MEGADETH Guitarist KIKO LOUREIRO Posts Behind-The-Scenes Video From Hellfest 2016

Megadeth played at Hellfest in Clisson, France on June 19th and guitarist Kiko Loureiro documented the experience. He has checked in with the following update:

"I decided to record and show you a little bit of this journey and how evrything happens behind the scenes, including our travel, interviews to the press, warm ups, our relationship with each other and other bands at the festival, the concert itself and much more. I hope you all enjoy and share the video with your friends. Keep watching for more day to day videos from Megadeth on the road."

Checking in with a video message, Megadeth frontman Dave Mustaine recently announced the cancellation of all scheduled meet & greet sessions on the European leg of the band's Dystopia tour. The message was posted on July 2nd and can be viewed below.

Earlier this month, Mustaine was interviewed by Red Carpet News TV at the Metal Hammer Golden Gods Awards in London, England. In the video clip below, he praises the late great Lemmy Kilmister of Motörhead, and reveals "another big tour in The States for five weeks with Amon Amarth, Metal Church, Havok, and one other band we haven't announced yet. Then we're going to take time off because our guitar player (Kiko Loureiro) is having twins!"

Although exact dates and venues for the Megadeth, Amon Amarth, Metal Church, and Havok trek through The States have not yet been confirmed, it's expected to begin sometime in September, quite possibly running into October.

Check out their complete live itinerary at this location.
