MEGADETH: Budokan Preshow. MARTY FRIEDMAN reunites with the band for the first time in 23 years! 

Marty seems like a genuinely nice guy

1:20 Dave : Marty san!

Marty himself playing Tornado of Souls is too perfect. I'm glad they did this!

Mustaine - Friedman - Louireiro. What a trio of shredders, must’ve been awesome to witness these gigs.

1:56 Seeing Marty must’ve made Dave feel young again because he sounds like his younger self. Usually his voice is raspy and deep.

Its' like Marty was trapped in time and didn't grow old... that much

It's a shame Eleffson was fired and Menza has passed. Dave had that lineup for 4 albums! It was the only time we were convinced Megadeth wasn't just the Dave Mustaine band.

Marty is a legend!!!!! Such a great guy, absolutely no ego

Marty just doesnt age damn it

Everyone was so nervous being around Marty

Met Marty twice & have received cameos from him. Truly one of the nicest dudes I ever met. He even remembered meeting me in 2019. Very proud to call him an acquaintance! I hope everyone who reads this gets to meet Marty cause he’s amazing

He is the best.. I love him.

Mary was my guitar hero as a kid…was a megadeth fan since peace-sells but the Marty era turned me into a life long mega-fan..

Dave + Marty Dave + Adrian Will always be my 2 favorite duo's of all time.

Marty is very humble and a great spirit!

A super humble rockstar, even reaching God-like level! ❤❤❤❤

Watching this clip with a smile on my face

Marty is a god of guitar he is truly legendary.

Marty is way yoo wholesome for everyone else. I wish Dave had spent some more time to personally bond with him instead of being about business.

This guy wrote and played arguably the greatest guitar solo in metal history, tornado of souls, for that alone he is a deity

Marty is a great : man, guitarist, person, artist etc....

Dave has such a huge persona! he comes lurching in all calm looking like a characature of himself, fucking epic!!!!

Friedman was Megadeath's best guitarist

Back when I bought my Marty signature Jackson guitar, I had no idea who this guy was. Now, this dude is my idol😂. He just seems like a great person in so many ways.

Sweating Bullets playing in the background! 🔥

Super epic. We grew up with Marty and Megadeth

Imagine Marty walks into your gig and asks if he can jam with you but then says...as long as we don't play Tornado.

Such professionals. Salute

dude this warms my heart sooo much

Perfect Equation: Megadeth + Marty F = MegaForce \m/

This brings tears to my eyes.

Marty is a badass! So cool brother.

What's cool is that Dave who is very his own way privately like the arms crossed 24/7 kind of guy being so relaxed and giddy when Marty is around. Dave truly loves Marty as a friend and former co-worker.

I love this sooo freaking much. Thank you!!!

Drummer is legend for sure, he's right

Marty could be the nicest human being

I come back to this whenever I need to be cheered up, this reunion especially always does the trick

Marty & Kiko, humble giants 🙌

That was so noble of all of them!! The fans wanted!! They did it!!

Best lead guitarist Megadeth has ever had! Nothing against the rest but Marty was the shit!

No one plays Tornado of Souls like Marty.... Wow.

Awesome answer Kind of family reunion , class reunion....❤❤❤❤

Anyone who has seen the old VH1 "Behind The Music" about Megadeth knows that Marty's biggest letdown was not being able to play Budokan. His heart was in it. Dave overdosed and the shows were cancelled. It pretty much broke Marty's relationship with the band at the time, and Dave. Then Dave had his usually asshat moment because Marty wanted to focus on a different style of music. It eventually led to Marty being kicked out. Im glad to see him playing some shows with them again. He clearly couldnt wait for the Budokan show.

Hearing Marty interact with others is so lovely, such a genuine, adorable guy.

Dude has the strangest picking technique.

Right up there with Dimebag, Marty is my favorite guitar player

A friend and I met Megadeth briefly once during the Rust In Peace days at Tower Records in Piccadilly Circus in London. Must have been around 1992/1993. Queued for nearly 3 hours just to speak to them for a few minutes and get my Rust In Peace CD signed by Mustaine, Ellefson, Friedman and Menza (RIP). Told Marty that his solo in Tornado Of Souls was one of my top 3 favourite solos ever.... and it still is to this day. All 4 of them were nice, in the few minutes interaction we had with them. Then we saw them live at Hammersmith Odeon that night supported by Alice In Chains if memory serves. Amazing guitarist. Rust In Peace and Countdown To Extinction are still two of my favourite metal albums all these years later. 🙂

I’m glad to see from the end of this video they at least professionally recorded it!!! I was worried we would only have that shitty cell phone video!!!

The beginning of the end for Kiko! 😁

Martin has taught me English.

Nice to see him. Wish he went back to Megadeth.

Glad to see Marty to get to play with megadeth their ,they were supposed to play their years ago but I believe Dave was sick from drug abuse and had to cancel the show

So now I hear another guitar player out of Megadeth, it would have been nice to bring Marty back permanently

Megadeth is a very very very good band.

well worth the wait welcom back marty!

1:38 Marty looks at Dave thinking "Man ! Where does he find all these great musicians from? "

He seems like such a nice guy!

Friedman is so beautiful 🤩

Marty is great!❤

Marty is the man!

Love Marty !! Killer Guitarist !!

love Marty!

Marty Friedman es un tipo muy libre y el colo dave es un poco más controlado y meticuloso...que bueno que hayan hecho ésto realmente...!

I would have liked to see a longer hug between Marty and Dave.After all this time it was a short hug

Marty-san Dave-senpai!

how fu**ing cool id Marty!!

Man i tell you what i miss kiko in the band

marty is my favorite lead guitarist of megadeth 🤘

Marty doesn’t age !!! Is it moving to Japan the secret? 🤘

Haha Dirk is one of best metal drummers around --🔥soilwork🔥--

I've met him at super market. 😂 I didn't know who he was but much later on I realized he is the lead guitarist of Mega death 😂 I was freaking so rude to him. Next time I have to apologize to him. 🙏😭

MegaDave MegaMarty

The drummer is so sick

Kiko missing was a sign... I really wanted to see the return of Marty instead of yet another new guy.

My Best Band Ever

Its ashame we wont see chris poland play with dave

I love Friedman❤

Yeah!!!

Fuckin Marty can slide in anywhere and do a concert flying by the seat of his pants.

marty and jason becker are real legends

damn ilove Marty❤

He’s undergone gruelling throat surgery, and god knows how many rounds of chemo & radiotherapy he has had, cancer isn’t just a thing that you can get rid of overnight.

Martyyy-Saann

Smile on my face from pressing play

Haha. See how it goes. Hopefully you have learned the solos from Rust in Peace :)

Вот и встретились два великих композитора современности - Марти и Кико, японские и бразильские мотивы схлестнулись

3:45 only 2 in the audience? Wtf

0:40 the one that ends it all?

I don’t know why Marty’s English pronunciation is much easier to listen 😮

Brutaaaal

marty es la unica persona que la jackson kelly se le ve bien , esa guitarra fue echa practicamente para el

1:16 boss coming
