September 27, 1986 in Sweden during the Master of Puppets tour was the tragic passing of the bassist Cliff Burton from Metallica.
Lars, Kirk, and James decided to continue the band in Cliffs honor, but need a new bassist.
Sarah Love is Courtney Love younger sister. Growing up, she played the bass guitar along side Courtney. Once word got out from Metallica and auditioned for the spot of the new bassist.
February 14, 1962. San Francisco, California.
Sarah Love was born in the world as a musician. Loud cries filled the room but had suddenly stopped as she heard the first music not. "Can you turn the music a bit louder? Think she likes it.." her father mumbled. The nurse cranked the radio up a bit, the once crying baby was now sleeping peaceful in her mother's arm.
Courtney and Sarah childhood was itinerant (constantly moving places). Nothing stopped their passion for music and instruments. Courtney got into singing as a young girl while her sister was more into instruments and decided to play anything she could get her hands on.
Their mom was more focused on school and education as they grew older wanting them to learn. Therefore, Sarah and Courtney decided to get a degree in art and music. Their parents didn't care as long they didn't drop out.
The sisters were like two peas in a pod. Who knew two girls could be a menace to society? Well, their parents that's for sure. They were like punks running around with adrenaline in their veins. Their blonde hair made them recognizable to other people, but Sarah had enough of her boring blonde hair and asked her older sister to help her dye it. Knowing, their mom would be so pissed. But they didn't give a shit, as they poured the brown hair dye spreading it all over Sarah's head. Let's just say it didn't end well in the end but it certainly changed Sarah.
October 18, 1985
As soon as they were old enough to be considered as an adult Courtney wanted to be in a band, aside with Sarah as the bassist. It worked out perfectly, until Courtney left one day leaving Sarah a note.
"Hey, sis.
I'll be leaving for awhile not sure when I'll be back, I need a break or something to get away from hell hole. Don't wait for me and don't stop playing the bass guitar. Be safe out there."
Love, Courtney.
Sarah was heartbroken and felt betrayed by her own sister. The passion she once felt for music was slowing disappear as she left the band and didn't want to touch her bass guitar. So she decided to get a job and store her bass guitar away in a storage room. That left her wondering, will she find her passion for music again?
