• Canadian Fall Tour Announced and Fan Pre-Sale Has Started

    Hello all…

    Just a quick heads up to let you know that we have announced our Canadian fall tour dates today! Excited! Our website direct to fan pre-sale will also begin today. These will be the best seats in the house, priced better than anywhere else with way less fees. Bam.

    We can only offer a few tickets this way and they tend to go fast, so if you are interested, make sure to visit www.ilovemetric.com/tour.

    In other modern music retail news (ha ha, we’re captivated by it too)…If you don’t already have our new album Synthetica, you can bundle your ticket with a digital download of the album at the same time, and pay just $8.49 (which we’re told is a 15% discount off the normal price.)

    The music is cheap and the love is deep. See you on the road!

  • Metric in Vancouver on June 23: Win tickets you can’t buy to see Synthetica live. (Contest Closed)

    Hey,

    With 24 hours left before the album release, we’ve got details on one last free show for you in celebration of the release of Synthetica – this one near you!

    Rogers is presenting a small, private concert at the Commodore Ballroom in Vancouver on Saturday, June 23. We’ve split up the tickets between us, so the only way to get in is either by getting tickets directly from the band, or from Rogers through one of the promotions they’re running.

    Visit www.rogers.com/metric for details on how they will be distributing their tickets.

    As for the tickets we’ll be distributing free to fans, we’re going with the same approach we used for the free shows in Toronto, NYC, San Francisco and LA:

    • If you are 19 years old or over (sorry, couldn’t make all-ages work), just send us an email to june23@ilovemetric.com and include:

    o Your first name
    o Your last name
    o Answers to the 3 following questions:
    1) Where was Emily Haines born?
    2) For which director’s new movie did Metric just record the score?
    3) What’s the name of Joshua Winstead and Joules Scott-Key’s side project?

    • On a first come, first served basis, while supplies last, the first people to write in with all the correct information will receive an offer to confirm 2 spots for the show on the band’s guest list.

    • Each winner will then have until 5pm PST on Friday June 15th to confirm their attendance. Otherwise, any tickets reserved for people who don’t RSVP in time will be given to the next person in line.

    It’s that simple! Good luck and hope to see you there!
