The Damage, Inc. Tour was the fourth concert tour by American Heavy Metal band Metallica, beginning in the Spring of 1986. The name being inspired by the last song on the touring album Master of Puppets. The album's release landed Metallica on a high profile supporting act gig for metal giant, Ozzy Osbourne, from March to August. From September to the end of the tour Metallica would be the headlining act. The tour would also be the last to feature the late Cliff Burton on bass, as he would be killed in a bus accident on September 27, 1986. The band would cancel all shows scheduled for October, during that time they would seek out a new bass player, eventually finding Jason Newsted.

The Meadowlands Arena show marked one of few Eb-tuned live performances prior to Escape from the Studio '95; the A448 standard was used for this performance.
