[DaveMustaine]

YES!!!!!YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!YES!!!!!!!!
OH MAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



Yeah....this is like the best news ever for all rock/metal fans. :D

Dave Mustaine has issued a short post about the confirmation for SINGAPORE. See below!!!




"I have flown through the Singapore Airport twice and both times, I would have given anything to have a guitar and just drive in a taxi to the first TV or Radio station I could find and start jamming!!! I am excited to finally make it to such a beautiful and mysterious land. I can't wait to meet the people, the fans, the culture, and take a piece of you back with me and leave a piece of me with you." - DAVE MUSTAINE

[Cloudsky]

Btw, who's in the lineup now? Is it same line up with "The System Has failed" with the ex-white lion bassist? Haven't got their new album yet, gotta get it real soon :D

[icyhell]

lol @ mysterious land

[MaCcA[7]]

CONFIRM GOING!!!!!!!!!!!!
but any idea y they dun segment the tix?????

lol

[DaveMustaine]

Btw, who's in the lineup now? Is it same line up with "The System Has failed" with the ex-white lion bassist? Haven't got their new album yet, gotta get it real soon :D


"The System Has Failed" studio lineup consist:

Dave Mustaine
Chris Poland (ex-megadeth guitarist)
Jimmy Lee Sloas (bass sessionist)
Vinnie Colaiuta (great drum sessionist)

However, the touring lineup:

Dave Mustaine
Glen Drover (guitarist)
James MacDonough (bassist from Iced Earth)
Shawn Drover (drummer, Glen's bro)


Fast forward to United Abominations, there is 1 change in the lineup. James LoMenzo (bassist, ex-White Lion & ex-Black Label Society) replaces James MacDonough.

United Abominations album is awesome, man. Go grab it!! :D

[MaCcA[7]]

so James LoMenzo is not coming to Singapore?

[DaveMustaine]

lol @ mysterious land


']CONFIRM GOING!!!!!!!!!!!!

We will show Dave & gang how mysterious Singapore can be. ;)

MaCcA, i think the venue, Fort Canning Park is free standing, so thats why they dont segment the tix. 1 thing for sure, im definitely gng there early to be at the front.

Yes, James LoMenzo is comin' as he is now the bassist for Megadeth and he is involved in recording MEGADETH's latest album, United Abominations.


:s16: MEGADETH World Tour 2007 Lineup: :s16:

Dave Mustaine (vocal, rhythm & lead guitar)
Glen Drover (lead guitar)
James LoMenzo (bass)
Shawn Drover (drums)

[Note: this lineup also recorded the latest MEGADETH's phenomenal album, United Abominations!!!]

[MaCcA[7]]

cos i rem when i went for slipknot they did segment it ^^
so i could buy the front area tix hah

[kayel]

I was a huge fan (started in my teens 18 years ago?) and never thought of seeing them perform live!

Now not such a big fan of their newer stuffs but still listening to their older songs. Still, I'm definitely going for this.

Problem is I have no one to go with. Anyone wanna join me?

PS: The last major metal concert I watched was Metallica in 1992/3. The day after I had such a sprained neck from all that headbanging... Couldn't concentrate on my JC lessons...

[InnocentBlood]

great news - a friend of mine is part of the crew working for the H & H show so i hope to score tix at discounted prices. hell even if i don't get discounted prices, i'll still pay full fare to see these 2 bands play :)

Wonder will there be any backstage pass? coz im part of the Megadeth Fanclub, hope there will be backstage passes for Fanclub members in SG. :P

[DizzyG]

yeah...at least we dont see "Paul Twohill" wannabes aka Emo Useless Kids lurking around in MEGADETH concert. Seeing him with that stoopid hairdo & eyeliner makeup just made me wanna roll my eyes & sigh...whether he will be anything but useful to the society. :)

Guess there will be lots of 20s & 30s attending Megadeth concert. Tats good enuff. :D

[kayel]

JUST BOUGHT MY TICKET! I'm gonna collect the ticket later at CCK's Sistic agent. Paid $87.20 for it online from the link above - $85 for the ticket, $2 for booking fee and $0.20 collection fee.

Trouble is, I will most probably go alone. Can't bring my wife and daughter along, can I? :o

[daveaha]

I'm sure people in 20s (maybe late) and 30s will dominate the crowd... nowadays youngsters will listen more to Linkin park kind of music...

My all time fav Deth song is "Tornado of Souls". Hope they play it !

[kayel]

I'm sure they'll be playing some of the major hits like Hangar 18, Tornado, Holy Wars, Peace Sells etc. Can't wait to re-live my teenhood.

Anyway just called one of my former school mates who used to be into death metal etc and asked whether he wanted to join me. Instead he asked "You're still into these things ah? Repent repent!"

tats fast...i will be booking my tickets today after work, cos my office, cannot surf SISTIC website leh, kenna block.

Tornado Of Souls will be played...confirm + chop. hehe... :D All the fans here wanna see how Glen Drover will breeze through 1 of the most difficult guitar solo in the world.

Hey kayel, Wah....yur schoolmate will be regretting for life if he choose not to go to Megadeth concert. :P

Btw, have u check out Megadeth's United Abominations & The System Has Failed album? They r rock solid, as good as the old albums, i would say.

[Cloudsky]

Is this United abominations tour?

I have ALL their albums, including the first pressing of the Killing Is My Business... CD. But I beg to differ wrt UA and TSHF being as good as the old albums. Rust in Piece was their best ever masterpiece (Holy Wars, anyone?), followed by Peace Sells, while the rest were good but not great albums. Somehow Megadeth became less aggressive in their newer albums and the song arrangements were not as "jazzy" as those in their earlier work.

As for me I'll be looking forward to "In My Darkest Hour". That song really brings back a lot of memories of my early teen years.

[daveaha]

I got my ticket too ! Really looking forward for the concert...

Myself got most of Deth album too, up to Cryptic writings. My favourite is definitely the Rust In Peace, and following closely, Countdown to Extc.

I love to play Tornado of Souls guitar too... so energetic.... too bad I hadn't got time to pick my guitar up to play again in recent times... rusty :s12:

[spincrass]

first formula 1 then now megadeth... i love singapore! im a megadeth fan for two decades now! i am coming too! see you there guys!!!!!! :s12:

Damn....u beat me to it in getting the MEGA-Ticket. I hate you. :D hehe...:P

For me, i know that RUST IN PEACE is 1 great masterpiece that stands on its own. However, Megadeth will never want to pigeon-hole themselves playing the same style again & again. Think SLAYER. I already start to find SLAYER's later albums getting more & more boring, after playing the same style repeatedly.

Yep, agree with you that newer albums are less "jazzy"....probably because all the revolving members of MEGADETH throughout the history brought something unique to MEGADETH sound. Chris Poland & Gar Samuelson are great jazz musician. Gar Samuelson unorthodox drumming make Peace Sells & Killing is My Business albums very jazzy.

For me, i love the fact that every album has something special to offer, showing their versatility. Songs like The Scorpion from TSHF, and United Abomination title track are just so cool. Its like the metal rage is all back in me again when i listen to the songs. :D

I think its the guitars that made it sound less aggressive. I find UA quite trashy, almost like late 80s Megadeth.

Rust in Piece, like Metallica's Master of Puppets are masterpieces. Very unlikely that their subsequent albums will be better. Unless they're Iron Maiden. =:p Somehow, I think their Piece of Mind, 7th son and Fear of the Dark albums are as good as Number of the Beast.

ohh..got e live cd as well? hmmm...
i got e dvd liao. :)

on a side note...any minute chance of u having a close resemblance to mustaine himself? or juz a nick? so tat we can identify u there easily..:o

anw...frm ur exp when watchin' megadeth live in oz back then...how was dave's interaction wif e crowd?
juz seems to me tat after watching them live on dvd..they dun do much interaction..as compared wif hetfield. cos wat ive seen so far..is songs after songs after songs.
wud be nice tho if they wud smhw be more interactive.


frgv me for e comparison tho.
juz my harmless thot.

[daveaha]

Good stuffs.. I watched She Wolf when Deth performed live, and the solo is jaw dropping !

HWZ Deth fans, at the concert day, want to meet up first ? I'll be there around 6.30 pm I think... just nice, after office hours...

[daveaha]

Very interesting fact, from Wiki :

Shawn (Drover) also plays guitar. He was playing guitar during Megadeth's "Blackmail The Universe Tour" in Kawasaki, Japan (April 3, 2005). Shawn and his brother Glen Drover switched instruments playing "Paranoid" and the second half of "Peace Sells". Glen sat at the drums, and Shawn played the guitar.


I'd love to see this one :)

[deathan9el]

dunno if can go there wear metallica tee or not. :crazy:

Me looking like Mr. Dave Mustaine? I will go dye my hair blonde 1st before the concert.....haha...:D....Well, i guess we will get to bump into each other at the concert, so lets see.... ;)

Ok, now back to the THAT ONE NIGHT DVD, the argentina fans confirmed that Dave did tok to them on afew occasions & the most famous one was when Dave announced MEGADETH will continue. I was so rooting to see that scene, but alas, the director cut out tat video footage. :(

When i 1st saw MEGADETH back in 2005 in Melbourne, Australia, Dave will blast the 1st 4 songs, before greeting the crowd....then blast afew more, then he tease the crowd that he had to choose between talking alot at the expense of playing more songs, or just shut up & play the songs.

Well...as for wearing Metallica Tee....i dunno, man....Given the negative publicity that METALLICA generated after the lacklustre efforts in LOAD, RELOAD & ST ANGER albums....Just dont go jumping up & down, pointing to your TEE & asking MEGADETH fans to see, then i guess u will be just fine. hehe....:D

[loathed]

im a huge metal fan, but i never really gave megadeth a listen X_X i like some thrash metal, mostly slayer in general. would i enjoy this gig then?

i have UA, and i found it to be good...recommend me to go?

so rare that such bands come...

[MaCcA[7]]

I'd recommend u go buy their greatest hits and give it a listen....

i'm quite sure u'd buy the ticket immediately lol....

i started listening to them thru downloaded songs (pls dun kill me hah)

BUT i went to buy their greatest hits half a year ago and there was no turning back!

I just went to buy their entire remastered & remixed albums!!!!!

7 SOLID ALBUMS!!!

And of cos i got my TIX!!!

ALL RDY FOR MEGADETH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[DizzyG]

i heard that their remastered early albums are not as good as their first pressings? heard that the vocals are chopped? correct me if i'm wrong... as i've yet to buy any of their remastered albums... still have some of their albums on cassette tape.. hahah... intending to buy their early albums soon...

oh man....if u r into Slayer, u must check out MEGADETH's early albums like Killing is My Business, and PEACE SELLS, So Far So Good So What & RUST IN PEACE. Yeah, UA is a solid album.

Like what MaCcA[7] said. There are many cool songs. Check em out or else u wont know what u r missing out. :D

Lastly....must go for this concert. It is once in a lifetime thing....it is not like those lame HK or Taiwan singers who can come to Singapore every year, and if u miss 1, u can still catch it next year. :P

The MEGADETH's Remixed & Remastered series, in fact, it is their early albums that really benefit from the remixing & remastered sound. :)

For the latter albums from COUNTDOWN TO EXTINCTION onwards, fans opinion are abit divided.....some fans like the old press ones, some like the new remixed & remastered ones. Main stark differences are the drum sound. Dave chooses to use a more natural drum sound, as compared to the more studio-processed drum sound in the original press albums. Hence, some fans are not used to such drum sound.

Regarding "Vocals were chopped". Only 3 songs were affected on the remixed & remastered album, RUST IN PEACE because Dave Mustaine couldnt find the original vocal track tapes. End up he had no choice but to re-sing the song, TAKE NO PRISONERS. He also uses a different vocal take for LUCRETIA and FIVE MAGICS. The rest were intact. Hope this clear things up abit. :D

[afbug1]

']I'd recommend u go buy their greatest hits and give it a listen....

would be better if u listened to the CD tho ^^

$20 for greatest hits which has bout 17-18 songs is really a good deal.

Megadeth songs need to be plugged into yur ear and listened to attentively to truly learn how to appreciate it ^^

youtube's sound quality will be a far cry from the recognition Megadeth deserves hah

Spend some money!!!

it's a gd investment!! :s22:

yea..i get ur point...but e ting is..
not evry1 can adapt to dave's unique voice...so to speak. :s7:
espc...those whu are not familiar to megadeth...or even to those 1st timers.

hmmm...anw im not sure if unique is e appropriate term to describe it. :o

[afbug1]

to be honest, i dont know why i cant really get into megadeth, i really like slayer though.

I'm not kidding but I'm really the opposite. I've Slayer's Reign in Blood and it doesn't really get me going. I think its just a of matter taste and preference. Anthrax too and its kinda weird that I prefer their B-Side album 'Attack of the Killer Bs' to their albums.

Death Angel, Morbid Angel, Death etc I catch no ball as well. :s13: But I like the classic Sepultra, Napalm Death, Cathedral, Helloween etc.

A greatest hits album is always a good intro to a band. Try their greatest hits album 1st.

SLASH Says DAVE MUSTAINE Is 'An All-Time Genius Heavy Metal Guitar Player' - Sep. 6, 2007


Last week, guitarist VELVET REVOLVER/ex-GUNS N' ROSES guitarist Slash was interviewed for the cover of a new Sam Ash catalog. In the interview Slash was quoted as saying, "I still think that [MEGADETH's] Dave Mustaine is an all-time genius heavy metal guitar player. He's amazing and he always picks great guitar players for his band. I don't know the name of the new one [Glen Drover] but he's really good."


Influenced by Tony MacAlpine, Al Di Meola, Randy Rhoads, Greg Howe, George Lynch, Warren DeMartini and David Gilmour, the 38-year-old Drover formed the Canadian thrash/power metal band EIDOLON with his brother Shawn Drover in 1996, releasing seven albums to date.


In 2000, Drover joined KING DIAMOND, and appeared on the "House of God" album. In 2004, Drover joined MEGADETH, bringing along his brother Shawn. Following an extensive world tour, Drover contributed to MEGADETH's latest release, "United Abominations" as the lead guitarist and co-writer on one song.

Metallica, i dont wanna try, sorry =/

im a very big maiden fan, so definitely i have heard that before :s13:

Hi guys,
How to go to Fort Canning Park?
From Dhoby Ghaut MRT stn, need to take which bus ?
And how many bus stop then can reach FC park?

Thanx.

[DaveMustaine]

Thanks man but local have? I kinda hate to order and wait for it and if can, I will to try the sizing as well.



Abt tat Four Horsemen Tee, maybe they might setup a Merchanise Store at the concert area. So just bring some cash, in case there is, u can buy the Tees u like. :)

The size is USA sizing, therefore Medium or Large will fit most S'porean sizes.

Not very similar. Slayer's RiB is somewhat darker, guitars are more distorted, like more death metal. RIP is aggression and the songs are longer. Stronger and more distinct guitar riffs and solo.

Just walk there like Dave said. If u lazy, can take 139 from Park Mall and alight at the next stop and still, u have to walk there, but a little shorter distance.

cos tat time i drop at CH stn..walk walk penin..then funan behind crossover thru FC park...took abt. 15 mins walk inside...tho i folo sm ppl heading there as well. :P

DG is a bit nearer. There used to have a underpass that lead up to FC but after the tunnel for vehicles opened, its demolished. U have to cut thru the old TGIF and SSC to get to FC. Just behind SSC is the flyover for vehicles and that is where u cut in and into FC. That is also the bus stop for bus 139.

FC is also accessible via the road beside YMCA and the road that leads to the old MPH but it will bring u to ROM instead.

SSC is Singapore Shopping Center.

i think the darker, heavier and headbang inducing stuff are what i really like about RiB. not to mention, they maintain their sense of melody.

are the songs in RIP any melodic? be it the guitars or anything.

Darker does not mean heavier. I have Cathedral's Soul Sacrifice, Sepultra's Schizophernia that features very down tuned guitars but it does not make them heavier. Its the guitar riffs that make RIP great. RIP is aggression and yes, got melodic tune/segments. :) When track 2; Hangar 18 starts, its like being hit by a wall of noise. :s13: Thats what my friends who dun like metal said.

U will impress all of us with the Hulk Hogan's tearing of the old tattered tee & replace it with MEGADETH tee. :D

Btw, here's some of my MEGADETH tee collection....In total, i have about 12 to 14 Megadeth apparels, ranging from short-sleeve tees, long-sleeve tees, jersey & bandana.


FOUR HORSEMEN, General Vic, Shark-Missile & Arsenal of Megadeth tees ;)

yes of course darker doesnt mean heavier, but i just like the darker, more evil sound of RiB. and of course, Slayer in general has always been the heaviest of the big 4 thrash bands...so yeah. i might try rust in peace though

And if u wanna give Megadeth a try.....i think the greatest hits is a better solution :s22:

daveaha, im sure yur MEGA-Collection will grow if they setup a merchanise booth at the concert. When i went to see MEGADETH for the 1st time @Melbourne, they setup a booth just outside selling Megadeth tees & CDs/DVDs. Just bring some cash as they dont accept credit card at the booth. Like fun-fair concept. hehe :D


SueDE_84, i bought all my MEGA-tees online at tat official Megadeth Merchanise online-store. If yur fren is in USA, ask yur fren to order it online too, and the USA local shipping is very cheap as compared to International Overseas shipping. U will save alot on tat if u buy in bulk like 4 to 5 tees in 1 order.


i will take another photo of all my MEGADETH tees & apparels & post it up here soon.

[kayel]

In anticipation of the Mega-concert, I've been listening to the band's earliest albums like KIMB, Peace Sells, So Far..., Rust In Peace... Countdown, etc Compared to those days, the band's newer material is a lot more accessible, melodious and simpler. Not to say that the new stuff is not good, but it shows some sort of maturity in Mustaine's songwriting...

The newer songs don't sound so raw and as thrashy as before, but are more polished yet still retain the signature riffs and solos Mustaine is famous for. Good stuff!

Anyway, I used to have a few Megadeth T-shirts, but they are now all gone. Dunno where they went. :D

[deathan9el]

dun tink there'll be much of merch tat wud be selling.
last time slipknot concert..oni one or 2 designs...smmore quite fast sold out...espc M/L sizes.

i tink shud cost abt 35 bux. a tee. :s7:

me also started listening to Megadeth's early albums in chronological order to prepare myself for "THAT ONE NIGHT: Live in Singapore for the 1st time". :D

Right on...the newer stuff like UA are just as cool. The solos in UA, Blessed Are The Dead & Play For Blood still give me the adrenalin high.... :)

Indoor stadium will be cool but make it standing area. Best if the whole concert is filmed for a DVD release. How cool will it be if you see the Megadeth DVD titled as "THAT ONE NIGHT: Live in Singapore". :P

afbug1....Yup, lets continue to spread the word with the advert pic.

[DaveMustaine]

thanx man Dave...maybe i'll ask my fren to get it for me in the States...u mean ask my fren to order it online from the official Megadeth Merchandise online store oso?


Yep, coz when yur fren order it online in the states, there is no currency exchange losses using the credit card, coz transactions is in US currency, plus u save on the shipping charges. USA local postage is cheap compared to international shipping.

Or ask yur fren to look out for those rock/metal tees shops. There r some that specializes in metal band tees apparels. May need to ask the locals there in USA.

Best if your fren is coming back to SG anytime soon, & he can bring back the tees for you. However he bears the cost of his flight ticket home to SG lah...hehe :D

i dont know why you think Metallica and Sepultura beats Slayer in being "evil" sounding. Slayer were one of the most darkest/evil sounding thrash bands back in the day, primarily due to their extensive use of the tritone/diminished fifth on the guitars. for an example, listen to "bitter peace".

but yea, music is subjective.

MEGADETH Mainman Dave Mustaine - "I Have Got To Be One Of The Luckiest Guys In The World"

Posted on Thursday, September 13, 2007 at 22:35:53 EST

MEGADETH mainman Dave Mustaine has issued the following update:

"Droogies!

I have got to be one of the luckiest guys in the world. Not only do I have a great family and a great band, staff, and crew, but to have all of the thoughtful Megadeth (and even some “you-know-who!” fans too) leaving me messages here, sending me emails and calling me at home today or on my SayNow number - (619) 717-2000 - has got to be better than any drug (even the stuff that the toxic twins in the first line-up used to get!).

I am sitting in my office, well into my 46th year of life and I can't help but think that I have got to be one of the luckiest guys in the world. Outside of our community here, until someone actually comes in and sees how we all hang out and that Megs is a way of life and not just a band that you grow tired of and move on, there are a lot of misunderstandings about how close we are for you to reach out to, as well how much fun it is to be in this thing together.

Then there was last year . . . I got on my face last Rosh Hashanah and prayed that I would have a breakout and breakthrough year, (first time I ever tried this) and my prayers were answered. On this I am sure we will all agree, we did in fact have a great year.

This year I pray for more extensive reaching tours into new and exotic territories (and some ****-holes too for posterity), and that we would all be successful in what we do, if we are doing the right things, and that we would find someone to love and be as stinking happy as I have been or better for the next year!!

And I can’t believe how enthusiastic this last week has been with the fans, the turn out, the volume of the cheering, and the unbelievably satisfied faces that I get to look into each night. it almost seems as though it gets better every night, although I know that it is impossible for the first show to have not felt as great to the audience there as last night’s was in Anaheim, or the show before that, San Francisco, or really any of the insane audiences that we have played to so far on this leg of the Tour of Duty on the Pacific Coast.

Interruption - I just got to tell Electra what kind of ice cream I want, and I wonder if you can guess what I picked? I told her, “Rocky Road” because our new miniature horse is named “Rocky” too! So I figure in a few hours from now I will be full of steak and Ice Cream, the love and hugging of my family, and all of your kind words and best wishes.

How can I not feel like I have the best friends in the world? Makes me want to break a guitar, I am so darned happy!"

MEGADETH Mainman DAVE MUSTAINE: My Best Work Is Ahead Of Me - Sep. 14, 2007

Author/journalist Joel McIver recently interviewed MEGADETH's Dave Mustaine, who is promoting the new "Warchest" box set, for Record Collector magazine. Excerpts from the chat follow:


Q: How pivotal was the 1990 Clash Of The Titans tour for MEGADETH's career?

Mustaine: "Very. I look back with great fondness at that tour, even though there were some differences of opinion between the bands, and some conflicts of personality. I look back on it as a tremendous success. I'm friends with Chuck Billy [TESTAMENT], I see him all the time. I'm not really friends with the guys in SLAYER, but we're cordial. And I see Scott Ian [ANTHRAX] all the time. Unfortunately, with what happened to ALICE IN CHAINS [i.e. Layne Staley's death] I don't see all of them, but I saw Jerry Cantrell recently. I just saw Mike Muir of SUICIDAL TENDENCIES too, and he's looking as intimidating as ever!"


Q: Will we ever see a UK Gigantour?

Mustaine: "It would be my pleasure to do something like that. I dream of taking Gigantour internationally. I feel a kinship towards the UK and I want to do everything that we do with our fans over there properly, so if we were going to do something like that we'd have to make sure we took our time and did it with the right bands in the right places with the right ticket prices. Sometimes you have to lose money in order to be conscientious of the ticket prices the fans are paying, so I've got to be able to take that risk too if we're going to keep the spirit of Gigantour alive. People like the idea of Gigantour — it sounds like a good, fun metal tour, not like the Blackened Testicles tour or something.”

MEGADETH Mainman Dave Mustaine - "I Have Got To Be One Of The Luckiest Guys In The World"

Posted on Thursday, September 13, 2007 at 22:35:53 EST

MEGADETH mainman Dave Mustaine has issued the following update:

"Droogies!

I have got to be one of the luckiest guys in the world. Not only do I have a great family and a great band, staff, and crew, but to have all of the thoughtful Megadeth (and even some “you-know-who!” fans too) leaving me messages here, sending me emails and calling me at home today or on my SayNow number - (619) 717-2000 - has got to be better than any drug (even the stuff that the toxic twins in the first line-up used to get!).

Once he sling his DEAN Flying-V guitar, he will be as pissed as the INCREDIBLE HULK. :D

Hey, DizzyG, u got 1 hell of a good sound system there. Do post your review of THAT ONE NIGHT DVD, especially the sound mixing of the DVD after u have watched it under your Klipsch system. Mine is only a normal 5.1 sound system, but all in all, the sound is pretty good.

[DizzyG]

Ot a bit......Maiden's Rock in Rio is awesome as well. U should buy it.

bought that one some years back... great concert man... i must say the south american crowd is very much on eh :s12: can we have waves of metal fans that big in fort canning? :s31:

Wah in SG quite impossible even for Maiden to achieve that. 250,000 fans attended Rock in Rio. In SG, can get 25,000 can consider very very good already. I think 2500 will be more realistic for SG! :s13:

but...when will maiden come? :s31:

ill definitely be the first to get a ticket

[afbug1]

but...when will maiden come? :s31:

ill definitely be the first to get a ticket

If I can answer you, I would have bought a ticket before you. :s13: No idea man. Maiden seem to think that their core cluster of fans are in Europe. They always tour EU. But they made it to India a few months back.....March or April. Dun think they will come soon. If they dun make it this year to early next year, then have to wait till at least 2009 as I estimate 09 will be their next album due date. 2008 will be making that album i guess.

2000-Brave New World
2003-Dance of Death
2006-A Matter of Life & Death
2009-New album!

[DaveMustaine]

Just found something really cool to share with u all. An awesome video of a fan playing MY LAST WORDS on his Jackson King V guitar which Dave Mustaine used to play during the 80s & 90s era.

Love the crazy ending solo where Dave's picking mimic something of a screaming guitar. :D And MY LAST WORDS was the special song performed during my 1st MEGADETH concert @Melbourne back in 2005. Dave dedicated the song to the Aussie. :)

twmenWYxr5E


U r not gonna believe this! A FEMALE Drummer playing A TOUT LE MONDE !!! Only gripe is she play alittle lifeless and she keep looking at the drum score. Other than that, she can keep time quite well for a gal, dont compare her to those professional male drummer. :D

5wxoLbIiTao

[daveaha]

Wow... the girl looks like she just learn how to play A Tout Le Monde. Few more practice, and she should remember the score... and eradicate the 'lifeless' play.

I love to play A Tout Le Monde rythm guitar too...

Not bad for a gal, rite. ;) Ya, she should just learn by heart & play like a rocker. Like the part where she jump off from the seat after the song ended & giggle. So cute! :D

Yeah I know u are refering to the title track. Thats why I said that its the UA tour. I'm surprised that they have not perform it live yet. Maybe they still haven figure how to perform the 'narration' part. :s13:

i emailed to pickRset's ADMIN last nite to ask them to update Singapore & Bangkok dates, so we can vote the songs to be played live.

i also hope they will play UNITED ABOMINATIONS coz its my FAV FAV FAV track from UA album!!! :) That song is just brutally awesome! Somemore, this World Tour is called the United Abominations Tour Of Duty, all the more they shld play UA.

I think they will play UA soon, coz Shawn Drover just posted this on Megadeth Forum. See below:

To give a brief synopsis of this tour leg, it has been going very well. Each show has been sold out, with band and audience having a good time. We are really hitting a groove right now, and are still doing a big of "tweaking" to make the setlist as tight as possible before we add/change a song or 2 into the list - We dont want to play something until it is 99.9999999999999% ready, but it will happen, rest assured

[DaveMustaine]

had just bought united abominations and rude awakening.... quite nice i must say...


Tats great, man. Time to start your "mega" collection. Must get the Megadeth Boxset, WARCHEST! :D

For Rude Awakening, i kinda like that lineup's Jimmy DeGrasso's drumming the most, as i find that he improvise his style on the songs & they sounded very good.

Also, Rude Awakening have all the extended solo, like in SHE-WOLF & SYMPHONY OF DESTRUCTION, + extended intro solo in songs like TRAIN OF CONSEQUENCES & TRUST. Whereas in THAT ONE NIGHT, all the songs were performed almost like in normal studio version. Still prefer RUDE AWAKENING more. U got the DVD? Must-get! :)

[doomgaze_86]

Is the Rude Awakening DVD available locally? I love that version of Wake Up Dead... It sounds really really heavy compared to other performances I've seen...

TUS6tPz4LgY

I'm really hoping they play this song next month...

[MaCcA[7]]

I'm sure they'll play wake up dead!
Been in all of their setlists so far!!!

This songs rox man!!!!!!!!!
DAVE OWNS SO HARD!!!!!!!!!!!!

and regarding the new songs..........
they promised ashes and burnt ice but haven't been played yet.......
tt makes UA even more unlikely :s22:

[afbug1]

Actually, Megadeth should have a Re-mix album instead of adding some in their re-issues. They are 1 of the few new metal bands that have remixes of their songs.

I thought that live CD in Warchest is a bit 'extra' as there is also a DVD included. I will prefer a remix CD.

As for the set-list, I sure hope UA gets played but the narration part I dunno how are they gonna perform it. Burned Ice got some wicked solos.

They normally have narration parts recorded and they play the recorded portion ^^
Just like blackmail the universe!!
so i'm sure it's possible :)

Might be a bit too rush tho.....unless they have been practicing secretly hah

[DaveMustaine]

A new update from James LoMenzo, and bumping into SLASH @ a hotel talking abt the album, United Abominations which SLASH is a big fan of.

Apparantly, Dave Mustaine & Slash r good friends & have once discussed about guest playing in each other's band. Would be so cool to see Slash guest solo in 1 of Megadeth songs. ;)

Who's having more fun then us?...You are!!!
James here, checking in from the road.

Gotta let you all know what a sensational tour this has been so far! Playing some of my old favorite haunts has really been a blast and getting to meet some of you on and around the venues has been fantastically re-affirming. From what you've been relaying to us, we're doin' right by the fans both old and new and to the Megadeth legacy. I'm so proud to be a part of this "resurgence" (the word most of you use when you describe your perception of Megadeth at large). All who have been present for our shows thus far from Alaska to last nights Milwaukee Wisconsin gig have really come full on and brought us the metal, in as much as we have tried to bring it to you making for some genuinely memorable shows. You have my humblest thanks.

My wife reminded me to share this with you so here goes... I ran into an old friend of mine in the hotel lobby in Portland a week and a half ago, Slash. We chatted a bit and then he got serious (seemingly) and said, "Thanks to Megadeth I've got to go to traffic school!". I asked, "Why?" and he explained, "I Love the new album [United Abominations], every-time I drive I've got it crankin' in my car... I've gotten two speeding tickets thanks to you guys and now I've got to go to F**kin traffic school!" Of course, I apologized and then thanked him. :D

Hey, thanks for all the write-in's on my sticky in the musicians forum, it's been great chatting bass with you and watching some of you interact, keep those posts coming! Also, thanks to some of you for the great comments on my SayNow message board, I really dig hearing from you guys, what a great opportunity to hear your voices individually and get to catch up with some of my older fans. Like Dave, I'm toying with ideas on how to make communication on SayNow more interactive and fun so stay tuned.

All my best for now,

James

HOLY WARS!!! :s12:

[DaveMustaine]

2 cool FANS posted their takes on PLAY FOR BLOOD. This is 1 of more difficult songs to play from the UNITED ABOMINATIONS album, with more than 9 solos in the song. Hope MEGADETH will play this song live in Singapore.

So who do you think is the better guitarist?


Megadeth - Play For Blood

Guitarist A, HamSolo666
gRex_xdLDFc


OR


Guitarist B, Alchohollica
uokPjPrXr_A

;)

[Strawberrific]

OMG MEGADETH!

But I'm just a short and skinny 18 year old girl, I'd get crushed if I went. XD

[icyhell]

from my experience, it'll be crushing. drink lots of water before the show and maybe go wif frens so everyone can huddle when it gets tight.

[Strawberrific]

No friends to accompany... .__.

All are mainstreamers, listen to whatever the radio plays. -_-;

[doublea]

Join the fans here......HWZ Megadeth gathering. With Metal....you are never alone! \m/ \m/

[deathan9el]

been listening to UA tis past wk...but smhw juz wun go inside my thick skull. :P
probly juz a sm of e tracks like slpwalker..washington is next..gears of war..burnt ice.

mayb im too well fed wif e classics. :o

anw..tis time round gonna take along my digicam fr pix.

same case as wif e FFAF gig at FE SQ.

NOTE: juz in case any1 whu wud go upfront...juz be prepared fr body surfing thruout...n e crushing of sweating bodies agnst each other.

my gf also going wif me + 4 more friends. Strawberrific, u wont be the only gal there. U will be surprised at the sizable legion of female fans for MEGADETH. Over at USA, the gals (probably now mums, having kids already) are still crazy over Dave Mustaine. hehe :D

Yep, like icyhell said. Drink lots of water before the concert as u will be headbangin all the way.

No matter wat, even if going alone, must also go & see MEGADETH because its ONCE IN A LIFETIME!! Miss it, u will be kicking yourself for the rest of your life. :)

oh, btw...about which guitarist is better in their PLAY FOR BLOOD cover, i personally think Guitarist A, HamSolo666 delivers the song better. Almost 100% accurate with just a slight hiccup at the ending part.

[daveaha]

Yup. This is once a lifetime (unless you're moving/travelling to the US, and willing to travel coast to coast)... so DONT MISS THIS EVENT !

Anyway, UA Album is really great. I really like it. My fav : Washington is next and You'll never walk alone...

[afbug1]

OMG MEGADETH!

But I'm just a short and skinny 18 year old girl, I'd get crushed if I went. XD

Like they said, its a once in a lifetime experience! Die die also must go. :D At least, before you get crush to death, you can say u seen Megadeth 'live'. =:p


Megadeth with Slash? Hmmm........Slash is a little too smooth I think for the Megasound.

[Strawberrific]

Oooh! How do I buy the ticket via SISTIC without a credit card? x_x;

[Cloudsky]

Just visit any sistic outlets. My buddies and I got our tics from the sistiic outlet(customer service counter) at tampines mall 3rd floor :)

track info request from experts out there....

there's this melodic outro in the That One Night and also Rude Awakening... something which sounds like a classical song for people going to war... heheh... it's at the end of the track Holy Wars... but it's not in the original Holy Wars song though....anyone knows what's the tune title?? Sounds like early instrumental Metallica stuff.. ooops... heheh

[SueDE_84]

It's "Silent Scorn". A short instrumental track from Megadeth album, The World Needs A Hero. The song has some horn arrangements. There u go. :D

Tats 1 hell of a guitar solo duel in that extended She-Wolf, with Jimmy DeGrasso's impressive drum solo smack in the middle of it. :eek:

Must get the Rude Awakening DVD as well, to see Dave Mustaine & Al Pitrelli do that guitar duel in SHE-WOLF. I also hope Dave will play this extended version with Glen Drover here in Singapore, but so far they have yet to play any extended versions with this new United Abominations lineup.

The extended Symphony Of Destruction in Rude Awakening is also damn nice! :D

[daveaha]

Tats 1 hell of a guitar solo duel in that extended She-Wolf, with Jimmy DeGrasso's impressive drum solo smack in the middle of it. :eek:

The Rude Awakening DVD's version of She Wolf is one of the best (duet) solos I've ever heard. Very melodious, perfectly tuned and aligned to each other. It's soooo cool, and it just kept on playing inside my head ! ! !

[DaveMustaine]

This was wat happened during MEGADETH concert @Hampton Beach, NH, 29th Sept 2007


"The F*cking C*nt Story" posted by a fan after the concert


There was a radio guy on stage kind of filling time between sets and was talking about how great of a show it was and that there was no way we could have had a show such as this kick ass show without the men and women over seas defending our freedom to do it and everyone f*cking nuts and cheered except for one f*cker.

Well, Megadeth came out and played a few songs and just before Gears of War the band stopped, Dave went up to the mic and was like "You know, just before I came out here there was a man on stage saying some great things about our people over seas and I heard one person in the crowd boo. Now, theres two words I don't say anymore. One starts with an "n" and I don't say that any more because thats not a nice word and the other one starts with a "c" but I am going to use it. To whoever it was that booed, you're a f*cking c*nt! They're risking their lives so you can do whatever you want here and you boo them. You're a f*cking c*nt"

After that I do believe it ended with a big middle finger to that guy. It was, in all honesty, a classic Dave moment and made the show that much memorable.

:s12:



If this happens in SG, i will be amused to see MEGADETH in the headlines in the WanBao papers (aka gossip newspaper). :D

[MaCcA[7]]

lol ttz cool!!!

not sure if u guys have seen this

traumatised me for a while haha

yep, i think that foul word is "n***er". i always like the fact that Dave uses songs as the platform to voice out his dismay at how "The System Has Failed" like the GEORGE BUSH Administration, and he will stand by the army who has sacrificed, but not the government.


Check out the headline news on NEW YORK POST!!!

http://www.nypost.com/seven/09232007/photos/ent052a.jpg

NOBODY EXPECTS subtlety from a band named Megadeth. Nor does singer-guitarist Dave Mustaine. On the band's new album, "United Abominations," Mustaine, 46, draws upon reserves of youthful fury for tunes like "Amerikhastan" and "Washington Is Next!"

23 more days to go. Cant wait too. As far as tickets sale are concerned, there will be Malaysian fans comin' because the discussion for Malaysian Date didnt materialize.

Fret not, i believe it will be a nice surprise when all of us reached Fort Canning that day. This concert is just too good to miss.

[MaCcA[7]]

just wondering what time u guys will be there?

I really wanna get in front man......mayb not first row or i'll get crushed but at least close to the front!!!

No idea how early i have to go to get in front tho.... =(

My class finishes at 3!!! maybe i'll be there at 5 or 6? :s13:

"This is a long overdue update from me and there is so much stuff to talk about! We are almost finished with this tour; getting ready to release "Warchest"; going to Thailand, Indonesia, Malaysia, South Korea, Japan, and Australia;"

why does dave always say Malaysia instead of singapore :s11:

[DaveMustaine]

MaCcA[7], Demonbecks....im working also till 5plus, so maybe i will ask for early knock-off if possible, to change into my MEGA-Gear & head down ard 6pm if possible. I also wanna "chop" a good spot there as it is free standing. :)

If only we got the MEGADETH Wristband, then all of us will wear it there so that we can identify these are the HardwareZone's MEGADETH fans, tat will be real cool! :D

Cool....now we will have some LIVERPOOL fans attending the MEGA-Gig also. The video's CGI on some parts look abit cheap especially the explosions, but all in all, i really dig all the headbanging from the 4 of 'em. They are playing their hearts out in the video. :D


Btw, some cool YOU_TUBE videos for u all. MUST SEE!!! :eek:


This guy has done it again. He's really talented in his guitar shredding. Rem i posted his MY LAST WORDS playing, now he's playing 1 of my all-time fav MEGADETH songs, LOOKING DOWN THE CROSS !!! And he play it with the furious intensity of Dave Mustaine's riffing. :eek: My FAV PART is at the 1:36min of the song....that guitar lick is just pure genius from Dave Mustaine!!!

Next, a band covering THIS WAS MY LIFE. im amused at the mop-like hair of the bassist. Damn funny. But they did a decent cover on this one.

yep, tat pix is from the new A Tout Le Monde (Set Me Free) MTV.

The Drum Kit for Megadeth has always been very impressive & "intimidating", just like Mike Portnoy's. Dave once said that he nicknamed the drum kit as "The Cage" & from the Rust In Peace lineup till now, the double-bass Drum Kit has been designed like wat u seen in the pix, with all the racks mounted & have to be fork-lifted :eek: from the transport container. :D

Wah lao pink bed sheets! Your bed? If so, how can a Megadeth fan sleep on PINK bedsheets?! A Megadeth fan must sleep in a big ammo box! With bullets and empty cartrages as bedding, rifle as bolster and a bomb as pillow!

[MaCcA[7]]

Yep, if i put all my MEGADETH CDs & DVDs collection together, i think 1 bed is not enuff to display everything. :P Notice that yellow Megadeth jersey there, tats the one which ex-bassist David Ellefson wore in Rude Awakening DVD.

Oh ya, that guy is Alfian, if im not mistaken. We will see him at the concert. He is helping to spread the word as well.

Some cool news about the WARCHEST Boxset! See below!!!



4-CD+DVD Box Set Is Armed With More Than 6 Hours of Megadeth's Best, Including 33 Previously Unreleased Audio and Video Tracks


http://www.megadeth.com/images/newsthumb/warchest.jpg


Armed with digitally remastered career-defining album cuts, soundtrack and compilation sides, unreleased live and studio performances and interview clips spanning more than 20 years, Warchest is the ultimate Megadeth compendium. Included in the trove are a full 75-minute live set from a night on the 1990 "Clash of the Titans" tour and a DVD of highlights from a 1992 stop supporting Countdown - two historical shows, both making their release debuts on Warchest . The set's custom "vac-u-form" packaging showcases a 3-D ammo belt on its front and a 36-page booklet with an essay by Ian Christe and a comprehensive discography, complemented by an array of photos and images.


Dave Mustaine says, "This is, by far, the best and most comprehensive look at all-things-Mega if you had to get a crash-course in metal! With some of the most famous, and infamous, shows and any of the fluid, or flammable, line-ups, listening to this box set when it was all done was an adrenalin surge. I have got to hand it to my past band mates, they played great for how turbulent times could get in the blink of an eye, and I absolutely love every moment of this collection."


For the majority of three decades, Megadeth has yanked heavy metal into the future - musically, lyrically, and culturally - and worked the raw soil into something desirable and dangerous. With defiance and grace, through unusual quality and intelligence, Megadeth has raised a generation on a diet of truth serum and bitter pills. Instead of being kicked to the curb for their insolence, they've been rewarded with seven Grammy nominations and five platinum and multi-platinum albums. Just shield your eyes, open the Warchest , and count the notches on Megadeth's bullet belts.

Warchest out today!

Droogies!

I just wanted to say thanks to everyone that purchased the new box set. I am "sure" by now you have discovered the whole new layer of goodies we have for you, but if you are "not sure", just "be sure" to ask. Geddit?

What, with the realtime updates from me everyday from my SayNow cellphone, and our brilliant IT staff here and at all Megadeth related sites, including Gigantour there is sure to be something that you will miss. And there is definitely something here for everyone.

I am so proud of this project; Kerrang is right – most bands do put out a box set when they are over. But we are far from over.

I just got done reviewing and editing the Gigantour 2006 DVD and making sure that there was going to be some great stuff available on CD, too for people who just want the music. Seeing all of the Gigantour spirit, and the buzz that was in the air was thrilling for me today. I can't wait to announce launch the next Gigantour for 2008 after we return from our G.2007.AUSTRALIA leg of the tour. We are looking at basically covering most of the globe with Gigantour 2008, and this is hopefully before next summer. And there will also be many various shows with just us, or not enough other metal bands to make a metal bill in some countries. SO there are those choices for you to consider too.

We do have a thrilling line-up for next year and we are going to probably have one less band so that there is a little bit more time for each group that you like to give them a fair shot at the savvy Gigantour audiences. And it would be great to have the same kind of great relationships with this next Class of Gigantour “08” line-up get along like the Gigantour 2006 bands. The camaraderie was almost unbelievable with the way that some of guys and their tech were treated by us.

Basically, we treat people the way that we want to be treated, otherwise known as the “Golden Rule”. More on that subject later. But for now, I am almost through the woods with Michael and all of the projects we are finishing up.

So, call me and tell me what you think of the collection. I will be more than happy to listen to you Droogs.

sorry if the pics posted were not good quality.. slightly slanted cos of the tablespace on my table which caused the alignment of my lcd monitor to be slightly off mark

That is cool! I hope to get the Warchest in SG. lol, I actually hope that it will be packaged as 5 seperate discs in their individual jewel case and stored in a mini ammo box. :s13: Seems like its just a normal DVD style case.

[DaveMustaine]

DizzyG, uber-COOL pixs u got there. Heard from reviews & fans who got this WARCHEST singing praises on this boxset, especially the 5th disc, DVD concert video.

Cant wait to lay my hands on this, man. I think u r indeed the 1st SINGAPOREAN who own this piece of gem. *envy* :D

Btw, just wanna share this cool pix taken during my trip to Korea last week. ;)


http://aycu27.webshots.com/image/31186/2000028072713570935_rs.jpg


All the Korean fans are anticipating for 28th Oct to come for them. :)

[DizzyG]

heheh.. thanks.. i don't think i'm the first person to get that boxset... hardcore fans down here will definitely snap the boxset the first day it gets released...

anyway... i wanna experience Holy Wars in Fort Canning!!! Check this vid from That One Night

[afbug1]

Stopped by Gramo at Capitol to see if they have Warchest. Needless to say, they've not even heard of it before. :s13: They have a small stand to promote the concert and display the albums.

New fans or those who dun have Megadeth or Iron Maiden albums, Gramophone at Capitol have some discounts. $16.95 each. They have most albums. Megadeth's RIP sold out. Some Maiden's albums like 7th son is still full price but most are $16.95 including their latest album. I think the really good deal are Maiden's live albums since they cost so much more. 30% off the price. Saw Rock in Rio, A Real Live Dead One and Donington.

Hey Dave, why you mosiac you face? So like porn star. :s13: That is a cool pic, you should rip off 1 of the posters and keep it! :s13:

[DizzyG]

yeah.. i saw Gramophone has cheap megadeth albums (the remastered ones)...but irony is that Gramophone is the official record store for the concert but their staff don't know abt the Warchest release??? WTF!!! Also, I intend to collect their vinyls (if i can find) instead cos I'm more of a vinyl person...

anyway.. their DVDs (eg That One Night) is an endangered species in SG... that is a required viewing for old and new fans out there to experience the full scale concert in a fortnight's time... so if anyone of you can get a copy out there in the shops ... PLEASE buy it IMMEDIATELY!!! Beg or borrow some money to get it but do not steal!!!

heheh.. thanks.. i don't think i'm the first person to get that boxset... hardcore fans down here will definitely snap the boxset the first day it gets released...


Stopped by Gramo at Capitol to see if they have Warchest. Needless to say, they've not even heard of it before. :s13: They have a small stand to promote the concert and display the albums.

Hey Dave, why you mosiac you face? So like porn star. That is a cool pic, you should rip off 1 of the posters and keep it!

yeah.. i saw Gramophone has cheap megadeth albums (the remastered ones)...but irony is that Gramophone is the official record store for the concert but their staff don't know abt the Warchest release??? WTF!!! Also, I intend to collect their vinyls (if i can find) instead cos I'm more of a vinyl person...

anyway.. their DVDs (eg That One Night) is an endangered species in SG... that is a required viewing for old and new fans out there to experience the full scale concert in a fortnight's time... so if anyone of you can get a copy out there in the shops ... PLEASE buy it IMMEDIATELY!!! Beg or borrow some money to get it but do not steal!!!

Singapore posters looks better :D




Hey DizzyG, I didnt know Gramophone is the official record store promoting MEGADETH. They should import in more MEGADETH CDs, man. Their range abit disappointing sometimes. Not much MEGADETH DVDs as well. I havnt been to Gramophone for quite some time, will pop by these days & hope things improve.

Yep, all fans must GRAB both THAT ONE NIGHT & RUDE AWAKENING DVDs, + WARCHEST Boxset of course. :D


Hey afbug1, if i rip off that Korean MEGADETH poster, i dont wanna end up spending "THAT ONE NIGHT" in Korean jail. haha...


doublea, yep...Singapore one better. But where can i find em?

Cool to know HMV is doing their part. Will check out HMV 1 of these days as im away in Korea last week.

hehe....Yep, tats me. This Korea trip is for holidays. :)

In fact, i actually spotted afew roadside stalls @Korea displaying "pirated" Megadeth tees. Too bad, i forgot to snap a shot for u all to see. Seems like they are also having the "metal movement" going on too, with their Korean fans rallying everyone together for the concert. Their concert will be at their Olympic Hall. :D

[SlimShadee]

Can't catch it. Away from SG.
So far all the concert stage and sound system at fort canning cannot make it.
Super cheapskate setup.
Please give review on the stage setup and sound system.

[LoneReaction]

Wah holy ****. I like their music, but never have been to a concert before.. my friends don't like this kind of stuff either..

[doublea]

Go with the guys here. Anyway nuthin wrong with going to a concert alone...all focus will be on stage...noone will care if you're alone!

[MaCcA[7]]

Never Walk Alone :s22:

[Strawberrific]

Umm... What are the stuffs to know when attending a concert like this? =P

(If I'm going, then this will be the first time I'm attending a true metal concert...)

Hey LoneReaction, like wat doublea & MaCcA[7] said, this is not to be missed. Once u missed this concert, u will never know when will MEGADETH ever come back to SG again.

And you will never walk alone on next Fri 26th @Fort Canning Park because u will see lots of metal fans there in unison. Maybe some of u may wanna meetup in groups b4hand 1st on that day.

Hey, Strawberrific........just make sure u r well-hydrated before the concert & wear something cooling but also protective enuff in case the crowd can get rowdy at times, if u r standing near the stage. Bring ear-plugs too in case it gets too MEGA-loud for ya. hehe

My 1st ever MEGADETH concert @Melbourne back in 2005....i kenna pushed out to the middle-back of the crowd, i cant even penetrate to the front, because all those big-sized Aussie fans were all jumping & fist-pumping in the air. :D

Bring some cash along too in case u wanna buy some merchanize. Keep your hp, wallet/purse & accessories secured in your clothings or bag during the concert. Tats abt all. ;)

[daveaha]

It's just one week away...

[deathan9el]

i dun expect they'd be selling merch other than tees...probly few designs n tats 'bout it.
cos so far..of all e bands tat hv perf.here til now..they sell oni tees n nthg else.

but hv tat spare cash handy..juz in case. ;)

[DaveMustaine]

1 MORE WEEK TO GO!!! All our dreams gonna come true on 26th Oct @Fort Canning Park, the moment Dave Mustaine strung his DEAN Flying V guitar string. All hell break loose on 26th Oct, man. :eek:
