If I had to bet, it's the night the band actually gets to say goodbye to the people who stuck around before the big one with the cameras.

The Farewell itself still has Chrysium, Sacred Reich, and Metal Allegiance on the bill, which means Portnoy, Skolnick, Chuck Billy, Phil Demmel, and Troy Sanders are flying to Brazil to watch the end.

Pecabu tickets carry over refunds if you want them.

And yes, I know what half of you are typing right now.

I've confirmed Dave Mustaine will be on the show in a couple weeks.

Also, the return of Chuck Billy.

Chuck Billy will be here to promote his book.

Dave Mustaine is promoting his book.

But with Dave, I will obviously dive into his music career, of course.

Tonight we got a great show.

Chuck Billy of Testament.

We've been trying to make this interview happen for the last couple of weeks.

Chuck had to cancel.

They played everything they could think of during those two hours.

What a great band they were, and I really enjoy them.

All right, we're gonna get to Chuck Billy in about five minutes.

Uh, I don't know how this got by me.

Look at the lost souls, souls are blind.

What do they have Chuck Billy in a gym? [laughs]

[laughs] I know.

I mean, that's the kind of stuff I want to see cleaned up, is the-

So I have no ill will when people do that.

You know, and then there's obviously the death gimmick with Left To Die and DTA and all that, and I, I get it, honoring Chuck's memory, but how many...

You know, they have so many different variations of it, it's just, you know, it gets a little saturated.

I ha- again, I'm friends with Terry and Rick.

Germany's Lead Injector.

Brian Coz of Melting Rot.

Chuck Billy of Testament.

He was on here for two hours.

I mean, so just I want you to hear that because I think all of us are like, I'm on the track with who? Oh, my gosh.

Even Aiming High, Chuck Billy, Gary Holt, these are my friends of the neighborhood who I grew up with.

But it's just great to be able to play.

I know we did this with Metal Allegiance.

Basically, you know, a lot of rejection, people saying that never happened.

i don't have the time or whatever just not responding but i had to say there was 95 98 of people said yes i'm honored to be part of it and what a what a great idea and and you know so that what was that

what was that process like for you wolf like how when you started did you have a like a master list of like i want these people or was it like well you asked gary holt and he's like well why don't we get chuck billy you know like it was kind of a domino effect

kind of how it was i mean we we started with the inner circle of people like michael cardelloni i knew he would probably say yes because he always said he liked playing with us when he was in except for just one tour or one year so i asked him and a few other people but then zeus and i were saying who would be good on that oh why don't i ask this and i i'm metal church there i know them and you know i and then i thought like Oh, Billy Corgan, I remember him.

Pleasure to get to repeat the same questions for two guests in the same show.

But Next week, Chuck Billy is our guest.

We had to cancel.

He had to cancel the last time he was on.

I had to cancel last week.

Actually, it was this week he was on.

I had to reschedule that because something came up, and I think I was going to get to two interviews tonight, but Chuck Billy will be on the show next week.

He's got a book coming out.
