You Absolutely HAVE To Listen To Lars Ulrich on The Howard Stern Show

HowardStern-LarsUlrich-Interview

Late last night after getting back from the Big 4 show at Yankee Stadium, I just had to lookup the interview Lars Ulrich did with Howard Stern the day before. Howard Stern is to talk radio what Jimi Hendrix is to guitar. The man has turned the interview into an art form. The way he asks the most awkward questions matter-of-factly, and gets real answers from people is a true talent. This Lars interview is the perfect example. It's actually a really in-depth hour long conversation that is worth listening to if you happen to be a fan of the band.

It starts with Lars bragging about how great a tennis player he was and then talking about how he was a self-taught drummer, and basically sucked so bad that he went and got lessons between Kill 'Em All and Ride The Lightning. He also tells some great stories about Dave Mustaine (aka the most popular kid in town) and his relationship with James Hetfield. At the tail end, Richard Christy even comes on to gush about how much he loves Lars. It's a 6 parter, so brace yourselves:

  1. lars quoted dave grohl

    #coolpoints


    • Quoting Dave Grohl and being Dave Grohl are completely different things. Therefore, I retract all cool points awarded to Lars. Although I would like to know the frantic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tock tuning secrets behind the "St. Anger" snare.


      • very true, but i think the cool points should stay on the board because dave grohl is really fuckin cool and when someone like lars or anyone in music whom i despise quote someone i respect greatly it makes me think that maybe as a person hes not so bad


        • So by your logic, if Hitler quotes Grohl or someone you respect greatly, it makes him not as bad?

          That's like saying Lady Gaga's music is now okay to metalheads because she went to an Iron Maiden concert once.


          • different scenarios, iron maiden sucks so it proves gaga knows shit about "metal". key words are different scenarios. not everything is straight down the middle, specially with my "logic". if hitler quoted dave grohl, i would accept the fact he bitched out and shot himself like a little puss puss and we didnt get to capture him and absolutely fuck him
