"On October 23, 2006, Newsted was injured while attempting to catch a falling bass amp head. The accident resulted in a torn anterior labrum in his left shoulder and a rotator cuff and biceps tear in the right. He was scheduled for immediate surgery, and underwent a lengthy rehab process. Newsted has been out of the public eye ever since." |

Totally true. Actually, I can top that: Metallica's first bassist (according to Wikipedia... eh?) was James Hetfield. They did a version of Hit the Lights for a comp called "Metal Massacre" and Hetfield played bass on it.
Now there is something to not care about!
