Nothing beats witnessing the meeting of great music legends to make us happy, right? And that's exactly what the video of Metallica and Lemmy playing backstage at a show in Nashville in 2009 does to the heart of any headbanger around the world.
With a friendly “Hey, you sons of bitches?”, Lemmy enters the room and is greeted by James Hetfield with a “Hello, sir”. Together, they play the Motorhead , “Damage Case” and “Too Late Too Late”.
At the end of the two redemptions, the burning question is asked by Hetfield, "Are we hired?". The question results in a hilarious response from Lemmy, who states, "Yeah, I think so. You gotta get rid of the drummer, though," referring to Lars Ulrich , who protests, claiming he's been trying to leave Metallica for 25 years!
