlini on December 8.

There's a few catches, though.

First: there will be no amplifiers involved. But it won't be an "unplugged" type of deal. Instead, the band's performance will be transmitted directly to audience members' headphones.

The other catch: you probably can't go.
