MEGADETH bassist
David Ellefson was asked which artist dead or alive he would like to perform or collaborate with if he got the chance. He responded (hear audio below): Probably
Eddie Van Halen. And I don t say that just because [he recently] passed. [
VAN HALEN is] a band that
MEGADETH never played with. And they were such an influential band for me. And even as a bass player,
Eddie was an influence on me. And I don t play guitar like him at all. When I play guitar, I probably play more like
Rudy Schenker [
Malcolm Young [
AC/DC] or something. I m not a lead guitar player I admit that. I just love his approach to things just kind of shoot from the hip, play from the heart.
