Episode 59: Les Claypool of Primus; Metallica Tour Photographers Jeff Yeager & Brett Murray

The week of September 11, 2024 on The Metallica Report…

Steffan chats with one of Kirk Hammett’s old schoolmates… you may have heard of him. The one and only Les Claypool, the creative force behind Primus, joins the podcast to share some teenage algebra class memories. And as any good reporter would do, Renée follows up with Kirk for his take on those early days.

Then, our hosts catch up with Jeff Yeager and Brett Murray, the documentarians behind the cameras at every single Metallica tour stop. How many photos do they take a night? How do they pick their shots? Until what time in the wee hours of the morning do they work?! Find out all of that and more on this week’s episode!
