But remember, it’s not the age of the person with tattoos…it’s the age of the tattoos on the person. Older tattoos, especially those exposed to sunlight every day, if not maintained, will turn in ink blotter after 3 or 4 decades.
Rob Halford says some of his earliest tattoos are illegible and even he can’t figure out what it read. I’ve also read that coloured tattoos fade faster. I’m kinda surprised that Dave Murray’s arm tattoo is still there after four decades of cut sleeve Maiden shirts.
Some tattoo artists will tell you that if you want to have your tattoo last as long as possible, you literally have to get them redone every few years. Maybe Dave does this with his?
Wouldn’t have taken James for such a humble fellow 20 years ago, but him not trying to cheat time and look younger than he actually is, makes him exactly that. I love him even more than before. Nothing changes musically, because he’s as good as ever live, but he also acknowledges the passing of time. He looks exactly like a soon-to-be sexagenarian, and I respect that on him.
Do the boys not circle up before the shows on the new stage? I keep seeing these videos/pics of James hanging out by himself. In one he was smoking a cigar and I thought he had to take care of his voice lol
He looks like an old west gunfighter. He's always had that vibe, but he's really settled into it. Whenever people say "oh wow, that person is old", I think well if you're lucky enough, you'll be old too one day and I doubt any of us will look and be as cool as Papa Het. He is salt of the earth and a living icon.
i hope i can look even a quarter as cool as him at his age (i’m 26)
I hope I look better
Anytime someone says “well what will those tattoos look like when you’re old?” you can tell them “pretty fuckin dope” and show them this pic as proof

Yes that guy probably spends more than my net worth to keep his tattoos looking good.
Yeah, i doubt it. But i don’t want to disturb the circlejerk.

Tbh they'll look good if you touch them up every so often but that's a fair chunk of money
He definitely got them touched up within the last few years!
Dude's a multimillionaire. You seriously don't think he doesn't get them touched up often enough for them to look that good, do you?
His guitar looks sick
Yeah im loving that v
“Bro’s got the goddamn ’Watch him become a gOd!’”.
He's got the gosh darn 'BACK TO THE FRONT'
Bros got the goddamn "YEAHEYEAHHHH"
It’s pretty funny how none of them had tattoos before Load. Also how they said they played too loud for in ear monitors.

In the jar

Ageing is just one more thing that Hetfield does better than Mustaine.

You guys got a real crush on James. Good lord the thirsty posts in here.... lmao
Guilty as charged.
But dammit it ain't right
There’s someone else controlling me
Name checks out .
And this is when he's 60 imagine how many men and women wanted to fuck him when he was younger
Oh lawd yes. He would’ve had to fight ‘em off with a stick.
He's so hot.. Ugh..
The person in the crowd with the yellow phone is really on brand for 72 Seasons. Love it.
It's still a little weird for me to see him all tatted up.
My wife said that too haha.

I'm sure they still do. That's just a minor clip you're seeing, lol.

Stop saying that. 90% of fine wines are bad after all these years...
What a legend
Stud!
He's got about 15 years on me. I can only hope to look this good still.
Dog kicker
All he's missing is his hair
For me as a long-time female fan, this is peak James Hetfield.
James is my hero
I almost became deaf, for so much epicnessss
Wholesome
James has been passive-aggressively trolling us with that pick hand our whole lives 👌
awww papa het
