Re: Live - Q&A with Dave Mustaine 4/13/10 - ASK QUESTIONS HERE
Hey Dave, huge fan here, in fact it was chasing your tone on "Rude Awakening" in my teens that led me to Seymour Duncan in the first place. So first off, thanks for doing this, and welcome.
-What Megadeth song and/or solo do you find most challenging to play?
-What is your hands-down single favorite guitar you've ever played and/or owned?
-This isn't so much a question, but one of my joke bands re-writes lyrics to established songs and records them for our friends. Usually they turn out offensive, but the general goal is humor. There are a few that we've written to be homages to musicians, and you just happen to be unlucky enough to get that treatment. haha. Hopefully you take this for its intended silliness and get a laugh rather than being offended or creeped out by it...
(sung to Sabbath's "Snowblind," so where Ozzy says Cocaine! it'd be Mustaine!. I'd have liked to do a Megadeth song, but there aren't any that rhyme with your name. haha)
without further ado...
I tell the tale of metal beast
His rage began in '83
Kicked out of a certain band
Was this angry drunken man
(Mustaine)
To the Greyhound he was lead
Riffs were running through his head
Playing fast and technical
He's the one that killed them all
(Mustaine)
He ruled the world of thrash and speed
His finest hour, Rust in Peace
Came back to life when he OD'd
Was raised by rabid wolverines
For drugs and booze his gear was pawned
But still the man, he carried on
He toured for years with brutal shows
The world got their needed hero
(Mustaine)
World domination he is pursuing
He never hits a note that is wrong
Now he is no longer a user
He writes the ****ing heaviest songs
Playing every night for hours
With his super shredding powers
You tell me that its nearly done
When will that new album come?
...like I said, very silly. But a tribute nonetheless.
Thanks again!
