I wish Lars did more vocals. He has that punk aggression to him.

Yeah. Lars also sang a bit of "Am I Evil?" on the Making of Load/Reload documentary.

Honesty - just thinking how I would love to see him as a front man

He sings at least a verse or 2 on one of those Ramones covers they did. Definitely has that punk thing you're talking about!

That's a total and complete lie.

It is a joke, and it isn't even about metallica. The origin of this joke it was with Jhon Lennon saying this about Ringo Star. And that is also false, there is no evidence of that.

Stop spreading lies.

Completely irrelevant, but it's absolutely wild to me how often I see the name "John" misspelled as "Jhon".

The first time I saw it I thought it was just some fat fingering, but it's super, super common.

I am fairly positive that I've heard an interview where he said it ... and yes, it's a callback to John on Ringo.

Nobody.

It was a joke about Lenon answering something like "Is Ringo the best drummer in the world?". Then a lot of people have used that in different context, including Metallica jokes.

And Lenon saying that about Ringo is also a lie.

Lars could honestly be the vocalist. Maybe not of Metallica but definitely a punk band.

James played the drums in Spastik Children. Kirk played bass after Cliff died. Jim "Faith No More" Martin on guitar and Fred Rotten Cotton on vocals. Funny band. James is a pretty good drummer. πŸ₯ (probably makes Lars jealous 😁)

It would be interesting, in an alternate universe, to hear how James would have played the drums for their songs.

I'd love to see them do one of these one off things sometime. Be cool if they'd come up with something fun to do at each show, that was different. Guess they do that wit hthe Kirk/Rob doodles now, but this would've been pretty fuckin wild to see in person, right?

Getting them all playing drums during one of the Hardwired songs a few years back was kinda Spinal Tap-like, but they did it at every show
