converge241 0 Report post Posted March 1, 2004 and they all say "NO" so hes assembled a new band including original guitarist Pollard (sp?) read it in revolver mag otherwise would have posted the link..there was a great quote by friedman where he said something to the effect of "he can get any guitarist to play Peace sells" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Agent of Oblivion Report post Posted March 1, 2004 Good, now he can form the band of Daves. He's always got Ellefson on board, pretty much. Now he needs to call up Lombardo on drums. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Agent of Oblivion Report post Posted March 1, 2004 Whaaaaat? Even his best Dave said no? Denied. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Red Baron 0 Report post Posted March 1, 2004 Actually is Ellfson that doesn't want to join Megadeth and is the reason why Menza and Friedman not joining as well. Just get Mustaine, Poland, Newsted, Lombardo...now thats a solid line-up Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Agent of Oblivion Report post Posted March 1, 2004 If you had Poland in your band, you'd have to play at some pretty big venues. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Red Baron 0 Report post Posted March 1, 2004 What I find funny is that Friedman says anyone can play Peace Sells, and the ironic thing is that Poland is comin back, and he played on Peace Sells Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steviekick 0 Report post Posted March 1, 2004 Newsted joining Megadeth would rock. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mister foozel 0 Report post Posted March 1, 2004 so i guess mustaines arm has healed up then listening to holywars gets me pumped to hear more from these guys Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Corey_Lazarus 0 Report post Posted March 1, 2004 Nah, I think Newsted should stick with Ozzy and Voivod. Maybe hold a contest to see who should replace Ellefson? Would probably go over a hell of a lot better than Limp Bizkit's "FIND A NEW GUITARIST!" thing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Matt Young 0 Report post Posted March 2, 2004 Sadly, Newsted has already left Ozzy and broken up the dream team of himself and Zakk Wylde. It would be pretty fucking awesome if he joined Megadeth, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Choken One Report post Posted March 3, 2004 it would poetic justice...but people would term them the Metallica Cast Offs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Red Baron 0 Report post Posted March 3, 2004 but yet, better than Metallica. do I need to explain why Dave Mustaine the second in command of Metal gods next to Lemmy Kilmister Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Metal Maniac 0 Report post Posted March 3, 2004 do I need to explain why Dave Mustaine the second in command of Metal gods next to Lemmy Kilmister Yes. I dunno, I just never dug Megadeth, most especially Mustaine. I mean, there's a REASON that Hetfield ended up singing for Metallica, even though he didn't really want to.

I dunno, I just never dug Megadeth, most especially Mustaine. I mean, there's a REASON that Hetfield ended up singing for Metallica, even though he didn't really want to. James didn't want to sing, he just wanted to play guitar. He knew that the band had tons of potential in going anywhere, and really pressured John Bosh of Armored Saint at the time to do the vocals for Metallica, and becoming a 5-piece.

The Metal Maniac 0 Report post Posted March 3, 2004 Yeah, I know. Your point? Because I was simply making a thinly-veiled statement that Mustaine has a really annoying voice, and thus, shouldn't be signing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Red Baron 0 Report post Posted March 3, 2004 Mustaine voice is no Bruce Dickinson thats a fact. His guitar playing abilities, his song writing, and him saying what he ever wants who he critizes, etc makes him that damn good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
converge241 0 Report post Posted March 3, 2004 i love megadeth but yes i can admit mustaine is kind of a dick and not a great singer but you can feel his passion for the music it becomes tangible sometimes thats better than a great guy or great "technical" player/singer id love for him to get newstead or some other people from the old scene like an all star thrash band and just go do a club tour and just give a great big metal FU every night Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
