Hey Bob - thanks for chiming in. Not sure how your metal roof was configured, but noise is usually a non-factor when the metal is laid directly onto the plywood with underlayment in between. The wood and underlayment 'deadens' any potential sound effects.
In this area, there are metal roofs everywhere now - it's really 'caught on'. It's funny now that I'm going in that direction, how much more attention I'm paying to everyone's metal roof. I have to be careful not to hold anyone up behind me due to my rubber necking.
