Attention pedal builders

[Dave W]

You've been insulted on Twitter by a twit

[Psycho Bass Guy]

Instant access to celebrity musings unfiltered: this is what happens, rock star problems. I get how this could have been an innocent, yet poorly worded missive, but because it carries the weight of Kirk Hammetts's name, it takes on another dimension entirely. To me, it's another sign of just how out of touch Kirk has become; he thinks he's a respected guitar player for his playing and not simply famous by association of the rest of Metallica. I will say that his playing has improved in the past few years, but for having played almost nothing but his own music for over 30 years, you'd think he'd be better at it.  The cynic in me also likes to point out that this is also on the heels of Metallica's media blitz over being excluded from the Super Bowl. Their cameo last week on "Billions" underscored EVERYTHING I despise about the band now. At least Kirk is usually just unaware. I've never seen him being a dick on purpose. I'll bet he even wrote the Tweet himself. Het or Lars would have filtered something like that through a publicist.

Yeah, that's par for the course with Metallica these days.  It's a wonder those guys can still fit through doors.

I'm not insulted, so much as laughing at the stupid.

So.... are these the three best pedals for metal?

Most of the guitarists I've played with destroy this guy. But... he's more famous.

This is the one I was waiting for. Thank You .

I had to look up Kirk Hammett in Wikipedia to find out who he was.

That's about how much weight I give his comments, as well.
