About Me

In Loving Memory of
~*~John Erik Robert Thurman~*~
October 9th 1983 - September 12th 2005

I was born on August 3, 1963 in the city of Downey near Los Angeles, California.
I was brought up in a strict Christian Science house hold, my older brother Dave had guitars in their garage which he used to play about on. My mother tried to get me more interested in classical music, and even paid for 2 years worth of piano training...
Whilst not in Metallica I enjoy hunting and beer(not so much anymore)... Some of my influences on becoming a master of lyrics for Metallica were, Black Sabbath, Iron Maiden, Diamond Head, and Motorhead.
My jobs before my singing career were, a janitor, and a sticker factory worker. I had a band before Metallica, and it was called "Obsession".
I am the quiet person in the band; usually in interviews i don't talk as much, I hate interviews. But, when it comes to concerts, I am the call of the Devil!!! My parents were Christian Scientists, the "big" jobs. I liked to lie low, a quiet kid into sports. My older step-brother played the drums in a local band. This made me turn to rock in general; Black Sabbath. In my junior years, me and his family all moved to Brea, California. This is where I started out with his guitar playing. I played in the "high school party band" called Obsession, playing mostly Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath.
Around this time, I got hooked up with Ron McGovney, who was soon to be metallica's first bass player. Then after, I got to meet Lars Ulrich through a newspaper called the "Recycler". This is when Metallica was truely first formed. I found myself playing the guitar instead of singing so that he could concentrate on guitar. They started to look for a front-man, but it never worked out. I continued to do both singing and rhythm guitar playing. With that, Metallica were on their way to popularity!
Favorites: Drink: Coors Light, Pacifico, Bombay Gin Martinis, Caffney's Irish Ale
Food: Mexican, meat-n-potatoes, beer
Sports Teams: Oakland Raiders, San Jose Sharks, San Jose Clash
Previous Career: I have worked in a sticker factory, as a high school janitor, and as a mover.
Likes: Hunting, fishing, anonymity, snowboarding, street hockey, water skiing, cigars
Listens To: Black Sabbath, Motorhead, Skynard, Thin Lizzy
Heroes: Pops Hetfield, Clint Eastwood
First Concert: Aerosmith & AC/DC, 1978, Long Beach, California
Rugged, honest, stubborn
Influences: Black Sabbath, Motorhead, Ted Nugent, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Tom Waits, Nick Cave

My Interests

In the last few weeks there have been a lot of rumors flying around saying that I was detained by airport security in London while on tour in Europe. I'm here to tell you that it never happened . . . pure fabrication! The story is simply that there is no story . . . it's scary how gullible and easily fooled the press is! With that said, we had a blast out there on the "Sick of the Studio" tour and big thanks to everyone who came out to the shows and to the crew who made it happen. Now back to the studio . . .
