(Classic Rock) Kirk Hammett believes Metallica can keep performing into their 70s. The guitarist says that if the Rolling Stones can do it, there's no reason the thrash icons can't follow suit.

Hammett, 52, tells 103.3 The Edge: "We're all getting up there, but we still have drive, we still have energy, we're still inspired, we still have things that we wanna do. Mentally, emotionally - I think that we're not done yet.

"And if people like Keith Richards and Mick Jagger can do it into their 70s, why can't we? That's my attitude. And on a personal level, I'm a musician. I wanna continue to play and perform and do what I do, which is make music. I don't wanna stop doing this. I don't wanna stop making music. I will always be a working musician, until I can't be anymore." Read more here.
