Kirk Hammett \u2013 guitarist with San Francisco, California-based heavy metal group Metallica \u2013 hosted his first annual horror convention, entitled Kirk Von Hammett\u2019s Fear FestEviL, on February 6-8th, 2014 at The Regency Ballroom in San Francisco, California. A three-day event, Fear FestEvil included musical performances by Exodus, Carcass, Death Angel and Orchid. In addition to hosting the convention, Hammett joined Exodus and Death Angel for their encore performances.<\/p>\n

Exodus guitarist Gary Holt issued the following statement in announcing the event: \u201cExodus is stoked as fuck to announce that none other than Kirk Von Hammett himself will be jamming with us during our encore at Fear FestEviL! What song? Hmm, that remains to be seen! I guess you will have to be there to find out.\u201d<\/p>\n

An inaugural Exodus member from 1980 until 1983, Hammett not only devised the group\u2019s name, but was the first Exodus member to initially meet original vocalist Paul Baloff, subsequently introducing him to the group\u2019s ranks. In 1983, the axeman would subsequently replace Dave Mustaine (Megadeth) as a member of Metallica. Hammett, meanwhile, produced 1986 Death Angel demo Kill As One<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Too Much Horror Business \u2013 The Kirk Hammett Collection<\/em> was released in 2012. An oversized 228-page hardback, it documents the man\u2019s love of the horror genre and features more than 300 photographs of items from Hammett\u2019s horror memorabilia collection. And as well, the tome includes three interviews with the guitarist.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
