Metallica and Run-DMC: The Big Dogs

“Dream big and dare to fail, because this is living proof that it is possible to make a dream come true.”  - James Hetfield, frontman-guitarist of Metallica.

Cleveland got an earful April 4 as old-school musicians Metallica and Run-DMC worked their induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Playing some of their greatest hits such as “Enter Sandman” and “Master of Puppets”, Metallica revamped their hard-core reputation. According to Entertainment Weekly , they set out to “wake things up”, and were definitely successful.

Rapper Eminem presented the honor to hip-hop masters Run-DMC, calling them “the baddest of the bad and the coolest of the cool.” (Not a bad compliment at all from one of today’s most popular musicians…)

Did you watch the ceremony? Which bands to YOU want to see recieve this honor in the future?
