==== METALLICA TO DO EXODUS COVER? ================================
James has posted a note on the official tribute page for Paul Baloff 
where he writes that there is possibilities to record a Exodus cover. 
He say: 

We in Metallica would like to say that we will all miss Paul for his 
work, his kindness and for just being there.. So all our love to you 
Paul. I am actually gonna record a song just for Paul.., so look for 
it in the near future people.. ...We will all remember Paul. Like he 
said.., "Heavier than time" , He truly was. Cheers Paul!... 

And I would also like to thank all the people that supported me while 
I was in rehab..,thanx.. 

Yours truly//James Hetfield and the rest of Metallica 

My guess is that the Exodus song might end up as the b-side of a 
single sometime in the future. Exodus started in San Francisco about 
the same time as Metallica, and it was Kirks first band, before he 
joined Metallica. 



==== DREAM OF PUPPETS =============================================
Dream Theater is well known for being Metallica fans, and they have
covered the four Ms several times live and on CDs and DVDs. 

According to The Dream Theater Official French Fanclub, Dream Theater 
played a very special show at Razmatazz in Barcelona, Spain, at 
February 19th. Performing the entire Metallica "Master Of Puppets" 
album, all eight songs, while donning Metallica T-shirts and sporting 
an improvised Dream Theater-logo'd Master of Puppets backdrop. Billed 
on Dream Theater's official website as a "Very special show", the gig 
featured no opening act and was the second of a two-night stint at 
the venue.

==== KIRK AT THE CRIBS ============================================
A reliable source tells me that Kirk invited MTV:cribs on the 18th 
of February to do a tour of his house to be on an episode in late 
april 

MTV:cribs is a program that shows you where today's brightest stars 
go for a little rest and relaxation? Nowhere else but home. 

Kirk have a huge collection of horror movies, dolls, masks and stuff 
which is so big that he has employed a person to take care of it for 
him. This collection would be killer to se on TV.
