Album Review: Myles Kennedy "The Art of Letting Go"
Myles Kennedy’s career could have been defined as successful simply by virtue of the fact he was hand-selected by
December 31st 1985
As much as you wanna believe Megadeth’s Dave Mustaine hatred towards his former band Metallica, there was actually a time in 1985 when his band opened for them.
Supposedly the original lineup that night was Metallica, Exodus, Anthrax and Metal Church. Unfortunately Anthrax cancelled at the last minute so guess who stepped in to fill that void?
Did you know… Metallica performed the song “Master of Puppets” live for the first time!
Gary Holt recalls the show in an interview with Metal Hammer, saying Exodus stomped Metallica “into the dirt” and that James Hetfield joked after the show “that’s the last time you guys’ll ever support us.”
Dave Mustaine himself made the bands out to be sworn enemies. He wouldn’t even refer to Metallica by name in interviews, only ever called them his “previous band.”
I mean if you listen to mainstream media, they made both bands out to be sworn enemies.
