lambgoat did this thing where they let anyone ask Greg a question. Tons of the questions have to do with Gigantour and Megadeth and Mustaine in general..check it out if you want...this is one of the better questions and an even more funny/insane answer




junk: What's the most insane thing you saw Mustaine do during the Gigantour?

This story is insane but not in the way you would expect. One day we were all in the catering area of this club, fuck what was it, the one in Milwaukee, Eagles Ballroom? I think that's it. Well in the catering room there were all these collages on the walls with pictures of musicians on them. Right in the center of one there was a big picture of glory days James Hetfield. Like 1987 Hetfield with the white ESP explorer, roaring like a lion. Mustaine walks in and starts looking at all the collages, gets to that one, and just stares at the Hetfield picture for like 3 minutes. We're all like holy shit look look he's gonna have a fucking freak out or a break down or something. Then he walks over to an open window, leans on the windowsill, and just stares out the window for 15-20 minutes. It was pretty intense. Just the shit that must have been going through his head. He was obviously affected. It was crazy just seeing 25 years of metal history colliding in that dude's head.

i can't believe how insanely crazy that is. what a lunatic.

Yeah, man. My thought exactly.

I don't know what he was thinking...i don't think i would have even shared that to be honest. although, dave obviously didn't care who was around so i guess it's fair game.

when it comes to the whole Mustaine, Metallica, etc. history AND present for that matter....those guys went through what they went through and have dealt and continue to deal with it. nobody's perfect. it's pretty easy to have strong negative feelings, especially towards Metallica but I just don't. As big a fan I still am of the old records, I only have a lack of interest now.
