Dave Mustaine "that's the worst version of ‘Master of Puppets’ I’ve ever heard in my life!”

Megadeth accepted their award for ‘Best Metal Performance‘ at the 59th annual Grammys recently .. see acceptance speech in the link below; they won for their track “Dystopia” at the pre-awards show ..

When Megadeth went to accpet the awar the house band played a brutal rendition of Metallica‘s “Master Of Puppets” as Megadeth walked down the aisle to make their acceptance speech... Mustaine has now commented when he was on Radio.com about the event stating:

“You know what? I didn’t even notice it. It just sounded like some music in the background. The funny thing is that when I went back and listened to my acceptance speech, and I heard the song, I was like, “Wow!”

Everyone was asking me, “What about the Metallica thing?” And I said, “I didn’t hear it, I just saw it.”

“How could you not have heard it?” I didn’t know what they were talking about. I thought that they were talking about Metallica’s performance. Because we split [after the pre-televised awards]. By the time they did their thing with Lady Gaga, we were across the street eating dinner.

So I went back and listened to my acceptance speech and I went, “Wow!” I didn’t mind them playing it at all, it’s a house band, and they’re doing cover songs. They were probably saying, “We don’t know any Megadeth songs, how about if we do a Metallica song?”

But when I went back and listened to it, I was like, “Oh my God, that’s the worst version of ‘Master of Puppets’ I’ve ever heard in my life!”
