Metallica's James Hetfield, alongside other artists such as Pearl Jam’s Eddie Vedder and Alice Cooper, took part in the online VetsAid 2020: Home for the Holidays event on December 12. The event was organized by The Eagles guitarist Joe Walsh and was created to help raise sorely needed funds to veterans services groups across the country.
"For the past three years we’ve held this glorious traveling circus in cities across the country with a day-long rock and roll festival and jobs fair to support our veterans and their families," said Walsh. "Typically, we fill up an arena, play for 5 hours, and raise a bunch of money — nearly $1.5 million to date — to help our veterans get the care and support they deserve. But because of COVID this year, we’re going virtual as so many things are."
