Paul, in a past life I had an FJ ute drag car called "OLD55", guess who used it on a float in the MOOMBA procession, yes the rock band OLD55. not as good as Metallica, but still a hoot for me.

Great pics. Saw them on the 15th in Melbourne. Can't hardly wait until November when I'm going to see them again. I like them even more knowing James is a ford man. Fire....to begin whipping dance of the dead.

Im quite impressed at how calm you guys were in the video.
Because to be frank i would have been hyperventilating and would have driven off the road or into the side of the XY in excitement!!!
You guys were very very luck but how cool would it be to drive him around!!!!!!
