Give Blood, Rock Hard - Score an Exclusive Metallica Tee!
In April 2025, a series of American Red Cross x Metallica blood drives kicked off in select locations along the U.S. leg of the M72 World Tour. More than 2,000 blood and platelet donations were collected through this lifesaving partnership. Members of the Metallica Family can keep the epic cause going by helping save even more lives with the launch of the Give Where You Live campaign.
Sign up to give blood or platelets at any Red Cross blood drive across the U.S. starting July 29, 2025, through February 28, 2026, to get a new limited-edition T-shirt, while supplies last^. Donors who give during the campaign will also be automatically entered to win a one-of-a-kind ESP Snakebyte guitar featuring the exclusive Red Cross x Metallica design created by famed Metallica artist Squindo and personally autographed by all Metallica band members^^.
