I think we should have a project.
Call it "Project: Fuck Metallica"
We will go through CDs of old music, from before Metallica was around, and find similiar things. Then we will take them to court.

next they will be suing people for using guitar solos in their songs - because WE ALL KNOW that metallica was the first to use guitar solos - just like the E and F chords

to quote someone from another message board:
"On behalf of the estate of Johann Sebastian Bach, I am suing both Metallica and unfaith for using a 12-tone scale to create their music.
My client's innovations were a profound step forward from the near-monotony (in the literal sense of one tone) of Gregorian Chants (all rights reserved by the estate of Pope Gregory).
To prevent confusion and stem a potential tide of further litigation, we have obtained the licensing rights to the concept of "music" from the collective estates of the Cave People who used to rhythmically bang rocks together."

yeah, that's pretty bad if it's true... however, I can understand them sueing napster and such... I would to if I was in their position... basically, napster provided and easy way for people to steal their music... if it was my music, and I paid loads of money to make it, I wouldn't like it either...

oh yes....a chord change from E to F is so genius, only Metallica could have thought of this. If this is true then I bet they've done this because so many songs have an E chord followed by and F chord.
Now I am speechless...

lol, it just speaks volumes that people, (included myself) believed this for a little bit
I mean, after it's all said and done, it didn't strike me as IMPOSSIBLE for Metallica to do something so selfish.
I bet you 100 to 1 that lars comes back and sues this website for defamation of name, etc.
THAT would be too funny.

James reminds me of the warehouse manager at one of my clients. He doesn't seem like someone who'd be famous.
Lars on the other hand reminds me of the Gabor sisters or Ivana trump - plain old nasty. I wouldn't want to be a clerk waiting on Lars.

Lars has never come into the store, but when James does, he is always patient and polite, just like any other customer.

why even bother to discuss something that is already dead and halfways buried, i.e metallica.. they do retarded things all the time; like releasing albums for instance.. how silly is that?
I'm not gonna waste another keystroke in a metallica-related thread; they're a bunch of silly old chaps, who should have called it quits, when cliff the spliff got bus-whacked back in '86
