Awesome clip. I have to say Trujillo definitely came across as the most comfortable of all of them!

I don't know anything about the band but the money clip was good...altho you do wonder how much of it was
for the cameras. Not disputing the sum mentioned, but why mention it for public consumption...?

[fretmeister]

It's only an advance. Not a gift.

[spectoremg]

Yes I suspect the million bucks comment was for the cameras.

Very interesting video, he was the best for that band by far I thought

Note the Lars Ulrich comment "That maybe what he says, but it's about what I feel."

And they knew to listen to Lars.

Drumming abilities aside (and how much of a dick he comes across as in this film), he's a very successful business man. His opinion is generally worth a listen!

I was really referring to the weight of the drummers input when selecting a bass player.
