Lars Ulrich of Metallica has said that he would love to join Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds.
The drummer slot in the band is curenntly filled by Jeremy Stacey but Lars says that he is alaways available for a guest spot. Speaking to NME, the heavy metal sticksman said:
"I'm hard pressed to think of anyone I would rather drum with than Noel Gallagher. I have to say the fellow with the Clockwork Orange get up at the back is doing a stellar job, when I saw them in L.A in December it was fabulous. You know, if Noel and the other 37,000 drummers on this planet turn him down I'll certainly play with him."
Adding: "I'm certainly not sure he'd ever want to pick me, but I'd put together a pretty solid groove thing back there. I'd make the songs bounce to the best of my ability. Although I'm not sure he'd take me quite seriously."
Meanwhile, Ulrich is the subject of new film Mission To Lars in which an autistic man travels across America in a bid to meet him.
