Aunt stands up gives thumbs up. Security dragged stage diver outta there. Cause the way the stage and where we was at was pretty far. Me and Aunt and others was like he's gotta be on crack.

      That's awesome! i had something similar happen at a show at the filmore in Denver a while back. i was super sick with a flu, but decided to take tons of medicine and go anyway. i think it was the last Gigantour... tour. still wasn't feeling great by the time Megadeth came on and decided to have a couple beers to numb up a little more as i never miss a Megadeth pit. which worked... for a while. was in the pit during Holy Wars when my stomach (liver) started giving me massive sharp pains. i doubled over and started holding my side and limping away pitifully and i saw him staring at me with a really concerned look on his face. i think he saw me crumple even though no one touched me. i had to give him a thumbs up and smile to kinda say "It's okay, i'm just a dumbass". but i've never seen anyone from a stage be so genuinely concerned about random person in the crowd. especially while playing, singing and putting on one hell of a performance! that's insane when you think about it. how much he had going through his mind, the fact that he even noticed is just above. i have no doubt he would've directed security towards me, even stopping the finale song to do so if it was necessary.

      Good man, well done Dave. Great bands care about their audience and are in the best seat in the house to see what's going on in front of the stage.
      I once saw Craig Adams, bassist of The Mission stop a show in Bristol, England, because security were unnecessarily heavy, laying in to some long term fans who were bouncing around in the mosh pit in front of the stage. A bit boisterous yeah, but pretty standard at any Mission gig in the UK and nothing you'd not see at any metal gig.
      Craig told the security guy straight up that if he saw him "touch another of our fans, I'll come down there myself and beat the shit out of you myself". F*cking epic, good man. Oddly enough, security got on with doing their jobs properly after that, when they realised it wasn't an Arianna Grande gig.

I'd say on Youthanasia, Cryptic Writings and Risk, Dave DID try to fit into a new trend of more "mainstream metal", then when Marty left the band and maybe when Dave realized he could never top Metallica in this "mainstream metal" area, he thought "ah, the hell with it, let it go".

      What trend? Writing radio safe doesn't always mean fad following or trending. Ok, even Dave was disappointed with RISK but I don't remember an emo screamo drop beat. I didn't see any Megadeth albums without guitar solos like the late grunge post grunge slack rock punk pop. Oh, did you think Dave should have wrote music to suite your tastes... Lol, that would be exactly the instance you are mocking him for now. See, I am an older metal fan myself, and back in the early to mid eighties other fans would call a person a poser if the bands they liked even looked at a make up kit. I was even judgemental to some extent. I had a couple friend get cornered at a show in Lawrence MA for being "posers" for not liking the terrible opening act for UFS Afterbirth. Selling out is doing anything you are not in agreement of and or control of. Many folk have said the S-word with Metallica. Not true my friend, they totally were in control of what they were doing and were in agreement of their decision. If they were to make music for your liking, they might not be fully on board and that would make them posers. Megadeth has been great at what they do, and if not.... Dave has certainly done a fantastic job bullshitting everyone to make the populous believe it to be true. I'm a fan although I don't like every single song. So lighten up or you to may be ensnared in the same poser trap that you yourself had set. It happens, and it usually starts with fault finding and trolling.

      Obviously not, but they're a part of the equation - you can't really be considered "Thinking Man's Metal" if you have unintelligent or simplistic lyrics. And James' and Lars' brilliant songwriting and arranging talents are also a reflection of their intelligence.

      @sainandanramakrishnan4812 5 років тому

      @@hinjurock Except that being a thinking man's metal band really doesn't have anything to do with the intelligence of the players themselves. Its a lot more aligned with how intelligent the presentation of the message is through the song and how smartly composed the musical passages themselves are, so much so that a dumb listener cannot possibly uncover all the positive aspects about the song. Mustaine's use of metaphors and figure of speeches in the lyrics that pertain to realistic subjects are second to none, you actually need to realize what's going around you to understand the full depth of his message.
      Not to mention, a casual, unequipped listener would EASILY overlook and fail to appreciate a good bulk of intricacies that make finished Megadeth passages amazing to listen to, because there is just SO MUCH MORE INTERESTING BUZZ going on musicianship-wise compared to straight-forward Metallica songs ( a.l.a the genius switching rhythm section underneath Rust In Peace, Youthanasia and Countdown To Extinction solos which first-time listeners hardly pay attention to because they are already overwhelmed by the solo ). Hence, the aptly coined phrased 'Thinking Man's Metal Band', which they were referred to as early as 1988.

The main difference between Megadeth and Metallica these days is I still listen to Megadeth pretty regularly while I haven't willingly listened to Metallica in a little over twenty years.

    First time I saw Megadeth is in the early nineties. They opened for Dio in Greensboro, NC (so far, so good, so what) it was my first concert. I was hooked. Shows my age I suppose. I will always have fond memories of Dave and Megadeth.
    Side story while at the show I was taking pictures while in the third row from the stage. Dave spotted me taking pictures and pointed at me because I wasn't supposed to be taking those pictures and he knew and pointed me out so the guards could get me. I fell back into the crowd and watched the rest of the show. I had the best time also I thought him pointing at me was so awesome! I was telling my friend you see dave point at me? I was young and dumb as we all are. lol Saw Megadeth a bunch more times. Hope I will get to again soon.

I saw that Ric Flair had a booth, but it was really crowded and I didn’t want to get separated from my group, so I took a picture on my phone of him, then a lady sitting next to him pointed at me and he looked in my direction, at first I thought, “Oh shit, better disappear into the crowd”, like you did, but thought it was awesome that he noticed me. I hope Dave recovers from this

I like metallica too and its a blessing that us old schoolers got to grow up with these guys and its been an inspiration to me . I started playing guitars and was in a metal band and dave mustaine was one of my main influences. but I went through some rough times the past 2 months but its really taught me alot and its taught me to refocus on life and get back to playing my guitar and pick up positive attitude instead of relying on some drug to satisfy me . may we have megadeth forever
