Why that was so difficult is hilarious...the man has zero fear of losing his gig so this is the shit you get for 30yrs. I mean you watch what jam room shit they put out from the Black album tour and there is an air of seriousness in the room. I'm all for laughing and having a good time, that's what you are supposed to be doing but at the same time, it's hard work too. Getting a band tight for a live performance takes time, energy, and effort and he puts as little as possible in at all times.
That's funny as hell..yes...he has ..he is looking tired...by the way, he is also always wearing his Rocky Balboa robe in concert while the others just casually walk on & off stage .what's up with that?
It's true. The thing about music is it _can_ be played in a box (cough music theory), but when you play outside of the box, more often than not you come up with something unique and new and exciting. There's nothing wrong with having an idea with how you picture your song sounding, but at least hear what your band mates would play too (ideally before you influence them with what you had in mind).
Really, WTH? Not being a musician, is this common practice by drummers in a studio setting? Man, I sure don't want to be the poor slob that has to clean up that mess when he leaves! Sports outside, sure I get it used to do it playing hockey. What are you going to do, stop take off your gloves and blow your nose. But in a small studio setting to just let both barrels rip on the floor, really? Anyway cool vid, the blank sort of look was hilarious and James had soooo much patience that particular moment..... Don't think it was always that way of course but good for him in that moment.
Wait though... The Tour de France is a two and a half week long bike race held every year from early July through mid July and these guys ride an average of 109 miles a day average around 32 mph.
It's really hard for me to comprehend how you can make millions out of music, having no other job nor career besides that, and yet through all these years he just can't sit to practice or take classes. It blows my mind.
may I bring an example from the world of Korean Popular Music.. aka Kpop they have girl groups sometimes consisting of 5 or 7 or 9 members (sometimes even more than 12) and some of these so called "idols" are making millions of dollars per year simply cause they're good looking, young and skinny someone else writes their music.. someone else choreographs their dance moves.. and a pitch-correcting plugin sings for them.. yet they're the ones rolling in the benjamins while the geniuses behind the scenes are back on their 9 to 5 grind making money.. ESPECIALLY entertaining human beings.. has never been.. or will ever be.. about talent. no one cares about skills if they're not entertaining.. and Lars is entertaining lol this is called "the entertainment busines" not "the musical business" hey.. at least Metallica writes their own music and sings their own songs lolol at least the money is SOMEWHAT earned. but still.. never confuse what entertains you with what you respect.. those two rarely ever mix and dont beat yourself up when you're being entertained by something you dont respect OR.. and this is the most important lesson of all.. dont ever think the things you respect need to be entertaining! the best science fiction movies are the most boring ones.
@g00k11 I understand your take. By no means, and i have not stated, i have no respect for artist. Even more so because it's not the kind of media i don't enjoy or consume. My take is because there are several videos of Metallica struggling with Lars when they try to make new music. I dont really believe that Kpop artists dont put hard work on what they do. Popularity does not defind other thing that creating something popular, whether thats casualty or a causality. To each it's own in terms of what they want. My take is that when you strive to live from what you enjoy, the logical thing would be to grow with practice and acquiring knowledge, because it will boost your craft and you as an artist. It's not a meta by any mean, it is my take and nothing more. Thank you for sharing your thoughts.
@@maurogarces7337 obviously thats the logical thing to do but most people are not logical.. they're driven by emotions.. and metallica isn't special in that case..

at some point in life you just want people around you can put up with lol. these guys been putting up with each other for a very long time. lars was the right man from the start
I love how people think Lars sucks at drums. He simply doesn’t. He’s just remarkably average in the best way possible. The guy is a producer, not a drummer. I don’t think he’s ever held back trying to get that across.
That’s what I’m sayin! Sure, he can have timing issues sometimes and there are better metal drummers but that doesn’t mean he’s bad. Playing as fast as he does for 2 hours is not easy especially at the age he’s at now
This! No he's not the best metal drummer ever. He never claimed to either. But he IS the metal drummer in one of the worlds absolute biggest metal bands. And he has been since its creation. He has co-written EVERY single Metallica song but one: Motorbreath. There's no metal drummer that's even close.
"I don't want to let the team down" Who? "The team. I don't wanna let the raiders down or anybody" Lol. I've never found Lars to be all that funny but that one got me.
1.47 Damn, apart from James's voice being a little off (and maybe a little extra bass), it sounds almost exactly like it does on the album. I hope they kept a recording of the rest of this rehearsal, it'd be fascinating to listen to.
The fact that Lars blows his snaught out right behind his kit leads me to believe he’s a nasty ass! He let the team down by actually doing that on camera !
I remember watching "Some kind of monster" and Lars was talking about how he met his wife, he said he walked up to her at a bar and said "I'm a big famous rock star do you want to talk" or something like that, Lars framed it as if he was being all ironic and sarcastic when he said it to her, and all I was thinking was no, you were dead serious, you couldn't bag the chick otherwise
It really helps communicating with fellow musicians when you all speak the same language, and every member isn't inventing nomenclature to describe what they want to hear.
The 'what.. do you think I'm Dave Lambardo' was savage. Dave's drumming on the South Of Heaven album still ranking up there in the stratosphere of greatness, a place that Lars can't even begin to reach.
I'm a regular detractor of Lars, but as a fellow drummer I'm slightly on his side when it comes to trying interpret a guitarist's attempts at telling you what to play.... "Yeah do a kind of badum dum tssssss diddly bum thing, on the third one do a double one" etc - it's never the easiest thing to interpret!
Yeah I was thinking "a double hit? a double hit on WHAT?!" Like, come on, all you have to do is tell him what needs to be hit and when. "I need two snare hits on the third measure" or "give me two sets of quads" Just saying "a double hit" means nothing.
Cmon, they've been playing together for over 40 years, if he can't figure what James means now, no one would ever. I played in a band with my cousin and a best friend for like 3 years in and I understood when my cousin said, play a 'dum dum dudum' without telling me what notes to play.
It’s Lars and James band. Always has been always will be, Picking on Lars is like a new bulling thing. He was never thought of as trash when they were in their heyday. I think his drumming on Justice is F’in awesome . Love how people like to throw out opinions about music that can barely play an instrument and have never made a penny in the music industry.

He is the worst most successful drummer of all time.
@@simonfeakes Ok … why do you expect him to practice or do anything at this point - he’s like 60 years old. He doesn’t owe you or anyone anything. You have the choice to NOT go see them or buy their records. I’ve seen them many times lately and the drumming neither stuck out as great or shitty. I’m glad to be able to see the band I grew up with. Lars is part of Metallica , take it or leave it.
It's really nice to see a celebrity that's real like us. We, as normal folks talk shit about Lars, so does James. You sometimes forget celebrities are real people.

Lars is metal. The rest of them are sober and trying to become a fruity country band
I feel like Lars made it in the band and felt like since he's already in the band he doesn't need to practice drums anymore
The way James just goes into through The Never is totally awesome
Being awesome is what he does. Lars is there just to (unnecessarily) amplify that.

You have the choice to NOT go see them or buy their records. I’ve seen them many times lately and the drumming neither stuck out as great or shitty. I’m glad to be able to see the band I grew up with. Lars is part of Metallica , take it or leave it.
Jesus James is so patient I’d just be like go leave get outta here eventually or just start laughing at them
What most don’t realise is Lars is reason band is still together to this day - absolute legend.
Hi Lars
@@mefipulate Hi clown.
How do you come to that conclusion?
@@simonfeakes cos it's well documented especially in late 90s early 2000s.
@@aurynwestwield1682 so... Not the last 24 years?
Q: How can you tell if a drum riser is level?
A: When the drool is coming from both corners of the drummer's mouth.
"The more we do it, the less spontaneous it gets"
f**k, i wish
here for the comments
Legends
What song are they practicing for?
Lars is probably one of the drummers in the whole world in my opinion.
Dude blew his nose straight on to the floor
Lars is a bad ass!!!
It's the notes in between
There's more that 1000 drummers that would make Metallica 1000 times better
Toda la paciencia James, tomando unos buenos matesssssssss
“I don’t wanna let the Raiders down or anybody..” lmfao 😂😂😂
Lars: So... 1 1 2 1?
James: ... maybe
😂
Bring that esp back out man !!
Lars' sheer panic as he says, "I hope so". 😂
It's really nice to see a celebrity that's real like us. We, as normal folks talk shit about Lars, so does James. You sometimes forget celebrities are real people.
Goddamn, James Hetfield's guitar sounds good
James drinks mate! GOAT
I'm sure I laughed more than i should have watching this XD
And to think that all Metallica songs were written by these type of interaction between them two.
He left the band! 😂
making $$$ with this. smart guys
