lars ulrichs kits

Nice video ; I used to love the white Artstar but came to much prefer the Load / Reload Silver Starclassic.
The big Artstar seems impossible to play and the toms sizes are really over the top.

Yeah, I really like his silver sparkle Starclassic kit, that was my dream kit in the late 90's, watching Cunning Stunts and S&M quite regularly back then... The white one are cool but almost seem impossible to play, for me at least. Never really cared much for his later Starclassic kits, but that's me. I miss one kit for this video though, the wine red Superstar kit used in the studio for Master Of Puppets and a big part of their european tour in '86. Can be seen on the video from Roskilde in Denmark, also on Cliff'Em'All.
 
I've never seen Metallica live nor would I ever pay the money to see them live BUT I've watched hundreds of live videos ranging from the Burton days all the way up to shows within the last year... Lars just gets worse and worse. He can't play his own drum parts at all, his timing is all over the place, and the rest of the band looks miserable having to follow along with him.

His recorded drum parts are actually cool, ESPECIALLY Kill Em All and Ride The Lightning. Hell, even that new Lux Eterna song kicks ass. But he is just so sloppy live. I wish I could get paid millions of dollars a year to be a crappy drummer.

And die hard Lars fans are worse than hardcore political followers. Don't you dare say anything about him or they will make it their mission to prove you wrong through nonsensical rants and quoting false "facts".
That is true (him being sloppy live) he always has been, but the last couple of years he has sounded more on point than what he's had in decades.
