109: More Metalli-archeology at the Inveniem Vault
This week on The Metallica Report…
We dive right back into another Metalli-treasure excavation with Steffan, Dan Nykolayko, and Ally Bace at the Inveniem, the home of the real-life Metallica Black Box. Among this excursion’s highlights are a rare Kirk Hammett artifact, old and intriguing setlists, and a discussion about that glorious old nugget, the cassette tape! Not to be forgotten, the CD longbox makes an appearance, we settle a hotly contested “Outlaw” debate, and Kevin Weinstein—pay attention—because the answer is “yes!”
