As a special salute to their fans, tickets will be available for only $20.00 in advance + facility fee through ticketmaster.com, Rotate This, & Soundscapes.

Metric have spent much of the past two years touring across North America, Europe and Japan. Their Sound Academy show marks a successful return to Canada.
