During the Fall 1984 semester, I was an 8th grader at Presidio Middle School. We knew that Robin Williams lived nearby, in ritzy Sea Cliff. But we had no idea, which house was his.
It was around this time that, via word of mouth from older teens, a "local band" was heavier and harder than the Bay Area's Jefferson Airplane, Journey, Night Ranger, Romeo Void, and Y&T. It turned out that this so-called "local band" was Metallica.
One Friday after school, a few of my friends went to China Beach. There, some older teens had a boombox, which was playing music unfamiliar to us. We would later learn that that music was Metallica's Ride The Lightning .
During the Spring 1986 semester, while I was a high school freshman, Metallica came out with Master Of Puppets . Because my high school drew from all of San Francisco's neighborhoods, various schoolmates swore that they had seen members of Metallica.
Kinda interesting that, all these years, Lars Ulrich has used Tama drums. In 1987 or so, one of my friends went to a bank on the NE corner of California & Polk. He said that Lars was with a woman, perhaps his mom, opening a bank account for her.
