Kirk Hammett's Recent Show Mishap: Botched Intro to Metallica's Nothing Else Matters

Metallica guitarist Kirk Hammett botched the intro to "Nothing Else Matters" during a recent show, but quickly recovered and played it perfectly on his second attempt. The mishap occurred on the first night of Metallica's US tour in support of their new album. Some fans defended the mistake as human error or age, while others suggested having frontman James Hetfield handle the intro in the future. The show featured a setlist of 16 songs, and Metallica will continue their tour in Montreal on August 11.
