And the sad thing is, I have little reason to disbelieve it knowing the calibre of politicians that Russia produces and the state of political corruption in that country.

Yeah, I'd tend to take the word of a father/stepfather over the word of a politician from a cesspool system like Russia's or Korea's.

Lilker's argument that Mustaine should retire because his religion isn't in sync with the rest of metal is just flat out stupid.

I still like that he slammed him though.

Mustaine has become such a turd lately.

LOts 'o newz.
Not excited about the Cooper cd. I didnt dig his last, & prob wont care for the new one either.
Motherhead is always good. Not the best of set lists, but good none the less.
I also gotta say I agree with Lilker. Mustaine is doing (by accident or by design) the same bullshit that metal went thru with the PMRC back in the 80's. If Dave's new views dont agree with the scene, LEAVE THE SCENE!
