My friend Matt from the boards was coming down from Jersey to see the show. He hadn’t seen them since the Newark shows, so he was long overdue. There was torrents of rain pouring down all across New England so he took an extra hour trying to get to my apartment in DC. Al came over and waited for him with me. We had spent the ENTIRE night working on our posters. We did it double-sided like I did for my Newark shows. One side was for Gojira and the other was for Metallica. Gojira didn’t have a whole lot of love this tour, especially this night in Charlottesville, so we wanted to give them some support. His posters I thought were better than mine. This was his for Gojira and Metallica: The last poster is an inside joke from the Metclub via the Metallitubbies, a video that Adam Dubin from the Year and a Half film made for the guys the night before the RNR HOF. I thought it was well done. I made my Metallica after he left. I spent an hour mulling over ideas that I thought would take too much effort yet were so amazingly brilliant. So I came up with these posters: Close to 11, Matt texts me saying he’s close to my area, only ten minutes away. I am looking at my Metallica poster and I’m like, “Something is totally missing. This is not complete. I NEED PHOTOS.” So I scramble through my stash of Lars photos, which by the way was fucking insanity because I have over 10K of them and they are not organized by era/show/year/hairline/expression yet, so it was a bitch and a half. I gave up after three minutes searching and went for what I could remember. Blabbermouth had an interview of Lars up on the website with this great photo from 2006 him in his hat pointing at the camera. So I used that one. And then I used my magazine cut out of him from Q Magazine (I bought two copies haha) where he is reclining in his private jet, haha. This is the updated version: I thought it was cute and simple yet not very creative. But it didn’t matter because it was done and Matt was two minutes away from the apartment. Time to go!

Margaret Priebe is 85 years old…and a huge Metallica fan!!! She’s going to the show on Oct. 3 with her son, Jim Priebe. While Margaret was fighting cancer – and getting chemo – she’d stay up late and listen to Metallica on her MP3 player, especially the band’s live recording with the San Francisco Symphony Orchestra. She says the heavy metal band got her through the tough times. “I always liked rock music,” Priebe said. “I love drums, and I like the way they play.”
