Where did
James's ring with a skull and "wolf" earring?
The ring formerly belonged to Cliff Burton, who bought it in the store The Great Frog in London. Ibid,
James bought a earring.
What happened at a concert in Montreal on August 8, 1992?
Before the concert pyrotechnics informed the group that will use the new special effects: during the Fade To Black at the edges of the scene will be fireworks. However, pyrotechnics forgot to warn that the old special effects also remain. Being sure that the fireworks will not be old,
James stood next to the old fireworks plant and a sheaf of flame height of 12 feet set him on fire with the left side.
What groups other than METALLICA played
James?
Before METALLICA been Obsession, Phantom Lord and Leather Charm. Later, he was the drummer in Spastic Children Project.
Why, instead of Flying V,
James began playing the Explorer?
Explorer has always been a spare guitar
James, but he played on it very rarely. But one day Flying V broke down and
James found that the Explorer sounds perfectly suited for him. But during the speeches are often used and Flying V.
James is still riding on a skateboard?
Not any more, but just in case the concert contract contains the item "NO SKATEBOARDING". Now he rides a snowboard - snow falling not so painful and difficult to break the arm.
He actually tied up with alcohol?
Yes. Now he is drinking non-alcoholic beer and mineral water.

James listens now?
Rocket From The Crypt, Gov't Mule, Corrosion Of Conformity.
