The Gauntlet recently posted their list of the ‘Top 10 Rivalries Involving Dave Mustaine’. I think it’s worth a few laughs. The guy is pretty ridiculous…not to mention a notorious drama queen.

It also reminded me of an issue between him and Greek powerhouse black metallers Rotting Christ (which gets a mention after the Top 10 picked by The Gauntlet):

From enWikipedia:
…[Rotting Christ] also have had to cancel some shows, most recently in May 2005, when Megadeth frontman Dave Mustaine refused to play at a Greek concert if Rotting Christ were on the bill. In response to their forced cancellation, [Sakis Tolis, vocals&guitar] noted:

“I didn’t expect something like that from Dave Mustaine, because, you know, he’s supposed to be metal — you know, ‘metal band,’ all metal … I just feel sorry for him and for every new Christian with new ideas, because we think Christianity is the worst thing to happen in human history. This is a well-organized trick in order to control society, so when I see someone that’s very much Christian, that’s full of the system, I feel very sorry for him because he’s not free.”
