In a new interview with Kyle Meredith, Megadeth’s Dave Mustaine opened up about the band’s new guitarist, Teemu Mäntysaari, saying:
“God, he’s such an amazing talent. And as far as being a human is concerned, he’s a really humble guy. He’s fun to be around because he’s kind of, there’s this ‘greenness’ to him, if that’s a word, greenness. He makes it really fun because he’s gone from being in a band that was pretty well known to being in Megadeth.
”And so everything’s very new for him at this level. And for us, we get to kind of enjoy ourselves, because we sometimes forget where we’re at and then you see other people that, ‘Wow, the bread is round and so is the meat,’ that kind of s*it. And it just makes him really happy, and it just reminds you of how good you have it.”
