Tattoo artist Joice M. Figueiró was 39 weeks pregnant when she attended the concert Saturday 7 May and began having contractions shortly after Metallica took to the stage.
According to various sources, she was rushed to a seating area after her waters broke to give birth to a baby boy during the show in Curitiba, Brazil. The heavy metal group was performing at the city’s Estádio Couto Pereira stadium as part of their South American tour.
The new mother later shared the story on Instagram together with a picture of her son, Luan Figueiró.
Translated her post read: “When would I imagine that I would be at the Metallica show at 39 weeks pregnant and this boy decides to be born right there, three songs before the show ends, at Couto Pereira to the sound of ‘Enter Sandman’?”
