[@PhantomDeth]

Eye of the beholder.. I took it as just a chat and not a grilling on the fine details. I get that people want to see Dave sit down with a real Megadeth nerd and get into the weeds with stuff. Because Daves an approachable guy he's capable of having a conversation with anyone. The thing is though.. Is super duper fans don't tend to have successful podcasts or radio shows or articles in which to appear. There's a disclaimer with an interview.. Don't try to get Dave to shit talk people or bands.. Don't ask those questions and you'll do fine. As for the two things you mentioned... We know the answers for these.. Jeff was fired.. Jeff remained bitter about it for years. Jeff got sent over the edge when Dave said that Jeff was 'sick' when they went to tour Australia.. Jeff's claim is that he has never done drugs and was 'straight edge' and that didn't appreciate being used as the scapegoat for the cancelling of that tour. And blamed Dave for cancelling it because he was 'sick'.. Sick is someone whose not got their drugs to make them 'well' again. Jeff is super bitter and was passive aggressive toward Dave long before Dave spilled the beans on Jeff's willingness to engage in the wellness centers each night. Nick was asked to return to the band on several occasions. When the band came back in 04.. Nick was there. However according to Dave, Nick took issue with his Drum tech and was horrible to them in front of Dave.. Dave hated his behaviour so much that he dropped Nick.. Nick remained close with Dave after this and Dave once again asked him to return to the band in 2015.. Nick accepted and they worked on Dystopia.. Some of the demos of which... Are out there. Babylonian Ships I believe was the title used for what became Death From Within. Dave wanted it to happen, but Jr convinced Dave that Nick didn't have the chops to do Megadeth scale touring anymore.. Dave reluctantly agreed and had the difficult task of letting Nick go when he didn't really want to. Nick did take it personally he was hurt and he blamed Dave not Jr.. Because Dave is the one to call the shots at the end of the day. He did hold his tongue on it for a little while but in the last year or so of his life he did start having pops at Dave.. Cryptic ones but what was clear is he felt hurt by this dismissal.. Nick accepted the dismissals of 98 and 04 because he understood he was the reason those happened. He couldn't accept the 2015 one because he felt capable he wanted to do it and was publicly with his KZbin posts showing he still had it on all the songs. But what we don't see is what Jr saw.. Well... Tell a lie.. We do see it now.. In some of the more recent uploads of his playthoughs of Megadeth songs he did before he died. Nick is clearly exhausted and fatigued with the intense playing.. 1 pass of Holy Wars and he needs to go outside.. It's a horrible thing.. But age can bring with it some painful moments and accepting you can't go as fast or as hard as you used to is one of them.. Jr was clearly more in tune with this than Dave or even Nick was... He spotted this.. Dave probably did but thought he's just rusty and will ease back into it Daves a hard nut like that he himself would push though to get to the goal and wants that for everyone.. He believes everyone is capable of this. But Jr was right.. Nick was no at the level he needed to be to perform as many shows as Megadeth does. He wasn't up to the task of 90 minute sets. It was to much for him. Jr was so right about Nicks state that Nick passed away due to heart disease/attack. During Dystopias touring... If Nick was on the road.. Nick would have died whilst in Megadeth... On the road. Dave has said.. If that had happened he might have ended the band that day. Dave is still upset that Nick died unhappy with him.. He loved Nick he didn't want to hurt him. But Nicks family have been also not good after Nicks passing either.. Dave wanted to do something for the family and they rejected it.. They like Nick blame Dave for not having in back in Megadeth.. When it wasn't Dave that noticed or pushed for it. But Jr.. They asked Jr to be part of Nicks documentary on his life.. So it's all a little uhh confusing but time will heal. So Dave has left it well alone and kept it private. If Megadeth gets inducted into the hall of fame.. He wants Nicks family to be there. He wants Jeff to be there. He has tried to mend any broken bridges but some aren't ready for it or think being bitter forever over something in the pass isn't just a pain you carry with you willingly.. Dave knows all about carrying around past luggage.. He gave up being angry about that stuff decades ago.. Mild irritation now depending on the context.. Like oh I don't know.. Talking about Metallicas One music video for like 2 minutes when you have an hour with Dave Mustaine 😂 nah I joke. Annoyed Dave is funniest Dave.

[@abfkwbdkdmggfilw-uv5bn]

@@PhantomDeth Thanks for the info on Nick I was really curious about that. A lot of people paint as Dave being a complete ass in that situation and I was hoping it wasn't true

[@BryanPatterson-d3o]

Dave’s like Steve-o is way better at stunts than interviewing/podcasts haha maybe Steve-o was nervous 😬 Dave mustaine is a pretty intense person lol

[@michaelmaes3895]

Well, at least we know we will be getting another episode with no guest. And steve-o talks about himself and the things he's got to change.

[@stephenc2527]

I love the consistency of new material Dave and team put out. Blessed that most metal acts haven't become a greatest hits tour and they still get some new stuff in their shows.

[@curttrego]

This reminds me of those Chris Farley interviews from snl. Remember that time you wrote "in my darkest hour" on the day cliff Burton died? That was cool!

[@woody8577]

So, after he died, you wrote it? Or was it during?

[@chrisreid7758]

Dave is a tough interview. I wouldn’t beat up Steve O too badly on this one. I love them both.

[@funkster007]

Steve-O means well, but his goofy persona doesn't mesh well will Dave's dead pan manner. This almost resembles the Farley/ McCartney SNL skit. LOL

[@Bogeyman19DidNotScareMyAss]

You’ve gotta be kidding. Maybe Dave is a tough interview but Steve O had nothing new or interesting to ask. No excuse. I knew it would be bad but holy shit this is unforgivable.

[@robnhood1416]

Dave is a moody person, you could tell in some interviews, he's very cheerfull (Like recent one with Avenged bassist) and in other interviews he's totally grumpy.

[@scottashe984]

No he isn't. Just don't ask him dumb about he answers everyday like "how's the tour going" or "didn't you play in Metallica"?

[@brianmeen2158]

Love it. Straight from a fans perspective. Even though Dave has heard it a million times. He was respectful

[@Owenator26]

32:00 Dave: "That was the first guitar I ever did a power chord on was that Gibson gold top Les Paul"..........(awkward silence & unimpressed facial expressions)Lol. My god there's alot of awkward pauses actually. Also the cuts from Steve-O asking weird questions and being awkward to Scott blankly staring is hilarious lol

Dude your straight killing it with your guests, and interviews, I can’t help but click on every episode , kick ass Dave Mustaine, and Steveo!

Hey Steve, big fan here. Just wanted to let you know Jack Black loves Dio. He's one of his favs and even became friends, and Dio had a rad singing part on Kickapoo from Tenacious D's movie Pick Of Destiny!

[@Malevolence460]

I’m sure Dio was aware of the lyrics from the Dio song, but they still kinda make me feel sad for him

[@jmill]

@Malevolence460 He wasn't just aware. Him and Jack Black were friends. Actually, one of Jack's favorites. Like I said, he has a part on Tenacious D's movie Pick Of Destiny. He thought it was funny/ fun. Dio rules!

[@OpheliaDarkling]

why? how? a guitar hero? ok. Everything else? Not so much.

[@PhantomDeth]

​@OpheliaDarkling Dave is an inspiration to everyone that's seen and lived the bottom and climbs to the top with determination and will to never give up and never accept defeat. World domination no less. 4 decades of this at the highest level. Anyone who can't understand that or respect what he's achieved is a tool.

[@beyondthereach9439]

Dave is a work horse who laughs at adversity. He has always been true to himself and big on loyalty.

I know people really dig Rust in Peace for the cool solos and all, but for real Peace Sells is an absolute masterpiece. The attitude and tone of the album unmatched. Even when they tried to make it better with the remasters it didn't work as well. Just captured some lightening there.

Mustaine has always been one of my favorite guitarists. Damn... I will never be that good on guitar!

Usually like Steve Os interview style but i think we need to get Dave back on and have some more intereting questions! Guys had a hell of a career

When Dave mentioned "Musique Plus," it made me smile. You can really see the strong connection he has with Montreal. From all the Megadeth fans in Quebec, we love you, Dave! ❤

Agreed, but I think Steve was nervous.
