Megadeth

[RustedPieces]

The solos in the real song are better than the demo ones IMO.

[MegaMustaine]

123, however I love Poland's lead work, but in the demo he has a weird like pedal I think.

Friedman=orgasm.

[playguitar]

Friedman=orgasm.
It almost sounds like a synthesizer.

[RiceMonster]

Yeah, Friedman's solos were much better than Poland's. Poland's tone annoyed me anyway.

[FlyingPaul_83]

could someone upload the holy wars demo?

[Mark. A]

The intro riff to Holy Wars took me forever to get down. Most stuff on Rust In Peace is pretty complicated to play.

:lol:

Marty Friedman was by far the best guitarist Deth ever had.

The only weak part of Holy Wars is Mustaine's solo.

[FlyingPaul_83]

:lol:

Marty Friedman was by far the best guitarist Deth ever had.

The only weak part of Holy Wars is Mustaine's solo.


I like his solo the best........

[Mark. A]

Ahhh, ok?

That is one hell of a **** solo.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

Friedman > *

[MAthiAS]

...Mustaine's solo on Holy Wars is awesome...

[FlyingPaul_83]

Not really, they avoid some songs because Dave's a Christian loser now though.

What songs do they avoid?

The Conjuring and Good Mouring/Black Friday.

Holy **** that sucks balls, Thos two songs are incredible.

[FlyingPaul_83]

Ahhh, ok?

That is one hell of a **** solo.


care to explain?

[Chu]

...Mustaine's solo on Holy Wars is awesome...
I think it's good too.

[bassist105]

Hopefully I get 'The System Has Failed' on Tuesday, I hear it's a return to the golden ages, listened to most of the tracks and I agree, there's a new slant to their music since the golden days though...

Who's better Friedman or Poland (solo-wise) would you say?

[Esp Griffyn]

Oh man, Im just listening to Megadeth now, until Recently I was all Metallica, then I got the "Rude Awakening" dvd, Im a Convert.

I prefer Friedmans solos, Tornado of souls anyone?

my favourite Megadeth solo, also my favourite Megadeth song, though "Dread and the Fugitive Mind" is growing on me.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

Tornado of Souls = Best.Metal.Solo.Ever

Is Rude Awakening the only album you have?

[bassist105]

Hmmm, one of my favourite songs is Polaris... It seems pretty poor sound quality on my PC though...

[Mazeppa]

could someone upload the holy wars demo?
Here you go

Megadeth-Holy Wars [demo version] (http://rapidshare.de/files/4212007/12_Holy_Wars...The_Punishment_Due__Demo_Version___ ___-_.mp3.html)

[FlyingPaul_83]

thank you :)

[Esp Griffyn]

Tornado of Souls = Best.Metal.Solo.Ever

Is Rude Awakening the only album you have?

I have the Rude Awakening dvd, Peace Sells...But who's buying? and Rust in piece Special Edition remastered cds.

[FlyingPaul_83]

Hopefully I get 'The System Has Failed' on Tuesday, I hear it's a return to the golden ages, listened to most of the tracks and I agree, there's a new slant to their music since the golden days though...


the first track on that album is so incredible live, with pyro effects and all that good stuff.

I just realized how much *** that demo kicks.

[FlyingPaul_83]

ths solos are really weird, and it's missing the acoustic solo thing. It's awesome thought, thanks metal guitar

[Mazeppa]

I just realized how much *** that demo kicks.
Quite often I listen to the demo rather then the proper version, I just prefer it.

NP:Schubert-Piano Sonata in B flat No1

[FlyingPaul_83]

how would you finger this part of hangar 18?

e--18p13------------------13-
b---------15----------15-----
g------------15----15--------
d---------------15-----------

also is this the fingering for this part?
e--17p13----------------13----4and 1
b---------15----------15------3
g------------14----14---------2
d---------------15------------3

[MegaMustaine]

Hmm, tough one. I always found that tough. Are you sweeping I'm assuming?

[FlyingPaul_83]

yes, I'm trying to learn the two first solos in hangar 18

[Father_Jack]

Quite often I listen to the demo rather then the proper version, I just prefer it.

123

I think a couple of the demo versions on CTE (Symphony of Destruction and Psychotron) are both better than the proper studio versions. Even tho I don't like psychotron that much, the demo is pretty cool. And the second solo on symphony of destruction demo version is quality (they also play it live with the second solo.)

[MegaMustaine]

For that fingering question, I bar it all the way through, well if sweeping, I roll it.

[FlyingPaul_83]

what is rolling?

[Happy]

what is rolling?
Basically, rolling your finger.

[FlyingPaul_83]

ah, I think I know what it is know.

[FlyingPaul_83]

ok since I sucat sweeping, what are some good, fairly easy solos that I can start out with?

[MAthiAS]

I'll tab out a little etude I learned sweeping with later for ya.

[FlyingPaul_83]

ok thanks man, but in the mean time, are there any easy solos that i can learn?

[MAthiAS]

Some of Hangar 18, Marty's electric solos in Holy Wars, some in Take No Prisoners too...

Here's that tab, its in Em by the way.

e|-19p15-------------15-19p15--20p15--17p15|-19p14-------------15p14--17p14--19p14-|
B|----------17-----17---------------------------------|----------15-----15------------------------------|
G|--------------16-------------------------------------|--------------16----------------------------------|

e|-15p12--------------15p12--14p12--15p12|-17p14-------------15p14--17p14-|
B|----------13-----13------------------------------|----------15-----15-------------------|
G|--------------12----------------------------------|--------------14------------------------|

Hope that turned out okay.

[FlyingPaul_83]

??????????

I can't fix it caus I don't know what goes where.

[MAthiAS]

That's an exercise that helped me a lot with sweeping.

[FlyingPaul_83]

ok I fixed it. Thanks man :thumb:

I practice really hard and try to get this sweeping stuff down.

[clairvoyant]

Anyone got any audio (or video! yea right...) from the Youthanasia tour? I cant find anything except a few tracks on the Realm Of Megadeth and Tornado Of Souls from Live Trax.

Help would be apreciated

[MAthiAS]

Sorry, none on my HD at the moment. Check Limewire though.

If you see poosh around, he's probably got some bootlegs.

[bassist105]

Even tho I don't like psychotron that much, the demo is pretty cool. And the second solo on symphony of destruction demo version is quality (they also play it live with the second solo.)

I agree, Symphony Of Destruction is a lot better on the demo version, anyone else here like New World Order on Youthanasia?

[clairvoyant]

I agree, Symphony Of Destruction is a lot better on the demo version, anyone else here like New World Order on Youthanasia?

Yea, New World Order is a good song.

[Happy]

I'm probably late with this but yesterday i bought Back to The Start for the dvd. Has any else noticed how you can't hear Marty? I was looking forward to hearing his take on the IMDH solo but no :(

[superflyjojo]

Sorry if it has been asked but can anyone tell me what Megadeth's set list is at gigantour?

[FlyingPaul_83]

who changed the thread title?

edit: nevermind

[RustedPieces]

Megadeth setlist, Blackmail The Universe, Set The World Afire, Skin Of My Teeth, The Scorpion, Wake Up Dead, In My Darkest Hour, Die Dead Enough, She Wolf, Reckoning Day, A Tout La Monde, Trust, Angry Again, Hanger 18, Sweating Bullets, Tornado of Souls, Kick The Chair, Symphony of Destruction, Peace Sells, , Encore: Holy Wars....The Punishment Due

[FlyingPaul_83]

lets see...........this is what I knew they played in no particular order

blackmail the universe
die dead enough
the scorpion
kick the chair
In my darkest hour
A tout le monde
wake up dead
peace sells
hangar 18
tornado of souls
holy wars
symphony of destruction
sweating bullets
skin o my teeth
angry again

this is what I think they played:
hook in mouth or 99 ways to die (the intro sounds the same so I'm not sure)
a song from KIMB

I was suprised that they played a lot of stuff from TSHF, I liked it a lot. I thought they would play mostly old stuff.

[Happy]

That rules in comparison with the Download one:
In no order:
BTU
Scorpion
Holy Wars
Set The World Afire (Or Reckoning Day)
Die, Dead Enough (i think)
She-Wolf
IMDH
Skin O' My Teeth
Wake up Dead
Trust

[Knifeboy]

I love the TSHF songs live

[FlyingPaul_83]

I love the TSHF songs live


hell yes they do

black mail the universe + Pyro = :cool:

[Father_Jack]

Does anyone have any good quality live recordings of the TSHF songs?

[RustedPieces]

I have a video of 'Of Mice and Men', but that's about it.

[vashts80]

Anyone got any audio (or video! yea right...) from the Youthanasia tour? I cant find anything except a few tracks on the Realm Of Megadeth and Tornado Of Souls from Live Trax.

Help would be apreciated

I have a bootleg from 1995-05-22 in Osaka, Japan, and I also have a DVDR of them live in Chile sometime in '95 as well as a few misc TV appearences after Youth was released as well as Night of the Living Megadeth, which was an MTV special that was done on Halloween night 94, which I believe is when Youth was released. The Osaka bootleg is 121MB and the DVDR is..well...4.4GB. I could encode it to 700MB XviD but it'd take ~6 hours to upload.

[FlyingPaul_83]

I am disgusted by the re-recorded Five magics. It is pure disgust. The originl version was 100000000000 times better.

[whatduffhuck7]

its bad? dang, havent herd it yet but that was the song i was looking most forward to on rust in peice.

the first ever megadeth album i eva listend to was cryptic writings. im a major megadeth fan now about 7 years later and i just went back and listend to it again and i think thats one of the more underrated megadeth albums. its not as thrashy as the typical megadeth but surly not a bad album

opinions?

[FlyingPaul_83]

I like cryptic writings. It's a good solid album.

I'll upload five magics for you.


This is probably idiotic, but can someone give me the intro tab to holy wars? There are so many different versions, and I don't know which was is right.

[whatduffhuck7]

wow if you would upload that for me i would greatly appreciate that.

[DJ69]

I just got Megadeth's Greatest Hits, and i have come to the conclusion that they are possibly the MOSTunderrated band EVER.

[Lucr3tia]

I have their whole discography including the demo and Rude Awakening CDs.

what is your sn? i would like to get some of the remasters

they are not underrated. they are in the big three thrash bands. underrated thrash bands is kreator, testament. megadeth is highly reconized of there ability.

thankfully, i have the original.

By the way, i think KIMB is one of the most underrated albums, the remastered version is amazing, Gars drumming is deadly

Testament and Kreator aren't really underrated either. If anything, Testament are overrated.

yesh I have the original aswell, my favorite song ever invented by anyone.

i never hear anything about them except online. on tv, radio or anything else i hear nothing. i did see one testament video though on tv. the was a treat.

[Five Magics]

"Lucretia" is one of the underrated songs from Rust, but it's great of course. Funniest part of "Victory", is when Dave mentions "Lucretia" you hear the little laugh :lol:

[Huber]

Yeah, they've been called underrated too many times to be called underrated anymore.

Victory is such a good song, I love all the references to the other songs.

[lightningmetal666]

I really like the new album The System Has Failed.

I got it a few months after it came out and it is one of the albums I listen to most.

I particularly liked kick the chair, but Blackmail the Universe is pretty cool too.


Damn, is dave a riff master or what? Kinda funny, I've noticed that a lot of those songs are in E minor with the exception of course Shadow of Deth.

I heard a rumor that Ellefson (probably not spelled right) sued Dave and the Band for not (supposedly) getting his fair share of the profits of that album. The rumor pretty much goes along the lines of Ellefson losing.

Comments?

Who knows, there's so many sueing rumors and such that I don't know what to believe. :confused:

[clairvoyant]

That is true, somewhat. Ellefson deserved no profit from The System Has Failed and wasn't arguing for that, he was arguing that he didn't receive enough profits while he was in Megadeth. Ellefson also did not lose the case, the case was just dropped and now Dave is countersuing Junior because of something dealing with contract breaches.

Also I believe Tears In A Vial is in A, but most all Megadeth songs are in E anyways (especially Youthanasia)

[lightningmetal666]

Who knows, there's so many sueing rumors and such that I don't know what to believe. :confused:


I read this in the back of a Metal Edge mag, but I don't always believe what I hear.

Most of you guys are extreme hardcore fans (i love megadeth but not to that extreme) and you're more likely to know what's up then I do.




Talk to you guys tomorrow. I gotta get some sleep. I got to go to school and deal with a bunch of boring music theory classes. :rolleyes:

I wanna thank you again for the Rust in peace cd. :)

[Mazeppa]

Hey no problem :) It was a good trade.

[Knifeboy]

Some guy asked for TSHF songs live in good quality.. I know there is some out there, since a couple of weeks after the release, Megadeth broadcasted one of their liveshows on the radio, and I managed to download a few of the songs live.. But I didn't get any of the TSHF songs so I can't help you with that.. (I did get Holy Wars, and Set the world afire though :D .. )

[Happy]

Oh, any chance you'll upload STWA live please?

P.S. if you're gonna upload please don't use rapidshare, i'm not allowed to d/l off it.

[Knifeboy]

I'll upload the few songs I did get.. "Set The world Afire" "tornado of souls" "Kick the chair (apparently I did get one of the tshf songs)" "Hangar 18" and "Holy Wars"

[Happy]

Cool thanks :)

[Knifeboy]

Ah man, it sucks I didn't download the whole thing while I had the chance.. But I didn't have enough hdd space back then...

[lightningmetal666]

If anyone wants the studio version of TSHF songs, I'd be happy to upload them for you later tonight.

[lightningmetal666]

I just bought the newest edition of Guitar World. It's so f**ckin' awesome 'cuz Dave himself shows you how to play Symphony of Destruction, and talks about the upcoming Gigantour.

[FlyingPaul_83]

yeah, It's funny how Jeff loomis actually tried out to be in Megadeth and dave told him that he wasn't good enough. Then Jeff told Marty Friedman that Megadeth needed a guitar player, and next month he found out that Marty got the job :lol:

[lightningmetal666]

:lol: :lol:

I thought that was great. I check out that jeff loomis solo, and it looked so much harder to do than any megadeth that I've seen. Go figure.

[clairvoyant]

:lol: :lol:

I thought that was great. I check out that jeff loomis solo, and it looked so much harder to do than any megadeth that I've seen. Go figure.

Really? I find Marty solos to be amazing difficult due to his style.

[lightningmetal666]

Well to be honest, I don't know if I've ever seen any of marty's solos. Most of the ones I've seen were chris poland's. Not saying anything bad about him as he truly is an amazing guitarist, but Jeff Loomis's solo definitely look harder than most of Chris's stuff.

[Happy]

The way Marty solos stuff is weird, in videos he kind of half sweeps/half finger picks things. His work with Jason Becker in Cacophony was amazing though.

[Chu]

I have Becker to do Serrana on video, holy **** the guy's insane. He looks about my age too :(

[FlyingPaul_83]

upload?

[Chu]

It's kinda big! Plus, I have to go in 20 minutes. I'll upload it tomorrow.. If someone reminds me :p

[FlyingPaul_83]

ok cool


bye :wave:

[Hells Bells]

I have Becker to do Serrana on video, holy **** the guy's insane. He looks about my age too :(

I don't know how old you are, but I think Becker was like 16 when he started getting into music professionally. But yeah, Cacophony's awesome, it's too bad it was so short-lived.

[Chu]

I don't know how old you are, but I think Becker was like 16 when he started getting into music professionally. But yeah, Cacophony's awesome, it's too bad it was so short-lived.

[Happy]

I'll upload a Becker vid of him when he was 16/17. It's amazing.

[1One1]

Megadeth **** me.

Why?

Their riffs and solos are great. Their lyrics are not wince-inducing (like Manowar) and have the potential to be an awesome band. However, whatever the **** Dave is doing with his voice is WRONG and he should stop it RIGHT ****ING NOW.

[Happy]

Nothing wrong with Dave's voice, it's different but after a while you see it fits Megadeth perfectly.

[Chu]

Nothing wrong with Dave's voice, it's different but after a while you see it fits Megadeth perfectly.
Yeah, Mustaine's voice really suits the music. I dunno, everyone I know reckons it's horrible, and Mustaine can't sing for **** etc. But he can hold a note (Example Back in The Day first solo) and meh, I've just kinda grown to like it.

It's a brilliant guitar solo that.

Unlikely. They may with Gigantour unless they already have and after Gigantour they're splitting up.

[FlyingPaul_83]

It's a brilliant guitar solo that.


the sweeping is cool. I wish I could do that.

I have a video of paul gilbert playing part of that sweeping solo.

[Vortigon]

I went to a Paul Gilbert guitar clinic last week, that man is an incredible musician.

[lightningmetal666]

Unlikely. They may with Gigantour unless they already have and after Gigantour they're splitting up.


Dave is going to disband Megadeth again? :confused:

[clairvoyant]

Yep, after this tour its just gonna be Daves solo stuff.

[lightningmetal666]

WTF??!!!!

I thought that dave was all ready to redo Megadeth now that he recovered from his arm injury.
Now that just blows. :upset:

[clairvoyant]

WTF??!!!!

I thought that dave was all ready to redo Megadeth now that he recovered from his arm injury.
Now that just blows. :upset:

Nope, the System Has Failed was actually gonna be a Dave Mustaine solo album but he owed Sanctuary one more Megadeth cd, so that became it.

[RustedPieces]

There is a possibility of Dave continuing Megadeth, that's what he's been saying.

[Happy]

Yeah, at Download he was like "I'm sure i'll see you all again." That could mean he's sticking with Megadeth or he's focusing on MD.45.

[Bazarov]

Dave just said on Headbangers' right now that he would love for Gigantour to be an annual event, which would be great, considering some people have been telling me that Dave said Gigantour was just going to be a one time thing.

[Joe]

There is a possibility of Dave continuing Megadeth, that's what he's been saying.

That'd be great. I like them. Do they have a new album on the way any time soon?

[Apocalyptic Raids]

That'd be great. I like them. Do they have a new album on the way any time soon?
Depends if Mustaine wants to continue Megadeth. If he does, I think a new album woule be at least 18 months away.

[Bazarov]

Like an Ozzfest? That'd be awesome.

Yeah it would, but he didn't say if it was going to be Megadeth or MD45 that would be headlining. Hopefully it would be Megadeth. Is MD45 any good? I haven't heard any of their songs.

[Joe]

Megadeth would be good. Maybe some other big metal bands (i doubt Metallica) maybe Iron Maiden, CoB, In Flames, etc. I don't know.

Megadeth would be good. Maybe some other big metal bands (i doubt Metallica) maybe Iron Maiden, CoB, In Flames, etc. I don't know.

Metallica and Megadeth would be an awesome show, especially if they added Slayer to that show aswell. But I'm sure there'd be fan-boy disputes and ruin the atmosphere. Maiden or Children of Bodom would be just as great too. If he does do gigantour. Or actually I'd love to see the band line-up from the Marty era.

Whoa, like that would be great if the bill was Megadeth, Metallica, Slayer, Judas Priest, Maiden, etc. etc.

I would have to sell my left nut to get tix for that show. :lol:

[clairvoyant]

Metallica and Megadeth would be an awesome show, especially if they added Slayer to that show aswell. But I'm sure there'd be fan-boy disputes and ruin the atmosphere. Maiden or Children of Bodom would be just as great too. If he does do gigantour. Or actually I'd love to see the band line-up from the Marty era.

Heck yea!

I'd do anything to see a concert with Menza and Friedman again.

[lightningmetal666]

Hey It'd be great if Dave, Chris and Marty all shared the same stage at the same time.

It would be something like the G3 tours. Metal shred at its finest. :thumb:

[MAthiAS]

I think its weird to think that Dave and Glen and even Petrucci were not very impressive at Gigantour, when you consider how well Jeff Loomis and Michael Romeo played. Loomis can shred as well as anyone I've ever seen, he's so underrated.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

I can't see Slayer going on Gigantour. Didn't Dave and Kerry King have some cat-fight?

gocaps: Get Rust in Peace. Classic, although try get the original, I'm not to keen on the remaster.

Indeed, I'd say try to get every original that was made in the 1990s.

Peace Sells and SFSGSW (and KIMB) remasters > the originals

but the rest of the originals are better than the remasters imo

[Mother]

Next year hopefully gigantour will get bigger, all the maiden fans are boycotting ozzfest...hahaha.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

None of the albums needed the remastering except KIMB, which had already been done in 2002.

[MAthiAS]

^^SFSGSW did.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

I guess. Not desperatly though.

[MAthiAS]

The Five Magics remaster totally massacred the song. He even sung the wrong lyric once in it.

[RustedPieces]

The Take No Prisoners re-master also isn't as good as the original.

[Chu]

Jason started playing when he was 5, how about you?
lol.. Well.. I didn't start until 16, and even then I never really played it much. It wasn't until I was 18 when I really started playing...

[Happy]

So that's 13 years of catching up to do...

I cmpletley agree, Jeff loomis is incredibly underrated. I love his solos so much, so technical and fluent. The solo in I Voyager is completely mind blowing.

[FlyingPaul_83]

The Take No Prisoners re-master also isn't as good as the original.


I don't like the vocals in take no prisoners or five magics remaster. Dave sings the wrong lyrics, the secondary vocals sound very weird, and they just aren't as badass as the original songs

[Happy]

I preferred the re-master of TNP.

[Esp Griffyn]

Loomis is good, but he's no Rusty Cooley.

I disagree.. The remastered version of Holy wars.. The punishment is due.. Made the best song in the world, even better

It would be awesome if Iron Maiden joiend Gigantour next year.. Not that I'd be able to see them since I'm european, but it'd be a nice slap in the face for sharon

That was the set at the House of Blues show in AC tonight. It owned majorly, except the mixing guy messed up and you couldn't really hear the vocals for any of the bands.

I got there at about 6:30, which was about 3/4s of the way through Dillenger's set. I think they played maybe 2 more songs after I got there, and then Fear Factory tore it up for their slot. Then Dream Theater came on and hot ****, it was great. Then the mighty Megadeth, complete with James MacDonahugh's red ESP bass for most of the set and strobe lights in the place of pyro. Show ended at about 11:50.

wow what were you thinking missing nevermore?

but that's awesome man, I think or setlists are alike.

[vashts80]

What happened was, my dad took me. He owns his own towing company, and his co-worker couldn't take over for him until around 5:15, so we left at 5:45 and got in around 6:30 between getting to Showboat, traveling around the parking garage, getting inside, getting checked, checking the cameras in (:() and actually getting into the music hall :\

[MAthiAS]

Loomis is good, but he's no Rusty Cooley.
I'm glad, because Cooley is boring as ****.

It sucks they didn't play Back in the Day. I would've traded Angry Again for it easily. And it seems Dave lied about playing Five Magics, Take No Prisoners, Rattlehead, or Hook in Mouth.

[vashts80]

I love MacDonough's tone. It's absolutely amazing, one of the best bass tones I've ever heard. /me wants GKs

That is the same exact set list they played when I saw them a month ago, I guess they aren't really switching it up. I wish they would've played some stuff off of KIMB

[Apocalyptic Raids]

They played Mechanix and Back In The Day when I saw them :D

[FlyingPaul_83]

They played Mechanix and Back In The Day when I saw them :D


but you didn't see them on gigantour right? or did you? I wish they played five magics and Take no prisoners. That would've been cool.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

Nah, I saw them on the Blackmail The Universe tour.

I'm going to see Gigantour in Montreal on September 2 and I am very excited as I have heard that they are going to film the show. I am REALLY hoping that a Megadeth song that is not played often will make it into the setlist. I mean, the current setlist is badass...but how could Dave put "Angry Again" over something from the very first album the band released?

[Happy]

Maybe they might do Rattlehead.

[Blind Guardian]

Great band, Mustaine is awesome.

they are recording the show because its the last show that dream theater is doing if I'm not mistaken.

[RustedPieces]

Nope that's my show!!! :D :D Sept. 3rd! Symphony X's last show too.

oh cool, Have fun with that :)

[Hollywood Rose]

Can't wait for Gigantour!

I really wish I saw Anthrax instead of DT... DT were really not a good live band, and they played their worst songs.

Nah, I just live equal distance between the two, so it doesn't really matter which one I would have gone too :)

Yeah that really sucks, i have never seen them. I will just try to see Dave live when he goes solo.

i thought he already had solo songs, just hadn't toured yet?

[Father_Jack_The_2nd]

i thought he already had solo songs, just hadn't toured yet?

I haven't heard anything.

[Happy]

Yeah he does have a solo album out.

[Josh]

ah well, will just have to wait and see. hopefully he'll tour soon :)

[Father_Jack_The_2nd]

Yeah he does have a solo album out.

Anyone have it and can send me it via AIM?

[Diex]

The ought to get Slayer, Anthrax, Metallica, and Megadeth to headline some "Return of the Thrash Tour" or something along the lines of that, and so no feelings are hurt about who opens up and closes the show, the bands rotate for each different show, so everyone gets a chance to go. Although the possibilities of this are near non-existant, it would kick major ***.

Yeah so you're pretty much dreaming there. Altho it would kick some major a$$

[MAthiAS]

Slayer and Metallica wouldn't tour with Megadeth. But Testament and Exodus would :D

[Happy]

I've only got a couple songs, you could try requesting a few songs in the YSI thread.

[FlyingPaul_83]

mmmmm exodus :naughty:

and Kreator :naughty:

[Chu]

Kreator's sweet. Can't stop listening to Violent Revolution recently.

[MAthiAS]

Ah, a Kreator and Exodus tour would be sex.

[clairvoyant]

Exodus...very good live band. The rocked when I saw them in DC.

[Huber]

I'm liking these tour ideas...heh

Didn't Dave say the fans would know his decision about Megadeth at the end of Gigantour, and when is it over?

[MAthiAS]

Yeah, I think he said he's 99% sure Deth is done though.

I don't know if I really care either way... Deth is too big now for their live show to be too special anymore unfortunately.

[Huber]

I still haven't seen Megadeth live...that makes me sad.

He better make up for it with an awesome solo career.

[BassMasterMike88]

I still haven't seen Megadeth live...that makes me sad.

He better make up for it with an awesome solo career.

I'm pretty sure that being booted from 'Tallica and forming Deth is almost a solo career in itself.

[Happy]

Well, Megadeth is basically Megadave, he's the only original member and he writes most of the songs himself.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

I'm pretty sure that being booted from 'Tallica and forming Deth is almost a solo career in itself.
Well its only been like a solo career since they came back. It never was before 2002.

[RustedPieces]

Kreator's sweet. Can't stop listening to Violent Revolution recently.
I only listen to Kreator when I'm mad. But everytime I do I like them a little more.

[clairvoyant]

Yea before 2002 David ellefson did a fair amount of writing and before Marty and Nick were kicked out/left they wrote a decent amount of stuff too, so it wasnt always just Dave.

[Happy]

But most of the great songs are written just by him.

[clairvoyant]

Not necesarily, Dave Ellefson wrote some of Tornado Of Souls and Lucretia. The entire band wrote Ashes In Your Mouth, and the entire band wrote all of Youthanasia.

[MAthiAS]

Like with most bands, there was a main songwriter, that was Dave in Megadeth. But the other members did contribute to the writing process.

[Five Magics]

What does anyone think what would have happened if any one of the line-ups stayed together for the entire duration of the band? (For example, Dave, Jr., Marty, and Nick from KIMB to TSHF).

[clairvoyant]

It would have started with the best metal band ever and ended with some crazy pop-metal poser band.

[MAthiAS]

Yeah, probably.

Better question, what if Dimebag and Vinnie had joined up instead of Marty and Nick when they were asked?

[FlyingPaul_83]

That would've been weird, I like dimebag, but He doesn't seem to fit megadeth. I don't think I would like it as much as marty and nick.

[MAthiAS]

Me either... because I don't really like Pantera much outside of CFH.

[Happy]

Yeah, probably.

Better question, what if Dimebag and Vinnie had joined up instead of Marty and Nick when they were asked?
I don't know, I think you'd get RIP at half the speed with a million harmonics, nothing wrong with Pantera but I <3 RIP.

[fatbandit]

I prefer Vinnie's Drumming, but Dime's shred style would have been in total contrast with Marty or Chris. To be honest, I think it would have been cool, with the two entirely different tones and styles with the guitars.

Also, Dime is synonymous with Drop D in my mind. Wonder how that would have worked out.

:smash:

[Father_Jack]

I don't know, I think you'd get RIP at half the speed with a million harmonics, nothing wrong with Pantera but I <3 RIP.

Pantera rule, but RIP is one of my all time favourite albums, and i couldn't imagine it any other way.

N.P. Holy Wars \m/ :cool: \m/

[Five Magics]

I prefer Menza over Vinnie Paul. I don't think people realize how good Menza was during Rust.

We should call it Hangar 18, nobody really knows what goes on in here.

My vote is Thread 18.
Also good.

[FlyingPaul_83]

yeah^^^

[RustedPieces]

So any suggestions for the new thread name?

My vote is Thread 18.
No one would know that it was a Megadeth thread though. It should be Shadow of Deth or something like that, or something a little more obvious.

[Mazeppa]

They would just have to read the first page of the thread and it would be fairly obvious what the thread was about.

[Five Magics]

The thread name for Megadeth could be: "The Arsenal of Megadeth"

[superflyjojo]

Can someone upload Mechanix? I've heard its way better than The Four Horsemen, and I'd like to compare.

[.Realm.of.Chaos.]

5 days til I get to see Megadeth!! I'm so stoked!!! Anyone else here goingto Gigantour in Calgary, AB?

[MAthiAS]

Thread 18 would definitely be the best thread name. If people haven't heard Hangar 18, they shouldn't even be in the thread anyway, so its perfect.

Then if it gets closed, we can have 'Return to Thread' :D

[Apocalyptic Raids]

My vote is either Thread 18 or Hangar 18.

MAthias: :lol:

[Mazeppa]

Megadeth-The Mechanix (http://www.megaupload.com/?d=014508LI)

[Apocalyptic Raids]

So should I ask to get the thread name changed to Thread 18?

[DimebagDarrell]

Yeah, probably.

Better question, what if Dimebag and Vinnie had joined up instead of Marty and Nick when they were asked?

As far as i remember Dave only wanted Dime and Dime wouldnt join unless vinnie was allowed too as well so it didnt work out.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

I can't imagine Dime and Vinnie on RIP. It just wouldn't work. I could imagine them on something like Countdown though...
