James Hetfield makes first public appearance since rehab return for L.A. museum exhibit of his classic cars
Hetfield’s attendance at the Petersen Automotive Museum reception was announced weeks earlier, and on Thursday the rocker showed up as scheduled at the “Reclaimed Rust: The James Hetfield Collection” pre-opening ceremony, which was also attended by his Metallica band mate Robert Trujillo,The singer also participated in a Q&A at the event. “There’s no other place like this,” Hetfield said. “The Petersen is the pinnacle. It’s the best place to have your vehicles.
“Reclaimed Rust: The James Hetfield Collection” opens to the public on February 1st. In addition to cars from Hetfield’s garage — like his 1953 Buick Skylark, a purple 1956 Ford F-100 pickup and ” ’36 Ford in bare metal called Iron Fist” — the exhibit will also feature instruments and memorabilia from his personal collection.
In September 2019, Metallica canceled a planned tour of Australia and New Zealand so Hetfield could reenter a rehabilitation center. “As most of you probably know, our brother James has been struggling with addiction on and off for many years. He has now, unfortunately, had to re-enter a treatment program to work on his recovery again,” Lars Ulrich, Kirk Hammett, and Robert Trujillo said in a statement at the time.
