Creando lección...
1
It's difficult for me to comprehend that the only thing
2
that you feel when you look back on the last 20 years is rooted in the Metallica thing.
3
Okay.
4
I'll explain in as simple terms as I can, not to stultify you, but to just make it really easy.
5
I had nothing.
6
Then I had everything.
7
Then I had nothing again.
8
And it was okay going from nothing to everything to nothing.
9
But then having someone stand on the back of my head and keep me under water made it even harder for me.
10
I've been erased from any involvement.
11
The quotes that I was never meant to be in here anyways.
12
I was just filling a spot.
13
I was just a temporary guy.
14
I was a fucking loser and a drunk.
15
I got kicked out.
16
All the horrible things that were said immediately after my firing.
17
I agree, I should have been fired because I was dangerous because of my disease.
18
But watching for so many years the band continue to become successful and successful and successful and us to never address,
19
you know, the way that I was let go.
20
My god, Lars, you guys woke me up and said, you know what, you're out.
21
And I asked you, what, no warning?
22
I said, no second chance.
23
And you guys said, no, go.
24
Good God, man, I didn't get a chance.
25
And I've lived, and yeah, maybe for some people, you know, 18 years is a long time.
26
For me, it seems like yesterday I woke up and I look up and I see the guys that I love, that are my extended family.
27
Gotta remember, all I had was my mom.
28
All I had was you and James.
29
We had dreams together, and I sold everything to join that dream. And then it ended.
30
And I agree with you for doing what you did.
31
because of the nature of the disease.
32
Don't kid yourself.
33
I mean, if it...
34
There was ways to address what was going on.
35
You know, with my problem.
36
And who I am sober is totally different from who I am drunk.
37
We never gave it a try.
38
We never gave it a chance.
39
Would it have worked?
40
As much as I loved being with you guys, I'm sure it would have.
41
And coming down to the part about the violence,
42
you know, if someone, if I was at a party and I saw someone hit you again, I'd break a leg again in a second.
43
That's just my nature.
44
I'm overprotective to the people that I love.
45
You know?
46
And every time I see Phil, you know, I feel bad for him.
47
But I wasn't gonna let him hurt you.
48
Who's Phil?
49
Sandoval, from Armored Saint.
50
Don't you remember me breaking his leg?
51
I don't remember it was him, I remember the incident on the...
52
Yeah, he pushed you down and he hurt you.
53
I made sure he didn't hurt you again.
54
I'm gonna fuck with my band members.
55
Um...
56
I had this clear vision, which I don't know if I've ever told you, but the night where we.. we decided to let you go, a couple of days before we let you go,
57
and we played some show, and me and you were just sitting there, and I think we were smoking some pot, and being very mellow and I just remember
58
this clear vision of just being overwhelmed with sadness
59
and emotion about what was about to go down literally like eight hours after that.
60
Not saying in any way that I was not equally responsible for being part of making
61
that decision but at the same time feeling just an overwhelming sadness
62
and guilt because I really felt that when all the bullshit went away, a lot of the kind of the boasting and and the He-Man and all that bullshit sort of went away,
63
that you were a really tender person.
64
I felt that you had this really tender side to you that I was really attracted to, or really felt comfortable with, you know what I mean?
65
And I just, I think that's always been there.
66
And that's why I think I sought you out.
67
I'm not mad at you, Lars.
68
I'm not.
69
You know, and I don't want anything from anybody.
70
You know, I still have my dreams.
71
I'm glad that James is getting help.
72
I really am.
73
I wish that James was here.
74
I wish Cliff was here.
75
Thank you.

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?

Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
