Things got heavy on this episode of The Five Count. We were joined for an exclusive interview with David Ellefson. David is best known as the bassist and co-founder of the band Megadeth. Known for albums like Countdown to Extinction, Peace Sells… but Who’s Buying?, Cryptic Writings, and Rust in Peace, Megadeth has been a mainstay in heavy metal for more than 30 years. During the show he discussed what it was like growing up in Minnesota, how he met Dave Mustaine and formed Megadeth, and why the band is still going strong after so many years. The Five Count knows how to rock!

During the rest of the show Ton explained how he maintains his beard and we discussed the recent rash of stabbings on the campus of Minnesota State University, Mankato. Watch your backs!
