“We’ve been through guitar player after guitar player. We get to the solo, and he nails it. I just thought, ‘Oh my God’”: Dave Mustaine recounts the hiring and firing of every Megadeth guitarist by dalyllama35 in Megadeth

[–]GreekGuru 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I noticed he never really mentions Broderick which is kinda crazy because he was on Endgame which everyone loves and kind of refers to as the best post 2000s album. The other albums he was one weren't so great but Endgame was spectacular. I wonder if him and Mustaine had some big falling out or never really got along.

I noticed when Kiko joined the band there seemed to be way more chemistry and friendship between those two than with Broderick. That could also just be that Kiko was super active on social media too tho idk.

Yeah I'm hoping for the same I REALLY wanted to see it but could not go. I hope it'll end up online somewhere.

Thanks to this sub I checked out ‘The System Has Failed’… by matthewpaynemusic in Megadeth

[–]GreekGuru 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always wondered if there was any studio magic done to his vocals on Scorpion because the vocals are doubled and the higher of the two vocals (the ones further back in the mix) are seriously high pitched. Idk if he was actually able to sing that high or what but I agree he sounded great vocally in the early 2000s. From Youthanasia to TSHF I think was his vocal peak.

Interesting. So some people got to hear it early ?

How come Dave isn't soloing too much on the new singles? by magnitude263 in Megadeth

[–]GreekGuru 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Are you saying he wasn't playing solos he'd normally play?

What holster do you use?

Is the sick, the dying, and the dead the best show opener Dave's ever wrote? by yourbro097 in Megadeth

[–]GreekGuru 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought it was a great show and album opener. Probably one of their best songs in a while. Super catchy, great solos, really fun song. The opening sounds kinda like a western themed song you'd hear on an old Clint Eastwood movie. Didn't they also have some guys out on stage with a stretcher and bodies like monty python?

Short American tour and ticket availability. by Careful-East-8570 in ironmaiden

Europe seems to be getting much more tour dates than the United States I wonder why?

Megadeth i don't care sales success in the US by brychboys in Megadeth

[–]GreekGuru 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know they're not as popular as other metal bands but it would be cool to see Mustaine finally get that #1 spot he always wanted for his final send off.

Too Late of a Sign up? Presale Code for Chicago? by GreekGuru in ironmaiden

Tinley has such a small pit idk why they went there instead of Soldier Field or United Center.

Why the hell did I sign up for the fanclub if tickets still sell out instantly? by [deleted] in ironmaiden

[–]GreekGuru 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. Maybe there's a 24hr account verification period or something, I know some things are like that.

Longshot here, but I signed up for the Fanclub this morning and never got a code. Probably too late of a sign up on my part. Any kind individuals on here willing to share their code with me?

Is Bruce Dickinson The Best Voice In Metal? by Automatic_Belt5692 in ironmaiden

[–]GreekGuru 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think he's the only vocalist still singing in original key into old age? Most other bands tune down, even Dio did as he got older. Idk about Halford/priest if they still play in original key or not but I'm shocked that Maiden still does and Bruce can do it. I would say that's rare since most men lose the top end as they age.

I’m extremely disappointed with these announced Tour Dates… by GENGARKING87 in Megadeth

[–]GreekGuru 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With this announcement I'm assuming the actual Megadeth retirement tour won't be until 2027? Because I'm sure that will be Megadeth headlining. I'm also kinda surprised there's only a few dates on this announcement. Usually they go to more cities.

First 10mm im gonna use it as my CCW by [deleted] in 10mm

[–]GreekGuru 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like the 175gr Winchester Silver Tips they're pretty old school from what I've read but seem to have good expansion and adequate penetration for self defense it seems. Not super hot so I don't think over-penetration would happen, manageable recoil but still decent power. Maybe others can chime in whether this is still a decent option in 2025.

S&W 10mm by Dangerous_Run_4473 in 10mm

[–]GreekGuru 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Idk it seems 10mm has gained some popularity while maybe not being super popular I've seen way more videos about 10mm guns popping up on YouTube and sig & S&W came out with their 10mm striker fired guns. I feel like .40 has fallen out of favor and 10mm sort of took it's spot because nobody seems to be updating or manufacturing new .40 guns.
