MUSTAINE BLASTS ULRICH OVER HALL OF FAME SNUB
DAVE MUSTAINE has blasted his former METALLICA bandmate LARS ULRICH for leaving him out of the band’s induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
Mustaine wasn’t among the Metallica members, past and present, in April’s Class of 2009, because he didn’t feature on any of the band’s albums - despite performing with them for two years.
The guitarist reveals drummer Ulrich invited him to the ceremony, but only to watch - infuriating the Megadeth frontman.
He tells Metal Hammer, âLars said⦠âIf you were on the record you got inducted, if you werenât on the record, you didnâtâ, and would I come along and hang out and watch them get inducted? It makes for the same kind of mentality as a guy watching some other guy f**k his girlfriend.
"To say that Iâm not on the record, well, Iâd say that there are 40 million fans with Megadeth and Metallica records in their collections that would say that Dave is on the Metallica records because my nameâs on there, but I guess Lars never really looked past the word âUlrichâ." The experience has made Mustaine even more determined to make it into the Hall of Fame on his own accord, adding, "Bottom line is, Iâm going to get into the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame one way or another and he canât keep me out! When I do, Iâm going to ask him to induct us and Iâm gonna give eggs to everyone in the front row!"
