MegaDave to call it a day

They're showing the 'Behind the Mask' documentary in a few cinemas near me tomorrow evening. Was going to go along when I heard it was a retrospective but then got to the part about it being "alongside the new album in full"  I feel that would be too torturous to sit through.

The "Mustaine is sober and more insufferable than ever" tour.

Think every band commented in the following years how much of a buzz kill he was on Clash Of The Titans.

The video was taken down but Rick Stuart, a roadie on that tour recounted the tale behind that photo. Think the photo was for Raw Magazine, Mustaine wasn't aware of the rabbit ears and that's the pic the magazine went with. Apparently the lads in Slayer, printed out zillions of copies, it was the backstage pass lanyard for whatever show, posters, flyers etc. Mustaine had to to be warned before getting off the bus and some of the crew had to get him into the venue without seeing it.

I loved Megadeth as a nipper. A friend got Killing Is My Business on import shortly after it was released in '85
Totally hooked me. Great times, but haven't seen Megadeth live in a few decades, lol

[Mooncat]

Saw them live a year or two ago and they were surprisingly decent. Realistically the ferocity and energy are gone and they're just spitting out reasonably polished versions of their songs. Bit weird seeing them use digital setups though. I use digital myself these days, but you kind of expect a wall of Marshalls or something behind Megadeth...

[Bürggermeister]

It be not quite as rock 'n' roll to hear Mustaine was fucking around with Temu's patches like Young claimed he fucked with his Marshalls.

I think what needs to happen is there needs to be a Megadeth/Metallica tour. Period. That would, I'm sure, make everything right. We could hang out. Spend time together. But I know they don't really tour like we do. I mean, when we go out on tour, we play many, many shows.

In other words, please take my band out so I can have one last big payday that I'd never manage myself

[Eoin McLove]

He's so fucking bitter 

[Mooncat]

It's astonishing how he's held onto it so long even now into his 60s. Truly a pathetic man. Shame too as he seems intelligent and funny otherwise

[The Great Cull]

What a bollox.

I'd love to tour with them.... we work way harder than them by the way.... although we could hang out.... also I'm a way better guitar player than Kirk.... be good to catch up.... even though they were CUNTS to me.... I'll be the bigger man..... because I'm destined to be bigger....

Jesus are him and Trump related? They display very similar narcissistic tendencies.

[Barnacle Billy]

Ah Dave's grand. Will yiz leve him alone

'So Far So Good So what' turns 38 this month.  First album of theirs I heard as a mini me. Really great album. Preferable to me over any of the later releases but to each his own.

As for Mustaine , he never bothered me I think he just has a very dry/ black sense of humour that goes over peoples heads.  Having said that the Metallica thing still clearly bothers him even now but, none of us were there in his shoes so whatever.

Two days ago actually, and yes another banger of an album.
Those first 6 Megadeth albums were absolutely class, even Countdown & Youthanasia.
Although, to be honest, I really only play the first 3 nowadays.
Just love the raw energy on those albums really.

I wonder what the Metallica lads make of Mustaine. They must piss themselves at him.
