10 Artists Who Openly Dissed Their Fans
6. Dave Mustaine Calling Out Over Eager Fan
In every odd rock show, there's always that one superfan who gets a little too overeager than the rest of us. Though it's the nature of the beast to have that one really uncomfortable fan next to you, having him at the front row is probably not the best idea either. It could be a dream come true for them, and it could also be something like Dave Mustaine in Baltimore.
Midway through Megadeth's set, Mustaine starts seeing a bit too much interaction going on to his left, to which he immediately shuts down with one of his more infamous tirades. Going through any playground joke he can think of, Mustaine ends the thing with talking about this guy being the last sperm that won before going into Headcrusher shortly afterward.
As much as this might have seem deserved in the moment, the clip itself doesn't really paint Mustaine in the best light. Without the proper context, this makes Mustaine out to be the real villain of the situation, using his opportunity as the guy with the microphone to put someone on blast for no good reason. Despite having these kind of dust ups happen all the time, there aren't too many that turn you into the school bully onstage.
