This week on The Metallica Report…

Steffan and Renée check in from the Motor City for the final two shows of 2023 on the M72 World Tour. 

Steff tells us of his time touring resurgent downtown Detroit with Robert, visiting the historic Motown Museum and Fox Theatre.

James explains why he created Messengers: The Guitars of James Hetfield, and we hear more about and from the multi-generational fans who attended the book signings in Detroit and St. Louis.

Renée chats with Mammoth WVH drummer Garrett Whitlock about the awesome new Metallica Scholars sneakers he’s sporting from Wolverine, just released today! Proceeds from the sale of these shoes benefit All Within My Hands, Metallica’s foundation.
