Ex-MEGADETH Drummer NICK MENZA Claims DAVE MUSTAINE 'Blew Him Off' At NAMM

Ex-MEGADETH drummer Nick Menza claims that he attempted to reconnect with his former bandmate, MEGADETH leader Dave Mustaine, at this past weekend's NAMM (National Association Of Music Merchants) show in Anaheim, California, only to be brushed off and told to "go away."

Menza, who was a member of MEGADETH from 1989 to 1998 and appeared on four of the band's studio albums, wrote on his Facebook page earlier today: "I had a blast at NAMM hanging with fans and old friends I also made a major mistake for trying to saying hello to Dave Mustaine at the Dean booth, [which] he totally blew me off and wouldn't even look at me then had his hired goons / bodyguard tell me go away, pretty lame! I'm over it and life goes on!!!"

He added: "I don't hate Dave nor was I trying to get back in the band. [I just wanted to say a] friendly hello, that's all. Nothing more nothing less!

"I have so many other things going on right now that even if Dave asked me back in the band, I would have to turn down the offer."

Asked last September by Argentinean rock journalist Lucas H. Gordon if there is a possibility of him ever doing anything with MEGADETH again, Menza said: "You never know what can happen in the future. It's, like, I'm open to whatever. I would never say, 'I'll never join MEGADETH back up again.' But it's really up to Mustaine. I put the ball in his court."

Following the reissue of the entire MEGADETH catalog, Menza was invited to reunite with the band in 2004. Days after a reunion was announced, Menza was fired after rehearsals and replaced with Shawn Drover. Mustaine said that this was because Nick "just wasn't prepared."

Menza has been writing, recording and producing constantly but only releasing sporadic singles for years. That will all change when he opens the floodgates with the upcoming release of his memoir, "Nick Menza: Megalife", by acclaimed writer J. Marshall Craig.

"MEGADETH was a big part of my story," Menza said, "but it was just one part. Jeff [Craig] has got me to talk about it all!"

Menza is currently negotiating a publishing deal for the book, which was written over the past 18 months. It features rare and never-before-seen photos of Menza with every band he's ever been in, including, of course, MEGADETH.

"It's a memoir of music," writer Craig said. "But a lot more. It's a book about chasing the ultimate gig, the ultimate drum setup, the ultimate sound and, it will come as no surprise to Nick's fans, the ultimate aliens, government conspiracies and anything else his muse sees fit to lay across his path."

Menza's first performance was at the age of two on stage at the Montreux Jazz Festival when legendary jazz percussionist Jack DeJohnette (Miles Davis, Sonny Rollins, Joe Henderson) placed Nick on his kit. Thirty years later, he was stepping out on stage in front of thousands of screaming fans every night.

Menza, son of legendary jazz saxophonist Don Menza, was at the top of his game when MEGADETH started a world tour in support of its album, "Cryptic Writings", but began to suffer knee problems and escalating pain. Doctors diagnosed him with a tumor. Surgery waylaid the drummer briefly, but he was relieved to learn the tumor was benign and was eager to rejoin his bandmates, who had continued their tour with a replacement drummer. But deteriorating relations within the band exploded and Menza was replaced permanently.

"Nick Menza: Megalife", by J. Marshall Craig, is due in stores, in Kindle and eBook versions, later in the year.

"если Dave предложил бы мне вернуться в группу, я бы отклонил это предложение"
Лжец.

Лайфсталкер: +
deutschmeiz почему ты так говоришь? ты ж его лично не знаешь, если я не ошибаюсь. Ты уверен, что менца правду говорит и все в точности, как есть? и уверен, что, если и говорит правду, то у дэйва не было причин так поступить?
И еще, ребят, подскажите, как писать личные сообщения

Мастэйн не подарок,да....даже мудак,но гениальный мудак и он - Megadeth !!! Менза думаю лукавит,но и за Мастэйном не "заржавеет".Если послал - думаю так надо было.Мастэйн стал мудрее с годами и попусту сейчас словами не кидается.
А личные сообщения - в личку,что тут непонятного

Даже когда Менза был в составе megadeth, Мастейн его постоянно называл лжецом

Датчшмиц - да причем здесь группа, я имею в виду то, что в этом бизнесе столько интрижек и показухи что все может переворачиваться с ног на голову. А ты не предполагал что эти музыканты могли попросту заслуживать такого отношения к себе? Мне конечно плевать что ты про него говоришь, я тоже люблю его музыку, но в целом мне все равно что про него лично говорят. Мне просто интересно откуда такая уверенность.

На форуме пофлуди. Тему, там, создай.

Мэд алис, пожалуйста, объясните, как писать лс. Извините за оффтоп.

Макс лучше бы помог разобраться чем ехидничать.

MAX DE SADE

Так я и не ехидничаю: надо сколько-то постов (то ли 10, то ли 30) оставить на форуме, чтобы открылась функция лички).

Да ладно:) я не понял:) ты имеешь в виду комментариев пооставлять в новостях или нет? Я просто не разбираюсь.
