METAL UP YOUR PODCAST - All Things Metallica

We're closing in on 100 full episodes and what better way to creep to celebrate than with Slipknot drummer, Jay Weinberg!

This is a long one! Jay was very gracious with his time and we covered so many topics. His upbringing in New Jersey, growing up the son of E-Street band drummer Max Weinberg, going to shows at a young age, backstage at Conan, touring with The E Street Band as a teenager, playing for Bruce Springsteen, meeting Lars Ulrich before learning drums, a family outing at Ozzfest, joining Slipknot and an insane amount more!

We even crammed in a special edition of Metal Madness. Thanks again to Jay for taking the time out of his crazy schedule to sit down and chat with us at HQ1!

This is the last Metal Tales for about a month, as Metallica is taking most of November off. For this episode, we are joined by our long time listener and supporter, Will Vallar! Not only do we burn down the setlist, but Will tells us about his intro to Metallica, the days of working at a record store, getting hooked up at shows and a great story about seeing Nirvana in 1993. Thanks again to Will for being a part of the show!

For this episode of Metal Tales From The Road, Ethan talks to listener and Patron, Bryan McLaughlin. He attended the Philadelphia show a couple days ago and gives us a rundown of the night, his coming online moment and much more. He was also fortunate enough to see the band in Philly twice on this tour, which didn't happen in any other city on the Worldwired Tour. Thanks again to Bryan for taking the time to share his Metallica story and thoughts on the show!

SHOW #12!

State College, PA

On this episode of Metal Tales we talk with our pal and patron Nick Mockoviak. Many of you will be familiar with Nick and his work as he is responsible for the amazing "Cover Our World Blackened, Vol. 1" artwork. An artist and art teacher in New Jersey (for real), Nick is a die hard fan. On this episode we talk about coming online during the early 90's, growing to appreciate Load/Reload, narrowly missing the MSG S&M performance, a highlight of the 9 shows Nick has been to, the influence of Pushead on his work, how to submit for the individual show posters and, of course, the Metallica show in State College.

Show # 10

For this episode we talk to friend and patron Tiffany Simonson about the Milwaukee, WI show. Tiffany has been a fan since 1986 and seen 11 shows, some of which were quite special.
