Lars Ulrich Could See Two More Decades Of Metallica

Author Zito

Metallica is closing in on 40 years as a band, and still sells out arenas all over the world.

In fact, drummer Lars Ulrich thinks Metallica can keep going for another two decades.

In a new interview with Pollstar, the 56-year-old Ulrich said he can see playing “maybe to my early-to-mid-70’s” as long as he and his bandmates can avoid “falling prey to the physical ailments that can cut these things short”.

He says Metallica has found a good balance by playing about 50 shows per year, in two-week increments.  Either way, Ulrich insists “We’ll always get an incredible joy out of playing music”.
