Dave Ellefson back in Megadeth!

Chris Broderick is definitely talented, and pulls off Marty's leads well live - no doubt about it, but his solos on Endgame just don't have the same melody and feel that Marty's did on RIP. Chris is fast and technical - but I think Marty's playing was much more melodic and appealing to my ear.

I coudn't agree more. Great playing, but nothing that hooked me. Kind of like expensive Tofu in a taco salad.

Interesting

That's right, you dumbass!

Let's look at the super-informative title you gave your thread: "Jr" :ROTF:

Darrrrrrrrrrr!

Now look at this thread title.

Who doesn't know who "Jr" is, on the Jackson board???

Besides...Makes it more interesting. "what the hell does..."Jrs back..." mean...Lets take a look"!...

Just trying to keep things interesting...AND...In the correct location! :p:

Fuck I'm awesome!!!

[toejam]

Dave, you'd be more awesome if you'd just give me that black cherry XTRR already! :idea:

[sevser]

That is the toughest guitar I have even held!!! I haven't even needed a set up on that sucker...It has been true since I got it in 99'! Still chip free...and it has been hit, many times. Nothing other than the clear coat has been damaged.

However...I WILL offer it up to "The Toe" before ANYONE else, first!

[toejam]

Nice.

[sevser]

I can't youtube on this computer but...If you search for severed serenity and look at the "Deep in Ruin" vid...You can see how pretty she still is...

[toejam]

Sweet! It's still one of the few Jacksons I like with a reverse headstock.

Dave Ellefson is back in Megadeth for the Rust In Peace anniversary tour and I have tickets for the Asheville NC show! This show is gonna be killer!

I have tickets for the same show I live in Las Vegas, but will be in Kentucky on business, so heading to Asheville for the weekend will be a no-brainer. Then fly back to KY on Tuesday. Used to live in Asheville so this will be like a loud fucking homecoming hahaha

Happy for Jr.... I hope Dave M is OK. He looks like poo in that roadrunner press release.

You're right dude. He's indeed sick. Check out his most recent LiveLine voice message and you can hear it. This is an interesting message for another reason though, and that's that he hints that Jr. might be a temporary thing. Or at least thats what it sounds like to me. Perhaps this tour is a trial run of sorts?

He also talks about a new Megadeth track that Jr. has played on. He didn't go into detail, but guessing if he's played on a new track then this turn of events didn't happen "over the weekend" like they're both saying it did.

Just my two cents of course

Found this pic on Ellefson's Facebook page.

Who are those two guys hanging out with Megadeth? lmao

[Spiderman]

That pic makes it look like they have my MXR Phase 90 behind them with its blinding blue light.

[skorb]

does that mean Marty might come back? or is there not enough tight japanese pussy in Dave's trickbag to make that happen?

that fucking made me laugh

thank you!

I love Marty-era Megadeth, nothing's better!
