METALLICA Bassist Performs With TRUJILLO TRIO At 'Orion Music + More'; Video Available

July 2, 2012

TRUJILLO TRIO, the band consisting of METALLICA bassist Robert Trujillo, American skateboarder Tony Trujillo (who is apparently unreleated to Robert) and Tony's wife, Ashley "Trixie" Trujillo, played a short set at the Vans "Off The Wall" tent during METALLICA's two-day festival Orion Music + More which took place on June 23-24 at the popular Atlantic City, New Jersey concert venue Bader Feld. You can now watch fan-filmed video footage of the performance below.

Orion Music + More featured multiple live music stages plus a lifestyle element that reflects each of METALLICA's bandmembers' many personal interests.

When asked why METALLICA would want to do their own festival, guitarist/vocalist James Hetfield said in a recent interview, "First of all, because we can. Why wouldn't you? We're just trying to bring a little more of a mix to what is going on. . . . I think the Europeans are able to look at a festival more as an event than 'my favorite band is playing.' We're not necessarily trying to reproduce that in the States, but we'd like to bring a little taste of that here."
