Post some band trivia...

[Keregioz]

Yeah, Loomis is unreal. Dude played Yngwie tracks note for note when he hit 14.

That's kinda hard to believe since 14 was the age he actually started playing guitar.

What can I say... he's a natural!

Hetfield shops at Armani Exchange.

Loomis is one sick dude..

 

[slashvanyoung]

from what I know, thats not 100% accurate

It isn't?

That's kinda hard to believe since 14 was the age he actually started playing guitar.

He confirmed it in several interviews. When people ask him about that, it's almost slightly embarrassing because he doesn't want to come off as a loud-mouth.

Juts the truth.

Joey DeMaio still lives in his parents' basement.

Joey DeMaio is also a Knight of the Sovereign Military Order Of Malta - Order of Saint John of Jerusalem.

I'd be really interested to read one of these interviews if you have a link. I've read some and never heard him say that.

Dimebag was offered the job in megadeth, but declined because he wanted vinnie to join but dave wasnt into it..(could be bullshit, vague memory of reading that somewhere)

cool info. wouldn't have expected that, but makes sense.
(btw, my sentence was meant without inherent judgement)

that said:

Michael Schenker lived in a tent in a german forest (Eilenriede) for some time.

I think that was Kerry King.

Sorry, but I can't imagine Kerry playing Tornado Of Souls or Hangar 18.

I'm just telling you what I think it was. I don't see it either, which is prolly why he's in SLayer still...

 

[ronnan]

Aye, cant remeber if i read it or imagined it..haha, so im probaly wrong. Dont King and mustaine hate each other??

 

[SickBoy]

I think that was Kerry King.

Actually both him and Dimebag. Kerry even played a few gigs with Megadeth IIRC

This is correct except it wasn't that Dave wasn't into it, it was that he didn't want to get rid of Menza

 

[ronnan]

Cool, intresting stuff so far...any more??

 

[-Gavin-]

Everyone who has ever been in Alestorm thinks Pirates are stupid.

 

[Skinny Viking]

^ That just makes it funnier ... like Mille from Kreator not even really liking metal and especially thrash

The Kerry king thing, actually King was IIRC the first guitarrist megadeth had (besides Dave of course) and played a few gigs but left because Slayer was also getting big so he sticked with his own band.

That's prolly it. I knew he was involved though.
