I can't help liking a guy that the rest of Metaliica were, well, in fact a
bit afraid of
He's a star.....abrasive or what-not, he demanded his attention and got it
I do think Kirk trumped him in the replacement phase though.....I wish Kirk
had had more say.....If I still cared about a band that I helped make too
popular, Kirk is my man......
