Megadeth's Dave Mustaine Signs 11-Year-Old's Guitar While in Brookfield

The 11-year-old is also the lead guitarist and vocalist of a youth rock band in Chicago.

A young artist stopped by the Brookfield Guitar Center on Friday to visit with thrash-metal icon Dave Mustaine — front man of Megadeth for 30 years.

The 11-year-old boy, Vince Minogue, is the lead guitarist and vocalist of Wireless Soul — a youth rock band in Chicago. Minogue had his guitar signed by Mustaine.

"Geez, the guitar's bigger than you are," Mustaine said as he took the guitar from the boy in the video posted by YouTube user WirelessSoulRocks.

Before leaving, the boy handed Mustaine a copy of his band's CD.
