Lars Ulrich Blows Off Blow Thanks to Noel Gallagher

Lars Ulrich loves Oasis. Lars Ulrich loves Oasis so much that when Noel Gallagher decided to quit cocaine cold turkey, so did he. Well, a few years after the fact.

"A couple of years ago I was like, 'You know? Enough of this. I don't need it,'" the Metallica drummer said. "It was literally something that happened one morning, like 'Y'know? F--- that.' I was very impressed with Noel. As you know, I'm an Oasis fanatic, and Noel was like [adopts stentorian tone] 'You know what? No more cocaine!' And I thought, 'If he can do it, everybody else can do it.'"

We're pretty sure he intended that as a compliment.

He unintentionally insulted his idol. That's funny. On a different note, and after hearing two songs from their upcoming album, I would definitely like to see Metallica on this tour. On a different note, I didn't know Lars was into that garbage either. Same with the cocaine.
