#203 Dave Mustaine - Megadeth Co-Founder & Frontman

How many siblings do you have? I have three. Debbie is three years older than me. And the other two were 15 and 18 years older than me and are both deceased. Were you close with them? Uh, the oldest one? Yeah. But after a while, because they were, um, following the guidelines of their religion, And I was supposedly a worldly person and they did what their religion calls for.

I was disfellowshipped, not officially, but basically I was not allowed to be around anybody. I couldn't come to meetings. I couldn't go to witnesses' houses and stuff like that. And I didn't care because I hated that religion.

No, I didn't like it. I'm a kid. I want to watch fucking cartoons, man. I don't want to go to church. And when they would say, okay, not only are you going to go out to church, but on the other day on the weekend, you're going to go out and knock on strangers' doors and try and sell them shit that they don't want. Right?

I mean, there's people that the houses you knock on the doors probably have the same outlook I do. I don't want to be bothered on Sunday because I'm scratching my belly in my pajamas and I'm watching, you know, college sports. So, you know, that kind of a thing, to me, it just sucked. And then having the holidays taken away, not being able to hang out with friends.

You know, you make friends in school, right? And then they say, hey, you want to come over? Oh, I can't. Why? Because my mom's nuts. Jeez. What age did that start? What age did you start getting sucked into it? I think I was seven when she started. And it went on until she moved out because I was selling pot for a living. What else does a 15-year-old have to do? Sell his ass, sell pot.

I wasn't going to sell my ass, so I sold pot. And I would go to rehearsal and I would say to my mom before she had moved out, I had a beginning of a relationship with marijuana. Sometimes I would have some and I would leave it and I would say, hey, somebody's coming by. There's something by the door. Just tell them to leave the money. I think that happened maybe like two, three times.

And then that was it. She was gone. Wow. Older sisters, Michelle, the oldest one, she actually was not one of the witnesses for a very long time. She actually went into witchcraft. That's where I learned my witchcraft from was my oldest sister, Michelle. And then she somehow got, you know, re-recruited, and she ended up being a witness again at the end.

She would talk to me, but it was kind of like an aunt kind of thing. And then my sister that was younger than her, the one that was 15 years older than me, she didn't want to have anything to do with me. She just died. And even though she was awful to me, did the right thing and paid for her to go to hospice and paid for a nurse to be with them.
