I was born in 79 so missed much of the birth of this era. But am super glad my older brothers got me into metal. Now at 44, I've passed the torch onto my two teenagers. Rock on my brothers and sisters and kids alike!!!!!!!
I was born in 65 grew up in Freemont and Milpitas but in 75 at a k-mart I seen KISS ALIVE 1 and it was on in the bay area there was a magazine named BAM I saved the one with Y&T on the cover but inside there was a advertisement for THE STONE and THE KEYSTONE in palo alto and playing there was Metallica with Dave Mustane and the last time at the KEYSTONE in palo alto was 97 and the original members of UFO that was great seeing them in a small club Micheal Schenker smoked just recently my daughters got me a cool shirt that says "I might be old but I got see all the cool bands" btw in 79 was probably the last time I got a haircut the same year I started playing guitar after a Halloween show with SAMMY HAGAR at the old San Jose civic auditorium that was my second concert that year the first was KISS at the cowpalace in SF btw the radio shows I listened to on KSJO and KOME and remember "Metal Monday's" the 80s were a great time to graduate from high school and turn 21 in 85 but it sounds like your brother got you on the right track btw I still play guitar and bought my first Gibson les paul as a retirement gift to myself anyway this was my introduction into ROCK music so KEEP ROCKIN 🎸 and have a good day
Comments before me is true but I will say he doesn't get nearly enough credit though. Not as much as he should! I don't think Metallica has been the same since he was fired.
When Kirk talks about being bored in east bay or whatever it sounds like me being in my teens and 20s trying to play in bands in fuckin Iowa... nothing else fun to do..
Far away from the city , isolated , nothing to do ? I wonder what they'd think of growing up where I live ? At least they had the ocean , surfing , skateboarding !
I was at that Day On the Green show in 85 and the 89 Monsters of Rock show at Candlestick Park in San Francisco those started at 10am until 11pm man I had a ROCKIN GREAT TIME in the 80s what a blast but everywhere I went it would snow that wasn't on the weather report lol idk if anyone slept for a decade I'd go to work so I could recover from the weekend 😊

Rock took over as bassist for the album st Angry and in 2001 Robert was able to finish recording that album in 2003 he recorded three albums with Metallica for the first time ever in twenty one years Death Magnetic in 2008 and Hardwired To Self Destruct in 2016 in 72 Seasons in 2023 which was last year.
50:21......one of the most beautiful places in the USA....Yosemite.....METAL UP YOUR ASS!!!.seriously though, if you're ever in California, go to Yosemite.
Can see why Dave always been bitter. That whole scene back then loved Metallica and they got a great push cause of the music with Dave in the band. So recording kill em All either way Kirk never mattered. It was heard on the demo and at shows what ended up being kill em All. So the fans loved Metallica for what they were with Dave. They got known and introduced to the right people when Dave was there with Dave’s music. Kirk played on kill em All but it wasn’t his music. Even Kirk watched Metallica play and thought they were great with Dave in the band. James at first didn’t even play guitar at the shows. Point being that whole buzz was with Dave before Cliff and with Cliff but without Kirk. People love to say Dave did nothing for Metallica and who they are today. Of course he did. This is the scene that put Metallica on the map from The Bay Area to New York. Every band thought Metallica with Dave was great. Die hard fans followed Metallica cause what they heard before Kirk. They maintained fans after the fact. But without Dave back then it would have all just been a dream of Lars. That’s all. Honestly not sure why he wasn’t part of the induction at the rock and roll hall of fame for Metallica. He was a key part. No matter how much James and Lars wants to downplay his role. And trust me they have been since he’s been kicked out
Con este documental, me hace pensar que Mustaine pudo haber sido echado de Metallica por envidia… al parecer era el que tenía más presencia, inclusive más que Hetfield… eso pudo despertar celos para que hiciera lo mínimo para echarlo…
