i think i'll always like them, once i like a band i always will, unless i go off them

I honestly couldn't say. I like them at the moment, but I'm always investigating new bands/sounds so I might find one that totally obliterates Metallica from my conscienceness.

Tangentially - this is the argument for why physical music rocks - with CDs you can go back in years to come and see what you liked when you were younger. So, say if I stop Liking them, I can put on MOP when I'm 40 and think... 'yeah I remember this - it was good'

*sniff

WHAT? No I've just got something in my eye, leave me alone.

*hugs teddy bear

I'm glad you enjoyed it :thumb:

yea,

the other day i was in the car with my dad and we were driving to get some food and i but on my new black sabbath CD (symptom of the universe) and my dad said he wanted to borrow my sabbath CD because it brought back memories of him in high school when all his friends would sing along to faeries wear boots etc.

I love it when my dad regails me with stories of seeing Thin Lizzy in their prime

[QUOTE=Mister_Che]Well, I come from a family of musicians, so I picked up the guitar and bass pretty quickly. Technical wise, I don't know much about scales and modes. But sit a tab down in front of me and I can nail most of it in a week. I'm no Eddie Van Halen, but I am at least good enough o play most of Metallica's stuff.






Just not all of their solo's. :D[/QUOTE]

Good for you, man. I learned pretty much every Metallica song when I first started out, and now, it's not that I'm not able to play their solos-I can bust out leads OK-I just choose not to because I'm a lazy bastard.

RIP DARRELL

This is unbelievable. To sit here and talk about Darrell in the past tense seems so wrong, so unfair, so unjust, I don't even know what to say. My heart goes out to Vinnie, to their families, to the other band members, and to the families and friends of the other people that were killed or injured, in this ****ing senseless act of selfishness and stupidity.

In 1985 I was fortunate enough to meet both Darrell and his brother in Dallas on tour. The first thing me and my friend did as soon as that tour was over, was to head straight back to Dallas and hang out with Darrell and Vinnie for a long time, cuz they were the coolest muther ****ers that we had met after criss-crossing the states for three months. That was the beginning of a friendship that was anchored in love, respect, fun, outrageousness, music, booze, sweat, late nights, early mornings, hangovers, headaches, pounding eardrums, sore bodies... the list goes on.

There's a tendency in these ****ed up moments to use the word "I" a lot and focus on one's own feelings of pity and shock... so instead let it just be known that thru these eyes Darrell was incredibly warm, open, fun, nutty, forthcoming, talented, embracing, unpretentious, accommodating and he always had a very attractive innocence about him that obviously made him never threatening and always welcoming.

Darrell and his brother were the cornerstone of musical adventures that were always groundbreaking, pushing boundaries, challenging to themselves and to their fans, respected by their peers and always true musicians' musicians, and today the rock world is worse off because of this untimely and senseless waste.

Much love and respect and thanks for letting me be a small part of your life and I know you are already having fun and throwing it down with Bon Scott, Keith Moon, John Bonham, Jimi, Cliff B., and the rest of the musicians and troublemakers that you are hanging with so prematurely.

I used to play alot of Metallica on guitar, then I realised that they were the basic extent of my repotire(sp?) so I started learning other stuff.

i'm browsing Metallica tabs, i fancy learning Escape

Escape's a good song to learn. Anything from Ride the Lightning and Kill Em All are fun to play.

He didn't mention Randy. :(

But it was very thoughtful of him nonetheless.

great song indeed! usually gets over looked by fade to black fight fire with fire etc. but it is a great song on that album

Pretty much any Metallica song is based on pentatonics.
