Clint re-vamps the "a year in the life of Metallica" series picking up with 2012 which, although wasn't a heavy touring year with no new album saw the release of the Beyond Magnetic EP, the 20th anniversary Black Album tour of European festivals, a record breaking eight night residency in Mexico City preparing for the Through the Never taping, the launch of the very cool but ultimately ill-fated Orion Festival and the formation of Blackened Recordings, making Metallica the arbiters of their creative destiny.

Special guest Drew Holcomb, singer-songwriter and founder of Moon River festival, stops by to tell us all about what it takes to start and sustain a music festival. Clint also reads listen e-mail and thanks a whipping TWENTY SIX new patrons! Enjoy!
