A new kind of groupie is interested in the heavy metal band Metallica’s tour in Europe, including Shell, big-rig and electric vehicle manufacturers, and producers of hydrogen, biofuels, and LNG. It has less to do with the music than the alternative fuels keeping the buses rolling on the 2-month, 7,200-mile journey across nine countries.
