On this episode, we’re joined by Bassist & Heavy Metal “Lifer” David Ellefson. Best known for his rich & illustrious history with legends Megadeth & current band Kings Of Thrash, Dave connected with us from Southern California in advance of the amazing week off Heavy Metal events taking place leading up to The NAMM 2024 Show. Dave covers off on the Kings Of Thrash performances scheduled at the Ultimate NAMM Metal Jam & the Metal Hall Of Fame gala, the Metal Allegiance 10th anniversary & Montrose Remembered concerts, plus NAMM itself in which he will be promoting the Ellefson Coffee Company & the soon to be released Nick Menza documentary, “This Was My Life”.

In the conversation, we also take a look back in time to the Summer of 1986 when Megadeth visited Rochester, NY & The House Of Guitars as a support act for King Diamond, plus he re-visits his FIRST Heavy Metal supergroup, Hail!, a band that also included Mike Portnoy, Andreas Kisser, & Tim “Ripper” Owens amongst others. Covering what felt like 40 years of Heavy Metal history in 30 minutes, Dave shares some great memories of his life in the heavy metal scene & on the road as he’s performed in pretty much every country you could imagine and then some! On a personal side of things, Dave shares some pearls of wisdom, his motto for 2024 & how he manages & balances his thriving businesses & musical career, and what’s to come down the line (hint: another book may be on the horizon).

Another example of a great, unique, conversation filled with in-depth anecdotes and disclosures found only here at Metal Mayhem ROC. Thank you for the support and remember to always KEEP IT HEAVY.
