He comes up with a simplistic riff that they mimic in 2 seconds, and that's called "schooling"?
I mean really... the riff was sorta cool, but damn.  |

| Unfortunately for Lars, he always looks like that. 
He definitely must know he is and has always been the weak link as a musician in Metallica, though I can't say I'm too familiar with Ron McGovney's bass playing. |

As far as schooling or simple riffs .... Sorry boys but this his how successful bands work and as simple riffs, could anyone who is talented enough to call flamenco simple, please record themselves throwing down & put up a link, cause I love it and can't play it worth a damn....

You dont have to play everything like a talent competition to make good music.
I would also like to nominate Lars for possibly being the most over-rated drummer of all time. Especially from people who dont have any formal music playing experience.

I loved Hammett's comment at the end of the clip.... "We hate you!"
