Roadrunner Records recently caught up with MEGADETH bassist David Ellefson for a bried Year In Review interview. It is available below:


Q: What was your personal theme song this year and why?

Ellefson: "Chuck Billy (TESTAMENT frontman) throwing Chris Broderick's birthday cake from the stage into the crowd at a show in Calgary, Canada."

Q: What’s the biggest lesson you learned this year?

Ellefson: "Live in the moment because that’s where the action is."

Q: What’s the coolest thing you discovered this year?

Ellefson: "ToonTrack drum programs and Logic Express for the Mac."

Q: What’s your new year’s resolution?
