Dave Mustaine says that he has “tremendous respect for Kirk Hammett,” claiming that the METALLICA guitarist was “almost 100% accurate” in his recent assessment of the MEGADETH mainman’s relationship with his former band.
After Hammett’s comments about Mustaine were first reported by BLABBERMOUTH.NET on Saturday and picked up by other music sites the following day, Mustaine took to his Twitter to respond. He wrote: “I have tremendous respect for @KirkHammett and I appreciate his take on this. he is almost 100% accurate…almost. I wish him the best.”
