    Kirk Hammett; Francesco Polsinelli, Iveco

    The week of June 5, 2024 on The Metallica Report…

    It’s Kirk Hammett’s turn to share his back-on-tour thoughts with Steffan. (ICYMI, Steff chatted with Robert and James during the last couple of episodes.) Kirk shares his love for being on the road and how he’s constantly striving to remain musically in the moment. It’s safe to say it… this man thrives on stage!

    Renée introduces us to Francesco Polsinelli, the Chief Communications Officer for M72 European Tour Sponsor Iveco Group. The electric and alternative fuel vehicle manufacturer is also behind the buses and trucks transporting the tour from city to city. On top of all that, the company also matches the All Within My Hands donations to local organizations at each European tour stop!

    Robert Trujillo; M72 Tour from Munich

    The week of May 29, 2024 on The Metallica Report…

    Steffan and Renée travel to Munich for the kick-off of year two of the M72 World Tour!

    We get a rare front seat for Robert Trujillo’s “back on tour” process as he chats about what it’s like to get back out on the road after a break and takes Steffan along as he walks the stage for the first time in 2024.

    Speaking of rare… Steff and Renée go very behind-the-scenes as they pop in and out of the various backstage rooms, each of which as unique as the respective band members who inhabit them.

    Finally, our hosts crash St. Germany’s Weekend Bash, where they get show #1 reactions from a few super fans. Spoiler alert: The Metallica Family had an incredible reunion!
