Heavy Metal Bands do not always get positive press, but when Metallica does something positive…..

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) – Metallica’s call to fans to work at food banks last year was such a success, the band is doing it again this year. Metallica says more than 50 food banks — twice as many as last year — will participate in the
Within My Hands Day of Service on May 22.   The band members are asking fans to sign up through Metallica.com for a day of volunteering at local food banks.   The food banks will only take volunteers that day who are signed up.
