For all you Gar Samuelson fans - I was fortunate enough to write a couple of promotional pieces (band bio, etc.) on his post-Megadeth project Fatal Opera, which involved spending a day hanging out at his house and watching the band rehearse. This was circa early 1992. He was reasonably healthy, said he had given up hard drugs and the only substance I saw him use at the time was weed. He still had monster chops. I deliberately refrained from asking about his time in Megadeth, apart from a couple of questions aimed at establishing his importance to the development of thrash metal - in the band bio I stated (with his blessing) that he taught Megadeth to swing rhythmically and that he had convinced Mustaine that focusing his lyrics on social and political commentary was the way to go. The two things I want to emphasize here are that in my interactions with him… 1. Gar was down-to-earth and easy-going, and 2. He was very responsible and professional, returning my phone calls, providing feedback on drafts of the stuff I wrote, and paying me promptly as per our agreement. That Gar was one of the most talented and creative drummers to ever play heavy rock should go without saying. I can only think of a handful of musicians I’d be more proud to have worked for, brief as our association was. Rest In Power, big guy - you were a true master of your craft.

I missed out on seeing Gar and Chris live, too. I started listening to Megadeth in ‘86 and immediately thought the whole group was freakin’ amazing, but didn’t see Megadeth live until 1990. Maybe one day Dave Mustaine will see fit to release an official live album from the Poland/Samuelson era. I hope so.

" in the band bio I stated (with his blessing) that he taught Megadeth to swing rhythmically and that he had convinced Mustaine that focusing his lyrics on social and political commentary was the way to go." THIS... I dont think enough people mention this, I understood this without even reading this comment, I knew that Gar was the best musician when he came into Megadeth and taught the band what to do, and he had the biggest contribution out of ANY MEGADETH MEMBER IN HISTORY

You left out Dijon Caruthers! Son of actor Ben Caruthers, brother of Untouchables guitarist Caine Caruthers, & inspiration for the song "Good Mourning/Black Friday." HE was Megadeth's original drummer, & an amazing human being. He & I were close friends through most of the 90s, into the 2000s. Hopefully, he's still alive & that's why you didn't mention him! He DID battle cancer, but won! Hope he's still out there somewhere & doing well! ❤️✌🏼

I dont know what really happened to Nick's life, but you'd think a guy as good as him would have been in another major band after being fired from Megadeth... but somehow he wasnt in anything notable since then. The only time people heard another news about him was when he's almost rejoined in 2004 and in 2014. Many people forgot he actually drummed on all Marty's 90s solo albums.

I think drug addiction is the biggest problem here. Sure, Nick's death was attributed to the heart attack, but after how many years of doing meth? Still though, going back to the music, my favorite drummer is Nick. "Is," because "Rust In Peace" is absolutely number one record I listen to frequently. Peace, folks. Most of all, stay away from drugs.
