Headed up to San Francisco to join 16,000 maniacal Metallica fans at the Chase Center for a special performance of the S&M2 show with the San Francisco Symphony, a massive 75-piece orchestra. While there I ran into a good friend (and Metallica superfan) who used to do studio engineering for the Antiquiet Sessions. Oh yeah, and he was tripping his balls off.

We catch up after the show to recount our experience for today’s episode, recapping the weird & wild few hours with Metallica, on LSD.

Also covered: the new Tool album 'Fear Inoculum', new music from Refused, Desert Sessions + more.
