Megadeth

[MAthiAS]

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.
Yeah, because Dave had already hired Nick.
I can't imagine Dime and Vinnie on RIP. It just wouldn't work. I could imagine them on something like Countdown though...
Same... I can't imagine Dime playing a thrash album.
So should I ask to get the thread name changed to Thread 18?
Go for it.

[RustedPieces]

I went to Gigantour yesterday and it was amazing. Since it was Dream Theatre's last show, during Peace Sells, the drummer for Megadeth played guitar and Mike Portnoy came out and played drums :eek:. It was awesome. I was front row centre too.

[RiceMonster]

5 days til I get to see Megadeth!! I'm so stoked!!! Anyone else here goingto Gigantour in Calgary, AB?
I was just at Gigantour last night in Toronto. It was amazing! Believe me, you'll ****ing love the show.

That's the same one I was at :eek:! I was a bit far back, but I still had an excellent view.

[RustedPieces]

Yeah that was an amazing show.

[WheepingGuitar39]

I saw Megadeth in Montreal.
I was never really a fan of Megadeth.. actually I was never really a fan of metal.
But I think I'm a metalhead now.. I've been listening to Megadeth for the last 2 days.

Megadeth OWNED. Those **** fireworks were the best.
And there is nothing better than turning 18 while Dave Mustaine is pulling a solo with the flag of quebec wrapped around him, singing in french.

Pure ownage.

[Happy]

I didn't get fireworks :(

[WheepingGuitar39]

I didn't get fireworks :(
well the Montreal concert is the one that will be on DVD maybe thats why
but .. the fireworks looked like a petrol factory spitting fire.. (I was sitting like 10 rows away and I could feel the intense heat on my face).
But that wasnt the bad part, the explosions werent .. BOOM.
they were.. PAAAAAF.
Like a firecracker.. but 10 000x louder.
It was insane.

[RustedPieces]

Mine had the fireworks too. Scared me a few times, they were so damn loud! And I could feel the heat off of the fire.

It was cool when Fear Factory played Walk for a tribute to Dimebag.

[Happy]

Cool. I will definately be buying the DVD.

[MAthiAS]

I didn't get fireworks either, just pyro.

[FlyingPaul_83]

Yeah, but the Pyro was freakin awesome.

[fatbandit]

So I just bought PSBWB.

My analysis?

Its about 50/50 good and bad IMO.

Doesn't stack up to RIP (but then, from what I hear, few metal albums do), but it still has some nice choons.

I'm loving Peace Sells, Good Mourning/Black Friday and My Last Words mostly.

Though I Ain't Superstitious ruins the flow somewhat for me. It doesn't sound very Megadethy.

More hard rock/blues kind of thing :|

:smash:

[FlyingPaul_83]

I Ain't Superstitious is a cover


what about the conjuring, or devils island?

very awesome songs

[fatbandit]

That would explain a lot.

They were okay, but didn't leap out as eat-your-face catchy metal choons like Take No Prisoners, say.

:smash:

[Happy]

I Ain't Superstitious is a cover


what about the conjuring, or devils island?

very awesome songs
Devil's Island rules.

[Dash]

Im going to Gigantour in Vancouver in 5 days cant wait!

[MAthiAS]

They were okay, but didn't leap out as eat-your-face catchy metal choons like Take No Prisoners, say.
TNP isn't catchy, its just kickass.

Peace Sells is very overrated, but its still good. Wake Up Dead, The Conjuring, Peace Sells, and Devil's Island being the highlights IMO.

[fatbandit]

Wake Up Dead didn't catch my attention so much.

The Conjuring didn't really sink in as a song much. Just kind of went in one ear out the other.

What album is recommendable as a next purchase?

:smash:

[adiovivo]

Im going to Gigantour in Vancouver in 5 days cant wait!

There's a band out of surrey, bc called loose vancouver, and they are ROCKIN!
:chug:

megadeth is a little too much not like music for my tastes, but i havent heard that much of them: recomendations appreciated! :naughty:

[Dude3]

Just buy the Rust In Peace album. You wont regret it.

[FlyingPaul_83]

Peace Sells is very overrated, but its still good. Wake Up Dead, The Conjuring, Peace Sells, and Devil's Island being the highlights IMO.


you don't like good mourning/black friday?

Wow you are really annoying. To adiovivo.

Ok You must buy atleast one Megadeth album heres best to least IMO:

1.Rust In Peace
2. Peace Sells But Whose Buying?
3. So Far So Good So What?
4.Countdown To Extinction
5. The System Has Failed
6.Youthanasia
7.Killing is My Business
8.Cryptic Writings
9. The World Needs A Hero
10. Risk

Megadeth are my fav band of all time and you must pick up Rust In Peace which is the best metal album of all time. But remember youl have to give each cd a bunch of listens before you start liking it.

[Mazeppa]

Wake Up Dead didn't catch my attention so much.

The Conjuring didn't really sink in as a song much. Just kind of went in one ear out the other.

What album is recommendable as a next purchase?

At first I didn't really appreciate PSBWB, but then it really grew on me. It's my favourite album along with RIP.

7.Killing is My Business
7? wtf?

[Father_Jack]

At first I didn't really appreciate PSBWB, but then it really grew on me. It's my favourite album along with RIP.

It took me a good while to get into that album, but now i find it their best behind RIP.

Your list sucks, KIMB is easily in the top 3.

[Father_Jack]

Your list sucks, KIMB is easily in the top 3.

123

And i heard for many people SFSGSW sucks, to put it nicely.

[MAthiAS]

SFSGSW is also in their top 3 IMO...

RIP > KIMB = SFSGSW > Cryptic Writings > CTE = Youth = PSBWB > TWNAH > Risk

[adiovivo]

what about DSOTM? :confused:

[Father_Jack]

Does anyone else think I Aint Superstitious is really ace even tho the guitar sounds really corny, and so does the whole song really.

N.P. Megadeth - I Aint Superstitious :duh:

[MAthiAS]

Dark Side of the Moon is Pink Floyd.
Does anyone else think I Aint Superstitious is really ace even tho the guitar sounds really corny, and so does the whole song really.
No, you're the only one in the world.

[Mazeppa]

Does anyone else think I Aint Superstitious is really ace even tho the guitar sounds really corny, and so does the whole song really.

No, you're the only one in the world.
Oh no!

[fatbandit]

Where's PSBWB in your list, mathias?

:smash:

[MAthiAS]

O shi

[fatbandit]

Bass playingwise though, I think I'd put PSBWB maybe above RIP...?

Not sure though.

:smash:

[Happy]

I make list because lists are stupid
1.RIP (OMG)
2.SFSGSW(OMG)
3.TWNAH (OMG)
4.KIMB
5.PSBWB
6.CTE
go figure out the rest.

[Metallogy]

I was at the Gigantour last night...

The whole night was so ****ing awesome, I couldn't believe it, standing their bashing my head to Megadeth only two meters away from the stage within the pit. Dave was right their! lol...

Megadeth played with strong musicianship close to perfection & within those 2 hours or less they busted my brain! My neck still hurts from headbanging.

I hope another Gigantour comes around, I'm sure looking forward to the DVD of this tour. (They filmed Peace Sells with Mike Portnoy of Dream Theater on drums in Toronto) All and all this was one of the best concerts I ever went too!


My Top 3 Megadeth CD's would be:
PSBWB
KIMB (It's my fav right now though...)
RIP

[MAthiAS]

Bass playingwise though, I think I'd put PSBWB maybe above RIP...?

Hey should I ask for the name change to Thread 18? AR didn't ask.

Done.

Everyone I've seen it was said only Montreal was recorded for DVD and CD release.
But maybe that scene in Toronto will be part of the extras?

[Chu]

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
lol, yes!

SFSGSW is also in their top 3 IMO...

RIP > KIMB = SFSGSW > Cryptic Writings > CTE = Youth = PSBWB > TWNAH > Risk
You've been listening to SFSGSW recently?
I don't remember your last list having SFSGSW so high.. :p

imo... SFSGSW > RIP > *

I've always loved SFSGSW. In the past I've put it below KIMB. Now I think they're about equal.

[Five Magics]

I find KIMB and SFSGSW to be often overlooked and underrated albums becuase PSBWB and RIP get most of the attention.

[Happy]

I really think the sound quality of KIMB turns a lot of people off.

[Five Magics]

^^^not unless they listen to the remastered version. The KIMB remastered cd sounds very tight and clean, you can hear everything perfectly...especially Gar

[Happy]

Even the remastered version, It's not of the quality of the remastered PSBWB for example.

[RustedPieces]

Are the demos that they put on the CD remasterd too?

[Happy]

Nope, they're all original untampered demos.

[RustedPieces]

That's what I thought, he sounds like a chipmunk on them.

[Happy]

Dave'a chipmunk voice>every other singer. Well maybe not.

[Chu]

I've always loved SFSGSW. In the past I've put it below KIMB. Now I think they're about equal.
oic

I think I have actually grown to like Mustaine's chipmunk voice, although, whenever I show a Megadeth song to someone who's never heard Megadeth before, they can't stand his voice...

[Happy]

I kinda stole this from a thread in the pit but meh.
If you guys want an idea of what Megadeth would've been like had Vinnie and Dime joined got to Media player and play RIP at half the speed.
Play>Play Speed> Slow.

[MAthiAS]

MY WMP doesn't have that it seems.

[Happy]

I think it's only with WMP10. Either that or you need to maximize it so you can see File, View ect.

[MAthiAS]

I don't have that button. Windows 98 :(

Someone go ask to have the thread name changed. I've done it twice to no avail.

[Happy]

I think Ken won't take Thread 18, we need some more names.

[MAthiAS]

Ah yes, just read his post.

[Happy]

Can't we just use a song title that's obvious to Megadeth like
Holy Wars...The Punishment Due?

The World Needs A Megadeth Thread

I don't know, they're both good, but I'm kinda liking the "The world needs a Megadeth thread".

"The Arsenal of Megadeth"

i should warn you, im not a big fan of megadeth :upset: but i would like "MEGATHRED" or "MEGATHRED- The Megadeth Thread!" :smoke:

[willis2441]

last time i ever posted in this thread i had heard no megadeth album.now i own killing is my buisness,rust in peace,youthanasia,cryptic writings and greatest hits.i also know their former drummer jimmy degrasso,speaking of drummers,who do you think was thier best?i think it had to be gar samuelson,well, a tie between him and jimmy

[MAthiAS]

Menza by far.

[willis2441]

Menza by far.
haha why menza?he hasnt been playing forty years like jimmy,and i didnt hear any double bass beats from menza near as good as gars or jimmys

[clairvoyant]

Nick Menza > all other Megadeth drummers

Jimmy DeGrasso was not a very good live drummer.

Gar rocks.

[clairvoyant]

haha why menza?he hasnt been playing forty years like jimmy,and i didnt hear any double bass beats from menza near as good as gars or jimmys

Have you ever watched the She-Wolf drum solo on rude awakening? Its not very impressive plus he screws up.

Nick > Jimmy

[willis2441]

haha.i know jimmy and have seen him play less than two feet in front of me,and he blows away menza by far.the beginning to rust in peace isnt even that good,hell i can play it.

[Metalhead1409]

Has anyone had trouble finding the greatest hits CD in stores? I looked everywhere but i couldn't find it. I live near New Orleans and it wasnt untill I left for the Huricane and went to Texas untill i found a copy of it.

[MAthiAS]

haha.i know jimmy and have seen him play less than two feet in front of me,and he blows away menza by far.the beginning to rust in peace isnt even that good,hell i can play it.

Dude I'm sorry but I think you are the only Megadeth fan who thinks Jimmy is better than Nick or Gar.

Thats like saying Jeff Young > Marty.

[willis2441]

No one thinks the beginning of Rust In Peace is hard dude.
im not tryin to make anyone hate me but i know gar and jimmy are better than nick and chuck behler

[Chu]

Thats like saying Jeff Young > Marty.
:D
Maybe not skill wise, definately not skill wise, but I really prefer some of Young's solos... :p

But it's like proven Megadeth fact, best line-up was Menza, Friedman, Ellefson and Mustaine.

[willis2441]

that was the best line up,i do agree.is theyre new drummer any good?

[Hells Bells]

:D
Maybe not skill wise, definately not skill wise, but I really prefer some of Young's solos... :p

But it's like proven Megadeth fact, best line-up was Menza, Friedman, Ellefson and Mustaine.

It was their most stable line up... and also the one that created a few of my favourite Megadeth albums :p (Rust in Peace, Countdown to Extinction, Youthanasia).

[willis2441]

so...is "the systen has failed" any good?

[MAthiAS]

Yeah, its very good, and Drover is a pretty capable drummer. He's no Flo Mounier or anything though.

[Metalhead1409]

i heard "Die Dead Enough" and "Of Mice and Men" and liked it but thats the only 2 songs i heard from it.

[MAthiAS]

Blackmail the Universe, Kick the Chair, and Back in the Day are the best songs off TSHF.

[willis2441]

Yeah, its very good, and Drover is a pretty capable drummer. He's no Flo Mounier or anything though.
IMO drumming isnt how many BPM u can do,or how fast u can play double bass,its about putting a backbone onto the song,putting that perfect beat that fits the song into the song.

[MAthiAS]

Okay. Flo Mounier does all that and more. He makes Cryptopsy worth listening to.

[FlyingPaul_83]

Blackmail the Universe, Kick the Chair, and Back in the Day are the best songs off TSHF.


what about shadow of deth? Thats a cool song

[MAthiAS]

They're all good, but those three are the highlights for me.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

I said in the report problems thread that our other suggestion was "Megadeth Is Our Business... And Business Is Good!"

Yay, thank you SonorKen :thumb:

Thanks Ken.

[FatalEnergy]

Yeah, those three are definatley the best. I wonder why a lot of people of don't like TSHF, it's the best Megadeth has done in years.

[Huber]

Nice thread titled guys :thumb:

[MAthiAS]

Yeah, those three are definatley the best. I wonder why a lot of people of don't like TSHF, it's the best Megadeth has done in years.
Yeah, its a solid album. I think Cryptic was better though, even though its not very heavy.

[Metalhead1409]

I like Rust in Peace over all

[Apocalyptic Raids]

mm new thread title. I feel loved :-*

Even though this is a few pages late. I rank the megadeth albums so:

RIP > Peace Sells > SFSGSW (worst acronym ever) > KIMB > the others

[clairvoyant]

Yeah, its very good, and Drover is a pretty capable drummer. He's no Flo Mounier or anything though.

Glen Drover, Shawn Drover, and James MacDonohugh (sp?) didn't play on The System Has Failed...

[MAthiAS]

Glen Drover, Shawn Drover, and James MacDonohugh (sp?) didn't play on The System Has Failed...
I know that, but that's the current lineup, which I believe he was asking for. TSHF just had session musicians (including Poland), which I'm sure you know already.

[Happy]

I thought Mustaine, Ellefson, Menza(he helped out) and Poland played on the new album.
The thread name is awesome.

[Dude3]

Awesome thread name!

[IAJP]

I love this thread's name.


(MP3 Check: I have 30 Megadeth songs on my MP3 player, out of about 105 songs, :cool:.)

I wish i had an MP3 player, i got angry at my old one and broke it :(

[clairvoyant]

I thought Mustaine, Ellefson, Menza(he helped out) and Poland played on the new album.

Nope. Just Mustaine, and Chris Poland did a few solos. The rest was session players, one named Jimmy Lee Sloas and I forget the other.

[Happy]

Oic, I dunno where i got the idea of Menza playing on it from.

[lightningmetal666]

I prefer the new album to rust in peace actually. It really is a great thrash record and has a great sound to it. I love Dave and Chris' guitar tones. I still say that countdown to extinction was their best though IMO.


Hey go to www.mi.edu As it turns out at this college the Metal workshop instructor is none other than Marty ****ing Freidman!!!!!

I was talking to this guy in my class who is graduating this year and is going to do the GIT program there and he says that when marty is there, You can actually sit-in with him and he'll do a sick lead over whatever progression you're playing. How ****in' tight is that?


BTW, great thread name. :thumb:

[Happy]

Nah It pales in comparison to RIP.

[Father_Jack]

Nah It pales in comparison to RIP.

123 x Infinity

RIP is just the better of all the albums, no question.

[lightningmetal666]

I do like songs like 5 magiks, take no prisoners, and holy wars but the tone and amps sound much better on TSHF.

[Happy]

Have you heard the remastered version of the RIP album?

[Father_Jack]

I do like songs like 5 magiks, take no prisoners, and holy wars but the tone and amps sound much better on TSHF.

Re-mastered version?

Does anyone have this? Is it a great improvement on the original?

I personally like the tone, if the guitars were just a little more defined. I love that raw and brutal thrash sound.

[MAthiAS]

I prefer the new album to rust in peace actually. It really is a great thrash record and has a great sound to it. I love Dave and Chris' guitar tones. I still say that countdown to extinction was their best though IMO.
TSHF isn't thrash; its got 3 thrash songs.

Remastered RIP sucks, because they completely ruined Five Magics.

[lightningmetal666]

Have you heard the remastered version of the RIP album?


Actually no I haven't. I only have the regular version of it. I got it about 2 years ago and I thought it was pretty rockin' until I got TSHF. The first and third tracks sound so huge and loud.

[RustedPieces]

TSHF isn't thrash; its got 3 thrash songs.

Remastered RIP sucks, because they completely ruined Five Magics.
They also ruined Take No Prisoners, the vocals are sooo much better on the original.

[Father_Jack]

Can anyone upload anything from the re-mastered RIP so I can see what they did with it?

p.s the demo version of holy wars is pretty cool, but not as good as studio.

[MAthiAS]

They also ruined Take No Prisoners, the vocals are sooo much better on the original.
Five Magics is the only one I've heard off the remastered, and its so bad, I wouldn't want to hear the rest of the album :(

I'll upload Holy wars for you, I haven't got the time to upload the full album right now.

There ya go. :)

Muchas gracias.

I thought it was exactly the same when I first heard the drums come in. Its ok but it sounds a bit weird. Original > Remaster > Demo

I'm undecided on the vocals.

[fatbandit]

I only have the remastered :lol:

Anyone got the original Five Magics or TNP for me to see how ruined these are?

(I quite like this Five Magics and TNP :confused: )

/duh

[Happy]

Hmm, I see how FM is different, perhaps if you keep the original guitar bass and vox and add the remastered drums it'd be pretty neat.

[fatbandit]

So what did Dave do to remaster them? :confused:

Redo the singing and backing vox, as well as bass (I can't tell guitarwise)?

Seems a bit extreme.

:smash:

[Happy]

I think he re-did everything. Aah, I think that's what Ellefson and Menza helped out on.

[Darkness]

Good name guys.

[Father_Jack]

I think he re-did everything. Aah, I think that's what Ellefson and Menza helped out on.

I can't belive he re-did everything. The guitars sound exactly the same on Holy Wars remaster and original.

[fatbandit]

The basic frame of the songs (I guess guitars) is the same methinks :confused:

However, its still Ellefson etc playing on the remaster then? :confused:

:smash:

[FlyingPaul_83]

Remastered RIP sucks, because they completely ruined Five Magics.


Yes they did, The original is 1000000 times better. Tornado of souls sounds exactly the same which is good. Holy wars sounds great, Hangar 18 is better, Take no prisoners sucks compared to the old one.

[Happy]

I can't belive he re-did everything. The guitars sound exactly the same on Holy Wars remaster and original.
Ithink using a computer can only remaster something to a certain point, take KIMB for example. He re-did it to get the TSHF quality.

[fatbandit]

So its not remastered, its re-recorded?

:smash:

[Happy]

So its not remastered, its re-recorded?

:smash:
I really don't know for sure, I could be spouting a load of crap but it sounds like he re-recorded everything I mean the lyrics are different in places and his voice is different.

[RustedPieces]

hxxp://s30.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=310AC83RFS6S2231FKV8LDIQ3W
There ya go. :)
Is that the re-mastered Holy Wars?

[Apocalyptic Raids]

He didn't re-record everything, but some of the master tapes were missing for Rust In Peace.

[firemoth12]

Am I the only one who thinks the remastered Holy Wars sounds better than the original?? (I don't know about the rest of the songs.)

It's just so much clearer...you can actually hear the snare. I don't see why people have problems with it.

[RustedPieces]

I don't have problems with the Holy Wars remaster, but the ones where he redid the vocals are horrible.

[Themadhatter]

I'll agree in that the Take No Prisoners remaster blows in full. It's 100% ****. Having listened to the originals for going on 6 years now, I'm just not into these remasters. I've grown so accustom to hearing the little blips in recordings and such. To take them out is just unorthodox!

[MAthiAS]

Someone upload the remastered TNP for me, for favor.

[Deconstruction]

Hangar 18 has a weird video......IMO

/just thought I would put that out there but the song is good

[Dude3]

Can somebody upload the original "Take No Prisoners" for me? I've only heard the remastered.

[RustedPieces]

There.

[clairvoyant]

In my opinion every 90s Megadeth album was made worse with these remasters.

Peace Sells and SFSGSW are far better now, however.

[willis2441]

I think he re-did everything. Aah, I think that's what Ellefson and Menza helped out on.
no i think menza was gone when he did the remasters,im not sure though

[Knifeboy]

I still hold on to my opinion that the remaster of Holy Wars is absolutely godly, and made the best song in the world better

[Huber]

I like the remasters more than the originals that I have, but that's only KIMB and RIP.

[Schism666]

no i think menza was gone when he did the remasters,im not sure though


Yeh menza was long gone he left in like 98

[Apocalyptic Raids]

Peace Sells and SFSGSW are far better now, however.
IMO Peace Sells sounds worse. The bass intro to the title track is just ruined.

[Happy]

no i think menza was gone when he did the remasters,im not sure though
He came back to help.

[Schism666]

He came back to help.

Really?
i thought Dave and Nick hated each other after nick left.

[MAthiAS]

No, because Nick was going to tour, but couldn't physically do it or something.

I think Dave asked Marty to come back as well... :(

[Chu]

I think Dave asked Marty to come back as well... :(
That's could be... :o

[Apocalyptic Raids]

He asked the whole RIP lineup to come back and record then tour...

:upset:

[-The Frank]

hey, im a bit new to megadeath....could anyone reccomend me any good songs?


thanks

[Apocalyptic Raids]

Holy Wars... The Punishment Due
Peace Sells
The Conjuring
Mechanix
Rattlehead
Symphony Of Destruction
Kick The Chair
Tornado of Souls
Hangar 18
In My Darkest Hour
Wake Up Dead
Hook In Mouth
Set The World Afire

[-The Frank]

thanks

[Happy]

No, because Nick was going to tour, but couldn't physically do it or something.

I think Dave asked Marty to come back as well... :(
I think Nick only left because he was having breakdowns and couldn't take it no more.
Marty had tings to do and had moved on.

[Schism666]

I think Nick only left because he was having breakdowns and couldn't take it no more.
Marty had tings to do and had moved on.

Come to think of it didnt Nick have surgery on his knee, and couldn't physical play the songs anymore?

[Sleepy]

The Rust in Peace remaster sounds as good/maybe a little bit better than the original. However, the remaster of Peace Sells got screwed up somehow...it was pretty much ruined.

You can find an original CD on amazon.com though...used in great condition for $5. That's where I'm getting mine.

[DimebagDarrell]

i need to find the original version of cryptic writings i dont want the new one it wont look right against the originals lol yes i know thats very fussy.

[Happy]

Come to think of it didnt Nick have surgery on his knee, and couldn't physical play the songs anymore?
I don't know, i expect it would've been hard for him to play a 2 hour show every night with a bad knee so that could be one of the reasons he couldn't tour.

[MAthiAS]

He asked the whole RIP lineup to come back and record then tour...

:upset:
:upset: :upset:

And Dave pretty much rules out any future possibility of a RIP reformation tour, because of his quarrel with Ellefson. While I think Dave was in the right, its hard for me to see two guys that have been through so much in a band for so long, letting an argument over money end their relationship.

[Happy]

He apologised to Metallica and Slayer (I think Kerry still holds the grudge) over Dime's death so there's a chance he'll apologise to Ellefson and somehow, someway, get the band back together.

/wishful thinking.

[MAthiAS]

For him to apologize to Junior, Mike Portnoy would have to be shot.

Kerry is an even bigger idiot than Dave. Kerry is always in the wrong, Dave's just immature.

[Happy]

Hmm, Shoot Mike Portnoy eh?

[MAthiAS]

That bitch is going down, DT is spent anyway.

[i am the robots]

DT is still good...

[Themadhatter]

Dave's just immature.

Uhh, what? I beg to differ. Dave's been through quite a bit and has changed over the years. I'm pretty sure he's gotten what he's wanted from life and doesn't care about anything else. He's trademarked for his "Take no prisoners, Take no ****" attitude. You can look at it as immaturity, but when you take into concideration of what he's gone through, he's a very mature person. It really depends on which way you look at it. How far he's come over the years, or just snippets of his rudeness! <3 Dave.

[Happy]

I think he meant Eleffson. I think.
Oh ma godderz i gots 4,000 posties.

****, oops! He should have said David though! If so, then I agree. He comes off as a money hungry dickhead from what Mustaine posted about their argument.

137, well 138 now. Without these community threads I'd be nothing.

I meant Mustaine, though Ellefson is immature as well. I'm not saying Dave's actions aren't always justified, but they're not always mature. My main reference is the Rotting Christ and Dissection incidents.

I do admire Dave for how he's handled some things though. He's not always immature, if you understand what I'm saying.

I gotcha. Like the incident in Ireland - not the smartest thing to do, but still! Tell me more about the "the Rotting Christ and Dissection incidents." Completely new to me.

[Happy]

What happened in Ireland?

[MAthiAS]

Short story short, Megadeth was playing some festivals in Europe back in the spring, and Dave forced Rotting Christ and Dissection to leave the bill because they're Satanists.

EDIT: This isn't the Ireland thing....

[Happy]

ah right i remember now.
/Me leaves MX for today :wave:

That really is bull****.

You can't force your beliefs on people and make bands leave because they contradict what you believe.

[MAthiAS]

Exactly. It was just a really overzealous and disrespectful thing to do.

Refresh me on this Ireland thing.

[Mazeppa]

That really is bull****.

Apparently you can. Dave did.

[i am the robots]

That really is bull****.

He didn't force his beliefs on them, but he did discriminate against them, however, it's only natural for someone to not like their enemy [and yes, Christians and Satanists are basically enemies].

[Themadhatter]

Yeah that's kind of lame. But eh, I don't know about immature.

Megadeth was playing a show in Ireland when he raised the Irish flag and said "**** the IRA, Give Ireland back to the Irish" or something to that effect. Dave was forced offstage or something. I'm not real sure really, I saw it on VH1 some time back. It was on the CTE tour if I'm not mistaken.

[MAthiAS]

Not really, if you go by what Satanism really is.

But that's not the point, its a really crappy thing to do at a festival where it should be about the music. What happened to tolerance? Jesus wouldn't kick them off lol.

[Themadhatter]

I have been waiting on my friend to sign on to send me the remaster of Youthanasia (Song). I can't wait anymore. Anyone have it? I will love you for many, many years if you send it to me. AIM - InMyDarkestHourr. Yes there are two R's.

[Father_Jack]

I dont understand why they would remaster youthanasia, its not exactly bad quality or anything.

EDIT: 900 posts, whoo :chug:

Yes really if you know what Satanism is. Most of Satanism [including the name] was designed to mock Christianity.

[Happy]

:lol:

He probably pisses himself at what they say about him.

[MAthiAS]

I'd say paganism is the opposite of Christianity, not Satanism.

[lightningmetal666]

Yes, this is true. I betcha if you went to heaven you'd see a bunch of death, thrash, and black metal albums everywhere and there would be Jesus with giant headphones attached to a giant shelf system and he'd be just rippin' on his air guitar. :evil: :lol: :lol:

After all, we all know he's the son of god and all kids are rebellious.

[Father_Jack]

I didnt see that, i would like some linkage.

[lightningmetal666]

the link is www.mi.edu (http://www.mi.edu/)

As it would turn out he is one of the guest teachers at that college. I've heard rumors that when the metal workshop is going on, he is the one teaching it and you can actually sit in with him. :amaze:

I saw Megadeth at Gigantour on Wednesday. They had a good sounding show, but they have literally no stage presence, and their set-list wasn't much to my appeal. Anthrax destroyed them.

[Themadhatter]

I saw Megadeth at Gigantour on Wednesday. They had a good sounding show, but they have literally no stage presence, and their set-list wasn't much to my appeal. Anthrax destroyed them.

Compared to Anthrax, not many bands have stage pressence. I think Megadeth's stage pressence rules though. The way Dave just stands there in all his awesomeness, it eminated (sp) off him for sure! Maybe it's just like that for me though, I don't know.

[RustedPieces]

I find Megadeth's stage presence is very strong. I don't know what it is, but they seem so strong and comfortable on stage.

[VeedBok]

I find Megadeth's stage presence is very strong. I don't know what it is, but they seem so strong and comfortable on stage.

:amaze: are you serious? I saw them at Gigantour and they had horrible stage presence. They rarley moved and Dave talked 2 times to the crowd. I though they were going to be way better, but I was wrong. Anthrax on the other hand had amazing stage presence. They were always headbanging, pumping up the crowdn running around and having a great time. They blew Megadeth away, even though I though Megadeth would do that to them.

[MegaMustaine]

Their stage presence was great when I saw them at Gigantour. What venue did you go to Veedbok?

[Happy]

Their stage presence is great.

[VeedBok]

I saw them in Calgary, they played a bunch of new shitty songs, which angred me, and they olny played like 5 good old songs.

[Bazarov]

Yeah, when I saw them in SD. They played great, but Dave really mainly just stood around. He only said a few things, nothing to really fire up the crowd that much.

[vashts80]

When I saw Gigantour, during all the instrumental parts they'd move around stage, like MacDonough would move to the other side and headbang, then he's run over to the left and headbang, etc etc...he was headbanging for most of the show, actually. You don't need to jump off your amps and throw your monitors around to get a crowd into a show.

[DimebagDarrell]

Dave doesnt like to talk methinks when i seen megadeth he said you aint come to hear my speak you have come to see and hear megadeth. he only spoke about twice when i seen them too lol

[MAthiAS]

His stage presence was way better at Electric Factory a year ago. Making fun of idiots in the crowd, talking a lot, headbanging way more, etc. And James and Glen barely did anything at Gigantour, at Electric Factory they were headbanging like crazy the whole show.

Dave gave his reasons for not talking much; they don't have much time, so they just want to play music. I understand that completely. But I think festivals suck balls. I mean, an hour and a half just isn't enough for Megadeth, and 30 minutes for Nevermore is a joke.

[Happy]

50 minutes for Megadeth IS NOT ENOUGH :angry:
Stupid crappy Feeder headlining.

[heavy metal kid]

Gigantour:
In SD Dave actually spoke to the crowd.
Besides the pyro effects were cool.

[MAthiAS]

That's because its San Diego.

[heavy metal kid]

That's because its San Diego.

and maybe because only 4 bands where at the show.

[RustedPieces]

Yeah at my show he said that he didn't want to talk much because they might run out of time, and I would have been pissed if they didn't have enough time to play Holy Wars so I'm glad he didn't talk much.

[MAthiAS]

My biggest gripe was that the only song that surprised me was She-Wolf. Everything else was 100% predictable.

[heavy metal kid]

They play almost all the greatest hits album and a few from the system has failed.
Like you said 100% predictable.

[CaptainWaits]

Yeah at my show he said that he didn't want to talk much because they might run out of time, and I would have been pissed if they didn't have enough time to play Holy Wars so I'm glad he didn't talk much.
That's exactly what he said at mine too, but like I said earlier, they still were pretty boring to watch.
