NME: Watch James Hetfield thank his Metallica bandmates in emotional on-stage speech
James Hetfield praised his Metallica bandmates during an on-stage speech in Brazil last week, saying that their support “means the world to me”. The frontman made the remarks while addressing the crowd at the band’s gig at the Estádio do Mineirão in Belo Horizonte, Brazil on Thursday (May 12). Ahead of performing their song ‘Sad But True’, Hetfield spoke to the crowd by initially joking about the Metallica fan who recently gave birth during the band’s show in Curitiba, saying: “Maybe we’ll have a Metallica birthing section at our shows, especially in Brazil! It’s amazing, isn’t it? It’s crazy. We are so blessed.”
