Back before Dave Mustaine became a Bushbot

[Droopy]

he used to make songs like this. What the fuck makes people switch from being liberal to conservative?

Dawn Patrol

Thermal count is rising
In perpetual writhing
The primordial ooze
And the sanity they lose

Awakened in the morning
To more air pollution warnings
Still we sleepwalk off to work
While our nervous systems jerk

Pretending not to notice
How history had forebode us
With the green house in effect
Our environment was wrecked

Now I can only laugh
As I read our epitaph
We end our lives as moles
In the dark of dawn patrol

1. Dave is just a plain old asshole.

Pretty much always has been.

[Droopy]

2. That's true from what I hear

But he made some damn fine music with socially conscious lyrics back in the day.

3. Yeah, your thread triggered me to listen to "Peace Sells".

Great song.

I went to a Megadeth concert a few years ago and it confirmed to me that he is a grade A asshole. During on of the interludes someone threw a joint up on stage directly at Dave's feet. Dave picked it up and said into the mic "Fuck you, mother fucker! I don't do this shit!" Then he had security pull the guy out. The crowd started booing him and they cut the concert short.

I was pissed.

4. That's pretty shitty to throw a joint at a recovering drug addict.

But, yeah, Dave is pretty much an douche.
