And - I'm telling you this as a natural fact - he would literally give you the shirt off his back. He gave away lots of Skynyrd stuff at concerts, back stage, at his house, on tour.

Not nice with all their money
I knew Ron and Cliff were on good terms with each other as Ron knew Cliff was the guy for Metallica, but I never knew about this party. I really do wonder particularly what James's relationship with Dave has been like over the years, because Dave has always looked up to James and James just seems to not be interested. But James doesn't always wear his heart on his sleeve.
James and Dave have talked afterwords but they didn't make it public. Mostly because of Cliff you know.. i think they finally really talked during the Justice days. I seen people mention in 89 or so. I think Dave did somthing to James when he was drunk. Maybe a fight went to far. But there not close like they should be.
@@MetaITurtle There was an incident with Jame's dog I believe? The way I heard it Dave kicked Jame's dog a bunch while drunk, and they kicked him out the next morning, though not certain how true that anecdote is.
Rule number 1 for being in Metallica: You can't be closer to James than Lars. Look at the 1st line-up, all 3 other members were closer to James than each other Lars wouldn't have it. It was later evident after Jason had left, when Pepper auditioned. James explained that they're too close and it would affect his relationship with Lars. Look at all the other members who have endured the band: Cliff, Jason, Rob, Kirk. They all occupied that middle ground. Basically Kirk was always paired with the bass player. It's just like Spinal Tap, "he's fire, he's ice, and I'm lukewarm water".
@@feraldemon5250 Please read a little bit more about that. He DID have second chances, he said it himself in interviews. He punched James, he was out, next day he was begging to be back in... there's at least two times he was booted out, so he had at least one second chance. I am fed up to hear him whining "what? no warning, no second chance?" for the past 40 years, while he did have a second chance but did not give that second chance to his own bandmates in Megadeth. He will go down in history as both a great guitar player / songwriter and as the biggest whiner ever. Extremely talented musician, equally unlikeable person.

@@GL.Sorrell Thanks for the accolade! ;) But I heard it from Dave himself (from 01:23 here: ua-cam.com/video/SgEpzEh7neM/v-deo.html). So I'll stick to that.
@@tigrou1426 You're welcome. You still need to read up on their chances before firing them though. From his own books in detail, which is you know, by Dave himself.
i had always though Ron was more just friends with the guys and never intended to really be in the band and was just jamming with them till they found someone, its a shame people had to be shitty to him. also i get so sick of hearing about Daves one sided feud with Kirk, holding a grudge for decades against a guy that never did anything to you. he simply accepted an offer he didnt try to manipulate the band and talk them into kicking you out or anything,
Hmm... I can understand why he holds a grudge though. A bit like another man/woman running off with your other half - rarely do you think positively towards that person.
Dave had a "good" reason to have a grudge- against Lars, Cliff and James. After all, they are the ones who kicked him and replaced him with Kirk. And the way they kicked him was... Horrible... But I think Dave just had too much fun, created too many good memories, and overall liked those guys so much that he misdirected his anger and grudge towards Kirk. Dave had good reasons for having a grudge and being bitter and angry, but he directed it towards the wrong person.
Ron said himself he didn't have much ambition. He just wanted to play in a garage band and have fun. I think that was a big part of why the band, in general, and Dave in particular, bullied him. Keep in mind, they were 19 when they fired Dave. 19 year Olds aren't known for empathy and handling things well. The way that went down, I would have been salty, too, if I were Dave.

2 of those aren't true, Dave brought his dog to the studio and James kicked the dog and Dave went judo on James and Ron, Lars stayed out of it from what I heard, and I heard Dave say this in an interview with Loudwire, plugging in something that's wet, your ass is going get fried, he knew it was dumb to begin with...
@@kennealy2148 Not true. The incident happened out the front of the house Ron and James were living in. Dave’s dog jumped on Ron’s car. The fight then happened in the living room shortly after. Lars wasn’t even there. I don’t care what Dave said. He’s lying if that’s what you heard
Sounds like Metallica often picked on the weaker members i.e. This guy and Jason. If the bass player couldn't stand their ground or beat them up then they got picked on. That's why their current bassist fits in because he'd kick their asses. This is the law of the jungle for these misfits,
This is hilarious. When you see these skinny-ass dudes in their early days and think of them being bullies or physically picking on someone. One solid right hook would've brought any one of them down. Hell, even motley Crue would've mopped the floor with them.
@infoslinger Right. They don't give Robert a hard time because they're all old now. Also, Cliff passed very young and isn't around to say what his experiences were like behind closed doors.
@@michaelboyle5805 Imagine ACDC kicking Angus Young out caus his lead breaks were sloppy. Or Iron Maiden firing Steve Harris caus he didn't know music theory. Or GNR sacking Axl Rose caus he starts riots. lol. James is the popular guy in the band, but Lars is the genius.
I've always thought Ron was justified in having a whinge, I mean Mustaine poured beer thru his gear and stole Ron's stuff for hock. Mustaine on the other hand created a lot of his own bad luck and reaped what he sowed to this day.
Alot of people think Kirk and Dave never met. But they indeed did meet a few times, when Kirk was in Exodus and when Kirk was in Metallica. So Dave was around Kirk and then he saw his Girlfriend.
@Nic TheCow No, only someone who isn't a drummer would think that. I submit this video of a six year old playing Master Of Puppets better than Lars as evidence: ua-cam.com/video/gcfsrhXP2rg/v-deo.html
@@Bolln4791 Why did Lars write all the songs? His live performances were cringeworthy. It's hard to take a drummer who plays standing up seriously. I suspect that you and Nic TheCow are fanboys who wore Metallica jean jackets in junior high. If Neil Peart had been the drummer, the band would have done even better.
Didn't Dave throw Ron's shoes out of their truck on the ride back home from a gig one time? Maybe right after they got Cliff to join? I could've swore I read something about that back in the day. It's a bummer Ron got picked on, but hopefully his time in the band has been lucrative for him later on in life in some way, at least for interviews and stuff. I know Metallica really owe him a lot, from having a place to play to someone who was working hard for them behind the scenes in the early days, or just a bass player who was into the same music, really. Power metal!
He chose to quit the band,because of Dave Mustains wild partying and picking fights with band members,Sounds like Lynyrd Skynyrd in the seventies,thier drunken brawls were legendary.
ua-cam.com/video/3hqzZJYXGgw/v-deo.html is a great interview that sheds light on lots of stuff that were going on at that time, at 11:25 James literally calls Ron as a shit Bassist and that he had to teach him how to play bass.
Sometimes I wonder how things would have been if Dave got along with the dudes in the band and had never been fired. His crazy ADD style of playing certainly would have made some songs more interesting. With that being said, Metallica as a band wouldn't have reached the level of success they're at right now. But two vocalists? Far out.
They almost employed John Bush as their vocalist. Imagine the lineup: Hetfield Mustaine Ulrich Burton Bush Just needed either Dave Lombardo, or Scott Travis and your metal supergroup would be complete.
@@mysocalledknife07 Dude. You're talking about a friggen Dream Team. Not to take away from Urich, but Lombardo? One of the absolute best. I read somewhere that there were talks with Geddy Lee about producing Master of Puppets. I could imagine Geddy saying to Lombardo, "Now you know what kind of drummer I like". "Hell yeah".
There was so much shit with these guys, but that’s what could happen, ya know? Think about it. They were barely in their early 20’s. Still considered teenagers. It makes sense.. I’m glad most things have been figured out.
I recall there being some Metallica fan website years ago, and in the bio section for past members, Ron’s was this really sour rant that looked like a fanboy wrote it. I wonder what that was all about.
It almost seems like a raw deal for the bassists in this band? Ron was a young kid,,they all were, but had his crap together, & with the other guys all fuckd up with drugs & alcohol, they booted Ron, yet, if that never were to happen, then we never would've gotten Cliff!!? Then along came Jason not shortly thereafter, taking over for a Bass God in Cliff, & from day one, Lars & James' ego never had him on equal footing!!
Every band has former members who didn't make the final cut before fame, it's just life. Horrible to those who just missed out, rock on, start your own band if you have the talent. Next he"ll say Metallica would be better with him in it! 😆
I see comments on other videos bitching about how "badly" Metallica treated Jason Newsted, as if they didn't give him the chance of a lifetime, becoming a world renowned rock star and a millionaire many times over, but "oooooh they turned his bass down on 1 album!!" Meanwhile, Ron Mcgovney gets treated like shit, doesn't get paid for it, and then gets booted from the band before they strike gold, leaving him as merely a footnote on the wikepedia page of one of the largest bands in the world. Ron is OG bassist and i take my hat off to him. cheers, Sir.
Also, Jason angered his former bandmates when he left Flotsam and Jetsam. I like Jason but his former band was having a decent amount of success and I don't blame them for feeling betrayed (plus Newsted was basically the band manager and he left on such short notice that he basically handed a pile of legal and bank documents to the Flots guys and said "you're on your own now".
@@ryanjacobson2508 I didn't know about any of that. interesting. I mean, on one hand, it's easy to understand the business decision to join the hottest new metal band on the planet, at the time. On the other hand, he basically sold out and abandoned his ols band all at once.

Ron: Nope, i bury the hatchet that same day, we had a party
Lmfaooo nice Dave mustaine reference 😂
That interviewer is literally Chris Jericho
@@cubzrulz Antonio just made the list
They say if you look back on your life and you don't have any "cringe" moments or memories then you haven't developed or changed as a person...I wonder how the guys feel when they think back on Ron?
They havent grown up yet
@@thatisme3thatisme38 that's cause they live in the past about all their hits n stadium sellouts. Even self-reflection videos is about how they've grown upon themselves, not to others or it circles back to their "family". So basically use treat people cr*p and look after their family. Not nice with all their money
Ron is a great person and it's a shame he didn't start a new band
Oh my god dude imagine a picture with 1983 Metallica + Dave and Ron. That is too good
I knew Ron and Cliff were on good terms with each other as Ron knew Cliff was the guy for Metallica, but I never knew about this party. I really do wonder particularly what James's relationship with Dave has been like over the years, because Dave has always looked up to James and James just seems to not be interested. But James doesn't always wear his heart on his sleeve.
James and Dave have talked afterwords but they didn't make it public. Mostly because of Cliff you know.. i think they finally really talked during the Justice days. I seen people mention in 89 or so. I think Dave did somthing to James when he was drunk. Maybe a fight went to far. But there not close like they should be.
I've never once had the impression or even heard anyone say that Mustaine looked up to Hetfield.
But, I wasn't around them, so I don't truly know
@@MetaITurtle There was an incident with Jame's dog I believe? The way I heard it Dave kicked Jame's dog a bunch while drunk, and they kicked him out the next morning, though not certain how true that anecdote is.
@@werewolf2003002 Bullshit.
I personally think Dave’s a better guitar player than kurt
Honestly I’d rather never been in Metallica than have that happen to me and have to think about that my entire life 0 my God Drive me insane
Rule number 1 for being in Metallica: You can't be closer to James than Lars.
Look at the 1st line-up, all 3 other members were closer to James than each other Lars wouldn't have it. It was later evident after Jason had left, when Pepper auditioned. James explained that they're too close and it would affect his relationship with Lars. Look at all the other members who have endured the band: Cliff, Jason, Rob, Kirk. They all occupied that middle ground. Basically Kirk was always paired with the bass player. It's just like Spinal Tap, "he's fire, he's ice, and I'm lukewarm water".
Ron: my new rickenbacher got stolen, then all of a sudden I'm out of the band.
Ron actually was a good bass player.
Dave kept his fingers crossed for a third chance
He didn’t have a second chance actually.
@@feraldemon5250 Please read a little bit more about that. He DID have second chances, he said it himself in interviews. He punched James, he was out, next day he was begging to be back in... there's at least two times he was booted out, so he had at least one second chance. I am fed up to hear him whining "what? no warning, no second chance?" for the past 40 years, while he did have a second chance but did not give that second chance to his own bandmates in Megadeth. He will go down in history as both a great guitar player / songwriter and as the biggest whiner ever. Extremely talented musician, equally unlikeable person.
@@tigrou1426 Please read a bit more about Dave giving Megadeth members chances, of course he did.
You can't try correcting anyone & turn right back around being a hypocrite.
@@GL.Sorrell Thanks for the accolade! ;) But I heard it from Dave himself (from 01:23 here: ua-cam.com/video/SgEpzEh7neM/v-deo.html). So I'll stick to that.
@@tigrou1426 You're welcome. You still need to read up on their chances before firing them though. From his own books in detail, which is you know, by Dave himself.
Poor Ron he shelled out $600 for the NLTL demo and Dave poured beer on his bass...sad
Dave bought him a new one when he was wealthy in megadeth
Wow, I didn´t know Dave hung out with them so soon after he was fired. Thought it took years and years...
First time I met him was after they opened for Saxon at the Whiskey A Go Go. Very nice guy
i had always though Ron was more just friends with the guys and never intended to really be in the band and was just jamming with them till they found someone, its a shame people had to be shitty to him. also i get so sick of hearing about Daves one sided feud with Kirk, holding a grudge for decades against a guy that never did anything to you. he simply accepted an offer he didnt try to manipulate the band and talk them into kicking you out or anything,
Hmm... I can understand why he holds a grudge though. A bit like another man/woman running off with your other half - rarely do you think positively towards that person.
Dave had a "good" reason to have a grudge- against Lars, Cliff and James. After all, they are the ones who kicked him and replaced him with Kirk. And the way they kicked him was... Horrible... But I think Dave just had too much fun, created too many good memories, and overall liked those guys so much that he misdirected his anger and grudge towards Kirk. Dave had good reasons for having a grudge and being bitter and angry, but he directed it towards the wrong person.
Ron said himself he didn't have much ambition. He just wanted to play in a garage band and have fun. I think that was a big part of why the band, in general, and Dave in particular, bullied him.
Keep in mind, they were 19 when they fired Dave. 19 year Olds aren't known for empathy and handling things well. The way that went down, I would have been salty, too, if I were Dave.

Metallica did to Dave what Ron did to Metallica
I think every person who exited Metallica did so in a bad way
Jason not really, I feel he made out pretty well.
Jason was the only one who made the choice to leave, out of everyone. Still, he left because of how he was treated.
How Megadeth was born:
Dave
1. Kicked James' dog
2. Beating Lars
3. Pissed on Ron's Bass
4. Got kicked out of Metallica
You got that the other way around: James kicked Dave’s dogs.
@@austinhawthorne6310 just trolling
@@austinhawthorne6310 For jumping on Ron’s car. He also punched James that day as well and was kicked out of the band for about 12 hours until he cried and begged for another chance which he got, even though he always lied and said he had no second chance
2 of those aren't true, Dave brought his dog to the studio and James kicked the dog and Dave went judo on James and Ron, Lars stayed out of it from what I heard, and I heard Dave say this in an interview with Loudwire, plugging in something that's wet, your ass is going get fried, he knew it was dumb to begin with...
@@kennealy2148 Not true. The incident happened out the front of the house Ron and James were living in. Dave’s dog jumped on Ron’s car. The fight then happened in the living room shortly after. Lars wasn’t even there. I don’t care what Dave said. He’s lying if that’s what you heard
Sounds like Metallica often picked on the weaker members i.e. This guy and Jason. If the bass player couldn't stand their ground or beat them up then they got picked on. That's why their current bassist fits in because he'd kick their asses. This is the law of the jungle for these misfits,
The weakest member did the picking...Lars.
The weakest member did the picking...Lars.
This is hilarious. When you see these skinny-ass dudes in their early days and think of them being bullies or physically picking on someone. One solid right hook would've brought any one of them down. Hell, even motley Crue would've mopped the floor with them.
@infoslinger Right. They don't give Robert a hard time because they're all old now. Also, Cliff passed very young and isn't around to say what his experiences were like behind closed doors.
Jason Newsted got picked on and harrassed too. WTF is wrong with those guys

Metallica have done some pretty shitty things to their own bandmates.
Did Ron still pursue music after? What did he end up doing ?
from comments, looks like he had talent but no drive, or Cliffs muscality
He is such a nice dude. Poor Ron. That Dave statement is interesting. Apparently they would still hang out in the 80s i guess right?
Alot of people think Kirk and Dave never met. But they indeed did meet a few times, when Kirk was in Exodus and when Kirk was in Metallica. So Dave was around Kirk and then he saw his Girlfriend.
I personally think Dave’s a better player than kurt
Dude was in Metallica he could say that They are the greatest band in the world
Betcha he missed all those gazillions of dollars. I can’t take a lot of crap for rockstar dollars after working construction.
Thats heavy
Too bad they never replaced lars with a good drummer.
Well…then you wouldn’t have had this video to comment on, because, Metallica wouldn’t had become what they are today probably.
@Nic TheCow No, only someone who isn't a drummer would think that.
I submit this video of a six year old playing Master Of Puppets better than Lars as evidence: ua-cam.com/video/gcfsrhXP2rg/v-deo.html
@@Bolln4791 Why did Lars write all the songs? His live performances were cringeworthy. It's hard to take a drummer who plays standing up seriously.

Dude, he’s the drummer of a thrash band, not Rush.
@@deazl666 Neil is talented enough to succeed in any band. Don't change the subject, this string is about how lars sucks.
For every successful band there are as many similar stories.
No shame being the guy Cliff Burton replaced. It is like losing to a world champ at something. You lost but to a worthy person.
Didn't Dave throw Ron's shoes out of their truck on the ride back home from a gig one time? Maybe right after they got Cliff to join? I could've swore I read something about that back in the day. It's a bummer Ron got picked on, but hopefully his time in the band has been lucrative for him later on in life in some way, at least for interviews and stuff. I know Metallica really owe him a lot, from having a place to play to someone who was working hard for them behind the scenes in the early days, or just a bass player who was into the same music, really. Power metal!

He chose to quit the band,because of Dave Mustains wild partying and picking fights with band members,Sounds like Lynyrd Skynyrd in the seventies,thier drunken brawls were legendary.
For 38 years the story is that he left sick & tired of Mustaine 🤣🤔
I just realized that's Chris Jericho he's talking to
ua-cam.com/video/3hqzZJYXGgw/v-deo.html is a great interview that sheds light on lots of stuff that were going on at that time, at 11:25 James literally calls Ron as a shit Bassist and that he had to teach him how to play bass.
Dave to this day says Ron was extremely talented and wanted him to stay in Megadeth while making Dave Jr rhythm guitarist.
I wonder if Dave ever asked Ron to try out for Megadeth
I"d wager that the answer is no.
Imagine if he did got the picture of all 6 of them
Sometimes I wonder how things would have been if Dave got along with the dudes in the band and had never been fired.
His crazy ADD style of playing certainly would have made some songs more interesting. With that being said, Metallica as a band wouldn't have reached the level of success they're at right now. But two vocalists? Far out.
Dave's not a real vocalist let's be real here
@@sheepinwolvesclothing1135
There aren't too many metal "vocalists" who really are vocalists. But I get your point.
They almost employed John Bush as their vocalist. Imagine the lineup:

None of these guys are ever given a check and shown financially...what they mean to Metallica..so just fyi ..they care about your money.
Not ppl...
It's known that James & Lars are very much control freaks.
There was so much shit with these guys, but that’s what could happen, ya know? Think about it. They were barely in their early 20’s. Still considered teenagers. It makes sense..
I’m glad most things have been figured out.
I recall there being some Metallica fan website years ago, and in the bio section for past members, Ron’s was this really sour rant that looked like a fanboy wrote it. I wonder what that was all about.
I wish he would of formed his own band
🌞
I've never even heard of this guy... O.o
Thank you for making room for Cliff.
It almost seems like a raw deal for the bassists in this band? Ron was a young kid,,they all were, but had his crap together, & with the other guys all fuckd up with drugs & alcohol, they booted Ron, yet, if that never were to happen, then we never would've gotten Cliff!!? Then along came Jason not shortly thereafter, taking over for a Bass God in Cliff, & from day one, Lars & James' ego never had him on equal footing!!
🤘
Every band has former members who didn't make the final cut before fame, it's just life. Horrible to those who just missed out, rock on, start your own band if you have the talent. Next he"ll say Metallica would be better with him in it! 😆

I understand that Blood Sweat and Tears has had something
like OVER ONE HUNDRED members throughout their run.
Hold on, Ron and Dave, two people who were forced out and kicked out, both went to party with Metallica afterwards?
get Ron on Joe Rogan man
He didn't need them. A talent like his was bound to greater success.
So Metallica isn't successful enough?
Well apparently HE thought he needed them! 😅
I see comments on other videos bitching about how "badly" Metallica treated Jason Newsted, as if they didn't give him the chance of a lifetime, becoming a world renowned rock star and a millionaire many times over, but "oooooh they turned his bass down on 1 album!!"
Meanwhile, Ron Mcgovney gets treated like shit, doesn't get paid for it, and then gets booted from the band before they strike gold, leaving him as merely a footnote on the wikepedia page of one of the largest bands in the world. Ron is OG bassist and i take my hat off to him. cheers, Sir.
Also, Jason angered his former bandmates when he left Flotsam and Jetsam. I like Jason but his former band was having a decent amount of success and I don't blame them for feeling betrayed (plus Newsted was basically the band manager and he left on such short notice that he basically handed a pile of legal and bank documents to the Flots guys and said "you're on your own now".
@@ryanjacobson2508 I didn't know about any of that. interesting. I mean, on one hand, it's easy to understand the business decision to join the hottest new metal band on the planet, at the time. On the other hand, he basically sold out and abandoned his ols band all at once.
