I stumbled across this the other night and was reminded of fond memories...



I vividly remember purchasing this on VHS, faking sickness to stay home from school to watch, and being blown away by their showmanship and all that. No, I don’t care if you don’t like Metallica; they were my heroes in middle school.

Anyway, the first 30 seconds of the above video is why I chose to pick up an instrument. Newsted’s solo and work with Hammett in the video below solidified the fact that it would be bass. When I was able to do that wah work and mimic the solo, I felt I had made it through some rite of passage.



Also, that Sadowsky PJ drooldrooldrooldrool
