LAMB OF GOD's space gig dream

LAMB OF GOD drummer Chris Adler wants his band to be the first to play a show in space.

He's hoping he can persuade Virgin mogul Richard Branson to let them fly on his Virgin Galactic spaceship when commercial flights begin.

And he says the outfit will begin work on a new album once they've taken a break to deal with the emotional strain associated with Randy Blythe's Czech manslaughter ordeal.

Adler tells Metal Injection he came up with his space plan after Metallica beat him to his ambition to play in Antarctica.

"I think if we approached Richard Branson in the right way, we could help them prove how safe it is," the drummer explains. "Take a heavy metal band to space and we're all going to get back just fine."

Asked how he'll manage to play drums in zero gravity, he replies: "I'll worry about that when I get there."
