WHEN METALLERS FALL OUT

Oh, David Mustaine, what must your evenings be like, tossing and turning and fretting that your former bassist is dragging the Megadeath name through the mud? It turns out that Mustaine now feels he has to get the law involved, filing a legal action to stop David Ellefson using the Megadeath name in adverts for musical equipment:

Mustaine said an ad in this month's issue of "Bass Player" features Ellefson holding a pedal tuner for bass guitars and includes the names of several bands he is involved with — including Megadeth.

Mustaine is seeking unspecified compensatory, punitive and exemplary damages.


Of course, we're sure it's not just greed and pettiness motivating this action - we bet he thinks it'll impress showgirls as well.
