The eruption of the Eyjafjallajokull volcano in Iceland, which began on April 14, has paralyzed air traffic throughout central and northern Europe, stranding thousands of travelers and forcing more than 20 European countries to close their airspace.

However, Metallica were already in Oslo on their World Magnetic Tour when the eruption began.

"Thank God, they managed to fly from America to our continent, and now they are moving either by car or by train, so that they get to Moscow," SAV Entertainment and Russian Show-Centre head, Vladimir Zubitskiy said.

They play Vilnius on Tuesday and Wednesday and then Moscow"s Olimpiisky Sports Complex on Saturday and Sunday, April 24 and 25.
