Lars is a taxi driver
If you ever wondered why Lars Ulrich is not practicing drums at all in his spare time, we have the answer. He’s a parent 24/7… Awww
“Yes, I am a Mr Mom. I take care of three kids pretty much full time — they are 3, 9 and 12. My main job is being a taxi driver or a chauffeur. I just drive kids around all day. So when I’m on tour, I get a chance to be driven, and handed blueberry protein shakes — without vodka — and to sit and check my lack of hair in this mirror.“

Lars loves the Big 4
Lars Ulrich, Metallica‘s drummer and main ranter, loved The Big Four. It’s all good and all, but we heard him the first time he said it.
“It’s pretty amazing if you think about it, that it’s the first time basically in 25 years or 30 or whatever that the four of us have actually played shows together,” he said. “So it was a lot of fun, a lot of memories, a lot of fun times — new fun times, and fun times talking about the old fun times. So it sort of was a, it was a winner on every front.” said Lars while counting his zillions.

Well, I’m sure he does love them since the DVD pretty much sold like hot candy. Expect an in-depth review of it, coming from us, quite soon. Also expect general badassery coming from this site.
Some interviews
Lars Ulrich (pictured above) got interviewed by some very annoying guy in Australia. I don’t know if all Australians talk and look like that, but my God I felt like headbutting my monitor. Watch it after the jump.
Steve Flynn of Atheist also got interviewed. He talks about the band’s early days and whatnot, I didn’t really read it but maybe you have a better attention span so click here for it.
Wednesday 13 of Murderdolls (huh?) got interviewed, too. I didn’t know you could name yourself after a date. In that case my name is September 11, not because of the horrible terrorist attacks, but because I lost my virginity then. Sadly, September of 2010, not 2001, but hey, at least I’m a man now. Video also after the jump.
Clint Lowery of Sevendust also has an interview… You’ll find it after the jump, and you gotta give it to Clint, he’s keeping it real, he doesn’t need fancy schmancy pro interviews like Lars. He did a webchat or something cause everything looks horrible, technical wise. That’s what my mom said about my first sextape by the way, but since I’ve gone HD she became a fan.
Someone has too much money
As we reported earlier, Metallica has auctioned off drum lessons and lunch with Lars Ulrich. We didn’t really think that would sell for more than $15, but guess what, someone paid $35,000 for it.
I hope they film this. I can’t wait to see the look on the poor schmuck’s face when he asks for a refund and they tell him it’s impossible.
I’m kidding, of course, as this money is for charity, and they raised a total of $8.5 million so that can’t be bad. Read the full article here and make sure to read the comments, as well. For a quick laugh, you know?
Lars is a good actor
Even more Lars news. We know you can’t get enough of him. This time he’s acting.
“Metallica drummer Lars Ulrich and actor Peter Coyote are featured in the trailers for the upcoming 33rd edition of the Mill Valley Film Festival, set to take place October 7-17, 2010.“
