The memory remains …

Late in 1981 an ad in The Recycler, an LA weekly, reads: "Drummer looking for other metal musicians to jam with Tygers of Pan Tang, Diamond Head and Iron Maiden." Guitarists James Hetfield and Hugh Tanner of Leather Charm answered the advertisement and on March 14, 1982, Metallica makes their live debut on the Radio City stage in Aneheim, California. #metallica #80smetal #80srock #hughtanner #jameshetfield #larsulrich #rock #rockmusic #music…
