Is Metallica Performing at Super Bowl LX? Lars Ulrich Says …<\/a> originally appeared on Parade<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Did you know it’s been more than 15 years since a rock band performed at the Super Bowl Halftime Show? That’s right! The Who took the stage in 2010, and ever since, it’s been pop, hip-hop, and R&B acts.<\/p>\n

Of course, all of those performances were incredible\u2014including Kendrick Lamar at Super Bowl LVIII\u2014but will a true rock band ever grace the stage again? Well, according to Metallica’s Lars Ulrich, it’s a possibility.<\/p>\n

During a Wednesday, August 6, interview with Howard Stern, Ulrich, 61, was thrilled by the idea of playing the Super Bowl.<\/p>\n

“F–k yeah, of course, we would. First of all, we would do it. Second of all, to do it in San Francisco would be a dream come true and would be the right fit. We haven\u2019t been approached,” he said. “Certainly, as somebody who\u2019s represented San Francisco all over the world and shouted for decades about San Francisco and our love for the Bay Area, that part of it is the right fit. Ultimately, it\u2019s not our decision.”<\/p>\n

Moreover, Ulrich, who has been drumming with Metallica for 44 years, discussed the band nabbing a residency at the Las Vegas Sphere.<\/p>\n

“I\u2019m not going to confirm anything, because there\u2019s nothing to confirm. But I\u2019m not going to deny it, because we\u2019re all such fans of this venue. All of our managers and our production people have been there and looked at it. It\u2019s something that we\u2019re considering, [but] nothing is etched in stone or green-lit. It\u2019s something that we\u2019re looking at at some point when the 2026 tour is done,” the nine-time Grammy winner told Stern, 71.<\/p>\n

Metallica was formed in 1981 and is comprised of Ulrich on drums, James Hetfield on vocals and rhythm guitar, Kirk Hammett on lead guitar, and Robert Trujillo on bass.<\/p>\n
