Death-By-Digital Metallica Collection

Hi there, my name is Doug Brown and I am a Metallica collector from Toronto, Ontario.  I mainly collect CD and Vinyl variations, but I also collect backstage passes, tour programs, toys,and other odds and edds.  Feel free to drop me a line if you have something for sale that I don't have.  If you have a website I can place a link to it if you do the same.

-JULY 29th-

Happy summer folks!  Just got back from a nice trip to the west coast of Canada.  Returned with a few Metallica gems (as always)

-DECEMBER 18th-

Wishing everyone a safe Christmas.  My annual Collection picture will be done on January 2nd.

-OCTOBER 21st-
Flexi Disc section added under bootlegs- Backstage pass collection (65+!) To be added soon.

-OCTOBER 1st-

This is a message to remind all Metallica collectors to calm down, take a breath, and that these new promos will soon be as rare as the Until it Sleeps promo CD :)

*December 16, sold for 12 bucks.  What did I tell ya!

-SEPTEMBER 21st-

I am currently archiving every Canadian pressed Metallica CD.  Let me know if any of your Canadian copies have a Steeles Address on the back (other than Death Magnetic).

-SEPTEMBER 12th-

Today Death Magnetic hit the shelves.  Last night I went to HMV Toronto for the Midnight Pre-sale and met plenty of crazy Met fans who also couldn't wait until this afternoon. Visit www.metclub.com to order special versions of this album, including a coffin box with the CD and the 5 LP set.

  For those who check back to see my collection Grow, you can see what I have added recently.  Some will be rare, some will just be the common ones that I still need ( oh, there is a lot!).  My goal is to have all of the "cheap" common items in the next year or two.  If you are a large collector, you know how hard that is!  Enjoy!  You can also tell that I am on a huge "Death Magnetic" kick right now.  So should you, the album is awesome!
