September 21, 2009, 15 years ago
MEGADETH drummer Shawn Drover and guitarist Chris Broderick have checked in with the following updates:
Shawn Drover: "We are starting to receive some chart positions for Endgame. These are the first to arrive:
Germany - #21
U.K. - #24
Australia - #11
For Canada, we are receiving word that Endgame will be a top 20 record, which of course please me greatly ( I am hoping for a single digit chart position, just as UA was - we'll see) We have to thank all of YOU who support the cause, and get out there to purchase the record (what a concept, eh??) without your support, these chart positions simply cannot happen, so we are grateful, believe me. By weeks end, we should receive a lot more information on other chart positions throughout planet earth, so as always, keep checking in here with us to get the latest scoop, etc. With all this said, keep at it, people. Your help here is proof positive that spreading the word is making a difference. So many of you here on the boards are stepping up and making a big difference. When the other chart numbers come in, you will see it for yourselves. Again, a big THANK YOU!!!"
Chris Broderick: "So I though it would be good to give a blow by blow of how the Jimmy Fallon show went. The day started out with us at the NBC building at 10:30 for load in sound check and camera blocking. This went until noon. From there Dave and I went to the Sirius and did a hour and a half long inter view with Jose Mangin for Liquid metal and Octane from 1:30 to 3pm. From there it was back to NBC to warm up and get ready to tape at 5:30. Finally show time!!!! (This was definitely a blast). One thing I wanted to note is that the stage looks much bigger on camera. Also I wanted to personally thank you guys for the support you are showing us, Endgame is doing exceptionally well."
Megadeth performed their new song 'Head Crusher' on the Thursday, September 17th edition of Late Night With Jimmy Fallon. Check out the footage below:
