[QUOTE=PepsiMetal]If that mooch was any smart, he could just go ahead and download any song/album/etc. he wants without begging. :lol:[/QUOTE]

Maybe he has dial-up like me :upset: in which case it would be easier to borrow/buy the albums.

oh man i hate dial up... it was awful when i had kazaa. but i got rid of kazaa and got dsl :D

Ya i hate it with a passion but unfortunately there's nothing i can do about it because dsl isn't available in our area yet for some reason :angry:

Oh I don't think this topic has been discussed. What is your favorite riff? Not like the whole song, like a few seconds of guitar or bass or drums. My favorite would have to be the seconds and solo right after the main solo in Sanitarium

100th post! :D

[QUOTE=Tallica666]What is your favorite riff?[/QUOTE]
Tough one, if I gave it some more thought I'd probably think of something different but I love the beginning part to RTL.

I'm going to go with fade to black. directly before the last solo. o and congrats to tallica666 on his 100th

favorite riff again?

[QUOTE=leppermessiah]:confused: for what??![/QUOTE]
Earlier there was this game thread in the pit started by a mod. The rules were that you could spam the thread as much as you wanted, but if your spam post arrived within 2 mins after the mods random posts you got banned. It was really fun, I had 2 accounts banned thanks to that game.

Does anyone know if Metallica ever played To Live Is To Die live before?

I think they played part of it on one of the Live Sh*t DVD's.

[QUOTE=cheeb]The Puppets solo aint that hard: infact its probably one of Kirks easyest.[/QUOTE]
are you kidding?

[QUOTE=Darkness Of Greed]Does anyone know if Metallica ever played To Live Is To Die live before?[/QUOTE]
i don't think they ever have. i'm watching live sh*t now

[QUOTE=willis2441]are you kidding?[/QUOTE]
either he's kidding or can't play it right

[QUOTE=gocaps99]either he's kidding or can't play it right[/QUOTE]
123 yea,stupid noob

right before puppets, first dvd, they play some of to live or to die

"You know a band is great, when they can play slow, and still blow you the **** away with talent."

Ok, unfortunately, i just registered, and don't have time to look through 638 pages of posts, but i will put my two cents in. Metallica - Greatest band, EVER. Who else do you know can make every generation go crazy for them? My grandmother, at 72 or so, listens to Metallica - Black Album, and loves it. I gave her a CD of a few hits, S&D, nothing else matters, master of puppets, sanitairum, etc..., haven't heard from her in about a week since then.

I think everyone's problem with St. Anger is that they used non-standard tuning. I haven't even tried playing any St. Anger songs, I'd much rather play standard tuning songs, because they just plain sound better. Sad But True, one full step down tuning, was a great song, and it's still a great song, with non-standard tuning, so maybe that's not everyone's problem. I heard Frantic in concert a few months ago, and I'll tell you, it ****cken rocked, and so did Sad But True, I personally don't mid the different tuning.

Now, for S&M, has anyone actually sat down, and listened to this CD all the way through? It's a collection of alot of Metallica's greatest songs, but with extra talent in the background. James - Best metal voice in music. Lars - One of the best drummers Iv'e heard. Kirk - I don't give a **** who their original guitarist was, he plays the solos live just as good as I heard on the CD. Rob - Yeah, he was recruited after a long time, but who cares? Would Metallica recruit a bassist that wasn't the best available. (The YES bassist is already taken unforunately.) And this dude can play, when I saw him in concert, he soloed with a distorted bass, and he was ****en jammin'.

Lastly.... how many bands try to imitate them? I realize that classic rock band to ever play set the stage for Metallica, and other 80's bands, but they just have such a unique sound. I was driving, and "The Hunter of Sorrow" came on. I'd never heard it, but I heard the first few notes, and I was like, METALLICA. Then I heard Jame's voice to confirm it. "Often imitated, never duplicated." How many new bands were at the T.V. Metallica Ultimate Tribute? They idolize this band. Even Linkin Park, Korn, and Blink182 were there, and they sound nothing like them, but their who they listen to when they were my age. (Yeah I'm only 15.) Godsmack, System of a Down, Tool, sound like Metallica, but not quite the same.

For the greatest songs Iv'e heard, I would have to say...

Enter Sandman (the song that got me into Metallica.)
Master of PUppets (the song i hated for a year, then liked it for some reason...)
One (no explanation needed, that last "Darkness, imprisoning me... part is just insane though.)
Ride the Lightning (the hardest solo Iv'e ever heard, even my guitar instructor was dumbfounded by it.)
Wherever I May Roam (this started me off with my guitar, I was only playing intro's until I heard this song.)

I'm also curious, how many people here have seen them live?

great post noob! and yes your exactly right about new bands

and my fav is fade to black

and i saw them live this last tour, it was amazing

ok, adios. yo veo un DVD de Metallica llama "Live Sh*T." Yo volvere en (awhile)

i think that means i am watching a metallica dvd called live ****. i will return in awhile...
(im practicin spanish, tests comin up)

hunter of sorrow? havent heard that one lately :)

nah havent seem em live, gotta travel to the mainland when they come to australia :(

@hammet-AH, not hunter of sorrow, harvester of sorrow. just a rookie mistache lol. you definetly need to see them though. hopefully they'll tour again some time soon, they hadn't come to south florida for about five years, and there was no way i was gonna miss them.

heh lol

we are so disadvantaged down here in tas cos its a 400 dollar plane trip over to melbourne beofre you even get in

I've seen them live in 04. Best ****in show ever. I still can't belive i got to see my favorite band at the age of 11. My favorite song live was master of puppets

My problem with St Anger was that it sucked, not the different tuning. I listen to plenty of bands that don't play in Standard E and it doesn't bother me.

nah they wont come back here until at least 2007 after they do the new album
so i hope they do the big day out then cos it would kick a lot of ***, the line up with them the other year was awesome, like Muse and shiit

My favorite riff on guitar would probably be right before the Fade to Black solo; bass (since I am a bassist :x) is either the intro to Bells or the intro to My Friend of Misery
