Megadeth's Dave Mustaine Didn't Want To Repair Old Relationship with Metallica's James Hetfield was a top 10 story this week . Here is the recap: San Francisco Bay Guardian Online has a great feature with Megadeth's Dave Mustaine where they discuss his new autobiography "Mustaine: A Heavy Metal Memoir." During the interview they cover a lot of ground where Dave explains why he felt compelled to cover his troubled childhood but they also discussed Dave's troubled past with his former Metallica bandmates and how they have finally been able to lay the past to rest. Here is that part of the interview:"I saw [Metallica] over in Europe, we had dinner and it was fine. I was sitting there at the table with Lars and James, and I thought it was so great that we were together again — we're in different bands, but the fact that we as three young little guys, what we accomplished, how we changed the world. I mean honestly, you can't even listen to a television program anymore without hearing music that's [evolved from] what we created. To be able to sit there with our brethren and knowing that in this room stands the cream of the crop of American heavy metal talent, and it was such a great feeling."
"My relationship with Lars and James has been publicized a lot, so I went up to James and I said, 'I don't want to try to repair our old relationship. That would be like rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic. I want to have a new relationship with you,' and I think that's what we have now, it's great, and I'm going to see the guy when I get into town." - more on this story
