Dave Ellefson seems to be very popular with the ladies on Basschat . Much more popular than me , in fact . I'm sure they will be along soon to fawn over him and his admittedly very impressive pick playing .

Here I am, a bit late to the party.
Is lovely Dave still here? :D

I can't believe bluejay hasn't turned up yet! :D

Sylvia, have you seen what they are saying about our mate Dave? :o

She's probably with Dave right now , behind your back . You know what women are like . What do you think that recent trip to the States was all about ? A bit too much for coincidence , in my book . " I don't care if you've got a comb -over , Dave , I love you and your flawless pick playing unconditionally " . Don't get too upset , though - I 've seen the way that Peter Hook is looking at you in those pictures . Don't try and tell me he didn't try and give you his phone number so he could give you some in - depth one to one "tuition " . Well , now is the time to lower your standards and give him a call . Face up to it , this whole Dave thing is going nowhere fast . A lot like Dave's hairline .

Bit gutted I had to miss Megadeth's UK dates because of work commitments, I did see them last June at the Electric Ballroom and they were very good.
Big inspiration on my wanting to start playing a bass along with Steve Harris and Cliff Burton.

Just checked, Dave is 49 this year, not surprising his hair is a bit thin. I suppose there comes a time in every metal musician's life where they have to make a decision, do I go Kerry King or Kirk Hammet?

I've heard some negative reviews of Super Collider but it's still top of my want-to-buy list.

It's not so much the thinning that bothers me. It's that it's always looked like it's made of straw and he cuts it himself.

I love Megadeth, although I lost interest after Risk (which I actually still enjoy) but I made the mistake of watching a couple of recentish interviews with Mustaine and there ain't no way they're ever getting any more money out of me.

In the world of hairdressing it's what's known as an " Arthur Scargill ".

Mustaine has always been crazy though but he could do with keeping his big mouth shut from time to time.

KB - maybe check out The system has failed or Endgame if you like Megadeth's older material.

Risk was okay but definately not what you expect from Megadeth.

Ha ha, this really made me ROFL :lol: :lol:

I'd settle for Peter Hook any day. A girl at my age can't be too fussy. ;)

Saw them in London last Thursday.

Dave E was as always excellent, Dave M slightly less so (seemed to be going through the motions a bit?).

I'm finding it harder and harder to differentiate between their later albums; they are all starting to sound the same to me.

Met Dave briefly at the first Bass Player bass day in NYC about 10 years ago: seemed like a sound bloke, very sensible and down to earth.
