Hypothetically, let's suppose Kirk Hammet replaced Ron McWhatever on bass for Metallica. By a freak coincidence, Cliff Burton's guitar capability, already on the rise, made him good enough to take over rhythm duties for Hetfield, who soon realizes he's a better lead than Mustaine, who then switches to lead vocals. Does Metallica still end up producing a mutli-album turd streak through the 1990's to today beginning with the black album?

whos genius idea was it to make the hour hand smaller then the minute hand??
this really grinds my freakin gears, i mean, if i was in charge of this phenomena they would be the same size and of course the minute hand would be a bass player waving his bass over his head and chasing a guitarist around on stage....the bass would clearly be a Fender Jazz while the guitar player would be partly on fire and as each passing hour passed he would become more engulfed in flames.
this is of course for our viewing pleasure, i say this because i can think of way to many times when i pass by a clock, look up, i get the time, but i find myself highly disappointed due to the lack of a show/dinner theater type atmosphere. "when bass players attack"

If you could only see one more concert before you died, which band would you like to see perform? You can pick any band that's still together.
What are the grown-ups really saying to Charlie Brown?
Whatcha think about wet willies?
Will you let me ban a couple people, please? Not everyone will agree with my choices, but I'm comfortable admitting that I probably know what's better for me than they do.
