Description: METALLICA - METRO CHICAGO 2021 TOUR - LIMITED / NUMBERED CONCERT SCREENPRINT / GIG POSTER w/ GUITAR PICKS! DESIGNED BY STACEY MARQUARDT - SHOW EDITION: 300 S/E 18x24 FRAMED INCREDIBLY! WORDS CANNOT EVEN BEGIN TO DESCRIBE! SUCH AN AMAZING PIECE!! This extremely rare print, "The Cat's Out Of The Bag" is from the intensely guarded 'secret concert' location. Those involved with the show had to sign confidentiality agreements in an effort to keep the fan hysteria to a minimum. It worked to a degree; however, the secret was leaked on social media minutes before the announcement and of course, minutes later, the official announcement was made from band management. It was gridlock for a short while around the Metro as wristbands were handed to ONLY THOSE FANS that showed up at the METRO personally and paid the $19.83 (tribute to the last time the band played the tiny venue back in 1983) The line literally wrapped around the block... for many blocks, despite the venue's small capacity. Many late stragglers were turned down several minutes after the announcement. There were stories of abandoned vehicles blocking others - to an influx of local business lots calling tow trucks to allow actual customers access to their business. I personally witnessed a guy pay someone $100 for their parking spot on the street behind the venue. Those that were lucky enough to receive a wristband were treated to one INCREDIBLE show! The show took place on September 20, 2021 at the iconic METRO in Chicago. An outstanding venue that has hosted numerous acts over the years. This is a gig poster that is venue specific, and this particular print is very rare. Number 281 of 300 - GREAT SHOW! (photos not included) I DECIDED TO FRAME THIS BECAUSE IT WAS ONE OF A FEW THAT I WANTED TO HANG ON MY WALL TO ENJOY FOR A BIT PRIOR TO SELLING. THIS PIECE WAS PART OF A LOT OF ITEMS THAT JUST WENT IN FOR FRAMING. IT IS FRAMED WITH THE ACCESS PASS / WRISTBAND FOR ENTRY TO THE VENUE AS WELL AS 2 STAGE USED GUITAR PICKS!

So why not do it again. This time we're in Chicago and we'll be hitting the stage at the storied Metro on Clark Street tonight... our first time back there since 1983!!"Metro didn't reveal how many tickets were sold, but the venue holds about 1,000 people.METALLICA's setlist was as follows:01.

In that time, I have amassed a collection of items like none other and am now offering a small portion of my items to the public. If you are looking to purchase something authentic - here is your chance. It will pass any authentication process you wish and is as rare as it gets. I try and provide as much information as possible regarding each item and most everything I have I have actual dates and venues they were signed. I went so far as to literally catalog everything I collected at a particular concert that evening or following day of the event, going so far as to keep an actual journal for over 30 years with meticulous notes. I look forward to finding good homes for these pieces... It breaks my heart to sell them, but I must part with some of them as I have literally run out of storage and refuse to rent a larger unit. All of these items have been stored in a temperature-controlled storage facility and the framed items were custom framed by a professional framing company to museum quality standards using Acid Free materials and UV / Museum protective glass. Shipping charges cover all packing materials including shipping with tracking and insurance for the full purchase price. Every effort is made to ensure your item gets to you in perfect condition with extreme precautions taken using bubble wrap and proper shipping boxes used. The insurance / tracking numbers are provided immediately after shipping in the extremely rare event any damage should occur in transit. Thank you for your interest.... It's been a lifelong passion of mine preserving these items and the kind words are much appreciated.
