Prime Time Russia is reporting:
Volcanic ash meant the American heavy-metal band METALLICA had to take the train to Russia for their gig. But that inconvenience seemed small for frontman James Hetfield after he was allegedly robbed in a Moscow restaurant.
Hetfield claims he and his bandmates had steaks and salads worth around 8,000 roubles ($270). The frontman paid by card, but later he saw that he had been billed over 19,000 roubles – that is twice the bill.
When he went back to the restaurant to complain, the management showed him a receipt for the disputed amount with his signature on it. Hetfield thinks his signature may have been forged.
