to Induct Sabbath |
SMN reports: METALLICA have released the following
update:
"So there we are, hanging out at HQ getting
ready for our first visit to South Africa, and a call comes in wondering
if we can leave a few days early and stop by New York to induct a bunch
of guys from Birmingham, England (they're called BLACK SABBATH, you might've
heard of them) into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. It took us all of 3/4
of a second to say "fuck yeah!!" Not only will we be inducting SABBATH,
we are going to make a humble attempt at playing some of their songs live
in front of the gathered masses, including, most humbling of all, the four
members of the band themselves. [see full story for more]-
