Another Cash Grab?
Thursday, August 30, 2018 at 07:21AM
Not to be outdone by Def Leppard and their beer, Metallica now has a custom whiskey. It's called Blackened Whiskey and each run of 5,000 bottles will have a unique playlist at BlackenedWhiskey.com. Metallica says this is another way to create a deeper bond with their fans.

I still laugh when I remember that Sean guy coming out onstage at the Grammy"s (or some other award show, don't remember) wearing a Metallica shirt. This was at a time when the lawsuit from Metallica was in full swing. That killed me. ha ha. Good for him.
How many Kobe steaks do these clowns need to eat?
It’s hard to believe the almighty Metallica would stoop to the same level, albeit a more high end one, as Brett Michaels to make a quick buck.
They stoop, as goes Ulrich's logic, so as to rise above the mediocrity of their peers. You can bet that Hetfield wasn't involved in the blending of this fine spirit, as he was busy loading tables onto a flatbed while hightailing it from the Golden to the Centennial State (though both are a bit too green for him) But I bet Trujillo was, crab-walking around to make sure each cask was in right and proper order. Hammett (Kirk, not Dashiell ) was going to be actively involved too. But he stored directions to the distillery on his phone and lost them!
“... crab walking around ...”
A cartoon rendition of Trujillo really should make a guest appearance on “Sponge Bob”.
