Menza Takes High Road After Megadeth Frontman's Insult

(Classic Rock) Former Megadeth drummer Nick Menza has declined to lash back at Dave Mustaine over the bandleader's "rotten tooth" comment when Dave was asked about reuniting with Menza and Marty Friedman.

Mustaine recently admitted he often received pleas from fans to bring Menza and ex-guitarist Marty Friedman back into the band - but dismissed the idea by stating: "That makes as much sense as somebody saying, 'Put a rotten tooth back in your mouth.'" He added that he'd seen comments from the drummer in the press and felt they were "unfortunate."

But while Menza accepts there appears to be no chance of a reunion, he refuses to raise the temperature in the debate. He says via Facebook: "A chance to celebrate the great moments of the past, together with our fans, doesn't appear to be on the cards."

He adds: "I had my time with Dave and it was great. I don't make it a point to back my former band members and diminish the memories of our great times together." More.
