It has been more than a week since a 20-year-old college student called her friends at a Metallica concert to say she was outside the arena and would find her own way home. Now the famed heavy-metal rockers are participating in the search for her, adding $50,000 to the reward for information leading to her whereabouts.

While investigators attempt to discover what happened to a young woman described as open, beautiful, artistic and giving, Morgan Harrington’s parents, Dan and Gil Harrington, have been keeping a high public profile, trying to focus attention on the disappearance.

“One word that comes to mind when you think of Morgan is ‘shiny,’ ” Morgan’s mother, Gil Harrington told TODAY’s Amy Robach during a recent interview. “She was beautiful and she was beautiful inside, too. She radiated life.”

Metallica is trying to find her.

Oh God, now my friend won't shut up about this. She's obsessed with Metallica and talks about them 24/7. Once she finds out about this she'll be constantly saying how great they are for helping out in the search. UGH!

Anyways, it is great how they are helping out in the search. I really hope they can find her. There's some really sick people out there.
