A Metallica Fan with nothing better to do
with $23 thousand dollars has won the privilege of joining Metallica for
one day in the recording studio, according to a report by CMJ.
The day in the recording studio was a focus
of a recent eBay auction from Metallica. The winning bidder came out on
top with a bid of $23,200. The unnamed winner of the auction will have
the opportunity to hang out with Metallica in the record studio as they
work on their new studio album.
According to the CMJ report, the proceeds
from the auction will go to the T.J. Martell Foundation, which according
to their website uses donations to further cutting-edge research that
will advance the treatment and cures of leukemia, cancer and AIDS.
Whos next? Some of the people that Gene
Simmons despises the most, Internet fans, are speculating that KISS is
contemplating auctioning off a private concert with proceeds going to the
grease painted rockers favorite charity, the Gene Simmons Retirement
Fund, which is apparently is under funded, causing Gene and Paul to call
off their retirement plans after bilking fans with their farewell tour.
