Oh nice. So they played the same venue twice within the space of a few months? Metallica are touring beasts.
They came back to Dallas a few months later, too. It was iced up when we saw them indoors, and the next time around it was Summer and they played the shed.
Tours were different animals back then. Texas tours were often 8 or 9 dates back in the day. Now it's almost always three, with San Antonio and Austin duking it out for the third gig. On the Damaged Justice Tour they played 12 cities in Texas, and then came back for three more in the Summer.

Maiden always did the same thing, and not being able to see one of those Podunk Amarillo or Waco shows is one of my concert regrets. That's back when the Jesus Freaks were out in full force, and in Lubbock they're apt to take that nonsense a whole lot more seriously. Not to mention they're probably playing a highschool gymnasium.
