An event hosted by METALLICA drummer Lars Ulrich at the University of California-Berkeley earlier this month was interrupted by liberal students who stormed the stage in protest of subpar conditions endured by contract workers on campus. One student allegedly assaulted Salesforce.com founder Marc Benioff during the incident.
Benioff was on campus on March 2 to participate in the public forum intended to explore the creative culture of the Bay Area through conversations with other leading cultural figures from the community, including Ulrich and the drummer's father, Torben Ulrich, who at 87 is still active in music, film and poetry.
Members of the Student Labor Committee, the group that crashed the event, reportedly urged a boycott of all speakers until the administration agreed to their demands.

I know there's a great deal of raving about the English drummers of old (and dead), but he is superior to all of them.
Expulsion of the violent students is in order.
But I’d bet against it.
Pete Townshend would have thrown them off the stage.
Metallica is one of my favorites. I’ve seen them several times, even got to see them when they played with the San Francisco symphony.

Benioff is one of the biggest obama ass kissers on the planet. Funny how this libtard got a dose of his own medicine. Hoped he wet his pants.
This is the first I have heard about this disruption. Not surprised.
The very first ticket that was given to me by my uncle was the GNR Metallica show in vancouver. Guess what happened in Montreal before...
and that same uncle saw Metallica at the Niagara (now a Sheraton) when Cliff was still alive. The crowd was so big they trashed the place and banned Metallica for a year in Vancouver.
(And he's not from England. He's from Texas.)
The Libs are going bat s-— crazy.

He probably thinks he built that company. The “students”, whose actions he would normally support, are simply re-educating him.
A sense of schadenfreude is suddenly permeating me.
The good old days.
Not even in the top 10.
That’s why our company doesn;t use Salesforce and we made a contract with their competitor. Benioff is a liberal asshole.
It is a shame that Trump’s crass language has encouraged these communists to react so violently. Trump should apologize immediately.
Tolstoy revisited.
“The good old days.”
Saw them 8 times, he saw them 5. I couldn’t stand anything past the Black album, except maybe Garage. Now that I have tickets for Coacachella for GNR, I had flashbacks of the riots when Axl no showed LOL
Neil Pert, Keith Moon, Buddy Rich, Lars is a bad ass drummer though.. I mean the drum roll on the song One is just freakin bad ass.
What is a liberal student?
