The dates include both UK Download Festival shows in Donington and Dublin from last month.

The downloads include special performances of 'Nothing Else Matters' from Dublin alongside Alice In Chains' Jerry Cantrell and the first ever performance of 'The New Song' in Berlin.

All nine shows also contain the complete 'Master Of Puppets' album played live.
