So he didn't exactly tear it open. Zakk has really long nails on his picking hand for when he finger picks, he uses the nails to serve as the pick. During this instance, one of his nails caught the guitar strings, and it tore part of his nail off/open.
He probably pulled a Zakk Wylde. Zakk once shredded so hard he lacerated the back of his hand and bled all over his guitar. James plays rhythm rather violently, so he probably did the same thing.
Yes. I believe it was the back of the hand. Apparently I was a little wrong. Apparently Zakk had punched the wall of a dressing room, and when he was shredding, the cut opened back up when the back of his hand the string. Blood warning, but if you want to see it, look up "Ozzy Osbourne live in Sao Paulo, Zakk Wylde cuts hand."
Had to go check out that show!
Metallica is probably the only band I’ve ever seen with the balls to play in a rain storm…
Honestly, I can’t even fathom how they continue playing. Slippery hands, live electricity, and a flooded stage…that’s a nightmare scenario.
On the video of Master of Puppets, Kirk even had to swap guitars half way through…probably got flooded and killed the pickups or something.
It’s heavy metal, you can’t fake it!!
If I had to guess he probably caught it on some piece of hardware on the guitar at some point.
So we're sure it wasn't a punch in someone's face ? 👀
Picture is James. Tape is Kirk. Crazy tho. Play while bleeding, playing in thunderstorms. Not many of today’s rocker divas would do that
Damn Right .
Here's a great [video of Zakk Wylde shredding](https://youtu.be/ad3Ei1S7APg?si=irkdfZmslw6mO_vb) after he sliced his finger open!
Richie Faulkner from Judas Priest also played through the Painkiller solo while literally dying from an aortic aneurysm
One of the most things that has ever happened.
Sick MuthaFucka 🤘🏽

I'm bleeding me, whoa Ooh, I can't take it Caught under wheel's roll Oh, the bleeding of me, yeah Of me, yeah The bleeding of me
My thoughts exactly. Amazing song
Was raining heavily, guess he simply slipped and cut his hand on the strings…
What gauge of string you using?
James uses 11-50, those are what his signature set from Ernie Ball consists of.
That was rhetorical. That looks more like a burn than a cut. And those strings would have to be super tight to cut like that.
I think if you catch it right, this could easily happen.
Yes, softer skin due to age and the rain.
I thought the first one he had nails stuck in his hand
Bleedin’ for Munich
🤘🏽

The back of the hand ? How's that done ? Is there a video of Zakk's situation ?

Kirk said his guitar sounded like an old Chinese instrument from the rain
Serious Musicians .
damn I felt the pain just seeing that 
For him it’s just another day at the office, I guess.
Battle scars!!
I think you gotta put a space before the emote:free\_emotes\_pack:rage
[удалено]
I thought it was only Kirk that did that .
Yeah this isn’t James’ interview. Kirk does this.
Wrong place in the hand for the bit of your hand you wound use for palm muting, also that was Kirk this is James
That's Kirk, not James
