I know this may sound a bit odd as I don’t personally know James but still. He has struggled with substance abuse for a long time. He found a wife that helped him stay sober but he recently folded and is now back in rehab. Metallica had to cancel tour dates because of it. It is personal to me because I am a recovering addict and I know how horrible it is. And I can only imagine how hard it would be with out God. If any of y’all pray I ask that you say a prayer for him and his family. I know they are going through a very rough time at the moment and can use the help.

I've been a Metallica fan before they made it big. I'm talking Dave Mustane and Cliff Burton days. This saddens me because you would think at 56 years of age, and a family man, he would kinda "outgrow" that type of behavior. I guess it could happen to any one of us.

Kick the **** James ol' buddy. You can rock just fine without it. Prayers sent for James, his family and you too freddy.

Definitely wish him the best in bettering himself, but I low key hope he wrote an album while he was off that wagon... They haven't made good music since going sober.

Very true. Metallica has sucked huge donkey balls since the early 90s when they cut their hair to go "alternative" with their music.

Yeah, I suppose you're right. Maybe I was just referring to the rockstar lifestyle. He needs to outgrow that.

Yeah, a lot of them don’t make it to 30. The temptations they face have to be out of this world. They can get all the sex and drugs they want, turn it down and live right, then die in a bus crash on their way to the next gig. Transportation accidents have taken so many great ones.
