Back in May of 1989 I did my second interview with Lars Ulrich, who called me up from Nagoya, Japan, while Metallica was touring behind its ….And Justice For All album.
A year earlier the band had taken part in the Monsters of Rock ’88 Tour, which saw them sharing the stage with Van Halen, Scorpions, Dokken, and Kingdom Come.
At one point in the conversation I asked Ulrich if he’d made buddies with many of the guys in the other bands on that tour.
Apparently he didn’t bond that tightly with the members of Scorpions.
