How did Metallica lead to Megadeth?

Published in Daily Trivia
In early 1982, desperate for a full time lead guitarist, Ulrich advertised in a local newspaper. Dave Mustaine responded and Ulrich and Hetfield were so impressed they asked him to join before immediately. However, shortly after arriving in New York in 1983, Ulrich and Hetfield decided that Mustaine's aggressive and disruptive behaviour (relating to his extensive alcohol and drug problems) was becoming too much to handle and he was asked to leave the band. Mustaine would go on to create the hugely-successful band Megadeth.
