I would love for Chris Broderick to play 7s while he's in Megadeth. Mustaine should let him.

Check out the videos earlier in the thread ;p

What I don't get is, nearly everybody here agrees that Chris is amazing, he's from an other world, he's the best etc. and also Dave is a sell-out who is useless. Then why did the awesome, amazing ,truly incredible guitar player Chris chose playing with Megadeth? Maybe he doesn't have that great understanding of yours huh?

I like Chris' playing, no need to argue about it, he's incredibly technical & versatile but I don't think he'll be able to write as good as Marty , Poland or Pitrelli I didn't like Glen's solos and it seems to me that I won't like Chris' solos either (if he ever records with Megadeth) I listened to some Jag Panzer stuff and they don't have anything special IMO. Writing and playing are 2 completely different things and considering that Megadeth is musically the upmost point Chris can go IMO

Now you can bash me

Oh, I understand exactly why Chris is playing with Megadeth. He's getting paid, and getting exposure - for him, it's a no-lose situation.

You really think Marty wrote anything? Chris? Al? (although Al does have some writing skills, and Chirs does, too. Marty, well, my opinion on his writing is well-know.)

Dave writes the music for Megadeth. Period.

I'd also take ANY Panzer album with Chris on it over any post-RIP Megadeth album, but that's just me.

So you mean he used to play with "better" bands for free then

I was speaking solowise.

Besides Marty DID write a couple songs, and contributed lots more. Those part of Trust that Chris & Dave are playing on that video was written by Marty as the closest example

Finally, I don't think any Jag-Panzer album is even close to Youthanasia or Cryptic Writings. But I know most people (metal music listeners) would think it's not as good if it's not as metal

No, for less money.

No, I just don't think it's as good. Not being "as metal" doesn't mean jack - I just think Dave hasn't written but 2-3 good songs since RIP.

make peace and look at these pictures from Sthlm a couple of days ago (and notice how many picks Dave has manage to stick onto his mic stand):






totally unrelated but full of wub
