Metallica and Lady Gaga perform "Moth Into Flame" at the 59th Annual GRAMMY Awards. Unfortunately, it seemed like James' mic wasn't working. In a true rock and roll moment, they made it work and shared a mic. Download Metallica's "Moth Into Flame" on Amazon or iTunes.
Last night, Metallica and Lady Gaga’s performance at the 59th Annual Grammy Awards was temporarily hampered by microphone issues.

While they didn’t name a specific responsible party, they explained that the incident “was, of course, accidental.” read more at PITCHFORK
