Metallica’s Robert Trujillo is reflecting on a harrowing run-in he and his family had with the members of the Manson Family in the ‘70s. 
金属乐队的罗伯特·特鲁希略回忆了他和他的家人在70年代与曼森家族成员的一次令人痛苦的争吵。

The bass player, 59, appeared on the band The Offspring’s podcast Time to Relax with The Offspring on Thursday and told the story about the time he took cover during the Manson family’s infamous raid of a Hawthorne, California army surplus store that resulted in a shootout in 1971.
这位现年59岁的贝斯手周四出现在The Offspring乐队的播客《Time to Relax with The Offspring》中,讲述了1971年曼森家族袭击加州霍桑一家军队剩余物资商店时他躲起来的故事,那次袭击导致了一场枪战。

The heavy metal musician explained that the event took place shortly after Charles Manson was arrested and he, two of his cousins and his father happened to be staying at his grandparents’ apartment in Hawthorne at the time. 
这位重金属音乐家解释说,这件事发生在查尔斯·曼森被捕后不久,当时他、他的两个堂兄弟和他的父亲碰巧住在他祖父母在霍桑的公寓里。

“Long story short: Charlie Mason just had gotten arrested and [I’m in] Hawthorne, California, I’m staying at my grandma’s house,” Trujillo recalled, setting the scene for the podcast hosts. “The army surplus shop there around the corner on Hawthorne Boulevard was robbed.”
“长话短说:查理·梅森刚刚被捕,我在加州霍桑,我住在我奶奶家,”特鲁希略回忆道,为播客主持人设定场景。“霍桑大道拐角处的军用品店被抢了。”

“Basically, the Manson Family had this grand scheme — you can check it out on the internet — they were gonna rob the gun store and get their ammo and everything, and they were gonna go to LAX,” he explained of the incident. “They were going to go to LAX and their plan was to hijack a 747 and demand that Charlie gets sent to them, and they’re gonna take this plane to God knows where. This is what they were thinking.”
“基本上,曼森家族有一个宏大的计划——你可以在网上查到——他们要抢劫枪支店,拿走弹药和所有东西,然后他们要去洛杉矶国际机场,”他解释说。“他们要去洛杉矶国际机场,他们的计划是劫持一架747飞机,要求把查理送到他们那里,然后他们要把这架飞机带到上帝知道的地方。这就是他们的想法。”

The rocker continued, “Obviously, the plan didn’t work. Cops show up. There’s a shootout.”
摇滚歌手继续说道:“很明显,这个计划行不通。警察来了。发生了枪战。”

The Metallica member then opened about his frightening experience going into hiding. He shared, “We were hearing gunshots, the whole deal. So all of a sudden you get the [police helicopters], and they’re flying around. They’re talking through their intercom, whatever they got going up there:
这位金属乐队成员随后讲述了他躲藏起来的可怕经历。他说:“我们听到了枪声,整个过程。所以突然间你就有了(警用直升机),它们到处飞来飞去。他们在用对讲机说话,不管上面有什么:

‘Everybody, take cover’ … And so my dad turns off all the lights. We’re hiding in the shower. And it was really eerie. It was kind of like that scene in Close Encounters [of the Third Kind] where you see the light come through the windows.”
“所有人找地方躲起来”……于是我爸爸关掉了所有的灯。我们躲在浴室里。这真的很可怕。这有点像《第三类接触》中的场景,你看到光从窗户射进来。”

“My dad at one point opened the door to see what was going on — ‘Get the f--- back in the house now,’” he added, mimicking his father’s intense tone.
“我父亲一度打开门,想看看发生了什么事——‘给我滚回房子里去,’”他接着说,模仿着父亲紧张的语气。

Trujillo explained that one member of the Manson Family ended up hiding in the carport that belonged to his grandparents’ unit at their apartment complex. “He was hiding in the carport, so of course they surrounded our place,” he said. “Luckily, there was a laundry room that separated the unit that we were in, so he would’ve gone into the window of the laundry room, which could have been the window of the house and then taken hostage.”
特鲁希略解释说,曼森家族的一名成员最后躲在了他祖父母在他们公寓大楼的车库里。“他躲在车库里,所以他们当然包围了我们的地方,”他说。“幸运的是,我们所在的单位之间有一间洗衣房,所以他可能会从洗衣房的窗户进去,这可能是房子的窗户,然后被劫持为人质。”

Trujillo ended the anecdote by joking that he and his cousins went looking for bullets the morning after, and admitted that he was often afraid of the cult activity in the area growing up as a child in Venice Beach. 
特鲁希略开玩笑说,他和他的堂兄弟们第二天早上去找子弹,并承认他小时候在威尼斯海滩长大,经常害怕该地区的邪教活动。

According to Vox, Mary Brunner, Catherine “Gypsy” Share, Dennis Rice, Charles Lovett, Larry Bailey, and Kenneth Como were involved with the Aug. 21, 1971 incident that led to a shootout with the authorities and Brunner and Share being injured. 
据Vox报道,玛丽·布伦纳、凯瑟琳·“吉普赛”·Share、丹尼斯·赖斯、查尔斯·洛维特、拉里·贝利和肯尼斯·科莫参与了1971年8月21日的事件,导致了与当局的枪战,布伦纳和Share受伤。

Trujillo appeared on the podcast as Metallica is in the midst of their massive M72 World Tour in support of 72 Seasons, their 11th studio album that dropped in April.
特鲁希略出现在播客中,当时金属乐队正在进行大规模的M72世界巡演,以支持他们4月份发行的第11张录音室专辑《72 Seasons》。

The Grammy winners kicked off their tour in early April and has four more shows to wrap up in the U.S. this November.
这位格莱美奖得主于4月初开始了他们的巡演,今年11月在美国还有四场演出要结束。

In 2024, the “Master of Puppets” group will tour Europe in the spring and return to North America for their No Repeat Weekend leg of their M72 World Tour, which sees them playing two shows a weekend with a different set and openers each night. 
2024年,“木偶大师”团队将于春季在欧洲巡演,然后回到北美参加他们M72世界巡演的“不重复周末”,他们将在周末举行两场演出,每场演出的布景和开场都不同。
