'The Ultimate Metallica Show' Recap: Demos, Live Tracks + More

I know I say it every week, but this past weekend's Ultimate Metallica Show was a lot of fun. Thank you for letting me crash your weekend for a couple of hours as we celebrated all things Mighty Metallica.

As usual, we covered a lot of ground together, including spinning some killer live tracks and heavy cover songs. But the standout moment for me was pulling out a demo from Reload that a lot of fans probably haven't heard. It comes from one one of Metallica's exclusive Fan Can releases, and you can see which track I played in the full recap and playlist below.

Some of Our Favorite Live Photos of Lars Ulrich

As iconic as James Hetfield is, as much of a shredder as Kirk Hammett is and as crazy as Robert Trujillo is onstage, there might be no member more associated with Metallica than Lars Ulrich.

Afterall, he's the reason the band even exists. He's a major part of the songwriting process. He's the voice that stood up for Metallica and musicians across the globe in the wake of Napster.

After hours and hours of rifling through photos of Ulrich, we whittled this list down to just a few of our favorite live shots from the last 20 years. Of course, there's no way to encapsulate Ulrich in a mere photograph, but as you will no doubt be able to tell, you can get pretty close.
