Yeah, I kinda made an ass out of myself in front of Bootsy Collins -- then a couple years later made an ass out of myself in front of Dave Mustaine... [sigh]


I wouldn't worry about Mustaine too much...he's used to "ass" by now if he owns a mirror.

Yeah, that's pretty much what I gathered from him. I think him and Lars should duke it out one day... CELEBRITY DEATHMATCH!

Yeah, what a freakin punk! What the hell did Dave Ellefson ever do to him?


Speaking of Elvis Costello -- we're getting a double dose of him on the local radio station right now!

-What's so funny 'bout peace love and understanding? and....

I think he put up with him the longest (from the very beginning)...certainly entitled to use the name in an endorsement setting!

Wow, I think DM might be the poster child for fussy guitarists...

could you imagine having to deal with that? no wonder they fired him right off the bat, with no chance to clean himself (or his attitude) up!

Dude, DO tell. I CANT WAIT to hear about that one!

So I looked up the "event" at the bar with EC. Unless I misunderstood you, it seems as though these bar brawls were not few and far between. The "big one" that was mentioned in his biography took place in a Holiday Inn in Columbus, OH. This one, he got in a fight with Stephen Stills (and consequently called him a "steel nose", hahaha) and his gang after Elvis answered a question "what did he think about America and its people?" to which he replied "we hate you. we just come here for the money. we're the original white boys and you're the colonials". Geez, can you believe? I think that this was a bar brawl that happened just before he went to New York, so maybe he had some leftover anger he needed to get rid of! hee hee!!!

My memory is umm a bit "challenged" that far back I'm afraid but I'd place the event somewhere in late October, early November 1979.
