Mustaine Covers Metallica, Pays Respects

0:00On May 2nd, Dave Mustaine just shut down any talk of a feud with Metallica for good. He says he buried that beef years ago. Megadeff covered their classic Ride the Lightning on the Farewell Tour. Speeding it up, adding frantic energy, a spiced-up solo, and killer drum. Fills from Dirk for Burn, they debuted at Live, April 26th and 27th at Movastar Arena in Bogota, Colombia. He wants to nail it perfectly before more shows, maybe even in South America, so it owns the original and goes viral right. This is Mustaine paying respects as a founding member he co-wrote the track with James Headfield, Lars Ulrich, and Cliff Burton. It's closing the circle on his less than two years in the band, from 1981 to 1983, including other tunes like The Call of. Coutulu, and four from Killamall. He remembers the first time James shredded guitar at the whiskey in West Hollywood, calling him an exceptional player.

1:00No induction for Mustaine in the rock and roll hall of fame in 2009, but Lars Ulrich showed respect for his 11 months and later. Success. Bottom line, no strategy here. Just pure respect for the guys, and a hell of a song that never got fully produced back then. Mustaine's moving forward owning his legacy. That wraps music news today brought to you with AI.
