The month long tour starts in Casper, WY on September 20th and concludes on October 16th in Camden, NJ. In addition to the tour, both Butcher Babies and Megadeth will be performing at this year's Ozzfest Meets Knotfest event, which takes place on September 24th & 25th in San Bernardino, CA.
Speaking about their enthusiasm for the upcoming tour, Butcher Babies vocalist Heidi Shepherd states, "We're incredibly honoured to join forces with some of our idols, legendary musicians and bands! Megadeth is a staple in metal music and we can't think of a better way to round out our 2016 touring schedule than with these metal gods. Who didn't grow up with a Megadeth poster glued to your wall with dreams of dreams of sharing the stage with them. Bucket list... Check!"
