No Rock And Roll Fun

THERE YOU GO: The disappearance of the Metallica story from Ananova confirms that, yes, it was all a gimmicky stunt. But a well done one. After all, this is a band who sue their own fans, and on a day when a similar act really has said "you can't expect live shows to be any good..." and two senators have calculated one track on a P2P network is equal to two and half grand's worth of thieving, why on earth would you need to bother making things up? We took the story on good faith on the basis that Ananova were running with it. And we're sure its the sort of thing they'd like to do, anyway...
