Where you seeing them? Wherever it is it'll ****ing hurt they play a 2 hour set of full up your *** metal.

Saw them last night... my ears are still ringing, but what did I expect?

In a word: [B]Incredible[/B]

Diamond Head were also excellent. I hadn't heard any of their stuff outside of the Metallica covers, but I fully intend to check out some of their CDs now

Having finally seen him in real life, I've decided that Some Kind of Monster really shows Dave in a poor light... he's an awesome guy.


Just a pity this is their last tour :(

ARGH! the system has failed won't work on my computer :angry:

I ripped it to mine with no difficulties.

d[I][U][/U][/I]amn i'll have to try again then

thanks

Maybe. Dave has said he'd like to do more touring in the US, so its up in the air right now. I heard him talk about a tour with Anthrax, Testament, and Exodus. That would be just... incredible.

Last night I had a dream that I met Dave. He was walking down the street and I was in the car with my parents and I was like "Holy sh[b][i][/b][/i]it pull over its Dave Mustaine!" so we stop and he's like, "Hey can you guys give me a ride?" and I'm like "Well we're going to the airport..." and he's like "Okay cool whatever." And then we just talked about the tour and music and it was just an awesome and surprisingly realistic dream. Then at the airport he cut his hair, which I wasn't too happy about, and then I woke up.

thats an odd dream, but it beats one that one of my friends had.

Yeah, one time I dreamt that I won that contest where you send a song in to Dave and he picks the ones he likes and you win a Mustaine signature V, but he delivered it personally and stuck around and we jammed for like a day.

who was that???

Mmm...in the Philly bootleg that I have, Shawn's drumkit is up on a cage-type thing...anybody know if there's any specific reason for that? I know that the drums are usually raised a bit off the stage, but the cage looks like it's a good 3 feet off the stage.

Hey, I was at that show. I don't think there's a real reason for it, other than it looks freaking cool.

I need your guys help,im faily new to megadeth i already have Rust in Peace and Peace sells but who's buying ? i wanna get a new one but dont know which one to get

****ING ROCK!

So I saw Megadeth two days ago... What can I say, it was awesome!

First, Diamond Head took the stage, with some new (and pretty uninteresting) guy singing. However, hearing "The Prince" and "Am I Evil" plyed live is defenitely a ****ing event to remember. They played for about and hour (maybe a little less), and they were pretty good overall. Not great, but def. better than most (their lead guitarist looked like he was 200 ****ing years old, but that guy good really ****ing play. I met up with him after the show and briefly talked about playing and techniques n' stuff)

Then, after a short break, some roadies came onstage (including quite possibly the fattest man I've ever seen :D) to unwrap the amps and gear, including one of the prettiest, coolest, shiniest drum cages ever built.


And then... Megadeth came onstage! Cheers and roars around the house, and then they kicked in with "Blackmail The Universe", which at the end, as a [I]very[/I] pleasent surprise, faded into my favorite Megadeth tune of all time, "Set The World Afire". \m/ :)

About five songs into the set, Dave steps up to the mic, and goes: Three years ago, a doctor said I would never play again. Then he raises his leftie into the air and goes "Whaddya think?!" (More roars and cheers from the crowd, of course :))

They played a pretty **** good set, with only two crap songs, and they even managed to get those to sound ****ing awesome.



Anyways, some highlights:

They start to play "Sweating Bullets", and Dave goes (to the crowd): Sing it! And after about two lines, it all turns into one giant mumbling, cuz nobody knows the lyrics (neither did I, I've always hated that song). And it all dies, and Dave goes: .... Man, that sucks! [i]I'll[/i] do it... It was ****ing hilarious :D

James' (Bass player) covering Paganini's 24th (I think) and Bach in his bass solo (which was really cool)

Dave dedicating "Of Mice And Men" to Dimebag, a really beautiful gesture, and also the one time during the night when the crowd chanted something other then "MEGA-DETH" (IE, they chanted DIME-BAG instead :D )

Actually hearing Holy Wars live was also pretty ****ing cool. To bad Shawn ****ed up the solo. :angry: He's a good guitars, just really not all that innovative on his own.

They had these smaller speakers along the edge of the stage. And Dave had taped his setlist to the top of one. Then, in the midde of a song, the fat roadie comes out and turns them over (thy were sitting up straight, and heturned them over on their broad side so that the crowd could see more) SO during the next song, you saw this skinny roadie guy running out onstage, quickly taping aanother list on the floor next to Dave, and then very quickly runnig backstage again

It was also very cool when Diamond Head came up onstage in the middle of the show and started to sing along with 'Deth. Of course, nowhere near the ****ing noise that came out when the entire ****ing room was singing along/doing some beer-induced chanting during the chorus to "Peace Sells" :D

In the end, the show was a ****ing blast, and except for the low volume on Dave's mic, the band sounded and played great. The only sad thing was that when the show was over, Dave came back onstage and thanked everybody for coming, and then proceeded to let us know that this is the last Megadeth tour. Kinda sux, but oh well, at least I got a cool shirt with me home :D

Sounds like a hell of time. Wish I had gotten to see them.

In Philly no one even chanted Megadeth, it was just DAVE-DAVE-DAVE-DAVE.

Sounds like a killer show though.

yup, same with when i went to the san francisco show.

Oh yeah I remember Dave pwned some guy in the audience. It went something like this, and by the way what the guy said I'm just inferring based on Dave's responses.

Dave: Thanks for giving me the finger there man.
Guy: I'm from St. Louis.
Dave: What? I don't care where you're from. Why are you giving me the finger?
Guy: You don't like St. Louis?
Dave: St. Louis? I don't have anything against the city, except you.

Yeah, something similar happened in Copenhagen. Dave started bitching with this guy from the audience, who was talking when Dave was doin' one of his (surprisingly few) speeches :)
Since the guy was obviously a fan, it all ended with Dave goin: I love you, man, but shut the **** up! :lol:

i got tickets to see them in manchester fro my fiances 18th. They are one of his fave bands. In the end he didnt wanna go. WTF.

Has anyone read the 'Total Rock' interveiw with Dave?

And i wish they'll hurry up and announce the Aussie dates too.

I haven't read it. Link/post it?

[QUOTE=munky_magik]I haven't read it. Link/post it?[/QUOTE]


I actually bought the mag but i'll type it up tommorrow because it's like
12:10 am

If you can be bothered it will be much appreciated :)

[QUOTE=munky_magik]If you can be bothered it will be much appreciated :)[/QUOTE]

No worries i'll put it up tommorrow, it's like 6 pages mind.

That is way beyond the call of duty :eek:

6 pages is fine by me.
And if he wants to type it up/[B]Scan it[/B] then it is also fine with me :)

I could scan it but aren't IMG tags turned off?
I'll type it up but it'll probably take me a bloody good hour.

Scan it and upload the results to [url]Http://www.photobucket.com[/url]

ok, so i dont have a genuine version of it, but IMO youthanasia is a great album. my favourite songs are train of consequences, the killing road and victory. im thinking of getting rust in peace next, a good choice?

Rust in Peace is considered by many, including myself, to be their best. If you like Youthanasia, you might be better off getting Countdown to Extinction next though, still a great album. CTE is more in the same vein as Youth, whereas RiP is quite a bit different, as in, its way thrashier.

ah ok, i quite like thrash stuff, of course i could always buy both :thumb:

also sweating bullets kicks a[U][I][/U][/I]ss

Yeah, Countdown is like a mix of their thrash sound and their Youth-and-later sound. If you like thrash though, you'll love Rust in Peace.

[QUOTE=sack-man]im thinking of getting rust in peace next, a good choice?[/QUOTE]

i still havnt got around to buying that :angry:
