Metallica’s Kirk Hammett suffered a bit of “Karma” Friday as the guitarist slipped off-stage mid-concert, days after wearing a shirt that inflamed Taylor Swift fans.

At Metallica’s June 13 concert in Budapest, Hammett donned a shirt that read “Taylor Swift Is a CIA Psyop.” Photos of Hammett in the garment eventually caught the attention of Swifties, who lashed out at the guitarist on Reddit and social media.
