#203 Dave Mustaine - Megadeth Co-Founder & Frontman

And those six simple words set me on my road to a new lifestyle and a new existence because I went down the hill and I told the little pastor, I said, yeah, man, I think I want to try this. I just was up there and I said, what have I got to lose? And he goes, okay, well, let's do the sinner's prayer. And he goes, get down on your knees. And I said, nope.

we need to get on your knees to do the sinner's prayer. Nope, not doing it. Not praying on my knees. I'll say the prayer, but I'm not getting on my knees. And I did the prayer and I didn't get down on my knees. And I just couldn't bring myself to that place yet. I was not at that place yet. I mean, I prayed, I prayed all the time because I thought that was what you're supposed to do.

But the sinner's prayer What is that? I don't know if I like the sound of that. So we did it, and I told my wife, and she started laughing and said her friends knew that was going to happen. And from that point on, it was just a series of learning stuff, learning how to coexist with other people that may or may not be enlightened.

So many sayings that I learned growing up, like walking a mile in another man's shoes. You think, what the hell does that mean? And then something like that happens where your life changes. Something that's been a part of your existence every day. I was telling somebody the other day that when we lived in Silver Lake, California, David Ellison would come into my bedroom every morning.

Well, not every morning. He would come into my bedroom and he would have a mirror and he would give it to me. And we were off to the races. So it's kind of how we lived. It was just, I didn't know any better. What brought you to the pastor specifically? My arm injury.

That ended way before that. Okay. I'm pretty sure. You know, I think about it all the time. Whenever somebody pisses me off, I think, man, I'll just, no, I won't. You know, I've actually, when my sister was alive, I called her up a few times and talked to her, and she talked me out of it a few times because I was at the end of my rope, and I knew it worked, but didn't do it.

No, oppression. It was like a possession, not depression, like having a spirit on you. How so? Well, when you open up the doors to the dark, they're not going to wait to be invited in. They're coming, right? And if I believe in God, then I have to believe in the devil, right? And I believe in God. I believe in Christ. I believe in the devil. I believe they're demons. I believe they're angels.
