MEGADETH's Dave Mustaine has issued the following update:

"Droogies!

We have finalized our South and Central American dates and there are still two more dates to add to the Killing Road. Sadly, we won't be able to make it to Columbia again this trip, but I want you to know that you are in our hearts and we fought very hard to make it work for us to come play for you, to hear your voices, and to see your smiling faces, but in the end, it just wasn't possible.

Now the fun part comes; trying to decide what songs to play for you all!

It seems that Shawn (Drover, drummer) and David (Ellefson, bassist) are picking the setlists nowadays, so I am excited to see what they are going to bring up. It's almost like a game to see if they can stump me, and thank God I have been able to keep up with them.

I can't tell you how happy I am right now with all of the chances we are getting to play around the world. It almost seems that with each new leg of the tour we are hitting a new city or even a new country. I am going to have a lot of fun learning how to say, 'yer the greatest audience in the world' in 30 different languages! Just kidding... you know I don't say that sh*t.

So, I can't help but wonder what was going on at this year's Golden Gods Awards Show. There was a lot of weirdness last year, and this year was a lot better, but I can't for the life of me figure out why this one guy, who shall remain nameless) reached over and grabbed my shoulder to say, 'Hi!' when we are total opposites and actually I have never even talked to this guy, if my memory serves me well. Oh well, more red carpet (or should I say black carpet for Revolver) shenanigans!

My good friend - a solid stand-up kinda guy - Chris Jericho did a really good job, I thought, and I am really excited to see what year three brings. Maybe my acting classes will have paid off and I can act like an award show host!

Ok, its time for me to switch to 'Daveed Moostaine' and start speaking espanol (very bad espanol via online translators).

Tengo que ir ahora. Tengo muchas reuniones en la actualidad. Voy a escribir de nuevo. Te veré más tarde.

Adios chicos!"
