Scheduled to play India on Friday, Metallica was ready to tear up the stage for their first ever visit to the country. Unfortunately, the tearing up happened before the show when a security barrier collapsed. Originally, the organizers postponed the show for  24 hours to fix the problem, but the show ended up being canceled after more than 20 thousand irate concert goers started a riot. The local police arrested four of the promoters from DNA, including the groups general manager, claiming they attempted to cheat fans out of ticket costs, as well as petitioning the bank to freeze their assets. Despite their proposal to postpone the show until Saturday, DNA could not obtain a permit, Metallica said in a statement. "Our first and foremost concern is always for the safety of you."
