The first in six part series of webisodes documenting the making of former Megadeth Drummer Nick Menza's first ever DVD – Intense Mega Drumming can be seen below. The footage shot this past March in Seattle Washington at Uberbeatz Studios, produced and directed by Kari Pearson & Robert Bolger.
Intense Mega Drumming DVD is going to be educational, entertaining and will feature Menza's years of playing drums in Megadeth with tons of tips & tricks from his arsenal to help teach anybody out there become a better player, plus rare & unseen bonus footage from the Menza Mega Vault.
The DVD is expected to be released some time at the end of this year.
Menza joined Megadeth for the 1990 recording "Rust In Peace" and for the next ten years became associated with the bands "classic" and most profitable era.

Asked last September by Argentinean rock journalist Lucas H. Gordon if there is a possibility of him ever doing anything with Megadeth again, Menza said: "You never know what can happen in the future. It's, like, I'm open to whatever. I would never say, 'I'll never join them again. But it's really up to mainman Dave Mustaine. It's what the fans want, so I put the ball in his court.
Following the reissue of the entire Megadeth catalog, Menza was invited to reunite with the band in 2004. Days after a reunion was announced, Menza was fired after rehearsals and replaced with Shawn Drover. Mustaine said that this was because Nick just wasn't prepared!
