I was well aware of their primadonna attitudes previous to viewing that Doc. Lars Ulrich is the biggest baby on the planet. I enjoyed the Doc to a certain point. When they got into therapy it made the Doc almost unwatchable. Rob Trujillo and Kirk Hammett I still respect, although Kirk Hammett came across as a pushover and soft.

Did you not think that Dave didn't really come off much better in that doc though?

I liked aspects of the film. In some ways it was a good period in time to capture, what with Newsted leaving and then the auditions for a new bass player. There was footage from that tiny intimate gig with Bob Rock filling in on bass which is interesting to capture on film also.

But of course it was the St. Anger era. The only thing worse than listening to that ****ing record is seeing and hearing it throughout it's making and recording. The therapy sessions I have to say were a little sad to see as well. I suppose theres logic to it and you could argue it isn't such a bad thing if they really feel they need it but it just never looks as though it's acheiving anything.

Lars Ulrich is a baby, I agree (although I've always found the backlash to his objections to Napster to be totally pathetic. It's his music people. He owns it. The ability to download something for free these days is a privelidge, not a right). James is a baby too. Kirk just doesn't look as though he has any desire to involve himself in their bull**** or rise to the arguments....unless your Lars and mention there's gonna be no guitar solo's in the new album because they are "out dated".

Metallica didn't come off well at all in the film, but did Dave Mustaine? All I see is a crying, bitter baby who still has a damn chip on his shoulder all these years later about being kicked out of Metallica ("People still come up to me and shout "METALLICA!" and I know it isn't a compliment") or however exactly he worded it like Metallica completely ruined his life and shattered his dreams. Dave Mustaine, the man who went on to form arguably Metallica's biggest competition and did exceptionally well for himself.

Yeah I really hate Hetfield. Them as people I'm totally indifferent on, because we never gonna kick it, why should I give a ****?

If Metallica was an instrumental band, I'd dig them a lot more. They have some right masterpieces when James has to sit in the corner.

I think I saw part of it. All I remember is the satanic falcon though haha. We have two kites, one an eagle and one a falcon, and the falcon's name was based off that doc.

I think that Radiohead is one that gets too much hate. It get's too much credit at the same time. Both sides need to chill. I was watching Clueless the other day and Cher made fun of Josh playing depressing music by Radiohead. I laughed.

I constantly rotate between old and new, and between different genres this way it sounds new and exciting after not hearing it for a while.

Modern mainstream folk music (Mumford & Sons, The Lumineers, etc). I don't know why, but none of it sounds like genuine folk, but instead something people latch onto because it's different from the typical Top 40, but accessible enough for the tween crowd.

If you want real folk, listen to Gordon Lightfoot. Now that had soul.

The Batlord

That's not at all irrational, as Mumford and Sons need to take a long walk off a short volcano.
