    Kirk looks AT Rob in genuine awe like he's genuinely worried that he's not as talented!!! And part of that riff definitely has been used on the most recent album on All Nightmare Long!!!

    I saw Robert Trujillo play a bass solo with Metallica in 2004 and it blew me away. He was spinning in circles so fast like he was on a super fast carousel and playing at the same time. Didn't miss a beat.
