Metallica have cancelled their previously announced South American tour due to "physical and mental exhaustion," at least according to several reports in South America. The Japan tour which is scheduled to follow the South American tour, is also believed to be affected by the cancellation.
According to the band's Argentine promoter, CIE Presenta, an official announcement will be made on Monday October 20th as to whether the South American dates will be rescheduled of if they will be postponed indefinitely.
It is not known what the exact reasons are for the cancellation but several reports claim James Hetfield is going through further personal problems, other reports say there have been personal problems on the set of the recent video shoot for The Unnamed Feeling. No official word from Metallica has been announced as of yet.

Nun, das hört sich ja gar nicht so toll an. Ich glaub auch nicht, dass es uns jetzt aber weiterhilft, wild rumzuspekulieren, wie da oben schon steht, entweder wir haben eine Fortsetzung von James´ (Alk?- bitte nicht!!) -Problemen, oder aber auch Probs mit Rob Trujillo...naja, bleibt abzuwarten, ob sie die Tour wirklich canceln...
