Do you love or hate Dave Mustaine?
You have to love him he’s awesome and makes great music
Yes.
I like his music, part of personality, but I hate his other part of personality
Love his music (the old stuff anyway). But he seems to be a prime candidate for the saying: "you should never meet your heroes."
Love.
Sounds like Dave’s an alright guy if you don’t have to work with him, or be around him, or have him look in your general direction.
This is true. Megadeth is my favorite metal band and I love Dave Mustaine. His attitude in making music is what people hated about him.
Or listen to him… Is he a talented musician? Absolutely, he done some really good stuff with MD but I’m not a huge fan of his vocals actually, he sounds a little bit like Billy Corgan…ish with that nasal/whining kind of pitch. My biggest issue with Dave though is his constant complaining, whining and what not about everyone else that apparently wronged him the last 40 years😂 I remember when he played together with Metallica, Anthrax and Slayer on the Big 4 tour. He did a interview about how he changed, how he moved on and that all of his attitude came from him being in a dark place mentally and all of that. That’s all fine of course, admitting your own problems is the most important factor to healing so far so good…until he once again starts thrashing Hetfield, Ulrich, King, The Pope, Ronald McDonald and more or less everyone but himself for his own problems😂 “I never done anything wrong in my life, how could I cause I’m the best person to ever be alive so therefore every thing bad is everyone else fault. I’m so happy and fortunate to be the most infallible, unerring and impeccable man in history and if you don’t believe me….F**K Y*U YOU MISERABLE PIECE OF S**T!!! IM HAPPY, IM SO HAPPY RIGHT NOW…ACTUALLY IM BEYOND HAPPY, IM SUPERDUPERHAPPY TEN MORE, NO! MAKE IT A THOUSAND MORE TIMES THAN HAPPINESS ITSELF💥”
LOL, sounds just like my ex gf. Great to be around, pain in the ass to be her bf
His attitude got him kicked out of Metallica
@@ericthomas917 yeah his shitty ASS-titude
R.I.P. Nick. You are truly missed.
Menza was one heck of a percussionist.
🤘
Nick Is proof no 2 drummers are exactly a like, Rust would have never happened with out the chemistry of Marty and Nick, it was a very speedy Era for the band
R.I.P. Dave ,Menza will live forever
@@sirchromiumdowns2015 Yep.
For those who don't know... Nick's dad, Don Menza, is the sax player on Mancini's Pink Panther theme song.
"No warning, no second chance." - Dave Mustaine to every former Megadeth member.
Man that's a gold line taken right from the behind the music Megadeth droogie edition 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Ha Ha that's right
"No lawyer's fee, no second chance" - Sepultura
i'd be pretty salty too to be honest
Which one of them didn't get a second chance?
Its true, Megadeth was always meant to be Daves ideas. But when Marty joined you can sense there was a "band" there and not just Daves ideas.
I love Marty so much. He has a lot of Japanese metal stuff he’s done and it’s always amazing.
I didn’t even listen to Megadeth very much until Marty joined the band.
After he left, Megadeth had another great album with Dystopia, but that’s Chris’ drumming that makes is shine.
Hands down, Marty is one of the most talented guitarists out of Maryland, up there with Frank Zappa, just a different style. 😊
Really? To have Marty tell it, he never wanted to play Metal in the first place.
Marty was the best thing Megadeth has ever had. Megadeth was by far at its peak while Marty was in the band.
My brother was in a band with a guy that use to play with Dave before he was in Metallica. He said Dave was a jerk, would tell every band member they sucked and weren’t good enough to be in a band with him, would drink a 5th of whiskey each practice, get violent, throw tantrums and then pass out.
😂 Sounds like a few people I used to know
@@f.frederickskitty2910 I think anyone that has ever been in a band has met a “Dave”. We always regret it 🤣
Sounds about right...
What’s your bro’s name and did he ever make it and prove Dave wrong? I hope he made it.
That's definitely Dave and he's a genius like Beethoven was
It is obvious why James, Cliff and Lars thought that Dave´s talent is not worth the drama that comes along with it. And Dave is very talented!
@metalhead6526 better at what?
"Talent"
Most people have no clue who AS is and cannot even name a single song by him.
DM’s a legit MetalGod and his level of creativity is exponentially more prolific and on a totally different level.
@metalhead6526totally agree! Way better!
Testament should’ve been in the Big 4 or 5 lol
I miss times, where you didn't know much about artists. You listen to the music and that was enough.
My e you are older than me, but as far as I remember we had magazines and they usually were packed with musicians interviews and on every single magazine I put hands on that had an article about Megadeth, Mustaine was talking smack about somebody. Thats why everyone knew he was a jerk back then
@@pandsanthi9072 oh I'm sure he was always like that. But back then you had to pay for the magazine to read that crap. Nowadays, you cannot escape it.
@@Threemicsrecords well Yes, but you could just borrow from a friend if you had a group of friends that were into metal or rock music. And at that time, even if you had no friends and could not afford one magazine, there was the MTV
@@Threemicsrecords You could, idk. Just not watch the videos if it bothers you that much. but yeah, Dave Mustaine being a dick is kind of unescapable, so even the birds on the tree know it...
Here here! 🤘
Dave needs to let it go. He has achieved what a minuscule fraction of people have ever done or will ever do. He is a famous rockstar who gets to do what he loves for a living, has seen the world, written classic songs, and made more money on one tour than 99% of people would ever make in several lifetimes.
"I've always seen Dave as someone who was just really, really sad, really angry, really frustrated about his situation with METALLICA, and he never could let that go,". "And, you know, I've always shown a lot of empathy for him, understanding that he was just pissed off". Kirk Hammett
Movies have 7 degrees of Kevin Bacon, Metal has Seven Degrees of Dave Mustaine.
I like that.
Bro has gone through throat cancer but still dropped an album
He could have "Faked it" like Nick "did"
It goes without saying , Dave mustine is a very talented man and to Say anything else would Be a gross exaggeration. However, it is all the rest of the bullshit that he pulls on a Personal and professional level and much Of it Is documented. I believe most of us ( fans like myself as we as others) already know Dave is his biggest fan and his own worst enemy.
His Anal Throat...
He got creeping death, from lying so many times about writing it
wooptee doo
Dave possesses genius, but is the _Karen_ of heavy metal.
LMAO. You summed up the entire video in one sentence.
That was legit.
I love Megadeth, but you are 101% correct man.
Well said dude, well said 👏 👏 haha. You nailed it.
He also looks like an old woman
Tales one to know one
Man got kicked out of metallica, created an amazing band , beat throat cancer , performing in pain and with scratchy voice because of his passion … a legend 💪🏻
Didn’t he also have some neurological / nerve issue in his hand for a time?
@@KitWriter Yep. Fell asleep in a chair and pinched his radial nerve. He's lucky he managed to recover from it as doctors said he would never play again.
That's metal af.
True.
@@alancaudwell9065don't forget, beat cancer as well.
Say what you want about Dave, he made a comeback against Metallica where most would have just let the situation ruin them.
Glad that he did it!
Ok.... And ???
The idea was not to go "Against" Metallica
The idea was to start "the best heavy metal band in the world"
the fact that your comment reflects that
the fact also that dave keeps bringing it up shows issues
i mean.. Good on him, of course, he's achieved a lot, No argument there
but "he made a comeback against metallica" ??
Metallica were never against him in the first place
so as i said
And ???
Also, this situation HAS ruined him
Holding a grudge for 40 years, is that not a ruin ?
@@martinkuliza You completely missed the point...which was that most musicians would give up after being kicked out of a band that went on to sell millions of records. Dave didn't give up.
'Metallica were never against him in the first place'??? You know Lars has openly admitted to listening and liking Peace Sells in secret, for fear of backlash from James. Metallica and Megadeth WERE very much against each other. Anyone that grew up in the 80s or 90s knew this, because it always kept resurfacing in the media in one form or another. And in the big picture, this competition was good for heavy metal.
@@scottenosh4548
See.....
Your comment shows that you're an idiot
Simple people are always quick to get angry and aggressive
Speak to me when you learn to be civil and calm
Ironically.... this was also Dave's problem.
Have you learnt nothing ?
"he made a comeback against Metallica" my guy, Metallica made Megadeth famous and he still whinning about a 40 years "incident"
Dave is great guitarist, one of the greatest of all time, but the way he is always so passive agressive drives me nuts. I think he still cant get over being kicked out of Metallica, every single time someone interviews him he has to say something about him being better than metallica, and guys from metallica just dont talk about him. I think he should get over being kicked out and just admire that his band is so big and has so many fans all over the world.
Exactly. Even before that day he got fired he had a bad superiority complex
I mean, I can kinda see why he’s still upset about it
I don't think that he is now upset about it I think more that Dave talk more about Metalica when he needs attention for his albums because it always brings a lot of attention
Metallica sucks though.. 🤡
What do you guys know??? Did you meet Dave in person??? Are you friends with Dave? How are you gonna know the truth? From TH-camrs who always overreact and over complicate every situation ever for views???? Stop it. You cannot know what is Dave in person. You just said he’s always passive aggressive, but that’s a thing people can recognize by talking in real life. Maybe he was like that 3 or 4 times in last decades and it happened to be some famous magazine or interviewer who blamed Dave for whatever.
Make no mistake, Megadeth might as well be called "Megamustaine". He created a solo project where he Controls Everything, and can Never be fired again. Consequently, he's never grown as a person, and is an insecure compulsive liar, who treats his alleged bandmates like hired guns. Having said that, he writes great songs and is a very savvy music businessman. Always Remember: Love the Art, not the Artist.
I call it Megadave
You don't become successful by being friends with everyone.
Very true.
true words. I honestly dislike Mustaine, I disagree with everything from his politic views to his new found spirituality, but the guy did some incredible music
The "art" been sounding the same just worse and worse each album.
A list of things people said about Chuck Schuldiner would be great. He was one of the nicest guy in Heavy Metal.
Close comparison for sure..both evil genuines🤘🤘
Yeah well we don't want to ruin anything... so we'll leave it at that we don't care about his personal life let's not tarnish the Legacy
Chuck wasn't known to be the nicest guy.
@@CarcPazuhuh what haven’t I heard about?
I doubt it buddy as dave chuck fired everyone however i guess it would be better if we knew why exactly
I think Dave has mellowed out a lot since his health issues, seems like he's making an attempt to mend fences as evidenced by Marty's recent appearance. some of the most creative people are bonafide lunatics, that's what I like about Mustaine, moreover the intensity of his music.
Dude, he cant go 24hrs without talking shit about someone and taking credit for their success.
@@springbloom5940idk, he's been pretty chill recently
I love Megadeth's music. Dave Mustaine is talented. Here's wishing Dave Mustaine much self improvement and change as a human being. Respect to Metallica trying to be the bigger men, they succeeded.
Notoriously difficult to work with, but I don't have to work with him. 😄. I love Megadeth.
I love how they are all shocked at his personality, but its not like its a secret Dave is a prickly guy.
Dave Mustaine is exactly who he has to be to create the music he made.
A bipolar asshole?
Doesn't excuse his shitty behaviour man. He a sour old man and it's pretty pathetic he still being a sour crunt
I know people who aren't assholes and have made better music.
Exactly
Absolute nonsense. Lots of great musicians making "angry" music aren't total dicks.
something about Mustaine
you just cannot stay mad at him for too long
no matter how inflame his Ego may seem at times
also got to love that Red/Fire color hair of his
Been a Mustaine fan since 85 he is awesome... Nothing was gonna stop him from making it..
Yup same here but I can't stand Lars , he's an annoying idiot!
Yeah I like Megadeth as well man but Dave's a fck head
@@firesideshats He's still not as much of a douche as Lars though!
@Mick Dokan oh nothing just millions of fans, millions of album sales, a Grammy award. Nothing much lol
Yeah, just like Ozzy, he made it by screwing everyone else over. Both are known as scum👜 in the industry.
The fact that there’s 14 separate band members who were once in a band with Dave speaks volumes. If 14 people are willing to go on the record and say you weren’t a good band mate, you’re probably not a good band mate and are indeed the problem Dave.
First mistake, last mistake
First mistake, no more mistakes -Dave mustaine to his bandmates
Dave : Angry Again
Some people risk to employ me,
Some people live to destroy me
Either way they die.
All the personnel fired from Megadeth should start a band called Mega Fired
Mustaine has and always will be one of my favorite musicians.
I remember being a Metallica superfan til I heard what Megadeth had to offer.
Megadeth was my first concert ever and I'll never forget it. It was during their Th1rt3en tour and I was front row.
The big ass curtain dropped and all I saw right before me was another curtain of red hair hahaha!!
I also got one of Ellefson's picks that night. Fucking amazing.
God bless you Drew ☦️ AMEN Philadelphia USA 🇺🇲❤️
WHO CARES?? He's a JACKA$$ and I give him NO credit.
I totally agree I’m the exact same minus the Thirteen experience ! Although I remember being in uni and I had pre ordered thirteen to get it on the day it was released and I literally watched the post man put it into my mail only to open straight away haha good times !
Yah! saw him live, he was fantastic, glad I never wasted money watching Metallic, seeing as they thought st. Anger was even considered rock.
Honestly when I think of Megadeth for me it is Dave, Ellefson, Menza and Friedman they were the best mix of artist don't get me wrong I also like other Megadeth artis and each of them add something now to the band but original band mambers were the best. Also I am sad that Ellefson was kicked out because he was the only one forming member that remain in band besides Dave. Also I hope that we will see more Friedman and Kiko together on stage the were incredible
Agreed! I love every album from beginning to end from that the lineup. Other albums are great too but not start to finish, imo.
Marty and Nick didn't even join the band until the 4th album, 1990s Rust in Peace. Killing is my Business, So far so good so what, and peace sells had Gar Samuelson, Chris Poland, Jeff Young.... they were all there prior to
I respect that, that was a good lineup. When I think of Megadeth it is Dave, Ellefson, Gar Samuelson and Chris Poland. Peace Sells, to this day, is one of the best album I own. And I bought it when it came out. Yeah, you can get that old and still have the greatest time listening to something from 1986 full volume. Cheers!
Original band was with Samuelson and Poland.
Best musicians he ever had and best songs too. Even the best solos. Unique and one of a kind.
Everything after that was just ordinary heavy metal.
Thats the rust in peace lineup. Great aIbum, I think my favorite is "so far so good... so what!"
I'll always respect Mustaine for the amazing music he has created. Opinions aside on his personality and how he's treated others, he's one of the greatest song writers and guitarists of all time imo.
his voice is awful, great songs though.
I like a lot of their music but he is sure an asshole. You don't have to be a jerk to get people to do what you want.
I don't care for the guy and I wasn't going to read his autobiography. But you are right, his contribution to metal history is undeniable so I did eventually read his book and it was pretty good. But Dave is still Dave, love him or hate him.
Agreed, TREMENDOUS Writing Abilities,....Hand down 👍
Yeah I believe that where most kf the early magic of metallicas songs came from was Dave and Cliff and then James being a great riff maker himself you had the recipe for greatness had history had not intervened cliff burton had not been killed and Dave never had been fired I can't imagine the metallica would have become wow!!! They badass as it is but hey there is never to much metal!!!
To sum it up. Only Ulrich, Friedman, Broderick, Adler and Drover speak positively. 🤣
Yeah haha
Nah Ulrich definitely hate him now. Dave doesn't like Ulrich and his drumming that much and he said that he is worst part of Metalica and the only reason there isn't album collaboration between them is Lars. I think that Dave and Hatfield have mutual respect to each other but Dave definitely doesn't like Lars
@@gazirani2204 Oh yes. That story with demos.
I think this video missed Glen Drover and Gaar Samuelson
No. Lars made a couple of nice statements, but that’s it. Dave’s a dick, that’s why he was kicked out of Metallica, and so many are gone from Megadeath. That being said, I love their music. Definitely metal legends.
Dave is very serious, difficult to work with and has struggled with alt animosity and can be very petty but that said man he's an amazing riff writer and his legacy with Megadeth is...Mega!
Hes an unprofessional jack ass
Yes!
He's a shit tier frontman and his lyrics are garbage.
There's a reason Megadeth were never as big as Metallica, they were never as good. Now fans will argue this, but one band still does world tours, one band doesn't.
You might say Megadeth has always just been the Dave Mustaine solo band, but Ellefson was the yang to Mustaine’s yin. Now Megadeth is like Danzig: not a band, just one guy with a revolving door of guys who can only handle the singer for a few records.
Dave is like Uncle Rico in Napoleon Dynamite. Forever stuck in the past. His last words will be something Metallica related.
Yup his last breath will be f u metalicaaaaa ughhh 💀
Dude so weird I was thinking exactly “I wonder what Mustaines last words will be? Probably something Metallica related”. Then I read your comment. Weird
" I wrote mechanix"
"They kicked me out of Metallica.." then dies.
my gf was working security at a megadeth show and was specifically told by the head of security that they were not supposed to look dave in the eye. This was his personal condition
Dave is just like my little brother when he gets angry 😂
@@Walter-vq3vm If this diddnt come from my GF I would call bullshit and exaggeration.
The hatred is eating Dave from the inside out,shame cuz he is such a talented person and one of my favorite bands .
Davids biggest scar is being dropped by Metallica. It molded him or amplified his traits either way. It plays a roll on how he conducts himself in business.
He made his band Megadeth big and he does not intend on losing it. That magnitude of loss with Metallica will not be repeated again. He alone will be in full control of Megadeth. And that is final and I can understand.
His “biggest scar” was definitely growing up in horrible conditions. He probably wouldn’t have become such a great musician otherwise, but him drinking massively and doing drugs has been a thing since he was like 10
Good point. I never really thought about that angle. It's not like he lost a job at 7-11. It was his big break. Most folks don't get a first, much less a successful second. I don't know exactly how I would act in a similar circumstance, but I know I would be very vigilant, and react quickly to even the smallest perceived threat.
And after all this Dave still resents being kicked out of Metallica.
It's all about the jealousy....Why did Metallica become the biggest band and not Megadeth?
@@zane4575 The Black Album. Simply put, Megadeth didn’t have an album that appealed to as broad of an audience as The Black Album did. Metallica was already popular amongst metal heads but The Black Album, to quote some famous guy, made it so that “even your sister who’s favorite band was Duran Duran and Michael Jackson suddenly started listening to Metallica when the Black Album came out.” Then Metallica’s older stuff became even more popular, and now those albums (but MoP in particular) are household names. This is the reason why your average pop listener today will know who Metallica is but none of the big 4
I’m all fairness, The Black Album probably helped Megadeth as well. People who only listened to Metallica’s older stuff after listening to the black album probably would have picked up Megadeth’s albums if it clicked. Even then MoP is a more commercial friendly album than Megadeth’s albums
Once they ran out of Cliff's material, they had no real composers so they had to go Bon Jovi to survive. Everything after Master of Puppets was fizzy pop. Enter Sandman is no more metal than Living on a Prayer and Bon Jovi did it better. @@zentazym1
13:32 I feel so bad about that. Chris and Dave remained on good terms, but he left megadeth over his loyalty to Lamb of God, only to later be fucked by them. Adler was seriously done dirty by LOG
Could you explain what happened? I'm not a LOG fan so I don't know.
@@nate-ds9tg Maybe a year or so after he returned to lamb of god, Chris had an accident while riding his bike and left him out of commission for a long time, almost a year I think. Eventually, instead of waiting for him to recover and rejoin, Chris was eventually let go from the band and replaced.
@@theargentino4245 That's terrible.
KK said it best. Dave is a miserable person. He just can't seem to let the past go. Even with all of his success and his talent, he negates it all as he has to run his mouth and burn others in the process. No one denies that he is a force musically. But his personal attitudes toward others overshadows his accomplishments.
Kk is a poser
hmm, sounds like a scripted reality show
If you met him you'd think otherwise. He's a really cool dude and nothing what you've described.
@@miker.8282 His support of people like Donald Trump tells me otherwise.
@@carlgibbons5777 Music is universal,only dumb people will talk about opinions,race,religion etc to describe a musician I don't especially like or hate Mustaine but what he thinks about politic or what he does at home isn't the subject,it's stupid
Nick Menza randomly popped into a class when I was attending Musician's Institute in Hollywood in 2012. I felt honored to have shared the same drum set that day!
RIP, then again legends never die.
James would never start a super group, he was so opposed to anyone in the group doing solo projects, that is one of the reasons why Jason left mettalica. James believed it would take away artistic creativity and dedication from the group. It's 100% metallica or the hiway.
Yep
Huge egos. Maybe the only thing James and Dave have in common 😅
Dave always sounded and acted like a pissed old lady. Now he looks like one,waddayknow 😊
I have heard many terrible things about dave in the past 20+ years ive been involved with the music industry... it takes a lot for people to admit that he's a talented guitarist because you have to look past all of the other BS problems he has.
What sucks about him is he can't separate his personal feelings , from his former bandmates talents . When he likes them .. they are the best musicians he's ever played with . When he has a falling out .. they were just "temporary" and not as good as the previous member they replaced . Mustaine acts like a child
I love both Metallica and Megadeth and I could be wrong but it seems to me like all these interviewers love to ask Dave Mustaine his opinion on things regarding Metallica because they know it’s guaranteed to generate views on TH-cam and in Metal news and, of course, Dave Mustaine isn’t going to lie. He’s going to tell it like it is. Then people think he’s hung up on the past and I don’t think this is the case at all. I think he has moved on long ago. People just want to make up drama where there is none. A lot of his work and words now are positive and lessons to be learned. I think other people are stuck in the past and still hung up on things Dave might have done 20 years ago. That’s why there’s interviews of all these people speaking negatively towards him while Dave is busy with a new album and tour. I’ve never met the guy but I’m sure he was an asshole and had his problems long ago. But from interviews I’ve seen, he seems to have matured a lot and moved on from the past. He’s very calm and seems at peace. I can’t say the same about some of the other musicians speaking on Mustaine who have just as big of an ego.
Finally someone said this
Especially Jeff Young! Guy talks all kinds of shit about Dave and then tries to sing like him! 🤦🏻♂️
You nailed it
Kerry King dissing Mustaine. That's adorable
Kerry didnt "join" Megadeth, he filled in for some shows while they needed it. He has been in Slayer since the start.
It’s kinda funny to see all these grown men squabbling like children. But it’s also kinda sad
The title of this video should me “Mustaine Hit Piece”
fired due drinking problems? 😂 by far not only, at that time he walked every day with a small mirror in his jeans jacket… ❄️ is the real reason why he talked so much after getting fired…
this said… megadeth nowadays is still intresting, compared to other 80ies bands…
Yup. He liked the hard stuff
A lot of us liked that stuff, that's what we did. From experience and spending time him, I Dave was great to be around.
I think the press keeps the Megadeth Metallica thing going
Replace the " press " with Mustaine and it will be accurate.
Mustaine can end the feud, but he always has something to say about Metallica and his fans enjoy it.
I don’t blame him for not ending it . Fans should be happy they got good metal music from 2 bands
The press can't do that. They don't make Mustaine say things.
Ive often wondered why Megadeth has gone through so many members.
…..good report👌🏼
….you forgot Shawn's brother Glen Drover was also one of the guitarist’s of Megadeth.
No AL Pitreli or did I miss that?
A lot musicians who don't get along with each other, personality clashes. The band "Police" literally hated each other. I think being in a band is job and your livelihood, there has to be mutual respect and professionalism.
I love Dave Mustaines impeccable skills as a guitarist , composer and the perfect execution of his craft.I have been to over 15 or more live MEGADETH shows and I can't ever recall hearing him make a mistake during a performance.Every show ROCKED.He is my favorite thrash guitarist on earth!
You should do a video about "What Former Guitar Techs Think About Dave Mustaine" That would be a great video.
@@axxion231 sure they are, all roadies are important. They are way more important then you think.
@@axxion231 Why wouldn’t a roadies opinion mean anything or matter ?
You missed Al Pitrelli who had replaced Marty Friedman.
Pitrelli seems so chilled out. I can’t imagine him saying anything bad about anyone.
I don’t think Al Pitrelli would ever speak publicly a negative word about anyone. I’ve heard him talk about Mustaine. He’s said he is devoted, hard working, demanding of excellence, and a genius at writing riffs.
I LOVE DAVE MUSTAINE!! I was asked backstage by him in the 80s and he was a sweetheart. He treated me good in every way. And as a musician he's one of the best. The speed and excellence of his guitar while singing blows my mind. Top that off with the impressive lyrics he writes. AND he's gorgeous and has a great body. I love Dave I love Megadeth!!
cool, great story...ppl seem to forget Mustaine is the owner of Megadeth, and a father now, too!
Hey look, everybody. A former groupie.
@@grim7747 it's all good
Sounds like someone got railed by mustaine
did he creep in his bedroom? did he slip in the bed?
I seen them all back in the day
"Limited lifetime warranty. So it's on me" I wish more companies would stand by their work personally. Thanks 🤟
Mustaine has always been Mustaine's worst enemy.
If these guys had no ego - we would never have seen any of them on stage or had any of the songs we love.
Their egos are going to clash as they all step up to entertain us.
I grew up dreaming of being in a metal band and learned to play guitar.
That dream went out the window when I met others who had their own dreams - because I couldn't hack the arguments.
I think these guys have gone through Hell to entertain us - so I we all need to give them some room to breathe.
Peace ✌
Yeah, when you have a new band every tour, the problem is *you*
If Lars wore glasses with circle shaped lenses, dude would look just like Benjamin Franklin. Cool costume idea for Lars!
By the way, in the "Chapters" list for the video, the Ron McGovney chapter is shown with a photo of Lars.
There is common theme to all that has gone wrong with Megadeth !!
Shows how much respect he has for Other Musicians and his Band mates.
Goddamn I want one of James’ Ken Lawrence guitars
Bro imagine since the invention of TH-cam there is at least one video explaining Dave’s departure from Metallica daily. Now imagine being Dave and people upload your story multiple times a day everywhere they can 💀
"Departure" is a loose term. It was definitely more of an ejection.
Also.. he's not shut up about it since it happened. Making noise about it in the press as recently as a few months ago. So there's that.
That’s probably because Dave acts like a jilted girlfriend, and whines about it constantly. He keeps it in the news, so it ain’t going away.
@@thunderxgod01 he gets asked about it all the time tho
@Leo STRATONLY There's literally hours of tape of him heavily intoxicated and whining on stage about it between songs in the 80s, and it's really pathetic.
He really has never let it go, and that's why the conversation is relevant. In some sense, it's hard to blame him when you see that Lars and James are each worth $500mil, but from starting his band for the only reason to get revenge, to all the times he publicly complained about it for 20 years, then therapy sessions in SKOM and all the drama that followed, then another 10 years of writing diss tracks, then the drama over the RRHOF, then the alleged patching of things up for Met30 and Big 4, and then running his mouth in the press about projects that never were seriously discussed, and then writing credit disputes over the 30 year reissues, and to this day he still hasn't stfu about it all in the press it's pretty clear to see who's been acting like the scorned boyfriend who will never get over it 40+ years on.
@thunderxgod01 😂 😂
Chris Brodrick is so cool on stage, and my favorite Megadeth guitarist. Although they are all awesome.
The video is really well done but 8:04 its Uday Benegal and 08:14 the Indian rock band called Indus Creed in which he is the frontman and vocalist. Just saying... Cheers😄
Only fair that we talk about HEAVI for a bit now. Let's get the dirty details. Ooooh!
I feel like this needs to be a 30-minute video... minimum
We LOVE DAVE MUSTAINE 💋 AMEN Philadelphia USA 🇺🇲❤️
RIP Cliff Burton ☦️ AMEN 💋
The chris poland stuff sounds about right, i always thought there were guitar solos from so far so good so what that sounded like his
He is a legend he made a great band and helped another great band quite a bit. Pretty much the pioneer of thrash metal.
Dave Mustaine is like that meme of Pricipal Skinner come to life.
"Maybe I'm the asshole?... No, surely everyone Ive ever worked with is wrong!"
So Ellefson is no longer with Megadeth? Again…I haven’t had the chance to listen to the latest album, in full, the most recent one. Need to go get buy a copy for sure.
About John Cyriis, I never heard that story! His lyrics were about extraterrestrial? And later, MegadetH did the song Hanger 18. Oh, the irony.
lyrics were by Menza
Same here! Stunning revelation. Agent Steel was awesome.
Dave's EGO is GALACTIC in scale. If I had his talent it'd be difficult to not have some form of self accomplishment. But that mixed with being a narcissist is just poison for anyone within his inner circle.
As I mentioned I met Dave for the 1st time in the 80s and I promise you he's not a narcissist. You truly have to know someone 24/7 trust me I'm a victim of the most severe narcissistic and it's so hard to understand and to try to explain. Also I still hear Metallica talk about Dave in a immature way. Most recently James mocking him for no reason. Well I guess the reason could be Dave is a much better musician than James in every aspect!!
I don't think Metallica really mocks anyone anymore. They seem to be maturing these days.
Dave is a legend like it or not the man has talent dare I say one of the best guitarist alive his contributions to music should put him in the rock and roll hall of fame he's that legendary and continues to put out great records to this day so if he's an asshole it's unfortunate that he treats his band mates like shit but there's always two sides to a story so idk 🤷♂️
Seen him in Concert..in Louisville, Ky
Who?!?
“Megadeth doesn’t plays those songs because they cant’t”
That’s rich coming from a guy I just watched the other night playing those songs super sloppy. And I’ve seen Megadeth play those songs crisp and clear every time.
Yeah, Megadave made a fool of himself playing with Metallica, because he couldn't play the songs he claims he wrote and that Metallica pussified.
So you're praising him for his ability to play but the point of this video is that he is an a$$hole.
@@springbloom5940 Dave runs circles around James and Kirk, lol :)
@@sole__doubt
Cited evidence to the contrary.
@@springbloom5940 Thats not evidence I guess you never played in a live setting before.
Im saying this as someone who loves Megadeth and has a tattoo of the Rust in peace album ocupating half an arm of his body. But Dave, cut it out. Stil to this day all he does is talk about Metallica, admit it, they win. The bigest band on the planet, in the history of heavy metal, and you are not a part of it anymore. Metallica never talks about anyone, and when they do, its just to say nice things, but the other way around its another situation.
Agreed
Careful bud, Dave may come after you for trademark right’s because of your tattoo
@@Terk131No, that would be Gene Simmons 😆.
@@Scottocaster6668 Good one and 100% spot on.
I agree with Marty.. the Mustaine/Ellefson/Menza/Friedman lineup is what a band looks like unlike "MegaDave" which can be good from time to time too but incomparable to said lineup.. that metallica super group would''ve been amazing though
Dave wrote kill em all. He Jumpstarted their career. My brothers band played a show with Megadeth and Dave and the entire band was very nice a d very good to my brother's band. They were very very cordial and professional.
Mustaine only wrote Mechanix, which Metallica improved. He has 3 other credits on songs. So that's 4 songs.
3 writing credits and one entire song.
Hardly "created KEA"
I think there's two songs on RTL with Mustaine credited? 0 on the best album of all time, MOP.
He cowrote like a third of the album. Hetfield and Ulrich wrote it. Hetfield is credited on every song. Mustaine fans live in a fantasy land.
@@michaelmorningstar8645 Still a better musician than them. They were going to restore release the no life till leather demo. But Lars wanted credit songs he never wrote. Dave said no way
@@jerster152 Its like you don't read and then post shit that's already been replied to
@@jerster152 Lars did cowrite those songs. Facts crap on your crackhead hero's lies.
Dave be like: It's not me, all my 362736 ex-bandmates are the bad guys 🤡
That said, he wrote some of the best metal stuff of all time
And his fans not helping him either. You could just tell Dave was always a narcissistic provocative miserable person and he'd hide it with charisma talent and being soft spoken. Fans eat that bs up and ignore his issues instead they praise him and simultaneously hate on his peers.
@@godloveszaza He is such a “diva” as well. Not a nice person. He treats everyone like trash and always has
@@Terk131 i met him and he treated me with respect and even signed my LPS after the show which he promised. Tallica boys would never do that
@@axxion231 I met him more then once and the older he gets the worse he is. We’re you at a paid “meet & greet” because he puts on a poker face for that
@@axxion231 wouldn't they? They do that kinda stuff all the time though and always have. They are both good to their fans
I love Dave more than all others musicians in this video together!
that's right james, dave go go goes & consistently pumps out good thrash..................
David Ellefson is a millionaire because he bumped into Dave Mustaine 🤦🏻♂️
Not exactly. Ellefson's family bailed out Mustaine when he was in debt.
@@bamboozle3990 David abused his parents credit card but not $5 million worth 🤦🏻♂️
He would've still wound up a rich kid for the area he grew up in.
@@DudeMan7 not according the the interview I watched with his mother 😐
@Scott Armstrong I guess my statement only comes from stopping by his "coffee shop," which I found out wasn't a coffee shop but a diner owned by a childhood friend who sold his coffee products in it. He gave me a whole big story, and Ellefson's parents supposedly had money. They didn't even have any damn coffee there that day.lol.
Dave Mustaine is a phenomenal musician and songwriter. He is my favorite guitar player in the Thrash Metal genre. The majority of Megadeth's catalog is phenomenal to me. I don't know Dave Mustaine as a person, and most likely never will.
I told a dude at a pub, it looked like the drummer I met had it with Mustaine. He replied .who hasn't had it with Mustaine
After talking to some entities from the astral realm the words is that, without his bandmates knowledge, Dave sold his soul for the success of the band, but in the pledge ritual he unfortunately used the term "metallica" instead of "my band". Soon after he was kicked from Metallica, which became huge on the account of him maybe going to hell.
I love Dave and all his Drama 🎭 he brings 😂 🙌🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🔥❤️🤘🏽…..He keeps Metal Entertaining. He is his Own Unique Personality…
Dave is the G.O.A.T of Metal…
Dave influenced Hetfield, Kerry King and many others in the thrash scene. He is a prime innovator of an entire genre (seeing as how he was in 2 of the big 4 and King was briefly in Megadeth). I mean if Dave wasn’t such a prick at times I think more people would give him his flowers.
Misspelled Kirk Hammett
@@springbloom5940 I don’t get it.
@@darthtaylor513He's implying that Kirk was/is more influental.
Then why did he change his sound to sound more like Hetfield for his second Album?
@@captainjefferies9047 I’m not sure what you mean by that. Sound is a very generic term do you mean in guitar tone, vocals, song structure, tempo, phrasing?
Some pics on Pinterest suggest that Dave and Jr were more then just band mates ?
To be fair, Kerry King was never a full-fledged member of Megadeth. Both Dave and he always insisted that he was only a live session member, who wanted to help him out with live gigs until Megadeth found a full-time guitarist. Kerry King didn't want to commit to Megadeth full time as he was committed to his own band. However, Mustaine did ask King to join Megadeth full time, and King turned him down. And there was, later on, some friction between them over Slayer's satanic lyrics as Dave got pretty sanctimonius about that stuff for a while.
Bottom line is the fans want to see Metallica & Megadeth either tour or collaborate. Let's hope it happens
I'd totally be down for that, but James should be doing vocals given Dave's voice is shot. I saw Marty rejoining Dave in Tokyo, and while Marty killed Tornado of Souls, Dave absolutely murdered it! Stick to lead, for Dave, I say.
I hope not. Dave doesnt deserve that shot, all he does is run his mouth.
Nope, it will never happen.
It did happen, check out Milton Keynes Hollywood bowl gig in ‘93 . Diamond head, the almighty, megadeth, metallica.
@@siv8976 dude, I did check that gig out IN PERSON. I was fucking there lol Awesome gig, but unfortunately Metallica didn’t have Dave come out and jam with them on the songs Dave wrote.
Say what you want about Mustaine, he is a bad ass musician and a true inspiration to many, imo. He went through so many ups and downs/tragedy and triumph in his life/career and is still out there kicking ass. I love him as a musician and a band leader. He is an extremely talented guitar player and song writer. I would say Mustaine, Hetfield, Dimebag, Kerry King and Jeff Hanemann are all guitar heros of mine that I grew up listening to, admiring them all as a young kid and still do to this day.
A lot of people/ musicians went through ups and downs and faaar more inspirational and not cry bitter babies
Bad asses dont whine like pussies for 40 years.
Not saying that Dave hasn't come off as being pretty bitter about being kicked out of Metallica a very long time ago that he still can't seem to get over/let go of and can definitely come off as being a bit (insert your descriptive term of him here), that still doesn't take away from how good of a musician/talented that he is, and the success he has achieved in his own band, for better or for worse. I have learned to take the good and the bad with Mustaine, yeah he has some personality traits and quirks that might not agree with most people, but I still like his music. I feel the same way about Ted Nugent. Many people may not like him personally because of how he carries himself, but I still like his music, especially from the early to late 70s. I would rather let the music do the talking...lol.
@@jmaynez2332 I don't disagree, I was more referring to his musical output throughout his career, not how people perceive him as a human being I guess.
@@ianray9137 ah, gotchya. Thanks for the reply, man. 👍🏼
I will say, i love their new album. Most of it anyway
Don't know that much about either band although I have seen Mustaine on the AJ show a few times. The band(s) history and people coming and going left dazed and confused by the 4 minute mark. A rock and roll soap opera.
There seems to be a common thread in most of these musicians' comments.
Dave is troubled, but most geniuses are.
Probably undiagnosed (bi-polar) or even ADHD …
He kinda looks like what Steven hawking would look like with long hair 🤣😂🤣😂
I wish I had that kind of troubles
Umm,,no.
@@edgabrielocay3376 Wow- witty rejoinder. Thank you for that.
Mega untreated PTSD.
