I just discovered this Forum and Im cursing myself cuz I havent found it before!! lol
My name is Ursula, Im a 17s girl and I was born and still living in Sao Paulo, Brazil.
My passion for Metallica comes from my father who was a long haired (not anymore!
) guy and, in my opinion, lived in the best music time (the 70's-90's Rock). I was born in August 12 of 1992, that was the great time of the Black Album.. now you image what was the "soundtrack" of my first birthday party! Yes, the BLACK ALBUM! 
It's so fun to take that old VHS cassette and watch me, a little baby, in the middle of a lot of men (my crazy father's friends) watching them headbanging and playing air guitar while listening to the Black Album.. hahaha!!
As you can imagine, I grew up listening to Metallica.. but I just realized what I've always been singing and listening to 3 or 4 years ago. From that time on, I started looking for more information about the band and learning their history.
And so, this year, on 31 January.. I had the opportunity to go to a real Metallica's concert here in Sao Paulo!!! I slept outside the stadium, under rain during the night and a fuckin hot sun during the day.. But when Metallica came to the stage, oh my god.
The most beautiful moment of the show for me, an image that I'll always keep on my mind, was when they started playing Nothing Else Matters and looking around I could see both young and old men crying.. and a giant and diamond moon above our heads, in the clean black sky..
That was a night to never forget!
My father later told me "You went there to find your roots".. And he couldn't be more right.
This year, on my 18's birthday, Ill gift to myself a tattoo.. it will be my first one, the Metallica's ninja star on my neck.
Well, sorry for typing too much.. Its a lil about me and my history!
Kisses and hugs,
Ur.
