Kirk Hammett

It happened in Milan.

But how long will we wait before they release anything?

It wasn't an April Fool's joke.

No, it wasn't Jimi Hendrix or his guitar instructor Joe Satriani.

'So cool! This looks like an import... I mean a bootleg... I mean a bootleg import,' Hammett says.

A quick scan of his surroundings led the Metallica guitarist to determine it was a false alarm before getting official word it indeed was.

His comment in 'Some Kind of Monster' that having no guitar solos would anchor the album to its time period may have been right.

Robert Trujillo and Kirk Hammett brought up the Hanoi Rocks singer to do his 1989 single "Dead, Jail or Rock 'N' Roll."
