she plays the solo too, though it's a bit diff than Hammett's, though some of it she lifts note for note.

Miley’s Nothing Else Matters is fine, thought it’s pretty much a perfect power ballad for her without any substantial changes. The Juanes Enter Sandman is pointless.
The Jason Isbell Sad But True isn’t great but at least tries to do something a little different with the source material.

guess who else is doing a cover of "Nothing Else Matters"? why, it's none other than TRESOR, the Congolese-South African singer with the heavenly voice!

Kamasi Washington and band (large band — Thundercat's there, two extra percussionists, extra vocalists, etc.) debuted their version of "My Friend of Misery" at the Hollywood Bowl, with Kirk Hammett and Rob Trujillo sitting in.

Can’t make out who the other 2 player characters are but I don’t think they’re cliff or Dave. Too bad
― calstars, Saturday, 27 November 2021 21:02 (two years ago) link
The treasure chest is a snare drum. ? is a computer, possibly left over from Kraftwerk Clue.
https://www.metalsucks.net/2021/11/24/metallica-make-clue-now/
Something else I’m overthinking: because Clue requires six characters and there are only four members of Metallica — dubbed Papa Het, Duder, Mr. Ripper, and Dr. Groove for the game — two completely random dudes have been added into the mix. One is “The Engineer,” who I assume is an engineer, and the other is “Col. William,” who… uh… I have no fucking idea who he’s supposed to be.
― peace, man, Sunday, 28 November 2021 00:22 (two years ago) link
“Engineer” and “Col. William” is so Metallica tho
― calstars, Sunday, 28 November 2021 00:32 (two years ago) link
Should have made Peter Mensch and his batshit crazy anti-vax conspiracy theorist wife the other two characters.

yeah, cool. Don't have Prime though, we'll see if they sell it somewhere else later on or something - https://www.setlist.fm/setlist/metallica/2021/chase-center-san-francisco-ca-1b8b35d4.html

I think it was available for viewing to anyone regardless of whether you're a Prime member or not. They're streaming the show tomorrow too FYI
― DT, Sunday, 19 December 2021 06:42 (two years ago) link
I only caught the first half of the Friday show, but those early deep cuts were really nice surprises. "Trapped Under Ice" especially.
Both shows will be repeated on Prime soon, the latest release says.
― A. Begrand, Sunday, 19 December 2021 20:13 (two years ago) link
Tonight's show was a bit underwhelming. Still cool to hear some choice Load cuts and a deep St. Anger cut

I'm waiting for the moment where he lets the veil drop and he starts blaming people for songs/albums he supposedly retroactively doesn't like anymore, on stage.
"here's a piece of shit called King Nothing, which I wasn't gonna play but Kirk begged me to use one of his songs"

Wow. I admit that I've always had the hardest time feeling the beat in the right place on Fight Fire with Fire, it's so fast and something about that riff with the accents on the upbeats, I always hear it flipped:

I also I was listening to an interview with Nate Wood, a ridiculous jazz drummer/bassist/guitarist and a true musician's musicians, and it was very satisfying to hear him express his unabashed Lars love.
