Megadeth

[MAthiAS]

Oh yeah, I forgot about the Wake up Dead video. That's the one where the fans are breaking down the fence right?
Yep, Dave said that in the beginning you can see a guy wearing a bra, but I didn't see it.

Oh yeah, Hangar 18 has an awesome video too.

[Freezing Moon]

Yep, Dave said that in the beginning you can see a guy wearing a bra, but I didn't see it.

Oh yeah, Hangar 18 has an awesome video too.

Haha, I haven't seen a guy in a bra, but I'll look next time I watch it.

I like Hangar 18, except the aliens are a bit cheesy.

[MAthiAS]

I know, but in comparison to Sweating Bullets and DDE, Hangar 18's really not that cheesy. I just downloaded A Tout Le Monde video, very very very cool.

[Po0sH]

I love megadeth, but I just HATE the Anarchy in the U.K. video so much. It's way to mainstream 80's.

[wrongnote85]

i like it, it's got a lot of freaky morbid cartoons in it.

[Lord Abortion]

have you seen the live hangar 18 video?

that's pretty cool

the crowd go mental... :lol:

[shadow_stalker]

Last saturday there was about 5 megadeth videos on scuzz in a row, was very cool.

[Deth]

I've never seen most of those videos. Most of the ones I have seen are pretty bad though.

[thegreatsouthrentrendkill]

ah finally found a decent thread here nice to see some fellow deth heads. any you guys catch em when they toured the uk and irl?

[Mazeppa]

ah finally found a decent thread here nice to see some fellow deth heads. any you guys catch em when they toured the uk and irl?
I saw them in London, which was absoloutely brilliant.

[RustedPieces]

I saw them in Canada in November. It was probably the best thing that I've ever seen.

[MAthiAS]

Well for once I'm happy to be an American, seeing them again on Gigantour.

[RustedPieces]

Hell yeah, they're coming to Toronto too!

[MAthiAS]

Hmm, check this package out:

Platinum Package - For $250
* One Ticket in the first 4 rows or early entry for GA shows
* Exclusive shirt
* A real VIP laminate pass
* Gigantour Tour Book
* Megadeth Autograph
* Backstage and stage tour prior to the show
* Meet and Greet with Megadeth
* Photo with Megadeth

Its pretty cool, but I don't think its worth it, I'm just going to join the fan club so I get a meet and greet pass, its like $30.

[vashts80]

That's per person? Holy christ, that's expensive.

[Huber]

Read all the stuff you get! That's worth it.

[vashts80]

Still pretty expensive though. $500 for two people :O

[Crysiss]

Has anyone heard their duke nukem track? pretty sweet. I started laffing in the middle of the song, "Come Get Some!!"lol

You have to pay fer meet n' greet and autograph? ****, that's greedy.

[Huber]

It will probably be more than just shaking there hands, like you would without money normally at a concert.

[Lord Abortion]

wow... that's pretty expensive to meet megadeth

[Deth]

That's really cool, but really expensive.

Plus, are the tour dates annouced yet?

[VicRattlehead99]

okay the only megadeth videos i have ever seen are go to hell,symphony of destruction,peace sells,Hangar 18,Of mice and men,Moto psycho and Crush em i am pretty sure that is all if any one knows any links or wants to know where to find any of these just say so.

[MAthiAS]

You can get a pass to the meet and greet through the fan club, and its only $30 to join that.

My tour dates were announced with the Premium Package thing, August 23 and 24.

[RustedPieces]

I can't wait for the summer. No school AND Megadeth. That's the perfect life.

[Sandtrap]

I can't wait for the summer. No school AND Megadeth. That's the perfect life.

yeah it doesnt get much better than that!

[LarsAgi007]

I can't wait for the summer. No school AND Megadeth. That's the perfect life.

Hell yeah!!! And to think if Metallica didn't kick him out the band to replace him with Kirk, there would be NO! Megadeth!!!

[Deth]

You might not want to start that in here, they don't take kindly to people who don't take kindly to things.

When are the dates for Gigantour announced, damn it!!!

[Carlos Santana]

are they any tour dates for gigantour.sorry im new to tours and concerts i have enevr been to one. i want to go to see Megadeth though and i want to know more infromation on the gigantour?

[36Dritzlfists]

Has anyone heard their duke nukem track? pretty sweet. I started laffing in the middle of the song, "Come Get Some!!"lol

I think they did a real good job on the Duke Nukem theme. You'd think doing a cover of a video game theme would turn out stupid, but Megadeth is great, so it turned out great.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

No, although I'm sure someone else in the thread will.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

Yeah, it happens quite often when mx is real busy :(

Sometime i click on a thread or something and nothin happens for like 5 minutes :9

[Firecracker]

Disintegrators and FFF are my favourite songs by them.

[Deth]

What's FFF? I'm not good with acronyms.

[LarsAgi007]

You might not want to start that in here, they don't take kindly to people who don't take kindly to things.

When are the dates for Gigantour announced, damn it!!!

Oh sorry, I wasn't starting anything mate... Just a true fact! needless to say a Gigantour thread has been created :thumb:

[RiceMonster]

What's FFF? I'm not good with acronyms.
same here. I hate acronyms.

[vashts80]

FFF is the actual title of the song.

[Deth]

OK then. I haven't heard it before.

[Mazeppa]

Nor have I...

[RustedPieces]

I've heard OF it, but i haven't actually heard the song.

[Freezing Moon]

/will edit in link to FFF when it's done uploading.

Megadeth - FFF (http://s17.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=23LLZ3FFR7TZC3QWYYL6GQX5F1)

[Five Magics]

FFF - Fight For Freedom Pretty solid tune, from a great album...Cryptic Writings

[Deth]

Thanks for the upload, shall listen to it soon.

[KittensInMicrowaves]

FFF - Fight For Freedom Pretty solid tune, from a great album...Cryptic Writings

pretty good song, pretty good album on the whole, I actually liked Cryptic Writings a lot, and She Wolf is one of my fave Megadeth songs

[Mazeppa]

I've only heard Shw Wolf on Rude Awakening (DVD) and it a pretty cool song. If all the songs are like that on that album I might get that album.

[RustedPieces]

The she-wolf on rude awakening is an extended version. It doesn't have a lot of the solos in the real song.

[munky_magik]

I've only heard Shw Wolf on Rude Awakening (DVD) and it a pretty cool song. If all the songs are like that on that album I might get that album.
They're not. Cryptic Writings is not a very metal album.
They completely did She-Wolf up for Rude Awakening.

[Mazeppa]

Megadeth-Peace Sells (live video) (http://s35.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=3EPB0HKMR0P570RDZ3TRZPGIO8)

So, here's another cool video of 'Deth. Line up includes Marty Friedman and Nick Menza, which is my favourite line up. Anyway, enjoy.

[MAthiAS]

She Wolf's an awesome song, Trust, Mastermind, and The Disintegrators are great too. Its not really metal, but its great music.

[munky_magik]

Indeed. Cryptic Writings is my favourite 'Deth album. It seems like Dave just thought more about the songs on that album. Also, it has some of Marty's best playing, as far as I'm concerned.

[RustedPieces]

The Gigantour is going to be brutal, meaning that its going to be pretty violent. Just the regular Deth show I saw with Exodus was violent.

[VicRattlehead99]

Okay if anyone findes out if children of bodom and testament are going post it here immediatly please.And i think you should buy cryptic writings metal guitar it is a pretty bad cd.

[Huber]

If Testament goes I'll **** a few bricks, and have them autograph them.

[RustedPieces]

If Testament goes I'll **** a few bricks, and have them autograph them.
Same here.

[vashts80]

I always wondered how Marty managed to pick like this.

I tried it and it hurts like hell.

[Carlos Santana]

I always wondered how Marty managed to pick like this.

I tried it and it hurts like hell.
does anyone know why he picks like that.
i want to know too

[VicRattlehead99]

i dont know but it looks cool when he does it in videos and concerts

[RustedPieces]

Yeah, me and my friend were talking about this today. It looks so weird, I have no idea how he does it.

[Mazeppa]

I have an instructional guitar video by Marty, and he does pick quite wierdly in that aswell.

[Freezing Moon]

I've tried picking like he does, and it slows me down like crazy. It looks really cool though, so whatever works for him.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

I downloaded a guitar instruction video with Marty in it. Its pretty cool, it has lots of great soloing tips.

Thanks for the video again metal guitar <3

[Lord Abortion]

marty rules...

I was just singing RIP polaris yesterday at home...

slightly off key but I'm a black metal vocalist not a singer...

[Deth]

I don't like the lyrics on Polaris, they seem cheesy. Good song though.

[VicRattlehead99]

I like polaris because it is a good song to learn all the way through great decent guitar players to learn.

[Systemhasfailed]

Polaris is badass. The drums and the guitar are just amazing.

[thegreatsouthrentrendkill]

it is megadeth after all everything about it is badass

[VicRattlehead99]

What do you guys think the best song on rust in peace is? Mine is Tornado of souls!

[Mazeppa]

Tough one, but a personal favourite of mine from that album is Take No Prisoners.

[VicRattlehead99]

Well like i have been saying on other threads post if you find anything about children or testament coming on tour with them or if they are coming to pheonix.

[RustedPieces]

My favorite song on RIP and all time favorite song is Holy Wars.

[MAthiAS]

Tornado of Souls

[VicRattlehead99]

Yes It is partcularly hard to choose a favorite song from that cd.

[Drone]

I'm with RustedPieces on this one, on both counts.

[ashman]

Hangar 18...soo many solos...

[RustedPieces]

Yeah theres like 11 or something

[Deth]

Hanger 18 or Tornado,, but there is no weak songs (excluding Dawn Patrol).

[flamesofbodom]

Holy Wars, Hangar 18, or Five Magicks.
All are pretty amazing

[Five Magics]

<-----------------------------------------------Fav off of RIP

[KittensInMicrowaves]

Holy Wars, Hangar 18, 5 Magics, Tornado of Souls

I can't pick one!!!!!

:p

[Chu]

Holy Wars, Hangar 18, 5 Magics, Tornado of Souls

I can't pick one!!!!!

:p
Yeah same.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

Can't pick a fav of that one!

I don't really like Poison Was The Cure, but I love everything else.

[Freezing Moon]

I couldn't choose. It always changes.

Right now, Five Magics or Take No Prisoners.

[Deth]

By far my favorite Deth album.

[Lord Abortion]

By far my favorite Deth album.
123

favourite is probably tornado of souls

don't really like poison was the cure or take no prisoners much though

TNP is too thrashy for me

[wicked_child]

i like trust and countdown to extinction

[Six Foot Revolver]

I have only got Countdown to Extinction and Rust in Peace but I love them both in equal amounts :thumb:

Good song :thumb:. Also, Cryptic Writings wasn't that bad of an album. Only that it was like a step back form what they had in the late 80's and early 90's. Good CD tho.

[Deth]

Metal Guitar, you are my hero, what with your never-ending stream of videos and whatnot.

[RustedPieces]

We need a good topic to talk about..

[Chu]

The World Needs a Hero.
I kinda like it :D

[MAthiAS]

Well... I'm thinking of selling my RR5 and buying a DV8... Too many problems with my RR5...

[FlyingPaul_83]

Ive been listening to Megadetrh a lot lately and i was wondering if they had a DVD box set like Metallica's Live Sh*t: Binge and purge or anything like that.


So........Do they?

[MAthiAS]

Ive been listening to Megadetrh a lot lately and i was wondering if they had a DVD box set like Metallica's Live Sh*t: Binge and purge or anything like that.

No but they're coming out with one sometime after the summer.

Well, they have Rude Awakening...

[FlyingPaul_83]

Whats rude awakening?

Is it a live DVD?

If so, then what songs do they play, and is it worth buying?

[Five Magics]

Whats rude awakening?

Is it a live DVD?

If so, then what songs do they play, and is it worth buying?

Rude Awakening is there live DVD from "The World Needs A Hero" tour. They play at least one song from every album except Risk, put it this way, "She-Wolf" is alone worth buying

[FlyingPaul_83]

Did Marty leave Megadeth, or did dave fire him, and when did this happen

[munky_magik]

Marty left after Cryptic Writings, to the best of my knowledge.

[FlyingPaul_83]

Was Cryptic wings around 1997?

[VicRattlehead99]

Who was o with megadeth during risk and the world needs a hero? i am pretty sure marty was on megadeth until the world needs a hero.

[munky_magik]

Marty played up until Risk, which was '99.
Cryptic Writings was '97.
Al Pitrelli played on TWNAH.

[VicRattlehead99]

Ohh okay thanks why did marty and nick leave?

[munky_magik]

Marty left bacuase he just wasn't enjoying the band anymore. He wanted to branch out and try different things that he couldn't do in 'Death.
At least that's what I read somewhere, I have no idea if it's true or not :-/

[VicRattlehead99]

is nick with marty or another band right now?

[munky_magik]

He's not with Marty. He briefly re-joined 'Death for TSHF, but then left again.

[vashts80]

Nick, IIRC, got kicked out after Cryptic Writings for lying about drugs. I believe he said that he was robbed at a MacDonalds or something to that effect and that was why he didn't show up for a gig or something, when he instead was either getting drugs or was high already.

Marty left after the Risk tour because he didn't like the direction that the band was going in and he wanted to branch out and do different things that Dave didn't want to do.

This is when Jimmy and Al joined respectively.

Nick was going to come back for the TSHF tour, but he wasn't able to physically play that stuff anymore. Vinnie Colaiuta did the drumming on TSHF and now Shawn is drumming live.

[RustedPieces]

This might be a stupid question.. But can someone tell me the scale thats used in the extended she-wolf thats on rude awakening?

[FlyingPaul_83]

When was chris poland in the band?

[RustedPieces]

He was their first lead guitarist. But I'm pretty sure Kerry King was a temporary guitarist before they found Poland.

[FlyingPaul_83]

He was their first lead guitarist. But I'm pretty sure Kerry King was a temporary guitarist before they found Poland.


He was the lead guitarisat in killing is my business?

[RustedPieces]

Yeah. Here you would probably appreciate this site, if you already havent been to it. Someone posted a link to this site a little while ago. http://megadeth.uw.hu/videos.html, all live 'Deth videos. Enjoy!

[FlyingPaul_83]

Is that really chris poland, he looks bored on the last rites/loved to deth vdieo

[RustedPieces]

Is that really chris poland, he looks bored on the last rites/loved to deth vdieo
Me and my friend were saying the same thing. Look at his pinky in the rattlehead video when he's playing the solo. Its funny because he can stretch is so far because he broke it before or something. So like, no other guitarist can play that song because they can't reach the note with their pinky.

[Five Magics]

Gar Samuelson
Chuck Behler
Nick Menza
Jimmy Degrasso
Vinnie Colaiuta
Shawn Drover

6 different drummers....I wonder if any band had more drummers than the 'deth

[Apocalyptic Raids]

I wouldn't really count Colaiuta as a full member of Megadeth, since he was only a session drummer for one album.

[ThrashMaster27]

Gar Samuelson
Chuck Behler
Nick Menza

Iced Earth for one.

[ArcLite]

Death went through five I believe. In fact sharing one, Richard Christy, with Iced Earth.

[ThrashMaster27]

Actually, going back onto the point about Chris Poland being bored. I also noticed this in videos. It's most likely because he's more into Jazz/Fusion than Metal itself. He only took the role in Megadeth cause he descibed the music as challenging.

Still! Amazing Guitarist.

[Chu]

I agree, he's an amazing guitarist, hell anyone who's worked with Mustaine is an amazing artist in my opinion, he definately knows how to find the best.

On that note, I think the SFSGSW guitarist (Jeff Young?) was the best :p

[Apocalyptic Raids]

Friedman will always be the best but all of Megadeth's lead guitarists have been top-notch.

[ThrashMaster27]

I agree, he's an amazing guitarist, hell anyone who's worked with Mustaine is an amazing artist in my opinion, he definately knows how to find the best.

On that note, I think the SFSGSW guitarist (Jeff Young?) was the best :p

I think you'd be the only one in this thread to think that. I respect your opinion though, nobody is wrong. I personally think Marty was the best Guitarist in 'Deth. Chris didn't do enough in the band to warrant me picking him....Same with Jeff. Plus, I think Marty is the best talent wise, as he's considered a Guitar Virtuoso, yet didn't even have training.

[Chu]

I know in terms of skill, Friedman is the best.
But what I prefer isn't always just skill, I think that SFSGSW has the best solos to date, also the best riffs, it's possibly all Mustaine who does the solos, and if that's the case, more props to him.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

Hopefully we will get to hear Glen Drover record some material with Megadeth.

[ThrashMaster27]

I know in terms of skill, Friedman is the best.
But what I prefer isn't always just skill, I think that SFSGSW has the best solos to date, also the best riffs, it's possibly all Mustaine who does the solos, and if that's the case, more props to him.

Actually, that's a good point. Dave did most of the solos on albums before Marty was introduced into Megadeth. He is really underrated as a Lead Guitarist. I love the solo after the intro on the Conjuring. Yeah, SFSGSW has great riffs, but I still can't go past Rust for the best riffs. Some of them are mindboggling.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

The rhythm guitar on Take No Prisoners is just insane. With Rust In Peace, it was like they turned up the intensity a few notches compared to the 80's material.

[ThrashMaster27]

Yeah! I was thinking that. The Guitar tone is very different aswell.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

Yeah, the guitars were noticably fuzzier on RIP.

Also the songs structures seemed really different, Most of the songs didn't go verse, chorus, verse chorus etc etc. Besides Tornado Of Souls, Rust In Peace... Polaris and the first half of Hanger 18. In fact most of the songs don't even have a chorus!

[Chu]

Actually, that's a good point. Dave did most of the solos on albums before Marty was introduced into Megadeth. He is really underrated as a Lead Guitarist. I love the solo after the intro on the Conjuring. Yeah, SFSGSW has great riffs, but I still can't go past Rust for the best riffs. Some of them are mindboggling.
Yeah, I think pretty much every 'Deth album has at least one song with awesome riffs, lately I've been listenning to 1000 Times Goodbye alot and I love the intro of that song, up until the first chorus and solo following it is awesome, after that, meh, I usually skip it.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

I've been listening to Hook In Mouth heaps in the last couple of days. I love the lyrics.

[ThrashMaster27]

Yeah, the lyrics are pretty good. Nice to see that Dave fought against the PRMC.

[VicRattlehead99]

Put youre hand right up my shirt
Pull my strintgs and make me work!!
Yes i love the lyrics to the song

[KittensInMicrowaves]

I've been listening to Hook In Mouth heaps in the last couple of days. I love the lyrics.

Great song after a few listens like much of SFSGSW.... those songs I thought all sucked upon first listen, it took multiple listens to appreciate the genius in that album

What would you guys say was the most controversial song in megadeth history?
(Atout la monde, Anarchy in the U.K, ect.

Symphony X confirmed for Gigantour!

NICE! i just read that at megadeths site. This is turning out to be one hell of a show. Gigantour > Ozzfest this year.

[RustedPieces]

I think you'd be the only one in this thread to think that. I respect your opinion though, nobody is wrong. I personally think Marty was the best Guitarist in 'Deth. Chris didn't do enough in the band to warrant me picking him....Same with Jeff. Plus, I think Marty is the best talent wise, as he's considered a Guitar Virtuoso, yet didn't even have training.
Yeah Marty is the best.

[MAthiAS]

Marty really amazes me. The man knows no scales or anything like that, yet he's as good as Becker, has awesome phrasing, and has the best knowledge of the fretboard of anybody.

[vashts80]

W00t w00t

Deth/DT/SX/DKL ! :D

[DisposableHeroes]

He doesnt know any scales? :eek:

Thats really odd for someone of his talent on guitar

[jesterx]

anyone else think "dread and the fugitive mind" is an awsome song?

[DisposableHeroes]

I do, and funnily enough that song was stuck in my head as i read your post

[MAthiAS]

He doesnt know any scales? :eek:

He made his own scales by ear.

[RustedPieces]

anyone else think "dread and the fugitive mind" is an awsome song?
Yeah I love that song.

[jesterx]

Yeah I love that song.
ok, i asked that because some jerk-off metal head poser at my school(every schools got 'em) said megadeth sucked. i played him that off of capitol punishment, he said it sucked, then went on about how bad megadeth sucked, and how you should only listen to metallica. hes lucky the princeapal was around the corner. :angry:

Or maybe it was you who was lucky the principal was around the corner

Yeah, he's probably just stubborn. He probably likes Deth but doesn't want to agree with you.

[Six Foot Revolver]

and what makes you say that? :confused:
It stopped you from retalliating to something stupid

[VicRattlehead99]

Guys has anything been said about children of bodom or testament coming on the gigantor tour yet?

[RustedPieces]

I haven't heard any new news yet.

[Deth]

Megadeth August 7th!!! Go to blabbermouth for tour dates! Plus, Symphony X was confirmed!

Lots of exclamation points!

[FlyingPaul_83]

I don't think i'm going :upset:

I'm going to have to drive from albuquerque NM, to either Tucson AZ, or Dallas TX, Man this ****ing sucks

[MAthiAS]

My tickets are on sale already... I'm going to buy them tomorrow.

[FlyingPaul_83]

Lucky, which show are you going to?

[MAthiAS]

August 24, PNC Arts Center

Section 302.

[RustedPieces]

Aw. They don't have Canadian tour dates yet.

[RiceMonster]

Aw. They don't have Canadian tour dates yet.
Agreed. :(

I'll kill someone if it doesn't come to Canada, although It most likely will.

[RustedPieces]

It will. It's coming to Toronto. I know that for sure, but I'm not sure about anywhere else. They just don't have the dates yet. I'm glad I only live an hour away from Toronto, I've already seen Megadeth there once, it was awesome.

[smashingalice88]

smphony of destruction ...best song

[FlyingPaul_83]

Is driving for 5 hours to go saee megadeth and dreamtheater worth it?

I really wanna see them, but i don't think my parents will drive me.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

Is driving for 5 hours to go saee megadeth and dreamtheater worth it?

I really wanna see them, but i don't think my parents will drive me.
My friend and I drove about 3-4 hours to see Megadeth.

It was ****ing worth it.

[Lord Abortion]

I had a 2 1/2 train journey too see them

[Deth]

Only about an hour from where I am. Needless to say, I am very happy.

[Six Foot Revolver]

I live in England so I can't go :(

[Deth]

Are you going to see them at any festivals?

[Six Foot Revolver]

Nope :(

[Pantera in Chains]

Is driving for 5 hours to go saee megadeth and dreamtheater worth it?

I really wanna see them, but i don't think my parents will drive me.

Well I'm travelling from Iceland to England to see them (well not just them I'm going to Download festival) and I just found out not only will I see them on the 10th of June but also will they be playing about half a mile from me in my town on the 27th of June. Man this will be a ****in great summer. :cool:

[VicRattlehead99]

:amaze: YES!! I am going to the tuscon show as soon as tickets go on sale :D

[Happy]

You americans are lucky with the gigantour and all, after Download no more 'Deth for us, it's the main reason im going this year.

[Uber Smeg]

I reckon we'll get Gigantour over here, at least I hope so. :D

[VicRattlehead99]

Over where? So has any body heard anything about children of badom or testament?

[MAthiAS]

Nope, Dave's supposed to announce the next second stage band next week or this weekend.

[VicRattlehead99]

:upset: Crap i want to know now :angry:

[FlyingPaul_83]

So............................How are they live? are they good, or are they ok. I would like to know beause i don't want to be dissapointed when i see them.(if i see them:upset: )

[RustedPieces]

So............................How are they live? are they good, or are they ok. I would like to know beause i don't want to be dissapointed when i see them.(if i see them:upset: )
****ing amazing! Greatest thing that I ever did with my life, seeing Dave in real life was unreal.

[MAthiAS]

So............................How are they live? are they good, or are they ok. I would like to know beause i don't want to be dissapointed when i see them.(if i see them:upset: )
Yeah, they're amazing live, best show I've ever been to. Course I've never seen Maiden...

[Apocalyptic Raids]

So............................How are they live? are they good, or are they ok. I would like to know beause i don't want to be dissapointed when i see them.(if i see them:upset: )
Go, you won't regret it.

[Lord Abortion]

sorry in advance but maiden live were better than megadeth... not by much though

if they had sorted dave's mike out maybe they would have been equal... or not

[VicRattlehead99]

That sucks i almost went to an iron maiden concert but i had to work,so they are really that good live to be better than megadeth that sucks so bad. :angry:

[VicRattlehead99]

So for the second stage the only bands left for choosing are anthrax,children of bodom or tetament?

[MAthiAS]

No one said that, the bands still possible are Overkill, Dark New Day, Re:Ignition, Life of Agony, Children of Bodom, The Agony Scene, Diecast, Otep, and Anthrax and Testament.

[Deth]

Let's hope for CoB, Anthrax and Testament.

[MAthiAS]

Anthrax won't be on it, they're too big. Dave said he doesn't want to offend them by asking them to be on the second stage. I want Overkill there anyway.

[FlyingPaul_83]

Hopefully testament

[Deth]

A shame about Anthrax, but it's understandable.

[VicRattlehead99]

Yeah well if childrern of bodom go i will be extremely happy anyway.

[acefrehleyjendell]

Funny story about Anthrax :

My girlfriend's ex recently saw them in Melbourne, and arrived at the venue rather early. As Anthrax arrived, the doors to the venue were locked and nobody was opening them, so he helped Joey and Scott kick the doors to the venue open. During the show, one of the guys (not sure, i think it was Scott Ian) Reached out and grabbed his hand and placed a guitar pick in his hand.

I'm really jealous because last month he just happened to meet Dave Mustaine and Glen Drover, and caught one of Mustaine's picks at the show.

now all he needs to do is get a pick from Slayer and he'll have Metallica, Megadeth, Anthrax and Slayer picks.

Wait, you're from Australia?
What are you doing up at this hour?

[MAthiAS]

Children of Bodom can't be on Gigantour due to some schedule conflicts they have. Sucks.

[RustedPieces]

Children of Bodom can't be on Gigantour due to some schedule conflicts they have. Sucks.
Oh well I wouldn't have seen them because if I go I'm staying at the main stage the whole time so I can see Megadeth again.

[VicRattlehead99]

now all he needs to do is get a pick from Slayer and he'll have Metallica, Megadeth, Anthrax and Slayer picks.
Okay sorry i took me so long to post i passed out for a while after i heard that.(joking)but seriously holy crap that is so bad ***!! And children cant come NOOOOOOO!!!!! :upset: That is so gay because i heard testament is travelling with them so if children cant come testament canot come either :upset:

[FlyingPaul_83]

I don't know if this has been shown but i'll show it anyways.

Tornado of souls live

[Uber Smeg]

Over where? So has any body heard anything about children of badom or testament?

UK :)

..and CoB have schedule clashes so won't be a part of Gigantour. :(

[RustedPieces]

What's an easy / thrashy song by Megadeth? or is there no such thing. Because I want to cover one with my friend but I can't decide which one to do.

[FlyingPaul_83]

Take no prisoners?

[RustedPieces]

Take no prisoners?
That's hard though isn't it?

[FlyingPaul_83]

Who is your rythm guitarist?

[RustedPieces]

Probably my friend.

[MAthiAS]

On the bright side, CoB's new album comes out September 19

[FlyingPaul_83]

Probably my friend.


Do you think he can play that song, and can you play the solo, and can you drummer play the drumming part, and can the bassist play the bass part?

[RustedPieces]

Do you think he can play that song, and can you play the solo, and can you drummer play the drumming part, and can the bassist play the bass part?
Me and my friend have only been playing for like 2 years. I could do the rhythm but not the solos.

[FlyingPaul_83]

Me and my friend have only been playing for like 2 years. I could do the rhythm but not the solos.


Well, then find a song that you or your friend can play the solo, and then cover that song.

[RustedPieces]

Sweating bullets it is.

[FlyingPaul_83]

Sweating bullets it is.


good choice, I like the part that marty plays during the chorus.

Who sings in your band?

[RustedPieces]

good choice, I like the part that marty plays during the chorus.

Who sings in your band?
No one yet. It's hard to find a singer that doesn't sing emo. Got a good drummer, 2 guitarists and a bassist.

[FlyingPaul_83]

No one yet. It's hard to find a singer that doesn't sing emo. Got a good drummer, 2 guitarists and a bassist.


Can you sing?

Have you bassist or your other guitarist sing.

[RustedPieces]

Can you sing?

Have you bassist or your other guitarist sing.
No one can, or is willing to try.

[FlyingPaul_83]

No one can, or is willing to try.


Yeah trying to sing like dave would be pretty embarrassing, not to mention the fact that your playing sweating bullets, a song about being a schitzophreniac(sp?)

[RustedPieces]

Yeah trying to sing like dave would be pretty embarrassing, not to mention the fact that your playing sweating bullets, a song about being a schitzophreniac(sp?)
lol, yeah. Well we're getting kind off topic here. Back to Megadeth.

[FlyingPaul_83]

we own this page:thumb:

ok back to megadeth, I'm thinking about getting a new album from them, I have killing is my bussiness, so far so good, peace sells, rust in peace, and the system has failed, so should i get countdown to extinction? or something else?

[Chu]

Why try to sing like Dave? That's impossible.
I think Megadeth with some semi-growl vocals could be cool, no idea what it what sound like, but in my mind the combination works :p

[Apocalyptic Raids]

RustedPieces: Do Mechanix, In My Darkest Hour or Symphony Of Destruction for an easy Megadeth song. I would stay away from Rust In Peace in general if you have only been playing 2 years.

[Lord Abortion]

i'm singing with my band and doing hangar 18...
my vocals are quite growly

[Happy]

[VicRattlehead99]
