Animal rights activists want Metallica booted from the Glastonbury music festival because frontman James Hetfield is an enthusiastic hunter, the Telegraph reports.
A Facebook page calling for their removal, launched shortly after the History Channel announced that Hetfield will narrate its new series about bear hunting, already has over 27 thousand likes.
The page says that Hetfield’s “support of big game hunting…is incompatible with the spirit of Glastonbury and brings its good name into disrepute.”
Hetfield, who once admitted that he missed his son’s birthday while hunting bears in Russia, is a member of the NRA and has described himself as “pretty conservative on a lot of things.” “I love nature,” he said in a 1993 interview with Rolling Stone. “I love the wilderness, and there is not much more of it left.

Man, I envy you and your daughter. Bruce Dickinson has got a great voice and a range like an air raid siren, but Dio was just more a pure singer, pitch-perfect, IMO.

> Metallica and Megadeth. Dave Mustaine is an unabashed conservative as well.
Most people that work hard for their money and have paid more than their fair share of taxes are.

It was very awesome. After the concert started, I just stood in the back and enjoyed the whole show. I also have the tape.
> He kills the bears with his bare hands and wears the pelts, still bloody, for his shows.
Chuck Norris simply stares them down and they follow him back home to live the rest of their existence as bear rugs...
Love when bands take old tunes and do this to them.

Agree totally with you
Motorhead opened, Dio was act 2 and Maiden headlined. Motorhead was what you’d expect. Dio (W/Goldy on guitar) just floored everyone. The man can do no wrong) and then Maiden.
I think the sun rises and sets on Dickenson vocally, but to see those two back to back and 100% on fire all night was a truly amazing thing to see and hear.
The kid gets lots of hate to this day from dudes that are jealous ;)
Tell you what.
I love to expose my kids to old classics. They catch on.
Old Mickey Gilley and Aretha Franklin songs.
Megadeth Train of Consequences is perfect for Obama voters.

I’m doing you a favor
As I’m taking all your money
I guess, I should feel sorry
But I don’t even trust me
There’s bad news creeping up
And you feel a sudden chill
How do you do? My name is trouble
I’m coming in for the kill
In for the kill
Ooh, and you know I will
Geezer Butler really shined on Heaven and Hell.
Really? Well, thirty years, a foot of hair, and about sixty pounds ago, me and my Japanese Les Paul knockoff could open up a can of whoop-ass on ZZ Top. LOL!

The new era of “Rule by Mass Hysteria”
“Never heard a Metallica song in my life”
At first I was wondering how that can be, but I’m not a big C&W fan (although it’s fun to dance to) so I guess it can happen.
I saw Stevie Ray Vaughn at a little bar outside Plano Texas many many moons ago.

There’s a festival for bear hunting??
I think that in order to lave lived a full life, one needs to hear Master of Puppets, the entire album, at least once.
MOP, Sanitarium, and of course, Disposable Heroes are required listening at minimum.
