ANNOUNCE NEW TOUR DATES FOR RUST IN PEACE
20th ANNIVERSARY TOUR
BAND TO PERFORM LANDMARK ALBUM IN ITS ENTIRETY
TO HIT THE ROAD WITH TESTAMENT AND EXODUS
BEGINNING MARCH 1
New York, NY: The mighty Megadeth will join forces with Testament and Exodus for a month-long jaunt that will find these thrash titans crisscrossing the nation on the ‘Rust in Peace’ 20th anniversary tour. These will be incredibly special shows that will delight Megadeth fans, as the band will be playing their landmark, genre-defining album, 1990’s Rust in Peace, in its entirety, in addition to other Megadeth set list favorites.
Megadeth’s latest, ENDGAME, was released in September 2009 and received some of the highest critical accolades of the band’s career. The band performed on Late Night With Jimmy Fallon and was nominated for yet another Grammy – the eight nomination of their storied career- for “Head Crusher.” Megadeth also enjoyed heaps of praise in the press, from outlets as varied as New York to Revolver to VH1’s “That Metal Show” to PopMatters. With ENDGAME, Megadeth have once again ascended to the top of the metal world.

Why didn't he do an anniversary tour for "So Far, So Good... So What!"?
It is my ardent wish to someday start SHITHEAD: A tribute to scumbag era Megadeth. We'll cover only Killing, Peace Sells, and SFSGSW tracks exclusively.
Qualifications to join:
1) Anyone who is sxe cannot and would not want to be involved in this
2) Must have at least 6 + years of alcoholism under your belt
3) Enjoying opiates and/or cocaine isn't necessarily a requisite
4) Forget about #3, it totally is
5) Must have an unhealthy interest in nuclear devastation's
6) If you pull over for cops, don't even waste my time

Fix'd.
Dave needs that pretty boy Jeff Young back. Literally the yang to his yin. It would also help if he resumes mainlining heroin and painting the devil on the wall.
[Jan 26,2010 2:38pm - Free Tibet ""]
Hi my name is dreadkill and I think katatonia is a better band than megadeth in every way shape and form.
[Jan 26,2010 2:48pm - dreadkill ""]
hahahahahahaha, great post

whoremastery, you're in.
[Jan 26,2010 6:19pm - whoremastery ""]
cool!
[Jan 27,2010 9:13am - AndrewBastard ""]
I for one fucking LOVE Rust in Peace. As a whole it's easily one of the best thrashing albums ever. I'd like to see tracks off of So Far So Good too but Peace Sells is just OK IMO...
[Jan 27,2010 9:38am - C.dEAd ""]
I don't think I told anyone and I forgot who was there, but Dave M.'s sister was in #212 a few weeks ago. I told her "I wish my two friends were here to chew your ear off" and "I wish I was a fan so I could be impressed". Good times.

and how cute is that cat?
[Jan 27,2010 10:03am - C.dEAd ""]
You're just jealous. Also, she was pretty hot.
[Jan 27,2010 10:12am - MikeofdecrepitudE ""]
I might be a tad jealous if her name was actually Dave and she wrote all of those glorious riffs.
[Jan 27,2010 10:18am - sinistas ""]
I'm pretty sure this is it for dates, unfortunately. I'm seriously considering hitting the Scranton date.
[Jan 27,2010 10:54am - AndrewBastard ""]
Jay, am I missing the joke here? Explain...
[Jan 27,2010 11:10am - C.dEAd ""]
AndrewBastard said:Jay, am I missing the joke here? Explain...
No joke, I am totally serious. I forgot who was with me (Slar or Ross maybe?), but Sevon (you know him right? Worked at The Church for awhile. Known him since I was 14) brought her to #212 when we met up after the Model closed. I just totally spaced on telling anyone.
[Jan 27,2010 11:27am - MikeofdecrepitudE ""]
For the record, this all occurred during REM sleep. The line between dreams and reality are starting to blur.

[Jan 27,2010 11:37am - AndrewBastard ""]
Yeah, WTF? Ross would have told me and Slar would have been slarring about it non stop if he was there...
are you sure you didnt smoke crack with you new friends that night?
and, yes, I know Savon. He's good people.
[Jan 27,2010 11:40am - MikeofdecrepitudE ""]
Dude, she looks like Bette Midler with a decent rack.
[Jan 27,2010 11:40am - C.dEAd ""]
Hahaha, I fucking swear it. Ask Savon next time you see him. I just cannot remember for the life of me who was there besides me and Savon.
[Jan 27,2010 11:48am - AndrewBastard ""]
That pic is of the chick from Nashville Pussy...

Jay is that pic the same chick that was in our room?
[Jan 27,2010 12:08pm - C.dEAd ""]
no no no, I was just looking for an awkward male/female picture. This shit is getting weird maaaaaaan.
[Jan 27,2010 12:47pm - sinistas ""]
It should be noted that Mustaine has had a stalker claiming to be his sister for a while now...
[Jan 27,2010 12:52pm - C.dEAd ""]
From what I can barely remember, she kinda did look like him, being ginger and all. She was also WAY younger.
[Jan 27,2010 3:40pm - AndrewBastard ""]
I call bull shit.
[Jan 31,2010 9:30pm - foghorn ""]
I think I'm gonna go to the Buffalo show. Wtf, I could have walked, terribly drunk, from some alley in Lowell to the show on the 14th.

New Email:
"The American Carnage Tour will mark the first time that Slayer, Megadeth and Testament will have toured the U.S. together since 1991's epic "Clash of the Titans" tour, making this truly a "must-see" event.
Slayer recently announced the rescheduling of its headline tour in the UK and Europe, and Megadeth and Testament are currently on tour together playing U.S. cities that will not be on the American Carnage itinerary. "
Dates are announced too. It says they're playing the Tsongas Arena in Boston, MA. Dumbasses.

I happened to record audio of the entire set for both Megadeth and Testament at the Buffalo show.
You can download the show here and help yourself to bootlegs from other shows if you like - http://www.mediafire.com/?sharekey=3fb60c2...8811780b78b8f0b5a3e4da018f8c462ba45

Ellefson is doing this tour.
[Mar 17,2010 12:29am - Josh Cunt ""]
I noticed there are no Ne/NY dates but then I remembered I saw the actual Rust in Peace tour and stopped caring.
[Jun 4,2010 9:46am - Foghorn ""]
Dude, I just saw this, that's fuckin tits! Thanks man.
