That's is not savage, it's the truth. As a drummer Lars is not only unexceptional he is bad and as a human being he is a waste of space. I used to work for the company that supplied Metallica's lighting and stage sets and IMO Lars is an oxygen thief. James is ok ...as long as Lars isn't in the same room. Back in '89 or '90 I was on tour with Megadeth and Testament as part of the road crew and Dave is a really nice guy if a bit troubled. Good to hear he got over his drug thing! He liked them a bit too much and he wasn't all that choosy as long as he got off his head.

Dave's a total badass! I don't know many people that are that genuine. He is, however a very emotional person so I guess that makes him quite unpredictable, but also very interesting, which is why his interviews are always so divergent. I guess the guys from Metallica never really got him. It's like he puts it: You're young, there's a lot of substance abuse and people collide because of it.. Shit happens. Of course in this interview he's grown emotionally and a lot more put together than in the old days, because for a lot of years he litterally wanted to bury James and Lars. The thing I really admire about him is his endurance. He really is a fighter and a survivor who fought many battles, including one against cancer recently and I guess he had to learn some lessons the hard way along the way because they did not teach him much at home. But it takes a man to be this straightforward and open about your past and the way you've experienced it. Really quite a character! Hope to enjoy his music for many more years; It has been around 25 years thus far so I must be getting quite old as well ;-)

[@expERiMENTik_gaming]

And a year after that he was diagnosed with throat cancer. The man upstairs does not play around. In Dave's words though, it is speculation. But it is eerie how those type of things connect so easily. It is very possible that Dave didn't tell the whole truth about the "hex" he put on the guy for physical damage. That person could well have been for a member of Metallica, which wound up being Cliff Burton. Not only was his leg completely destroyed, but he died in that bus accident. This is the excerpt that describes the unexplainable coincidences and events that occurred that day from his Wikipedia page: In Sweden, on the Damage Inc. tour in support of Master of Puppets, the band members complained that the sleeping cubicles on their tour bus were unsatisfactory and uncomfortable. To decide who received pick of the bunks, Kirk Hammett and Burton drew playing cards.[16] On the evening of September 26, 1986, Burton won the game with an ace of spades, thereby getting the first choice of bunk. Burton turned to Hammett and said "I want your bunk"; Hammett then responded, "Fine, take my bunk, I'll sleep up front, it's probably better up there anyway." Burton was sleeping shortly before 7:00 a.m. on September 27 when, according to the driver, the bus skidded off the road (the E4, 12 miles (19 km) north of Ljungby),[17] and flipped onto the grass in Kronoberg County.[18] Burton was thrown through the window of the bus, which fell on top of him and killed him. The bus driver said that the crash was caused by the bus hitting a patch of black ice on the road, but James Hetfield later stated that he first believed the bus flipped because the driver was drunk. Hetfield also stated that he walked long distances down the road looking for black ice and found none. When local freelance photographer Lennart Wennberg (who attended the crash scene the following morning) was asked in a later interview about the likelihood that black ice caused the accident, he said it was "out of the question" because the road was dry and the temperature around 2 °C (36 °F), above the freezing point of 0 °C (32 °F). This was confirmed by police who - like Hetfield - also found no ice on the road. Ljungby detective Arne Pettersson was reported in a local newspaper to have said the tracks at the accident site were exactly like ones seen when drivers fall asleep at the wheel. However, the driver stated under oath that he had slept during the day and was fully rested; his testimony was confirmed by the driver of a second tour bus that was carrying the band's crew and equipment.[17] The driver was determined not at fault for the accident and no charges were brought against him.[19]

Dave is one of the few people who can call himself a legend and nobody really disagrees with him. I’m reading his book now and when I read the part about how Metallica fired him and how they went about it, I could feel the despair reading his words. But then he went and pulled himself up out of that hole and created one of the greatest bands in metal. Not many people have that type of endurance and magic. He found a pamphlet on the bus ride home that stated “The arsenal of megadeath can’t be rid no matter what the peace treaties come to”. If that wasn’t a sign from the universe then I don’t know what would be.

I feel identified with him, I can understand that feeling of being lonely, when I was in school my mom had to work so I were almost everyday lonely after school, I remember struggling with the key sometimes, I had to make my own snack and my mom was ausent most of the time in my childhood, my stepfather were working too so I had to wait for them, there were nights when I stayed home alone with my stepfather taking care of me while my mom was working because she was the one that paid for all of my school stuff, clothes and he (who was way older than her) helped her with home and food so she was working to taking care of me and her life But in my case I woundnt say I had a bad childhood, it was normal, I played with dolls to entretain myself and I was happy like that too I grow up as an only child feeling lonely most of the time, I still feel lonely sometimes but I know im not the only one feeling that way, I dont let that let me down cause its just life at the end

You know whats cool, if you learn piano and get a general feel of the notes and scales and if you can read music you can pretty much learn any instrument

[@Sean-cr7xk]

Can confirm

[@natoalvarez5762]

Fun fact I started in piano 🎹. Than ended up picking up a guitar the notes are very very similar

[@hmpz36911]

@@natoalvarez5762 Similar? They're exactly the same....

[@Akirasloss]

This might be my favorite interview ever

[@JohnGaray]

What a great interview. Dave is on my list of artists I dont want anything to happen to them.

[@elliotmeek3375]

I love the fact Dave is completely uncensored

[@randyhanner3188]

Dave your absolutely a legend, the first time I seen Megadeth they were the opening band for Alice Cooper & I left the show with a Megadeth shirt & it never ended from there

[@davidcisiana1387]

I never saw Dave looking so happy. It is cool to see him like that.

[@unshakensalsa6220]

Pretty sure he said he was on drugs here. This point in his career was one of his lowest. After all, nobody talks about a divorce and moving from your kids that happily unless you're on something to make you not think about it.

[@wickster2121]

I kind of have a crush on Dave mustaine.

[@sebastianalvarado7867]

I really appreciate how much class this guy has as apposed to other celebrities out there, such an intellect

[@H.E.M.]

I love he how calls Lars out 10:50

[@Ogryzek_IRL]

I'm laughing so hard at 3AM

[@Gramsgirl-ie8fb]

I could literally listen to this guy talk for hours.

[@annetteslife]

On top of ol' teacher! 😂😂😂

[@metaldreams3595]

Ok but when he said Im a legend it was tongue in cheek....comedic exaggeration. Daves so cool. Love the guy.

[@justinkassinger8238]

He aged so quickly in the 20 tens.

[@zDialecticChaos]

Without a doubt a legend. Talk about a guy that has incredible song writing skill and gave birth to the thrash metal genre.

[@jeremycubs8331]

Damn even Dave's voice sounded like 1992 here.

[@oakenshanks]

omg, this is the greatest interview ive ever seen with dave... love it...

[@contes96]

I love and respect Dave and have for years. Angry Dave is my spirit animal

[@TheMryoh]

I love the way you are Mr Mustaine, thank you, I still remember the riffs of Holy wars I learnt when I was teenager, the best riffs in heavy metal history

[@poolpartyjacob]

love how he went from bein super energetic and happy explaining his dental work, to being a legend, to dissing lars, to basically child abuse and satanism. Thanks Dave, very cool.

[@obediahabisua2962]

Every time I hear Dave being interviewed the more I like the guy. Just straightforward about everything, no bullshit no filler just telling it how it is. Fucking love this guy

[@Afurthyclays]

Dave’s giggles are infectious! 😂

[@alegnalowe3679]

I absolutely adore Dave.He is a hero to me because he is honest and a surviver.I as always wish him the best of everything life has to offer.thank you metalica for giving us a fantastic guy!

[@tevetorbes456]

This is a great interview. Dave is right on with his talking to God daily. Christianity is a relation with God through a Jesus. It’s not a religion thing. None of us are worthy. To religious groups the church is often a building. In the the Bible the church is the people because there was no building. A relationship with Jesus is what it is all about.

[@mackenzielamb6513]

"Hate destroys the hater..don't condemn the sinner, condemn the sin." One of the most honest statements to be said. I know this.

[@laurelinne8349]

Plus lucide que ce que j'aurais pensé... Notamment au sujet des drogues, son commentaire dessus était très intéressant

[@pierredeslandes9896]

Laure LINNÉ 17 cures de désintoxication, le type sait de quoi il parle.et il en a fait quelques unes depuis l interview (2008).

[@mmmuscraft5558]

regard la video dans la quelle il tue Moon Zappa dans Jeopardy...!

[@ahnaftahmid872]

Most honest man in the music industry

[@Curios_Caco]

It’s tragic how he started to look so olds after the diagnosis

[@siddcandy]

As a kid I admired Mustaine. I still think he's an outrageously talented artist. Speaks his mind freely, does stupid things, gets away with them, ends up wiser than before. Okay, so I apparently still admire him. Well..

[@DIABLOinWEHRMACHT]

MegaDave is a pioneer and one of the Greatest Metal Shredder OF ALL TIME🍺🥃👍

[@alegnalowe3679]

Long live Dave long live megadeth.

[@eli.in.chains]

im so glad i clicked on this video because this is the best dave interview ive ever seen

[@wastelander6656]

0:12 “life?? What do you mean life?? I ain’t got a life!!”

[@cherylrichardson9120]

I love hearing anything Dave has to say 💖

[@mikemoavero3518]

"Lars is not a great drummer", man I agree with that statement. I've had many of arguments with people about that one.

[@pancakesgo7995]

He's not the most proficient drummer, but I doubt Lars really cares when he's busy snorting blow off a supermodel's ass on his yacht somewhere.

[@MetalMaiden39]

Thanks for uploading this. Dave always gives great interviews. He looks so happy here.
