I love how kirk goes "hi im kirk" as if they dont know his name.
Max Adams ...and James goes "I'm Lars.." 😂😂
more a sign of humbleness and manners, which is fantastic for such a superstar
psteeg yeah
Hes humble
what he was suppose to do ? .........
James has a great sense of humor.
I absolutely love it, he doesn't even try and I'm laughing like a baby :D
come on! only 2.56 minutes??? we need more!
Agreed!!
Seriously, what a tease!
yeah, why?
For sure!
We always want more man 🤘🇦🇺
"Hello. im Lars!" 😂😂😂😂
Also, "Here's where i write all my heavy songs" :D I love James so much, he's such a goof
Who's that 😂😂
I would literally have a million questions to ask James and Kirk
That's why you weren't invited.
@@lilithtt Mr.Reply to a relatively redundant 2 year old comment, damn let the stick fall out of your ass dude. I certainly wouldn't act like a crazy fan ready to explode. I've been a fan for 23 years and I'd like to ask questions NO ONE ASKS, and they never have enough time or the dynamics of the conversation is off. They are legends. Kirk and James have alot to share.
@@Paranoid_Alchemist it was just a joke :)
@@lilithtt hahahahhahaha
So easy to look up to James. You can see why he's the leader.
.. Such effortless leadership!
i never get tired of kirk, he's a total dork and goofball, totally unashamed of it. He looks like he'd be super fun to hangout with
Man I'd love to visit the HQ one day! This is like a Metallica museum and a guitar heaven!
i'm sure it will turn into one once they're gone
Dude, I'd punch a baby chicken to go there and meet Hetfield and the rest but James is deep.
I wouldn't like to go because I know if I did go I'd never want to leave.
Kaosware - Hell yeah, man.
Kaosware I had the pleasure of touring HQ. The creative energy in there is amazing
This should have been a 2 hr segment.
Two hours of gay? Not thx
@@turtleneckferret what?
@@turtleneckferret Is that you, Dave?
Hahahah Hetfield playing Enter Sandman on the piano
Hey they can start playing it like that at show.
@@albertochavez8788 pussy
i nearly choked on my gum when he did that. 🤣
It would be something good to make the crowd laugh at show beginning then after say oh did you want something heavier?,then Metallica gives you heavier BAYY BEHH !!! Then lights the stadium up with the true ,Enter Sandman ,,while roadies quickly roll piano out of sight ,,,
1:30
If I could have just ONE of those guitar omg
Inspiring human beings. Kinda wish the video was longer.
2:06 EET FUK
Lolle man 😍
But where is FUK EM UP???? What happend to that guitar!!!!
Antonio Centeno he still has it at hq :) always wanted to make a fuk em up explorer
A B oh i see, i like more His Black explorers, that's why, i want one too
melissa n get outta here
make it 3 hours long and I´d still watch it
Me too.
James: ,,hello i’m lars” ... classic
the EET FUK guitar @ 2:06 is an epic..legendary instrument of metallica
GOD DAMN THIS IS MY DREAM!!!!
They actually seem to be into this. I think a lot of musicians would just go through the motions.
unun septium - They sure do seem like they go through the motions live. But anyway...
It could be age and the fact that we have seen them on video for almost 40 years. Lets see if Randy Blythe performs the same way in 15-20 years.
Michael Angelo H.
What do you expect them to do? They're a professional touring band. But they still look like they're having a ton of fun onstage, and they often throw in impromptu jams.
Vincent M - Yes, me. Someone who has been watching them closely for like 17 years. Sorry for giving my accurate observation. - Besides, I'm comfortable enough that I would tell THEM in person.
+Melissa n - you sound like you'd be fun at parties. It's kind of ironic that your name is the same as a Merciful fate album...which is very satanic. Guess that means you must be evil too hey. Fuckin religious nutcase.
thats me :-) ty Ernie Ball for making my dreams come true!!
Anthony Padilla are you sure about that
are you the guy from smosh? lol
Dude....still thinking about how lucky we were. Hope you're doing well man!
It totally would have asked James if i could hold "EET FUK" Lolol i love that guitar
Great video but.... too short. Please do it longer
This is where I write all my heavy songs....right here!
(Half heartedly plays piano keys with one hand)
00:39 Is that a new Kirk "horror-poster" guitar? Never seen that one before!
orderofthebrokeneye I think he has more that we have never seen before
I'm pretty sure it's his Hula girls one but I could be mistaken.
That's definitely not the Hula Ghouls. It's another new one with Hawaiian theme though, haven't seen it either.
Was wondering the same , first time seeing this
LOL did Kirk bang you in 1991 and never call back hahaha
2:41 YES!!!! Play it for you!!! Agreed with PapaHet 110%
excellent (short !) video thanks from France. Ernie Ball's team did good work
01:35 Who’s on the hallway of inspiration?
Sweet - Fox on the Run, I see Maiden and Sabbath’s first albums. The UFO and Priest live albums.
I agree we need to know. I was trying to see the albums but can't.
Thin Lizzy - Live and dangerous (above UFO - Strangers in the night) I'd like to know what other ones are on there too!
I'm digging the electro shirt Hammett is wearing.
I would do unspeakable things for the opportunity to meet these guys.
Love how "Trevor" checks James into place. 0:15
Lol! Thanks man. I didn't think twice. I know damn well who that guy is
man i can listen to james talk about anything for a week non stop
I would die to meet em. They are my guitar idols. One and two right there. They are so fucking cool. And have stayed so humble I love it.
You don't have to die to meet them
Book them or get VIP Tickets, it'll cost you around $2000 for VIP tickets but it's an experience, Booking them to come to your place is like $750,000 for a few hours
I like the symphony of destruction riff at the end
Another 2 hours of this please.
This is awesome, should have been much longer.
We bow... ❤
Nice. Should have been longer
I wish you guys could have James sit down and talk about it show off some of his old iconic guitars. Like give us a backstory on some of them.
Oh man I would die to play that Eet Fuk Mx220
I fuckin love these guys! Love HQ tours
I absolutely love Metallica, for me, no other bands come close...thank you guys!... Please don't stop
Same here. Metallica till the end.
Same here.
Oh, it's uploaded the day I went 18 years old, AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Id love to look through that guitar collection.all their cases have these tags on with the picture of the guitar thats inside......id be happy just looking at them!!!!
More Please!!
I want like a 1h+ tour of this.
I saw them open for WASP in Detroit, in 1985 (yes, with Cliff) was SO fuggin' beastly!!
side note: Met Chris Holmes that night too... haha, wild dude! Great night!
1:19 Brazil 👊
Look at that archive of music!!!!!
A dream comes true
Metallica HQ....heaven💕
Amazing!!! Very cool !!! I’m glad someone filmed all this.
Awesome thanks guys
0:38 those eyes
2:30 This just gave me the urge to buy a new Metallica shirt from the website , and I some how ended up ordering 5 for over a 100$
Awesome! 😍. . . 0:39 Demonology, PD😄 and ? Thanks for uploading! 🤘
Aloha from Hell.
The Best James!
Greatest guitar duo.
Those who got the chance to visit their HQ have seen what heaven looks like.
2:51 Megadeth XD
I love how when Kirk points Sweet's Fox on The Run Album the kid goes "Never Heard Of It!"
Well now you have. Kirk told you about it. Go out and buy it so you can hear the classic bands th at influenced Metallica. If it wasn't for bands like Sweet, Merciful Fate, Samhain, Sweet Savage,Motorhead and many other NWOBHM bands inspiring them we wouldn't have Metallica and many of the other Metal bands such as the Big 4 to headbang to.
It's cool to hear the originals of some of the covers Metallica does then listen to thier interpretation of it. So young fans should go out and fins these albums. They'd love it and appreciate these bands for giving us the birth if the mighty Metallica.
Please do a 3 hour version of this
We need the whole interview + bts
miss this band.. RIP metallica 1981 - 1997ish... they were quite good in those days.
I'd love to meet and play with those guys. Just to plug in around them would be a life goal.
I asked them! I had been practicing just in case. They said no. Probably because they hadn't warmed up and people were recording haha. Totally understandable.
@@trevor5803 Yeah that makes sense
2:05 the legendary EET FUK explorer! played in the 1989 seattle show
Man! I want to go to Metallica HQ
Nice hat,James!
It's LARS
At the 1:39 mark, Kirk references the song "Fox On The Run" by Sweet. He is talkin' bout the Sweet album "Desolation Boulevard" ain't he? I also notice he points out UFO "Strangers In The Night", Thin Lizzy "Live And Dangerous" and Judas Priest "Unleashed In The East". Bad ass live albums-all of them. I would love to take a gander at the rest of those records on the wall and see what other classic albums Metallica holds in high esteem.
1:06 Way better than original Sandman. All of the notes = 100% accurate. Ears do not bleed at all, it sounds beautiful. 👍👌 Cheers 🍻
Missed his calling as a lounge-pianist,,,with Bill Murray Later for the song"StarWars",,
Man really wish I coulda been there
2:42 - 2:57 the reason why they don't play fixxxer
So funny you said that. I was on the couch, and we were talking about lyrics, and James says, "You don't want to write a ton of lyrics and try to fit them all into a song. That's how you end up with Load and Reload." And I said, "I love those albums. You guys should play Fixxxer more!" (or at all). He said, "...and I love those albums too, but..." Hey, I gave it a shot.
Mission fucking accomplished. Check out the 40th anniversary show. You're welcome :)
I love to see James and Kirk alone
So, James lives in Vail,CO. He must have another home in CA. That’s a heck of a commute to the studio everyday.
Love from India...
,, Don't play it for somebody else, play it for you '' THE most important thing to keep your motivation high over many years ! If you start to play music other people want but you don't like it, it's the beginning of the end !
Talented boys. If they keep going and focus on the music maybe they've got what it takes for people to recognise them in just a few years.
Nah, they'll never make it, they'll probably not play guitar solos and down tune their guitars and just shout off key into a mic!
@@MrParkerman6 ahhh so you have seen their live shows,I thought only I felt that way,,
0:33 - "The one thing I live for, is getting that bolt of inspiration, and running to my guitar... ...and then putting my great ideas down onto my iPhone and then promptly losing said iPhone. That. That is what I live for." - Kirk Hammett.
Dick.
Hahahaa WHAT?!?!? Chill out, dude.
Scrolled down hoping to see someone had said it haha
1:30 My Gosh!!!!
I really thought Kirk was going to say: "I love looking at it because.... because it's shiny!"
This video was putting into UA-cam on the day of my 18th birthday.
James : this where I write all my heavy songs, right here.
_plays enter sandman on piano_ 😂
I'm a little bit confused cause intro looks like Newsted's "As The Crow Flies"!
that would be awkward :)
The Goats 🤘🤘🤘 All Hail
I could spend ages in there and still want more, so much history, do they really need all them guitars........lol
i want to visit that sound library
Wish I was there Rn
Well, my country's flag is hanging at their HQ, proud af! 0:26 White and Blue stripes. Honduras!
James...dont play for sombady else...play for you...holy words.
Just got inspired!
I'VE NEVER SEEN THIS, HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE
Kirk: hey im kirk (yeah ofc you’re)
James: heyy im Lars😂😂😂😂
Thats my boi Anthony Padilla!!!
I feel like James is the father I never had . . . ❤🤘
Metallica FOREVER!
I would never be able to contain myself so close to the most iconic guitars of all time.. I would probably pee myself and cry like a little girl..
I would kill to do this.
I would die to go there...
Don’t play it for somebody else, Play it for you, you Know…..
Play the stuff that you wanna listen back to and go….. fuck yeah…..!!! That is Cool, I did that….
two thumbs up!!👍👍
LUV IT !!!!😜🤘
I entered this contest at least five times dammit! So jealous!
