Metallica bassist Robert Trujillo recently commented that plans were on the table, although nothing firm had been arranged, while members the three other acts made positive noises about the idea.

However, Hammett now states no such tour will take place, and his words have the sound of permanence about them. "That tour is not gonna happen. I've been hearing that. We've all been hearing it for a while. I get asked regularly. It's a good idea and I can see the significance of playing a tour like that." He says. "There's conflicting schedules, conflicting personalities - a lot of conflicting things. It's not gonna happen."

Update: We were informed that the quotes from Kirk Hammett that Rock Radio used in their report came from an interview with WKLS Project 9-6-1 Morning Show with El Jefe and Shaffee. You can check out the interview on Shaffee's blog here
