  • Best book Ive ever read. It was really awesome to read about him then go see him at Gigantour a few nights ago. The amount of respect I have for this man is limitless. Def. my #1 idol. Rock on Dave \m/

  • Best fucking book I've ever read!

  • Dave's faith saved his life. He was strung out on heroin. Quit bashing his religion.

  • Dave is a genuinely cool dude. After a show, one of my guitar students went behind the place they played at in Chicago and met him. This was during the So far So good So what tour. He said Dave invited him in their tour bus to hang out for a while, which he did of course. He got to meet all the guys in the band. He said Dave was down to Earth and treated him more like a friend than just a fan.

  • Dave wears amazingly cool t shirt !

  • His neck is fucked, poor guy, you can see he tries to keep it straight as possible.

  • Guy with the comment under me he did cut his hair shorter before when my uncle met him. It was like to his ears

  • dave still hasnt cut his hair... he refuses to conform!

  • damn, Dave looks like he's rode under the bus a few times too many.

  • "I gotta tell ya That shit ain't shit" Dave is fucking epic \m/ \m/

  • That lady at 6:06 has no idea she is by a legend.

  • @bojanklesexperience Yeah XD I would go ape sh*t if I saw him there

  • 2:27 watches!

  • the god dave mustaine  :D

  • 1:15 lars looks like a fucking girl.......

  • Met Dave and had a blast he signd my book and shirt because I had to wait for two and a half hours. Still I had an awesome conversation with the guy.

  • You expect dave to bang playboy chicks when he has a wife

  • The best thing that could happen to Dave and Hetfield would be that they both started shooting heroine again. Maybe we'd hear some good songs again, huh?

  • @YoungManNihilist what the f*ck is wrong with you?

  • 5:37... lol

  • @uome20bukz aaah I see what you did there sir....fair play.....

  • dude Dave looks like he had a rough night lol

  • Just read his book. In less than 24 hours. Couldn't put it down. But 'hard' drugs, Dave? I wasn't in your shoes, so I guess I wouldn't know. I respect you now more than I did, and I liked you from the beginning.

  • ( cont. ) Wow, that's a nice and neat bookstore. Had it just opened? The bookstores in the States can be crap and that bookstore looks like paradise in comparison.

  • ( lol ) Dave looks horrible. He ought to lose weight and he should take a shower before leaving wherever he's currently staying. Nice to see he's still got those long thick locks; he may look like an anachronism but one can't accuse the man of a lack of individuality.

    I browsed through his autobio and it's readable and looks worthy to be added to anyone's bookshelf. I found it to be even better than the Keith Richards memoir. ( cont. )

  • @ManilaSyndicate Dave is one of the creators of American thrash metal and he'll be 50 years old this fall...he can look however the hell he wants.

  • Ya metallica sells out to a bunch of fags like you bitch! MEGADETH FOREVER PUNK!

  • @MrSerius5150 you mad?

  • right...right....right,right..­..

  • Damn, Dave's wife is HAWT!

  • christ his face turned into an old woman's!!!!!!!

  • OOoohhh, watches!

  • Thank You Very Much \/

  • The song is the right to go insane,

    Its at the end of the song

  • What's the name of the song at the end??

    Please I gotta know

  • @Thrasher5251 ''the right to go insane'' great song to learn

  • Is it me or the interviewer is like,,,yeah yeah right yeah yeah all the time !!! lol, Dave rules \m/

  • TO 502-IM 42 THE FEMALE COUNTERPART TO MASTERMIND-HE'S BEEN MY LANDSCAPE 4 A LONG TIME A GUILTY PLEASURE-A WELCOME OBSESSION-LISTEN&LEARN-THEN THROW ON SOME OLD B-SIDE THIN LIZZY

  • Dave looks tired and sounds brilliant at the same time!

  • I didn't know he listened to Peter Gabriel, thats pretty awesome.

  • was mustaine just sleeping before the interview?

  • i gotta tell you that shit ain't shit xD

  • I love Megadeth... but don't trash METALLICA...the are sell outs, they sellout every night!

  • 0:48 Halo books!

  • actually, he has a really beautiful smile. but seems like he never smile

  • imagine, metallica with hetfield, mustaine, burton, and ulrich... that would be the greatest metallica !

  • @aditsetan stuff like nothing else matters, load, reload, st anger wudnt have been written. mustaine wud have defo not approved of nothing else matters, maybe efen unforgiven. he was all bout thrash roots when metallica were selling out

  • he ain't totally clean, whatever, if it's alcohol i don't know, but he's not together. i should know. takes one to know one. great guitarist though.

  • ohh shit that looks like me from behind LOL

  • Big Time! yes. Love the old blue haired lady in the background! Mustaine!

  • 5:55

    That old lady it's thinking: "Who's that hairy motherfucker that looks like a duck???"

  • that lady has no idea who is in the next isle

  • I love Megadeth I been a fan since the first day on the scene & I do play alot of there stuff I been playing for 20 years & Megadeth music is the best out there. I have seen them two times in my life time Dave M. KEEP GOING DUDE MEGADETH FAN FOR LIFE I KNOW WHERE WERE COMING FROM THANKS DAVE.

  • I want this book so bad but i cant find it around here....he looks weird in this interview

  • i love the ps2 chord bicep vains ^-^

  • I know that dave is clean and stuff, but id say he smokes an occasional joint here and there.

  • Its pretty cool how Dave is one of those guys who listens to ALL types of music and incorporates them into his own music. Metal bands now a days take themselves too seriously and ONLY listen to metal. It does get pretty redundant and boring.

    Dave Mustaine is a great musician and a great person. I read the book and its pretty damn good.

  • damn..what a cool guy. I remember back in the day everyone always talked about what an ass he was in interviews, etc. But hes a very articulate, well spoken person. much respect to him

  • i fucking l<3ve dave!

  • Dave is the shit. And he doesn't speak shit when he's been interviewed like other guys.

    I know this is gonna sound stupid but thumbs up if you want dave to be your mentor!

    Rock n rock \m/ guys !

  • i used to be a Jehova guy just like dave and when i finished his book i realized that we had the same reasons of why where not part of that anymore.

  • It's amazing how much Dave has been a figure to look upto for me (musical wise) and it's funny how his parents were jehovah's witnesses like mine. Keep it up Dave you're AWESOME!

  • No one tells Dave to shoosh in a library!

  • @Horns9 wasn't a library  ... try "book store"

  • @Horns9 thats a book store dick

  • Dave is GOD, been a fan of Megadeth since 85,and always will be, \m/

  • a greeat book ,, finally some one who doesn't brag on their succses . Fuckin dave mustaine man ! what a god :)

  • For the people that say the interviewer is lame just screw off. That's his freakin job. All they do is get picked to do an interview on someone they probably don't know and ask questions. Sadly it is all strictly business. So maybe after the camera was done rolling the guy probably talked more to Dave about how awesome. Either that, or he's just another lame Canadian lol

  • Im going to buy his book now.

  • we love you dave!

  • good video but that guy asking the question is really annoying. crappy interviewer who just says yeah yeah or right right the whole time learn how to talk too people instead of repeating yourself the whole time.

  • LOL @ THE OLD LADY AT 6:00 WHO DOESNT REALIZE SHES LIKE 5 FT. AWAY FROM A LEGEND

  • I can't stand this guy. He just seems like a prick.

  • @alyshooting

    Then why the fuck are you watching the video dumbass?

  • @alyshooting Have you even met him!? Ignorant fool

  • great interview !

  • he needs plastic surgery

  • his wife is hot LOL

  • Funny how he talks about religion!

    "this belive that they have" XD

    Thumbs up for this man!

  • 5:50 some old lady just appears and stands at the opposite side of the book shelf and acts like she's not listening but by the look on her face you can tell she's thinking, "Who the fuck is this?"

  • After this interview and many more this year, I've concluded that Dave is using again or drinking again

  • @ColtinNotChicken Well that's bullshit. 

  • @XFunkWizardX I don't think so.I heard it from roadies on another website

  • @ColtinNotChicken what?! really??

  • @yadrition Yeah.On MetalSucks website

  • nice interview

    yah yah eh yah yah

  • I didnt know Shawn Drover was Canadian eh ..I AM TOOO

  • Is he being interviewed by a stoned frog? "yeah yeah yeah, right right right, croak croak croak, yeah yeah yeah, right right right, croak, yeah, yeah, ribbet, ribbet, right right right......"

  • drugs made his face more rectangular

  • i read the book from start to finish just couldnt put it down brillant read

  • Oh shit he looks fucked up!

  • dave lookds haggard

  • this video was uploaded on my b-day!!!

  • @slickshittv OMG OMG! God have a wank!

  • omg country music have taken over the king of thrash metal vocalists! James Hetfield loves country, Tom Araya have used country music to help him sing, and now dave is listening to country! what is going on here!

  • This book is pure inspiration, from being broke, young as hell, and on his own, to just trying to get KIMB done and recorded, and just trying to keep his band alive , and the struggle with drugs and alcohol and his inner emotions of Metallica and inferioity......Everybody has it hard sometimes.......sometimes really hard......Long live Dave Mustaine.

  • yes I read the book, Don't think there was a single page that didn't mention drugs!

  • I was there when he did the signings. Was fucking cool.

  • Mustaine=Drama queen

    But i love him:P

  • Mustaine = Junkie

  • I gotta say anyone without this book is missing out. The first day I actually started reading it I read 104pgs with no breaks it's just so catchy still havnt finished it cause I have school and shit and waiting for that time to pick it up again

  • man dave is looking ruff in this interview

  • Comment removed

  • I'm 19 and I've been playing guitar for ten years, and of all the new players out today, Dave has been the biggest influence on my guitar playing. I cannot stand new metal music. Megadeth is always going to be my favorite band. I hope my band will be heard some day and my playing can live up to Dave's example.

    His book is very very good, by the way. Better than Motley Crues! haha

  • @mgdth502 Hey man if you like Megadeth riffs you should check it out that band VEKTOR they have Megadeth, and pink floyed influence.

  • @DawnPatroler

    fuck yeah Vektor and Sakrificer are some of my faves

  • @mgdth502 exactly ive been playin for only 10 months just because i wanted to be as good as mustaine eventually so far i can play holy wars fully and learned improvisation with his solo style

  • @mgdth502 haha im 21 and been playing guitar for 10 years and was mainly influenced by dave too, i recently got his guitar pick and now have a silver vmnt :)

  • @mgdth502 Agree totaly new metal is real fucking crap!

  • @mgdth502 That just makes you a teenager who's wrong.

    Gary fucking Moore started playing when he was 16 and you'll never be as good as he was when he was at 21.

    Btw, Dave is nowadays a fucking christian moron full of shit. Sure, he can play guitar, but this holier-than-thou mentality takes me right back to why I don't like Metallica.

    I'm just glad we've got Slayer, Testament and Kreator to keep the scene alive after these religious cocksuckers are gone.

  • And don't fucking whine about how his life "has been so hard an his friends have died and blah blah". Fucking look at Tommy Lee. He's still banging Playboy chicks. Fuck Religious-Dave.

  • @YoungManNihilist Dave has a wife. That would be considered cheating.

  • @YoungManNihilist That can't have been a response to what I said...

    Either way, it looks to me like you're more into trash talking Dave because he says he's a christian opposed to wanting to discuss or acknowledge how creative he has been as a musician. I couldn't give a fuck what Dave believes spiritually - he's a great guitarist to my ears and has been a huge influence to me and it ends there.

    I'm not wrong about anything. Not a single thing you said has anything to do with what I said.

    Read.

  • I found a bookstore in my country that has 2 books of dave mustaine: A Heavy Metal Memoir and, A Life In Metal. the second one has more pages so I was planning to go buy that one, but is there any difference between the two books?

  • WTF, the interviewers croaky ye ye ye is so fucking irritating

  • I have that Book

  • Dave Mustaine is very inspiring to me. Not only has he inspired me to pick my guitar back up after almost 7yrs of not even looking at it. He's also inspired me to look outside of my own world and think about what is happening around me (politically). If I was to meet him, I think all I would be able to say is "Thank You!" and shake his hand. I've got to get a copy of his book.

  • Me and my friend left school to go meet Dave mustaine in Portland for book signings and my question to him was what was cliff burton like

  • @ArsenalofMustaine and what did he say?

  • Dave Mustaine is an amazing guitarist, artist, and above all an amazing person.

  • gotta gt it<3

  • This book made me laugh and cry Dave is the man and this book really can help people thank you Dave I enjoyed it and I recommend it to everyone who loves to read long live megadeth

  • lol, "That shit ain't shit." and old lady not knowing that shes next to a rock star.

  • niXXXpix, my ffav part. 

  • I thoroughly enjoyed this book.

  • his book is amazing ! i just finished it yesterday.

  • Whoever is following him sounds stoned..."yea, yea...yea, haha...yea."

  • One of the best books I have ever owned or read.

  • @SpicyDragoon i strongly agree

  • Right on Dave!

  • old lady at 5:50 made me laugh my ass off

  • Comment removed

  • Good Mouring Black Friday Dave! Bad Hair Day?????

  • 0:30 looks more like a worked out version of Glen than Shawn

  • I attended the Toronto book signing with my father and brother, and talking to Dave for 30 seconds was the best 30 seconds of our lives. I finished the book within two weeks, it was an absolute masterpiece.

    There was a girl and a guy right in front of us line, and the girl asked Dave for a hug, and she got it.

    Then we saw Megadeth, Slayer and Testament the following day, and that was the best show of my life.

  • i love the grandma at 5:50 she has no idea who the fuck dave mustaine is! but thats her loss

  • lol he coloured his hairs ?!

  • Met him this morning in Boston. Awesome guy!

  • @DisasterBlaster500

    really??? where was he like round the t or somewhere else, seeing them in lowell is awesome but meeting him in boston must have been cool

  • @96MIAN it was the book signing at Barnes & Noble.

  • @DisasterBlaster500

    damn, i'm thinking of the barnes & noble in braintree. Maybe it was t the one in parkstreet idk but damn am i jealous.

  • @96MIAN it was on Boylston.

  • @DisasterBlaster500

    Damn you, :O

  • That quote owns!!!

    Oh Watches!!!!

  • Dave dosent look old well I get your point

    But he feels young inside

  • Dave is getting old man. his looks tired .

  • What is the name of the song at the end of this film???

  • @ibha1981 It's listed in the credits.  You can also read more about the interview at the links below the video.

  • @ibha1981 the right to go insane

  • why the fuck is it out so late in the UK?

  • Damn it I missed MEGADAVE at chapters in Toronto shit!

  • Im gonna sound like a cheap scrub, but if someone has the book , can u like post it online so us poor teenagers with no money and transportation can read??

  • I want that bok now...I need it!!

  • Dave is an interesting person and a great musician.

  • Enable the subtittles! somehow they messed up everything!!! lmfao!! Im Joe Moret!

  • @camelwide888 you know growing up as a red headed child is arthritis haha that was fucking great lol (Fucking hard) = arthritis

  • Hah, I have that same Angel Witch t-shirt

  • Mustaine, es un Zeus del Metal!

  • Dave was in Toronto!? When?

  • I love Mustaine, and Megadeth have been my favourite band for a couple years now. However, it seems that a decent chunk of the book is about his journey in "finding God", which is the only thing swaying me from buying it.

  • @assassin186 It is his autobiography, his path to Salvation, a bumpy path, I read some shit I never knew bout him its full of more insight than video documentaries or interviews.

  • @AbeVegaJr Yeah.. the whole "path to salvation" shit doesn't do it for me. I'm happy to read through his childhood, and life on stage, but nothing about his religion.

  • @assassin186 why??...lol..its not like he is telling ppl to join or agree his religious views...its just telling the story of his life and how him finding god has helped him change to become a better person u know...

  • @NotoriousYeshi But, in my opinion, "finding god" doesn't make somebody a better person, I feel it makes the person ignorant. As much as I love Dave I don't fancy reading anything about his religious choices. That's pretty much it.

  • @assassin186 well it made him a better person so it might not be that bad..he says that jehova witness shit is cult and brainwashing shit, so im not sure his christian views are that bad, because he obviously hates and feels sorry for jehova witness when he talks about his family being jehov witnesses and how that breaks his heart

  • @assassin186 To me God is what keeps me in balance, what gives me just a pre-set choice of living but I am not heavily in it, I realize how many are brainwashed, and ignorant they will judge a person more than anyone else other people won't care but they do pointing out, "There bad, there gonna burn in hell blah blah." Total bull!

  • "That funky music" jajaj

  • man I love megadeth

    and dave? dave is zeus man!

  • brian cobern, u see, u can change also. u don't have to live like u do. u r a good person. get daves book, read it and let him be an inspiration 2 u.

    please, if any1 that reads this and knows brian, please give this a thumbs up. tell brian how much u care.

  • Excellent

  • Damn, Mustaine's wife is HOT! :P

  • @Crimsonn21 I think she is even hotter than Kirk's wife.
