Most of my guitars have been instruments that look cool. I'm not picky. I never think, 'Oh, this neck isn't made of ebony,' or, 'These strings don't feel correct.' It doesn't matter too much.

There is one Metallica. We have many styles, it's called Metallica.

One time we saw some hookers but when we got closer we realized it was Motley Crue.

Any time somebody is into your band that's a good thing. And if they're in a really cool, really popular band, that's a better thing.

Nothing can duplicate the sheer power and feeling you get from standing in front of your amp and bashing on your guitar.

Metallica is a wonderful key to have on my key ring. I can go anywhere - it's great.

Rehab is like college for your head.
