Do Metallica play, or don’t they play? This unrest has prevailed in recent days among the Friday Rock Werchter-goers. The band had canceled its performance at the Out in the Green Festival in Switzerland on Wednesday due to a corona infection. Whether tomorrow’s performance at Rock Werchter would continue has been a matter of fear in recent days. For example, it was not communicated who of the entourage was infected with the c-beast, and the organization of Rock Werchter also did not let it look into its cards. “We are in contact with the band,” spokesman Nele Bigaré said. “They are showing hope that they will be here on Friday.” In the meantime, that wish has come true. “show is on”, it sounded succinctly on Rock Werchter’s social media channels.
