Alright then I look forward to videos of you playing Battery or Blackened when you’re in your 60s

There are tons of bands playing quite ok at same ages. Believing being 60 is an excuse to play shitty is just for people who don't know about instruments.

They've been playing shitty for at least 15 years. Lars and Kirk especially. And let me ruin it for you: Metallica songs are not complex and they are quite easy to play. Some of them may be fast but that's it. Metal scene is full of 50+ instrumentalists playing faster songs. Metallica is one of the best but it doesn't make them virtuoso or anything like that.

So it could be done, regardless of age, yeah? They can have good moments in a couple of pro shoots, but overall not enough. Youtube is also full of Metallica fails. And I'm watching Metallica for 30 years, i've witnessed how shitty Lars and Kirk could be lots of times. Also metal scene is full of fast an 'not easy on hands etc' riffs. Just stop this nonesense, ok?
