Would it have killed Kirk to practice for these shows? Good god, some of his solo's are absolutely awful :blink:
That's nothing new. His solo's have become very sloppy at times. Especially since the '03 shows.

It's a shame. Kirk himself says that he doesn't practice metal because he already plays it enough.

He plays different styles but those styles aren't used in Metallica songs or live at their shows.

I would love to see Kirk practicing again because he hammered some damn fine solo's and it would be fun to hear them the way they were written and recorded live.
Totally agree. His playing has been getting worse and worse over the years. You REALLY notice it even more when you listen to the LiveMet shows with headphones on.
Seriously, what the hell was that solo on TLITD at Fillmore? It has nothing to do with the album version. :blink:

Yeah, some bits are way off key. Whenever Kirk tries to improvise it's usually a disaster lol I was pretty disappointed when 1st hearing TLITD. There are so many parts in that song that are some of my fav Metallica music (the main solo, the clean middle section & solo etc ) and they did a pretty good of messing both of those up.

Touring for two years was more than my body could take.
You're there and your head tells you that you have to go on,
but your body is close to giving out. Five to six days a week,
i was on stage for about two and a half hours every night.
Doing that for over two years, my larynx didn't feel great,
it felt like my vocal cords were just falling apart
