Metallica have issued the following update regarding their Black Box exhibit, Orion: A Tribute To Cliff Burton:
“For our final installment of Orion: A Tribute to Cliff Burton, we’re bringing you intimate conversations with seven people who knew Cliff best: James Hetfield, Ray Burton, Zach Harmon, Jim Martin, Les Claypool, Charlie Benante, and John Cruz. Bandmates, a father, friends, and fellow musicians, these men share Cliff’s profound impact on their lives in their own words.”

Metallica adds: “Curating an exhibit to honor the beloved Cliff Burton was a true passion project. Thanks to his family, friends, peers, and fans, we were able to paint a complete picture of a man who lived a brief life but left an immense impact.
“Over 150 artifacts comprise collections like “Cliff’s Legacy,” “Castro Valley Life,” “The Music,” “On Tour,” “Off-Stage,” “Cliff’s Gear,” and “In Print.” Cliff’s character shines through each piece, allowing us to connect with the man so few had the pleasure of knowing.”
