David Ellefson was fired from Megadeth in May 2021, but does the bassist miss being in the band?

Ellefson told ‘The Metal Voice,’ “Of course. I mean, look, it’s my band too. I helped start it. But let me be clear. There are things about it, of course, that I miss — the fans, the performances, the shows. And I enjoy the touring.”

He added, “ … but Megadeth was not always a big gig. We started where everybody else starts; it was small gigs. So I’ve known it from the bottom to the top and everything in between. But, honestly, as the tides turn and as things go, I’m super happy and very content with everything I’m doing now.”
