Episode 91: M72 Relaunch in Syracuse Starring Kirk Hammett, Robert Trujillo, and the Fans
The week of April 22, 2025 on The Metallica Report…
As soon as the show in Syracuse concludes, Steffan and Renée are hard at work recapping the M72 2025 kickoff, still riding high off the energy in the JMA Wireless Dome. And no report is hotter off the press than Steff’s conversation with Robert Trujillo in the back of his van, leaving the venue. We also get the inside scoop from Robert and Kirk Hammett on what this year has in store for their doodles. Then, continuing our theme of instant reactions, our hosts catch up with fans as they exit the very first screening of the band’s new documentary, Metallica Saved My Life.
