March 22, 2008, 16 years ago
MEGADETH frontman Dave Mustaine has checked in with the following update:
"Droogies! What a wild tour this one ended up being for the last few weeks. Thank God we are through it, but plan on reading about some really intense moments when I get a chance to post what happened at the end of the tour. We have some killer footage too of our greetings when we arrived in India at the concert. Hell, you have prolly seen it already, but I am just getting out of the cocoon from the 12.5 hours jetlag."Go to this location for more.
