Ah, Marty-Sama supaa guitaristu, sugoi! Marty-sama nihon-goga sugoi desu ka?

To be quite frank, I read that he spoke Japanese fluently and from what I saw in those clips that was no claim he couldn't back up. Which I think is very cool. I'm picking up the japanese language too from working with Japanese people and from watching anime and reading manga but I'm nowhere near as good as he is.

Oh well give me some time.

Marty is awesome. There are some good clips of him jamming in Japan on TV shows as well.

My college roomate managed Medadeth for many years(and perhaps still does)and in the spring of 1991 he put me and my(now ex)wife on the guest list to see Megadeth in Osaka.We Met both Dave and Marty backstage,and my ex(who is japanese)was really surprised at how fluently Marty spoke japanese.
