Rust in Peace, Nick Menza. Dead at 51, that message struck me hard.
Also, this is one of the most requested songs on this channel, now I finally did it.
This one goes out to you, Nick!

Never stop doing this, don't do other things. This is what you're supposed to do. Guitar is for you

[@georgesimmons555]

Guitar is for everyone who puts the effort in :)

[@frostgc]

Not everyone who plays basketball should consider the NBA as a career option though.

[@mattnewman6049]

I agree and I am playing 33 years. You were born to do this. Dont get a big head though.

tbh I think that title goes to Tornado Of Souls but this one is a close second

[@RedElephantStampede]

Outstanding! It's always blown me away how Dave could play AND sing this at the same time.

[@darpanaswal9291]

I can do it too although very broken at places but comeon if i can do it even a little thats DAVE FUCKING MUSTAINE!

[@derekobs9688]

Black friday is way more difficult to do together than this song

[@nicknunez5896]

Straight up I have always thought that yea he did it while young and on coke but no way he can pull that off now, I saw them in concert 3 years ago and he killed it, he still doesn't have the best voice in the world, but the fact that he can even do what he does is face melting, True metal God for sure

[@Canadian_Metalhead]

Damn dude... My band is covering this and I have to say I'm really impressed with how tight and accurate you were.

[@ristridi]

Thank you! Really appreciate it!

[@neadorel6910]

I know I'm late BUT HOLY SHIT THE SOLOS ARE SO CLEAN. Very nice man, I really hope you still play like this if not even better

[@TheAskald]

You know, I've seen a ton shit of talented and hard-working guitarists. Like, a ton shit. But in term of gesture economy, fluidity and ease, you're one of the best, i'm just speechless.

[@ristridi]

thanks dude!

[@metallionnz2188]

TheAskald I totally second this! I'm speechless too and playing it again. Fucking great work! Nailed it 100%

[@benoitleonard1981]

The fact that Dave sing while playing this is incredible😲

[@1SmokingLizard]

3:52; dat rake harmonic! If this isn't a perfect cover execution...then I don't know what is. Certainly the best cover yet with nearly every note in its respective place. Bravo!

[@Mirko-pi1jl]

Sei ita?

[@azure2635]

Never heard a closer tone

[@Nintendann64]

💯💯💯

[@Rikkii2]

I personally thought it was a bit too treble-y, theres a high pitched ringing almost like a harmonic when he chugs the E. It's still very close though!

[@drekbowser6307]

Hell yeah man hitting that lick at 2:30 is difficult as hell much props to you my man

[@sclerenasya2369]

Excellent cover man, you nailed it RIP Nick

Nice hair, dude, many metalheads dream of a mane like yours!
