James has Taken my kit Taken my tom Taken my kick drum Taken my snare Taken my ride Taken my crash Left me with a cowbell and a chair

[@ericramirez-navarro9674]

Love it 😂😂😂

Hetfield has taken my set, taken my snare, and left it with good sound. Hell!!!

[@anthonylopez9823]

James plays the one breakdown better than Lars does now

[@Fister_of_Muppets]

James has overall better timing... but in all fairness, one thing (and maybe one of the only things) that Lars is actually very good at is octuple bass drum hits.

[@sancamilobad]

Nope

[@VBshredder]

Nah. Yes Lars slips up in some parts (as do the other guys - see the covid charity broadcast)) but the machine gun part in One isn't usually one of em.

[@jamesestrada82]

@Anthony Lopez, don’t be a fool...

[@SonOfANurse]

I know it's kinda unusual to see and it's cool in general but let's be honest that his machine gun double bass part is sloppy

[@x8nis]

love how chill and relaxed this vid is. it's almost like they're watching Metallica just rehearse and dick around instead of just playing an actual concert. I dig it

[@jyejye1077]

Wow Kirk was really the only one who wasnt phased by the 8 count and even mocked James by playing on the 4 again ahahah

[@thathandleistakentrythisone]

James should put on his guitar, strap a drumset to himself and just be a 1-man band already.

[@lautarothepro420]

it would sound like the and justice for all

[@roncriswell2685]

A drummer that wanted to be a guitar player and a guitar player that wanted to be a drummer, and now we have Metallica....... the O.G American Thrash metal band\m/

[@dmckyle]

Fck, this song drives me insane every time i tune in . . . this is my 4th playback in the last few minutes and im still tripping on it

[@igortokarski9517]

That's my favourite instrumental song from Metallica!! Such a shame they've performed it only twice!!!!!

[@FotherMucker00]

*yeah it's a pretty decent instrumental. especially comes to life at a live show when the audience sings along to the melody (doesn't quiet translate on video- have to be there)*

[@jesswise8680]

@@FotherMucker00 I love Orion though, such an amazing song

[@Harvie82]

Lars was holding up the show talking to his son in the Metallica 'Friend's and Family' room - which I was lucky enough to be in that night. Yeah, I wouldn't believe me either - but it's true. Cheers!

[@jord9261]

Nice little back story!!!

[@Joy2Rode]

Do you know if the drums were overdubbed? If you look at 7:41 to 7:46 there's a time where you hear a cymbal hit and a time where you hear a snare hit and lars isn't playing either of them. Can you confirm this please? This is driving me nuts.

[@FotherMucker00]

Interesting seeing James giving the band cues to all the changes and looks at them like “hey get ready.”

[@jero6057]

when u are the best guitarist and drummer of the band

[@cyorneon]

Doubtless And with the best stage presence

[@filipkocis3351]

Lars is a lot better than him face it. But i agree that he's the best guitarist of the band (I still love the bluesy rock-'n'-roll-ish style of Kirk Hammett but he's no very technical nowadays.)

[@lassala]

Woah... this happened almost 10 years ago, and that just reminded me Metallica is turning 40 this year... damn...

[@modev4163]

You can see James improved from the 80s

[@crawlinger1]

3:08 Lars calls Avi to turn up the cooling fans, 'cause it's too hot on stage. Few years later, Avi will sing with Metallica on stage as the back-vocalist. That's the career! 😁

James did this way back in 1990...whatever during the "year and a half in the life of Metallica" era. He and Lars also had a drum battle. I still have it on vhs lol

Holy hell, with a little bit of practice he might actually make a decent drummer. Edit: I'm talking about James.... obviously.

[@oliverdahlberg838]

Funny how you had to make sure everyone knows you're talking about James

[@m.c.ruckus2032]

Funny how Lars compliments his stagehand "Avi" as, "the hardest working man in the business" in the same breath of asking him to turn the air on back there because the premadonna drummer is a little warm behind the drum kit - poor pampered little baby is such a high maintence princess. God forbid if he should break a sweat on his royal forehead & brow! 😖🌊🌈

[@kukelhupf]

@@m.c.ruckus2032 To be fair, as a drummer myself you do tend to sweat quite a lot, especially on stage with all those lights acting as heatguns.

[@m.c.ruckus2032]

@@kukelhupf that is fair. I too am quite familiar with the heat projected along with stage lighting. It's just that most in the live performance line of work don't choose to take the moment to register the compliant publicly while on stage DURING a performance that they are carelessly appearing late to. All eyes were already on him, because of that very reason. He's obviously a very special kind of musician & shouldn't be exposed to such abusive & unfair work conditions. He ought to report this to his local union representative! -lol- 😂

[@JoshCartman]

Are you SURE you're talking about James? I mean, with a little practice, Lars might be just as good as James! 😆

[@fatjesus2618]

I think the first was better btw. Have they played it again since then? That was quite a while ago.

[@austinkash]

Love how even a band as big as big as Metallica messes up like that

[@MKDumas1981]

It's an extremely tricky intro. Rob is the only one consistentpy playing, so the other three have to know where to come in, and it's super-syncopated. That's how you know it's live.
