I was fortunate to see Cliff Burton perform with Metallica three times.
Awesome bass player who Metallica will NEVER be able to successfully replace.
Yep, he really helped define their playing style. MOP, RTL are masterpieces.
Jason was an excellent replacement, I would say. I didn’t get to see Cliff as I was too young, but I did see Jason 7 times from 88’ -01’ and he was an awesome and at times a scary presence. His backing vocals and energy were a perfect fit.
This is really cool and look forward to checking it out. Thanks Dana
Very Cool , Pancakes
Tallbear, I agree it’s cool. I hope others understand its relevance.
Yes, pancakes, go!!
Master of Pancakes! 😉 Well, at least I know what I’m having for breakfast this morning! LOVE pancakes! Nothing recharges your Battery like some good old-fashioned pancakes… And some good old-fashioned Metallica as well.
