The most Hetfield photo I've ever seen. Dude is such an icon with the cigar in his mouth
They played Call of Ktulu in Denver and James had a cigar puffing away while he was playing. He’s also been on the cover of cigar magazines.
Same in Santa Clara.
I was pointing that out to my buddies during the show, it was iconic and awesome
Imagine downstroke chugging like he does whilest smoking. Crazy. Being his age as well. Total icon.
Yeah I remember lol I was there
Blackened M81 cigars are great.
Im so bummed they are so hard to get in Europe!
👆This!!
What a Legend
That man is my forever rolemodel. He is the definition of cool to me
Somehow, I never noticed he had RIFF LORD tattooed on his fingers haha
It's "RIFF LIFE"
🤘🏻🤘🏻
It is wonderful.
James farmed so many aura in Back to beginning tour, damnnn 🔥
I've always hated cigars, cigarettes, and the act of smoking, the smoke and the stench of it. But if it makes him happy let him have it. He's done everything and been through bad and good times. It's time to chill and look back at what he built. For the people worried about his health. He is an old man, not a kid. He surely goes to the doctor, I think he can afford good doctors. He knows the risks and accepted them. So he does not need anyone babying him.
Hes a 60 yr old man who has given up every vice hes had. If its something he enjoys thats not hurting him that let's let him have it.
not sure about the not hurting part but who cares. He can afford doctors and all.
Generally people don't inhale cigar smoke so it's easier on the lungs. Still not great for the mouth though. Either way like you said he can afford good doctors.
My mother and grandmother have Emphysema bc of cigarrettes and my grandfather died of Emphysema bc he smoked cigars, they were not there inhaling smoke to fuck themselves, it just happens if you do it too much. I know if something like that is harmful or not, I've seen it.
But like I said, who cares? he is rich and is old enough for us to be advising him, he can do whatever he wants, not all bodies react the same to the same things. There's also people who lives for a long time smoking cigars without consequences in the short term. Cigarrettes are a different story, it always fucks you up. So I'm glad he's not abusing cigarrettes at least.
Great photo of James 🤘
That’s why he’s the GOAT
He stay looking cool like he is and he doubles down and smokes cigars. Classic James hetfeild
The Riff Lord can do no wrong.
Sabra cabara cover is one of the best 🤘
I don’t like him smoking and promoting it.
I’ll let him know.
Quite late to be mad about it, him and Kirk are smoking cigars since at least 1996
It's ok when Ozzy dose it.
Doesnt that damage his voice?
sure, but he is an old guy and got everything he wanted from it. if he wants to die of this, just let him, he's done it all.
Thats my thing. I've seen alot of negativity about his cigar smoking but at this point in his life if he enjoys it, just let him have it.
What would people say if it was weed? Would that be OK for his health?

you’re clearly new, he’s always smoked
Hey kid! Stop smoking at the drum set!!!
... ... ... James? It's you. Carry on, good sir!
