Ellefson Said "Sorry" And Mustaine Said "I Forgive You"

Apparently David Ellefson has rejoined MEGADETH after a 8 year hiatus.

After all the drama the two Daves had over the years, it seems like they are back on good terms and actually look forward to working together.

In a recent interview with WENN (World Entertainment News Network) Dave Mustaine's ego had the following to say about Ellefson's return to the fold:

"We had dinner and he said, 'Sorry,' and I said, 'I forgive you.' We've got that history. He's the best bass player for Megadeth and he's been there since the beginning. The time without him was difficult for me. He was my partner and one of my best friends.

"I asked him to forgive me too, and that's really important too because I realised that I had made a lot of mistakes in my leadership. I was a kid when we met and, granted, I was an adult when we parted ways, but I made a lot of mistakes along the way that affected him. We're still working through all this stuff and talking about the future.


"I did a lot of things that were mistakes, but I never intentionally screwed Dave. I have always loved him and always wanted to protect him. In fact, I think that is the beauty of why we're even able to do this because he knows my intentions. He also knows my desire to clear stuff up. If something had happened I can tell you right now it was unintentional and my heart is open to making everything right."


And now Mustaine is keen to get the old Dave and Dave partnership up and running again: "There were a lot of times I'm sure where I was close to death... and Dave helped keep me alive.

"In the old days we lived together, we were homeless together on the street. There was a time some guy was gonna kick Dave's a** and I have multiple black belts, so I told the guy to leave Dave alone and of course he didn't, and so I beat the s**t out of him. That's the Dave and Dave that I know; he's my little brother and I'll defend him no matter what. "If there's something that happened to him, especially if it's by my hand, I want to clear it up. I think we're in a really great place right now.

We've come to a level playing field and are open to talking about stuff.""We had dinner and he said, 'Sorry,' and I said, 'I forgive you.' We've got that history.
