Metallica's recent Helping Hands 2020 streaming party to benefit their All Within My Hands foundation is now streaming until December 1 at this location. All funds raised by ticket purchases still go straight to the All Within My Hands Foundation to assist in their work of supporting communities in need.
Metallica thanks all those who supported AWMH by watching, donating and participating in the online auction. Thanks to the fans and generous sponsors, Metallica's first ever pay-per-view event live-streamed on November 14 has raised over $1.3 million thus far. Those funds will be used to work with partners at Feeding America and the American Association of Community Colleges, along with supporting Covid and disaster relief efforts in the coming months.
In other Metallica news, drummer Lars Ulrich revealed the band is really cracking down on the new material.
"We're three, four weeks into some pretty serious writing. And of all the shit — pandemics, fires, politics, race problems, and just fucking looking at the state of the world — it's so easy just to so fall into a depressive state. But writing always makes me feel enthusiastic about what's next. It's like, 'Fuck, there's an opportunity here to still make the best record, to still make a difference. To still do something that not even turns other people on, but turns me on.'"
