After Jason Newsted's departure from Metallica, we really didn't hear much from the bassist, but now he's put together a brand new band, brand new tunes, and now has a brand new guitarist.
Mike Mushock from Staind is actually a great guy and a great conversationalist. The band sometimes gets a bad rap as sullen, but that's just a part of what they do. We had the opportunity to chat with Mike and he was pretty engaging, even though we opened with an UNINTENTIONAL bad joke.
