Anyway, going off topic, Dave Mustaine owes a big debt of gratitude to Alice. Megadeth were the opening act on the "Nightmare Returns" tour, and Dave was going through a very bad time around the late 80's concerning drugs and alcohol. Alice offered some 'fatherly" advice to him which supposedly pretty much 'saved his life". Because of this, Mr. Mustaine likes to refer to Alice as his godfather. It has nothing to do with baptism or religion - more of a guardian kind of a thing. |
Yeah, he makes a point of expressing his gratitude towards Alice in his autobiography and in documentaries.
N.B Mustaine was so off his head during the video shoot for No More Mr Nice Guy that he couldn't sing and play guitar at the same time, which is why he isn't doing that in the video.
Anyway,
I watched Dust Devil the other day for the first time in years (due to someone mentioning it on here last week). I'd forgotten how odd it is, but still a highly enjoyable film and one that I'd gladly upgrade if someone decided to release it on Blu over here
