This is what James Hetfield, of Metallica, was asked in a recent interview.
“If someone told you 30 years ago that in 30 years time, you would be playing a sold-out concert in Sydney, Australia, what would your reaction be?“
Usually, when asked this bullshit cliché question, the interviewee is supposed to go on a modesty trip and be all “OMG I DO NOT KNOW! I NEVER EXPECTED THIS!” blah blah blah. Not our man Papa Het, though. He’s keeping it real. His answer?
“I would have said, ‘You bet. You bet I am.’ That was it. I was gonna do it.“
So if you were wondering if success and fame changed Metallica, nope, they were always like this.
