Band Photo: Metallica (?)
Blabbermouth.net reports: METALLICA will be featured on the BBC Two program "The Culture Show" on Tuesday, August 5 at 10:00 p.m. UK time. A description of the show follows:
"Verity Sharp gets behind-the-scenes access to rock behemoths METALLICA on tour in Norway. Having sold close to 100 million albums, METALLICA are probably the biggest and most influential heavy metal band ever, and are now about to release their long-awaited ninth studio album. Verity joins the band in Bergen [in July 2008], sitting in on the late night rehearsals and pre-gig rituals. Featuring interviews with lead singer James Hetfield, the ultimate reformed rocker, and Lars Ulrich, drummer and fellow founder of the band, Verity turns the volume up to 11 in this revealing, if you will, rockumentary of a unique band."

BBC documentaries sound something like this:
"Here we see some older members of the metal family. Once proud and dominate in the region, the aged ones are now left alone to weakly fend off the carrion birds. Occasionally those that once looked up to them for protection and guidance stop by with some scraps of much-needed sustenance. Generally this would be sad in other realms of the metal kingdom but much of their current state of health was brought on by their own excesses and insatiable hunger for food and control beyond acceptable boundaries."

OK. You can't put something on BBC without proofing it. I've proofed it and this is the PRODUCTION version. Heehee. It's like I've got my own studio.
"Here we see some older members of the metal family--once proud and dominant in the region, the aged ones are now left alone to weakly fend off the birds of carrion in search of sickly and dying prey. Occasionally those that once looked up to them for protection and guidance will stop by with scraps of much needed sustenance. Generally this would be sad in other realms of the metal kingdom but unfortunately their current state of health was brought on by their own excesses which lead to their desire for control beyond acceptable boundaries and finally to their insatiable hunger for Hollywood-like recognition. The weakening elders of this once-proud genre have become forced to drivel out half-timed bar chords and painfully arthritic double-bass beats to the lesser followers that never really did know the difference. Eventually they will wander off to the graveyard of lost musicians leaving us all to wonder if they ever were the conquering dominant males of metal or just a batch of noisy b****es with no consequence.
Damn, this is some pretty good stuff. Feel free to add to it. If we get enough maybe we can get Comedy Central to run a Behind the Music spoof. How funny would that be?

Now we can see the destructive behaviour of the members of this clan. they are running with the lemmings, fran tik tik tik tik tok tik tok tikally, toward the Cliff. They show unusual retard behaviour because they actually thought that the Cliff was actually Cliff, once the proud leader of this tribe but since passed away in tragic circumstances. As you can see, they are falling down but somehow they do not seem to realize that there is a bottom to their fall and they keep falling deeper and deeper. It seems that to this band, death is magnetik.

Just watched it, it was only about ten minutes. They talked briefly about the new album but the woman doing the program seemed more intent on trying to prove that metal was more for kids than anyone which annoyed me. The rest of the show was about Goldfrapp or some sh**. I dunno, I went back to my Halford DVD.

I never saw it, but, about the woman trying to prove metal is 4 kids, she sounds like an ignorant soul...I gotta agree w/DO:people that insist on that annoy me too. I wonder why Metallica would even consider talking on BBC, that's kinda weird 2 me, they should have had someone who knew what Metal is talk to them.
