Metallica announced North America dates for its WorldWired Tour, a 34-show swing beginning this fall in support of the band’s latest LP, Hardwired… to Self-Destruct, and Cleveland made the cut.

James, Lars and company will stop by Quicken Loans Arena… in about a year, on Feb. 1, 2019. Tickets go on sale soon though — March 2 at 10 a.m.

Comedian Jim Breuer will be the opening act for all dates. “Jim, along with a DJ to get the night rocking with some great tunes, hits the stage before the band with comedy, fan interaction, giveaways and much more,” a release said.
