Metallica M72 Perth Exclusive Pop-Up Poster Event For Australia Artwork By Ken Taylor On 1st November 2025 At Optus Stadium World Tour Unisex Two Sides Washed T-Shirt

This exclusive unisex two-sided washed t-shirt showcases original artwork by acclaimed Perth-based illustrator Ken Taylor, created specifically for Metallica’s M72 World Tour pop-up shop event celebrating the band’s November 1, 2025 performance at Optus Stadium, Western Australia. The vintage washed finish gives this officially licensed garment a worn-in, lived-in aesthetic that evokes the authentic feel of classic concert merchandise, as if it has already been through countless mosh pits and legendary metal shows, appealing to collectors who prefer the distressed look over standard fresh prints. Ken Taylor, a Fremantle-based artist who completed his Advanced Diploma of Design majoring in illustration at the Western Australian College of Art and Design, has built an international reputation for creating richly detailed gig posters for Metallica across multiple world tours, with his signature screenprinting techniques, intricate imagery, and bold color choices perfectly capturing the band’s brutal aesthetic. This Perth-exclusive design was unveiled when Taylor personally appeared at the Murray Street Mall pop-up shop (239 Murray Street, Perth WA 6000) on October 31, 2025 at 10am to sign merchandise and create a live painting that visitors could win, making this washed t-shirt part of an authentically artist-endorsed limited edition collection unavailable at any other M72 tour stop worldwide. The November 1st Optus Stadium show marks the opening night of Metallica’s Australian and New Zealand tour leg featuring support acts Evanescence and Suicidal Tendencies, with tickets ranging from $110.33 to $750 for general admission and Snake Pit Enhanced Experience packages reaching $3,998 at the 60,000-capacity venue located on the Burswood Peninsula near Perth’s CBD. The M72 Perth pop-up shop, operating October 31 through November 2, 2025 with extended hours (8:30am-8:30pm Friday-Saturday, 8:30am-6pm Sunday), represents the only location globally to purchase this specific Ken Taylor Perth poster design and accompanying washed t-shirt, alongside other exclusives including splatter vinyl of “72 Seasons,” Luke Preece skateboard decks, city-specific patches, and tour products unavailable at standard retail or the stadium venue. The two-sided design maximizes the wearable canvas with Taylor’s complete artistic vision displayed on both front and back panels, while the vintage wash treatment adds collector value through its pre-aged appearance that appeals to fans seeking statement pieces beyond standard tour souvenirs. This Perth-exclusive release holds particular significance as Western Australia’s only M72 tour stop before Metallica continues to Adelaide, Melbourne, Brisbane, and Sydney, with the band returning to Australia for the first time since headlining Soundwave Festival in 2013, making this 125-million-album-selling metal legend’s comeback a historic moment for Perth’s music scene.
