Videos: Metallica’s Kirk Hammett Performs with Exodus and Death Angel at Fear FestEviL

You may or may not recall (I did not) that Metallica wah-wah pedalist Kirk Hammett announced last year that since Metallica had so much luck with their other festival endeavor, he was starting a fest of his own, AND giving it the stupidest name possible (Kirk Von Hammett’s Fear FestEviL) so that if there’s a ever a Cool Tour Two its moniker won’t seem so silly. Gee, that was nice of him.

ANYWAY, Hammett did find time during the fest to perform with Death Angel and, perhaps more interestingly, Exodus… the band he was in before he joined Metallica. Although for Hammett this may have been a glance into an alternate timeline he never lived, for Gary Holt it was a terrific reminder that he dodged an armor piercing bullet.
