  • Metallica cover band in Butte, Montana at the main stage of Evel Knievel Days
    I filmed this for my entertainment and memories. I do not claim any of the music in the video, I am not affiliated in any way with the band. I do not want any monetary gain from this video. I just enjoying having these up to rewatch every couple years :)

    These guys had their gear stolen (similar to when Metallica had theirs stolen, then James wrote Fade to Black), and Metallica bought them new equipment, when they heard about it.

      Yup. True story. A rep from Metallica contacted the band and requested a list of everything stoln. They replaced everything. Even their van was gone, too. Say what you will about Lars, but he personally reached out to the band to let them know help is on the way.
